"The experience began with a meal that felt more suited for a young child. The bratkartoffeln were depressing—bland, pale, and soggy—while the vegetarian baked dish resembled an unappetizing slice from a nursing home, accompanied by dull green vegetables. It felt like a mass-produced meal from a cafeteria or community center, which was disappointing compared to the quality of food typically served in home-cooked pub settings. It was especially disheartening, as this was meant to be a pre-booked Christmas meal. Waiting two hours for service was excessive, and attention to our table was lacking both during the wait and after our food was served. Although the menu looked promising, the reality of the food and overall experience did not live up to expectations. Honestly, I wish we had saved our money and stayed home instead."

I visited this restaurant in 2011, and recently a family member went there and we encountered the same issues - cold and undercooked food, including al dente vegetables.

Went for a carvery and the vegetable selection was awful. Burnt Parsnips, green beans and cauliflower Cheese. That was all the selection we had for an expensive cost. Left and went elsewhere.

We enjoyed a delicious afternoon tea at this restaurant. The sandwiches, cakes, sausage rolls, and scotch egg were all fantastic. The staff were attentive and friendly. We will definitely be coming back for lunch.

Sunday lunch was delicious, beautifully presented, and well organized. Although it was busy during this popular dining time, the staff managed everything exceptionally well. The outdoor seating area is lovely, offering a breathtaking view of the surrounding countryside.

"Richard and I, en route from Cambridge to Shropshire, chanced upon this splendid cafe in Kettering, easily accessible from the A14. The cafe occupies a cosy space with a breakfast bar by the window, offering a lovely view of the local red-brick architecture, and a fine place from which to watch the colourful characters of Kettering passing by. Unlike some cafes, there was no 'greasy spoon ' smell, which was a boon. Instead a delightful and appetite-arousing aroma of freshly cooked bacon and eggs. Richard opted for the small breakfast, and had no trouble in swapping out his eggs and tomato for black pudding and mushrooms at no extra cost. I ordered the much-vaunted breakfast baguette. The food was cooked freshly and served quickly. Richard was impressed by the appearance of his plate, and more so by the delicious food which he consumed with gusto. Richard said the bacon was well cooked, the mushrooms were good, not too greasy, generally everything was well cooked, the only thing that could have been better was the sausage, which was fine but obviously a 'standard quality ' sausage . My breakfast baguette was fantastic, the crispy bread was marvellous and the generous filling was hot and tasty, and not at all greasy. All this, plus two steaming cups of flavoursome tea for the bargain price of £9.90. We both took the opportunity to use the facilities and we 're impressed with their cleanliness and the provision of Radox soap. On the whole a great find. We will certainly drop in again if we pass by on another adventure."

"We have visited several of these restaurants in the past and always received exemplary service. We were on our way home in Kettering and decided to go the restaurant for dinner as we had had busy day. We arrived at 18:10 on 17/5/2023 and there were lots of tables available so we selected table 2 in a quiet corner. My wife went to the bar and placed our order for food and drink and returned to our table at 18:15. My wife went up to the bar and enquired at 18:45 and the lady said that our food was being prepared as we had seen other people bing served their food which had been ordered after our order was taken we a little confused. As the lady behind the bar did not let us know what was happening we enquired again and were told agin it was being prepared. A few minutes later a waitress approached and placed our cutlery for us, on our previous visits we have had our cutlery place very soon after your order was taken not some 45 mins after taking the order. Had we not pre paid when ordering our food we would have left as we were not happy at all with the lack of customer service. When we got our food we did not enjoy it because we had had to wait almost an hour and the bar staff seemed more interested in crating fancy cocktails than serving us with our food order that in our opinion was not given to the kitchen when we placed it.
