    Great to see this place opened as a decent pub again! Phipps on tap here which is always a good choice for me. Haven't eaten here so can't review the food.

    Nice place, friendly staff, good ale selection but the meal wasn't up to much. A group of us pre ordered our meal, days in advance. We waited 45 min for it to come! My meal was tough & dry. I made them aware of this but I was refused any % off. Please improve as it is a lovely building..

    Looks really inviting from the outside and the staff and food were bith good. But inside it's pretty odd. Obviously a place to watch rugby

    Nice pub, but a little bit strange. At 8 p.m. the kitchen was closed.

    Goat Curry had more bones than meat. Flavour was good, but needed more sauce on the Rice and Peas as it was dry underneath the thin layer of sauce. Guess I got a tough deal, but wouldn't try again.

    We are attending an event, here in their snug it is the perfect place to hold any events, the landlord Phil is on hand if you need him. This is a quaint 500 year old pub, I would highly recommend their pepper steak pies. Thank you for making us feel welcome, we will definitely be back.

    Very good value for money. We popped in here for a family meal whilst passing through Wellingborough. They were in the middle of changing the menu but we are very accommodating.

    We had a lovely meal here today, 4 of us enjoyed:- 2 x Scampi, Lasagna & Sausage & Mash. The service was great, very welcoming, and the Chef came to ask if we enjoyed our meal, which was a nice touch. We would definitely recommend, and will return for sure Thank you Regards Betty

    Great pub to eat at before visiting the theatre, which is a 2 minute flat walk away. It was Steak Night (Thursday) so we all chose the steak (although there were several other options) The food was lovely and fresh, with a friendly service

    Welcome return of a proper Town Centre pub. Always 2-3 cask ales on, Phipps IPA looks to be a regular feature.
