Amazing food in lovely surroundings!
Visited for dinner on a Saturday evening. Have to say the food was amazing. The newly refurbished restaurant looks incredible and we could not fault the service. We will defiantly be going again soon!
The Bees-Knees!
A beautifully turned out modern restaurant with conversation provoking decor and design. Exceptional food and a warm, welcoming atmosphere, greatly helped by keen, friendly and attentive staff.
Fantastic Friday Night
Loving the new refurbishment, the decor is sleek and stylish, the cocktail menu has a wide variety using premium liquor and the food is lovely and well presented. Cat and her team are always so welcoming and attentive, brilliant service! Will definitely be going back soon!
Beyond Expectation
Everything was brilliant from start to finish! The new decor is bright and refreshing, the staff, attentive, friendly and very engaging. The food, wow! Not what I expected at all, very fresh, well prepared and a brilliant menu, shame the restaurant venue could not be on a bigger scale as it would definitely be filled up daily.
Great refurbished throughout but retaining its intimacy
Love the vibe, since the refurbishment, great service, great food portions and a dynamic atmosphere. Great for renunions and celebrations. No where in Northampton offers this intimate dining experience coupled with modern twist.
Excellent Afternoon Tea Birthday Celebration
Celebrated my birthday here. 38 of us had afternoon tea. Everything was very well organised in advance by Kat and I really enjoyed it and everyone said how lovely the food was.
The best pub food on the Wellingborough Rd bar none
So many nearby places to choose from but the Old House is our preferred place to go, especially when dining. I really can't think of another local pub that serves such a high standard of food. The staff are friendly and welcoming too.
Sunday Lunch
Lovely place - food very good - and staff very attentive. Full choice of wine and other drinks. Easy to book as well.
Best pub
