The Axe And Compass

my wife and I visited this public house today for Sunday dinner and was more than satisfied with the beautiful food, which can only be described as a delicious house style on Sunday afternoon 10/10 and not forget the nice and friendly host. we are looking forward to a new visit at a very reasonable price of just £9.95 for the main course

Trying to support local and different pubs in the area but tonight it just did not work. Ordered 2 burgers and a pizza at 6:30 on a very quiet food wise evening and eventually got our meal, which we had to send back twice, an...hour and 15 mins later. Very disappointing. Manager was apologetic but in general waiting staff need to improve their customer service skills.

for a group of hikers for a lunch break. the website checked for menus, but google said it was permanently closed! when one of the groups was here before a week, we were not too worried. but when we arrived this morning, there was a sign that the place was closed because of unforeseen circumstances. Please note them and check them before they come. that said that things happen so that I am not too critical, but it was a disappointment.

Nice pub in a good location, a couple of miles from Thrapston, with ample car parking. There is also outdoor seating. We had calamari, scallops and tempura prawns to start. Mains, sea bass, burger and gammon steak. Desserts were, Elton mess and ice cream. Food...was tasty and ample portions. The service was first class. Such a friendly team and so welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble. Our bill was £70. We will be going back to have Sunday lunch.

My son moved into the village around the start of COVID and we dropped in the night before lockdown. Not a fair time to judge anywhere. So at first opportunity four us booked and early Saturday meal. Attentive staff, good selection, good value, served hot...and clean /pleasant surroundings. The operation has changed hands we understand from Inga, who served us and is a part of the management team. A character and good fun she is. Good luck with the venture,new would certainly come back and would recommend.

A choice of 4 starters, three meats and 4 puddings were on the menu. The chicken strip starter was nice, as was the red velvet cheesecake for pudding. Main meal was OK. Potatoes let the meal down, we all left most of the roast spuds....I think they had been boiled and fried rather than roasted. Gravy was rather thin, but the Yorkshire pudding was the star of the show, very tasty indeed. £19.95 for three course, was fairly reasonable, food served piping hot. Staff very friendly. Service wasn't the fastest, but we were not in a rush, so that was OK. Dining room pleasant, patio doors were open, so it was a little chilly while we ate.

We visited this pub last night with 2 other couples for an evening meal. We live in Ringstead but hadn’t been to the pub for a long time and decided to try out the food. The menus on the website were not the menu we...were given, we were provided with an Evening restaurant Menu, which gave you more choice than the main meal menu on the website, for Starters and the Main Course. We all chose different items and the majority of us had 3 courses. The food was really enjoyable to eat, the portion sizes and prices were very reasonable. The waitress was very pleasant and helpful. We were very happy with the whole experience and the food was delicious.

We visited for the first time with our new puppy for lunch. The staff were all very friendly, and the food was okay. We sat down and were given around 6 different menus including some that didn’t pertain to our visit (given a Sunday...menu despite it being a Wednesday We ordered a chicken starter which was huge for a starter! The chicken was a little greasy, and the batter didn’t have a massive amount of flavour, but the chicken itself tasted fresh. The madras curry was great and the fish was massive! My only gripe with the main meals would be the lack of chips with my fish I only got around 10 chips! Staff were great and food was okay. For the price, we would definitely return!

the party of 6 went to Sunday dinner. arrived after 12 clock and in the 15.00 restaurant quiet in the whole city. terrace doors both wide open we were cold during the meal. asked them to be closed and one side was closed. still wind through the...area assume doors for covid open. we haven't eaten anywhere else with this approach. if they want to go on, they tell people when they book, so they can dress accordingly and bring a deck. choice of 4 appetizers and 3 meats for pornstars. the kartoffels of the were roasted roasted potatoes, which were cut half with the skin, hard and terrible we flew them. gravy was thin, greasy and tasteless. desserts good, sticky toffee pudding beautiful! accept t...
