"I ordered the scallops, black pudding, and muddy brooms, which were nice, although the portion seemed a bit off. My dad's burger was well-cooked and beautifully presented, but it felt somewhat mass-produced. The same could be said for the hunter's chicken my partner ordered; it was tasty and nicely presented, but nothing extraordinary. The desserts, however, were a highlight. We all opted for the mini desserts, but they seemed more like regular portions. The Eton mess was delightful, the brownie with ice cream was very good, and the crumble was crisp and fruity with a lovely custard. The espresso coffees were a bit bitter but served piping hot. I would suggest offering a small liqueur with the mini desserts, as we experienced this combination in France, and it’s a lovely way to finish off a meal. I was a little disappointed to see that the Windhover has become a chain restaurant, reminiscent of a classier Harvester. The menu a few years ago was much more unique and personalized. Overall, it was a very pleasant lunch, but I’m not entirely sure if I would return."

There is no doubt that this is the best Chinese food in town. The quality is fantastic and the prices are great value for money.

This was once my go-to spot for business lunches, but the overall experience has declined recently because of unfriendly staff and a shortage of employees.

Service was great and the food was delicious, it’s very pleasing when you take 7 people to a place and the bill is under £120, which surprised me as it was my turn to pay, View menu

I recently visited this place and found the food to be delicious, with a wide variety of options. The pub itself is cozy and well-kept, exactly what you would expect from a pub.

I made a reservation through the OpenTable app, which was confirmed, but when I arrived at The Windhover, they didn't have any record of it. Fortunately, I was able to get a table in the bar area.

"I had the pleasure of visiting La Terraza Tapas Bar in Upton with my kids, and I must say, it was a delightful experience. The ambiance was incredibly cozy and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a family outing. The friendly staff added to the welcoming atmosphere, making us feel right at home. The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the tapas selection. The steak with chimichurri sauce was a burst of flavors that left us craving for more, and the Tempura prawns were simply delectable. It's clear that the chefs here take pride in their creations, as every dish we tried was a delightful journey for the taste buds. As a first-time visitor, I was thoroughly impressed by the overall experience, and I can confidently say it won't be our last visit. While the prices leaned slightly towards the expensive side, the quality of the food and the cozy ambiance more than made up for it. La Terraza Tapas Bar strikes the perfect balance between a gourmet dining experience and a comfortable family outing. I also appreciated the cleanliness of the restaurant, which is always an important factor for me when choosing a place to dine. All in all, La Terraza Tapas Bar offers a fantastic option for a memorable lunch with family or friends. If you're looking for a place that combines delicious food, a warm atmosphere, and a touch of elegance, this is definitely a spot worth considering.

AKASAKA Japanese

AKASAKA Japanese

23 Castilian Streetshire NN1 1JS, Northampton, United Kingdom

Menu • Sushi • Curry • Asiatic • Chicken


"I wondered why this restaurant described itself on the board outside as ‘fusion’, why there were so many Korean dishes on the menu and why the serving staff have heard of Asahi beer but haven’t heard of The Asahi Shimbun, a Japanese daily newspaper that is at least 50 years old. The answer is that the Akasaka website isn’t being completely honest when it describes their Northampton branch as a Japanese restaurant. They aren’t really Japanese, although some of their menu items are clearly Japanese. Don’t let that put you off, however, as they are serving excellent food and we enjoyed our meal there very much. It cost us about £70 (inc. 10% tip) for our meal for two people including a 175ml glass of Sauvignon Blanc for my lovely wife and two 330ml bottles of Asahi Dry for me. The sushi was excellent, the edamame beans were great but we didn’t feel that the Dolsot Bibimbap (a Korean dish with loads of rice, some shredded vegetables, prawns and a fried egg on top) offered very good value for money at just under sixteen pounds. We would recommend Akasaka in Northampton and would certainly go there again, but if we want a genuinely Japanese meal, prepared and served by Japanese staff, then we will be sticking to Ginza Restaurant on Wellingborough Road in Northampton. Don’t like the way that the male members of staff at Sakura on Bridge Street speak to their female colleagues, very disrespectful, so we avoid that Japanese restaurant nowadays. Great to have a choice of three Japanese restaurants in Northampton post-pandemic, and our favourite of the three is Ginza."
