Reviews of John Franklin's

T. W.

Style over content trying to be hipster place. Don't accept cash that's fine until the Internet fails. A bit expensive I can pay less in London for a pint of larger. Better value place's to drink in the town centre.

M. W.

Decent pub that serves cocktails. A can highly recommend the Dark and Stormy cocktail made with rum. Oddly there is only one toilet!

M. S.

John Franklin's is a fantastic little destination location, always great service and it's such a unique place, great drinks and with that something special with their food offering. A great place for a business meeting, casual catch up, or a good evening out!

D. M.

Such a great spot. Good selection of drinks and a nice location to watch the world go by. Not sure if food is served as we only wanted drinks this time at the tables out the front. What a sun trap, it's lovely!

D. K.

Very nice location. Beautifully refurbished with nice choices of draft lagers, beers, wines, bar snacks, etc. Not sure if the bar made was not used to pulling beers or the taps arent well kept but the beers were quite 'lively' and had a slightly watered down flavour, which was disappointing as there has clearly been a huge investment in the environment.

Nice quiet corner for a glass of beer and a chat with an old friend. Very friendly staff, good service, nice beer (and wine for my friend). Definitely glad I tried it will definitely go there again! May even have a bite to eat next time. Enjoy, Christiaan 👍🙂👌

Lovely quiet drink and cheeseboard before going into the Eroll Flynn cinema. Only only complaint . Arrived about 5.40pm and every table had reserved, and name for 6.30pm. Numerous people came in and left because there were no tables available. We left at 7.00pm and not one of those reserved tables had people at them. Surely this cant be acceptable , you probably lost so much trade.

M. S.

Nice classy venue pre or post a show at the derngate. Great drinks big variety of gins and the cheese selection is amazing off the mini deli they have inside. Great for sharing and much better than normal burgers a typical pub would do

J. Z.

Great selection of cheeses and meats. The cakes look delicious...might try later. I've visited here on a Sunday morning and it's very chilled and relaxed for catch up for several hours with a few friends. A must try!!!

I. H.

Lovely decor and ambiance.

M. A. S.

Stylish wine bar located right next to Royal & Derngate Theatre. Offering good selection of cheese and meat platters as well as some local ales. They are also open for lunch and café.

P. M.

Wheelchair accessible, low lights which will help with sensory sensitivity. Good tea but need better choice of dessert and allergy warnings.

E. W.

Popped in for a drink after xmas shopping. Fab chilled atmosphere & cosy sofas to relax for a minute on after the craziness of N'ton town shops! Staff were very lovely. We will be back 😊

P. L.

Pleasant interior and offers interesting variety of food to the usual bar drinks selection. Convenient for theatre as in Northampton's Cultural Quarter

P. E.

Lovely bar. Quiet enough to have a chat. I also recommend the warm salted caramel vodka and apple juice, tastes just like apple pie!!😋

C. B.

Fancy a cup of tea or coffee and a slice of England on a plate, in a warm friendly and comfortable environment,then pull open the door and enter John Franklin's situated in the heart of Northampton's cultural district. Alternatively you might like to try their wine and cheese selections, perfect for relaxing after work or before a show at the Derngate and Royal theatres which directly adjoin Franklin's. The environment and feel of John Franklin's is one of elegance with a modern contemporary twist. From the multi shaded light fittings to the high backed leather comfy chairs, choose a nook, tuck yourself away, relax and enjoy.
