I was very disappointed. I thought that for the prices that everything would be great. The interior was cold and the seating extremely random..... Bench on 1 side and a garden chair opposite. The waitresses had no knowledge of the menu and could not answer any of our questions. The lamb was delicious but every thing else was very mediocre. The "sides" are no better than drive-thru places. Overall it was not great and I can't recommend it.

Holy hell! This is one of my favourite food places. Not for you delicate Vegan crazies. This is meat eating carnivore heaven! I go down from Derby to see friends in Northampton and demand we eat here. I say demand. It only need a whispered suggestion and the whole gang literally just says, "damn straight!"

Lovely food with attentive staff. The restaurant has a great aesthetic and is very stylish and laid back. The food tastes great and is an okay price for what you get. Great location in the centre of Northampton town.

Tucked out of the way down a side road, this place looks unassuming but when you walk in and see the cuts of meat in the dry chiller you know that this place means business. Extensive menu with meats cooked perfectly and good craft ale on tap. Great service with staff able to make sound recommendations. Great atmosphere too!

Wonderful drinks and sauces! I will be going back but I will not be ordering the brisket again! I was not convinced it was smoked as the menu suggested. I expected more of a Texas style obviously smoked sliced brisket. What I got was more akin to a well done pulled beef roast and tasted like it. Onion rings and mac'n cheese were good as was the slaw. Although the latter was more Asian style which seemed inconsistent. Next time maybe I'll try the ribs and wings. My date ordered the buffalo chicken sandwich. Again to their favour, the buffalo sauce was legit. All in all, seems like a good place. I just ordered the wrong thing for me.
