Reviews in Northamptonshire

I visited Northampton with my friends for the day so had searched for a good restaurant in the area and came across The Hopping Hare. So glad I did. The food, the ambiance and friendly customer service was first class. I doubt we will be in the area again but would highly recommend to future customers.

Excellent food beautifully presented. Pleasant attentive staff. The whole place was very clean and tidy

Another enjoyable family meal at this lovely venue. Friendly & attentive staff, well presented tasty food all at reasonable prices. The brisket dish was delicious!

Met up with some old friends for lunch. We had never been before but would definately visit again. The food was really very good, staff were excellent and the wine choice with well thought out. My onlyslight concern was that we weren’t asked about allergies. I have a severe Crab allergy but as there was no crab on the menu this didn’t matter at all.

This restaurant never ceases to amaze..... the food staff and service is fantastic and the presentation of each dish is exceptional.... bravo to the whole team but the chief (s) deserves an accolade for what is only a rembrant on a plate.... congratulations all

Yes we enjoyed our time at your venue and would go back at a later date

We sat at an outside table right by the lock gates… beautiful (and interesting setting), watching the narrow boats navigate the locks while we enjoyed a sumptuous burger lunch… idyllic.

Fantastic tasting menu again

Excellent service Excellent food

Loverly historic venue for lunch with old friends. So nice that the interior has retained its original charm and the plentiful staff also deliver with smiles and charm. Great menu, we had steak, burgers and salads between the 4 of us and none disappointed. Deserts were even better, cheesecakes and sticky toffee puddings. We will be back again and again ! .

We were very happy with the food, but would like to say the toilets left alot to be desired !!! The toilets themselves very clean but area around the toilets awful and very very smelly that we had to hold our breath whilst in there !!!!

Lovely meal with grandma, aunt & hubby yesterday. Great food & fab service. Friendly bar & waiting staff. The best scampi, fish & chips, lamb kebab & ham & eggs. Would definitely recommend.

Visited on the 30th June for my mums birthday. We had an afternoon meal. We all ordered steaks 2 fillet and a rump all were absolutely delicious. All plates cleaned. The service was brilliant. Lovely venue. Will definitely be returning.

I’ve been here quite a few times over the years and I’ve never been disappointed. Always lovely food and drink followed up by the good service from the friendly staff who ensure that your time here is excellent. There has always been a nice and relaxed atmosphere here whether it’s lunch or dinner time. Background music volume is good to the level where you can appreciate it rather than not hear yourself think. There is a good selection of lager on draught and variety of options on main menu and burger menu at good prices. Top marks all round. One of the best canal side pubs in the country and the best in Braunston. A fine establishment that must be appreciated.

Great setting - food definitely has a home cooked feel - slight problem with a lasagna temperature but resolved quickly and professionally by attentive and friendly staff

Good food and very accommodating staff as there was no problem when we wanted to add an extra person to our booking at the last minute. Lovely setting right on the canal by a lock. Highly recommend.

Everything was perfect again it always is , thanks to everyone involved it was wonderful

Great food, drink and service. Real enjoyed our lunch on a very busy day of the boat rally. Would definitely go back.
