Althorp Coaching Inn

Ordered Sunday lunch which came quite quickly. I think they use the size of the very large Yorkshire pudding to disguise the fact that you dont get very much in your plate! I had the beef and got 2 small slices, the friend I was with got 1 thick slice. And it was lukewarm!!! I would normally tell the staff but didnt want to be impolite with the friend I was with. And genuinely not moaning for moaning sake but the lighting in the back corner near the fire was terrible. On the positive, the waitress that served us was lovely and friendly. I know they've only been open 2 weeks so hopfully these things can be rectified as the pub is lovely and charming and in a beautiful village.

We waited so long for the refurbishment of this our favourite olde worlde pub, sadly the purple paint scheme in the loo and bar area make ie look like a cheap and nasty Daventry pub. This pub has lost its charm and a loyal customer! You have got it wrong for a historical country pub. The front door access was closed, how uninviting is that?!

Food was delicious, fresh, nobody leaves hungry. Really nicely refurbished, it still feels like an cosy old fashioned pub. We will definitely be back.

Booked a table for 8 and was asked to preorder food the day before so they could be ready! Walked in table wasnt even set up. Food was disappointing and only just warm, orders were wrong, maybe they should have asked for 2 days to prepair.
Bar service was shocking with hardly no knowledge of the drinks they serve.

Wont be going back, waist of time and a Saturday night!

Dis-appointed ! Went for a sunday lunch, should have stayed at home. Starter was weird, onion badji..a strange one! Roast potatoes, still white, veg, roasted to the point of burnt! Presentation of Mains was just a tower of food inside an empty plate. Wont be returning. Looks like we'll be heading back to the hoping hare 👌

I visited tonight for dinner with my parents. I'm not usually one to leave reviews but we had such a nice time I just had to. The food was lovely, the staff were so welcoming, and the pub itself is so cosy and inviting. Thankyou for a great evening. We'll definitely be back again, with the dog next time!

Visited on reopening and again recently. The more mature lady in the restaurant was very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about both menu and drinks.
However bar staff were lounging on the bar talking to each other and seemed uninterested unless you are a regular.
Bar tables not clean. We were served a bottle of Barolo at £45.00, dusty straight from the cellar cold with no apology. Disappointed to say the least won't be recommending. Management need to look into staffing issues

Lovely pub with great staff , unfortunately for us ( three people) disappointed at the amount of dogs allowed. Disgusting smell actually, not sure how you can allow so many animals when you are serving food . Although today no food was being served. Hope to come back soon but without the dog smell?
