A massive thank you to the landlords & staff that made the wedding reception for my son and daughter in law run as smoothly as it did, considering we were incredibly late starting waiting for all the guests to arrive, and inspite of that, the kitchen were able to provide all the mix of different meals. The food was fantastic and the wine (chosen especially by the groom) was spot on! I myself went with the massive burger & fries which was great, I almost regret not choosing the salmon as it looked lovely, I couldn’t have hoped for any better, the whole day was perfect from start to finish, topped off with a great nights sleep and a banging fry-up in the morning!

I recently attended a wedding at this charming local pub, and I can honestly say it was one of the best wedding receptions I have experienced. The venue had a cozy, intimate atmosphere with rustic decor that perfectly suited the occasion. The staff was attentive and friendly, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. The food was delicious, offering a great variety of roast and buffet dishes that everyone enjoyed. The drink selection was impressive, with a large range of wine and craft beers. The live music added a lively touch, making the evening even more memorable. Overall, it was a wonderfully executed event that perfectly blended warmth and elegance.

We've had numerous lunches and evening meals at The Stag over the years and never been disappointed with the quality of the food and service from all the staff.
We very recently attended a wedding celebration there and it was absolutely wonderful . . . the main venue was in a marquee attached to the pub. It was beautifully decorated in a lovely wedding theme, and the food served was first class. Music played all afternoon and evening either with a great DJ or a live band. Couldn't fault anything about the whole event . . . Thanks to you all for a memorable day

Just on the Stag website this morning to book for a meal this next week - just seen these reviews for the wedding event held this weekend - which came as a huge surprise as we were guests at a wedding at the Stag recently - in July - and found none of these issues with food / staff / attentive service - my own experience was nothing but complimentary and not forgetting the cask ale which my husband loved and kept so well here by the landlord I will be returning- hence my booking a table for this week!

We have never stayed in the rooms but my cousins did and said they were good. We come here every couple of weeks and there is always a great atmosphere with friendly bar staff and good food always served with a smile. We were invited to a wedding a week or so ago and we had a great time with great food and good choice of drinks to choose from. Thank you very much guys.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting The Stag and found it to be an outstanding establishment with a lot to offer. The pub, built in the 1700s, beautifully preserves its traditional character while incorporating modern comforts and touches.
While I understand that every experience can vary, it’s important to note that my visit was marked by excellent service, a diverse and flavorful menu, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The staff were attentive and handled every situation with professionalism and care.
Regarding the comments I’ve seen on food quality and service timing, I did not experience any issues myself. It’s worth mentioning that if any concerns about the food or service arise, addressing them with the staff directly often leads to prompt resolutions. For instance, if there were any issues with the food, such as taste or freshness, bringing them to the staff’s attention whilst dining, could result in swift action to resolve them.
I personally am a wine drinker and think it’s important to consider that bottled wine is sealed and should remain consistent with its intended taste. Variations might come from personal taste changes or other factors unrelated to the pub’s offerings.
The Stag's ambiance, combining historic charm with contemporary amenities, made for a delightful visit. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable pub experience!

Called in on route to somewhere else. It was very busy with Sunday lunch. We only wanted a light snack so were allowed to just have a starter with tea / coffee. Very tasty and nice service. Next visit, we will land for Sunday lunch.

We had traveled a long way and pulled off the motorway to have some food. When we asked if they were still serving, we were abruptly told yes but be quick as we stop taking orders in 10min.
Having menus passed to us she then went on to say oh and if you order it’s going to be a long wait !!
We felt that they just didn’t want our order, so just had a quick drink and left . Another couple came in a few minutes after us and were given the same welcome and response, again they felt awkward and just ordered a drink and packet of crisps !!!
They are losing good business by treating travellers this way. We will not go back

Just had Sunday lunch with the family at The Stag and enjoyed it so much i felt that they deserved a mention on here.
The staff were really friendly and accomodating, the atmosphere was warm, comfortable and welcoming, and the food was great too.
We had a lovely Sunday roast, well cooked and great portions, with really indulgent desserts and all reasonably priced.
Would highly recommend a trip here for a relaxed Sunday afternoon!

Friendly pub, good food, large carpark, just off the A14 junction 2.

Upon entering the pub, one can't help but appreciate the decoration that surrounds the space. The staff have a warm and welcoming demeanor, contributing positively to the overall experience. Our visit was timed for an early lunch, coinciding with the lighting of the fireplace. As a result, the initial ambiance was somewhat cooler than expected, likely due to the timing of our arrival in relation to the fire being kindled. This minor aspect, however, does not significantly detract from the charming and inviting atmosphere of the pub.

Situated just by the side of the A508 approx 15mins from Northampton is the Stag. Booked a table for 4 on a Thursday lunch and it was surprisingly busy, a good sign
Had a pint of Southwold whilst waiting for my meal. Opted for the Wagu burger and pulled pork, I thought delicious, the others in the party had fish and chips, chilli and gammon. All of us had a good meal. For afters I had a caramel type pud which was lovely.
The one thing about this pub is prices are very sensible.

Excellent little pit-stop just off the A14. Can't comment on the rooms as we didn't stay, but it was a pretty place with pleasant surroundings and a lovely cosy pub with friendly staff. Recommend.

When it is a miserable wet night and you don’t want to cook or shop after work The Stag produced a warming meal of Steak and Ale Pie and Fish Pie.
So reasonably priced, promptly delivered in a nice warm and cosy environment and lovely lady at the bar - M - you know who I mean.
Thank you .
