Reviews in Northampton

Atmosphere was lovely, staff were really friendly. Food was OK but pricy and wouldn't rave about it. However, we had a really lovely evening.

Excellent food and service!

Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Highly recommended

We're thrilled that the Coach & Horse's has opened its doors again, and whilst it's early days it looks like it's better than it has been for many years. It's always been a beautiful location with so much promise, open fires dotted where they need to be, and regularly top up with logs. Nice quality finishings with good quality everything else. The food we had was great. A nice simple menu producing great quality food properly cooked. The friendliness of everyone there was wonderful, just everyone seemed to be happy to be there. The guy that served us was great at what he did and did it's in a relaxed and welcoming way. The Coach & Horses is going to be back towards the top of our favourite places to go. Wish you all the best guys, thanks for looking after us so well, we'll be back.

Had a wonderful afternoon with boys. Beers and food by the fire. Great pub and glad it’s back open. Will be back again soon.

Really nice food but a bit pricey.Very attentive staff.

Fabulous food & friendly service . Highly recommend!

Amazing find! Stopped on the way home and found the most genuine hospitality with exciting variations on a great menu. The entire place filled with genuine people who really care! Maybe I should not post this as others find out about it we will struggle to get a table. Been twice and absolutely no change in the excellence of the place!

What an absolutely amazing experience - we had the good fortune of eating here on Saturday night after recommendations from friends of ours. From the moment we walked in to the moment we left, we were blown away with what the new owners have done. The decor has been thought through, creating an inviting and cozy place to eat - we loved the few quirky ornaments (especially the little dog) that have been subtly placed around. Now the food, I ordered the Turnworth, which came out smelling delightful and, oh my, was it just as tasty - I then had their Fennel and Red Pepper risotto, the sauce that was underneath was a tastebud explosion, unfortunately after the main and starter I couldn’t fit in a dessert. Prices were exceptional, they support local and independent business and you can tell by the quality. All in all 5 stars, we re-booked to go back in that night and we can’t wait!! A huge hit to the owners, well done!

Wow! What a place! This was mine and my wife's second time since The Red Lion re-opened, and we were very impressed! We are real foodies and this place has cracked it! The atmosphere and decor are lovely, very cosy and inviting and all the staff were extremely attentive and friendly. The food was incredible! Beautifully cooked with such rich flavours, not to mention the wonderfully refined presentation. It makes such a nice change to go to a pub in Northamptonshire and experience a menu which has been well designed and perfectly executed instead of the usual 'pub grub'. If you're into your food, this is definitely a place to visit, you won't be disappointed. Huge congratulations to the new owners and team at The Red Lion. We'll definitely be recommending you to all our friends and family, and wish you the most amount of success in these tough times. See you again very soon.

The same decor etc as the previous The food did not live up to expectation unfortunately We was expecting a lot more looking at the menu and prices The staters were disappointing The mains were nice but not great The desserts were one nice the other not so Nice wine Good friendly service. Not good value Would pay the prices again if the food was was good as it looked and sounded

Very welcoming when we walked in the pub and the place was beautifully decorated. Warm and cosy. Loved the front house staffs smiles and welcoming attitude. The good was extremely good. Definitely the most satisfying meal in Northamptonshire and best ones I’ve ever had in years. Unusual to have this level of food in this county so I was very surprised. Definitely go back for more. Strongly recommend to all foodies!!!

Welcoming and a true experience. The food was delicious and beautifully presented and staff were amazing. Thank you

We booked for a birthday lunch and had high expectations after the online write ups. It’s fair to say these expectations were blown out of the water from start to finish. The place itself is stunning and we were made super welcome. We had our hearts set on the gin and tonic fish and chips which weren’t on the menu this lunchtime. That wasn’t a problem though and the waitress/chef were very accommodating. The food itself was beautiful. Super presentation and just the right amount leaving room for the equally stunning sticky toffee pudding. Amazing place and amazing staff. The Red Lion get it bang on!

We had a lovely evening at the Red Lion. What a friendly, professional and enthusiastic team! We were greeted warmly and Elle was attentive throughout the meal. Food was delicious, beautifully presented and cooked perfectly. We finished off with Espresso Martinis which were the best we’d tasted. We’ll definitely be returning and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to friends and family.

Upon arrival we were greeted by friendly staff who took us to our table, the pub is decorated lovely and has a nice atmosphere. We then ordered our food and drinks.both menus have enough choice to keep everyone happy. Donna ordered her favourite G & T Brockmans and I had a brew dog zero Punk AF, now onto the food and we were spoiled for choice. We ended up sharing the starters and both of them were superb. ( Panko Fried Tunworth & Mackerel Pate ) and for main I went for the Venison Burger and Donna had the Gin & Tonic Battered Fish & Chips again both looked and tasted wonderful, The chips are outstanding. We then had another round of drinks before having our chosen dessert again these looked and tasted amazing, Donna had the Chocolate Decadence and I had the Cheese Board again both were lovely. I take my hat off to the team at the Red Lion for having the courage to open up a new business at this time, I hope it all works out for them. To finish get yourself over to this lovely pub and enjoy an excellent meal with them.

Amazing Sunday Dinner. One of the best I’ve tasted. The creamed Brussels sprouts were to die for. Brilliantly cooked to perfection. Would thoroughly recommend and will definitely be returning. Service was friendly and took time to chat. If you want a good quality not overpriced meal this is the place to go.

We had a fantastic evening as soon as we arrived. The food was excellent and the staff were amazing. We were there for a special occasion and the staff went an extra mile to make the evening that much special. Thank you so much We look forward to spending lots more evenings here with friends and family once lockdown is over!!
