The Hopping Hare – NorthamptonWhat a pleasant surprise when myself and family members opened the doors on this very fine establishment. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming even though it wasn’t busy. The service was excellent, food just as good. Have already returned and everything exactly the same since first visit, I will not hesitate to spread the word, and look forward to my next visit very soon, I have signed up to emails fir any special events.
The Hopping Hare – NorthamptonVisited for Sunday lunch. On request they moved us to a much quieter table which was a nice touch. Food is a cut above the normal pub Sunday lunch fare, very well cooked and delicious. Good choices apart from the roasts, the sea bass was delicious. Vegetables much better than one normally gets. Would highly recommend.
The Hopping Hare – NorthamptonAnother fantastic meal. Food is always superb as is the service and ambience. Highly recommend.
The Hopping Hare – NorthamptonVery pleasant evening on New Year's Eve. Had a very enjoyable meal at a good price, and stayed the evening at the hotel. Breakfast in the morning, also very nice, then home. Thank you The Hopping Hare for a lovely stay and meal. See you again soon.
The Hopping Hare – NorthamptonThis is a regular for us x Sunday lunch never fails to disappoint at the Hopping Hare. Lovely staff, delicious food, good wine and delightful atmosphere. Service is excellent. Loved the starter too - mushroom and Stilton tart! Only request is to put either garlic or onion into roast potatoes to improve flavour x
The Hopping Hare – NorthamptonWe visited for the second time as a party of 6, on 28th December to celebrate my mum’s birthday. The food was delicious and the service excellent. 10/10!
The Hopping Hare – NorthamptonGood food and service but need to offer a changed menu as it doesnt change much.
The Hopping Hare – NorthamptonCame New Year’s Day and the food wasn’t as good as the festive menu we had in December. Had the trio of lamb and it was a small portion , lukewarm and not a lot of flavour .my Irish coffee wasn’t hot either . Such a shame as it’s always been excellent. Was still hungry when I got home so had to have something else .
The Hopping Hare – NorthamptonThe Hopping Hare is a convenient break of journey for me to or from the Lake District but in fact, I now take care to visit simply for the quality of the restaurant - what a marvellous discovery in a pleasant but mundane suburban district of Northampton. The produce from the Althorp Estate - pigeon breast & duo of lamb this time - is superb and the kitchen makes the most of it with slightly elaborate but not excessively tricky dishes. Desserts are worthy of a five star hotel, yet here they are in this pub restaurant with (very economical and perfectly pleasant) rooms. The servers are a delight as well, genuinely friendly and good humoured.
The Hopping Hare – NorthamptonAll really good
The Hopping Hare – NorthamptonAlways a good experience here.……Had lunch on Sunday 28th Dec. Great choice on the menu, starter and main course were excellent. Too full to eat dessert. Service, as always was excellent. Super friendly staff , cheerful and welcoming. We stop here often en route from Devon to our home in Suffolk. Would not consider anywhere else
