Very good service - polite and attentive staff, food average. I had the mixed grill my son had an 8oz steak, - off the adults menu before you ask!
S. T.
Delicious food and good value. I had the mushroom and ale pie, which had beautifully crisp pastry and a tasty filling although I'd have liked a few more mushrooms. Service was good and the staff very friendly. Also dog friendly.
B.
Nothing was too much trouble, my wife kept asking for more gravy and the waiter kept bringing it. The sunday dinner was so good. I had the veg wellington which was the best ever. I left a big tip because we were looked after and the chef cares about what he sends out to the table. Book online using the website if they say they are full, you can get a table sometimes.

Came in for food on Tuesday with some friends.
We had a great time, and lots of drinks.
The staff looked after us all night and couldn’t do enough for us.
There was a quiz on, it started whilst we were eating so we didn’t join in.
However we moved into the bar area after we finished and caught the second half.
We shall be back next week as the quiz questions were not too taxing and it looked like a lot of fun.
All in all, a very good night, excellent food and service.
M. R.
Food was absolutely stunning, staff friendly, definitely coming back.

Stop in here after a walk along the Brampton Valley rail line. Very nice pub and would recommend a visit
J. S.
Great food, great service, very happy!
S. W.
Food was nice and service was great only think that let it down was the wait time …. Nearly 2 hours for dinner on a Saturday (wasn’t that busy) was a bit annoying. However I had enough wine to keep me going hehe. Worth a try x
J. D.
Been to this pub so many times and it is a lovely pub, but will that works behind the bar is easily the most fridliest and most welcoming barman I have ever met, there is nothing will won't do to make your time here friendly and comfortable. Will is a credit to this pub.

Had a fantastic lunch here a few weeks ago. Portions are very generous and great value for money. Lovely village pub!
A. M.
I have very mixed meals at this restaurant, but could honestly say this was one of the best meals we have had there, the steaks were cooked to perfection no one complained about their meals. Staff were exceptional too definitely changed my star rating because of this occasion
A. W.
Fantastic opening after covid.
Staff were great, felt very safe.
P. B.
First time visiting and wasn't disappointed, everything from the booking on line, greeting, service and food were fantastic. Very reasonably priced, will definitely be revisiting again soon.
The only couple of feedback points would be a choice of chips with the burgers and a littleore custard with the apple crumble but they were personal preferences. 5*.
G. M.
A very nice place. As it's under a large brewery the menu is largely as it would be in a number of their other pubs, which has the advantage of decent quality at reasonable prices. What makes a visit worth while is the extremely nice setting, staff and building. I hope to visit again soon.
K. S.
We can never fault these guys, today we visited with our 4 year old and we felt welcome from the start, the staff treated her like a real person and even catered for a special pudding request without hesitation. The food is always so good and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. This has been our go-to for celebratory meals since our first date in 2004 and will continue to be for many years to come I'm sure!
S. M.
Lovely spacious pub in a small village not too far from Althorp Estate. (Diana Princess of Wales’ childhood home) Good food and service. Will definitely return.
J. L.
Nice place, and both my starter and main were very good. I wasn't crazy about the dessert, but I think it was me. Price was upper reasonable for a semi-special occasion. Our server Lucy was fantastic.
J. T.
The service provided by the staff was beyond expectations. I accidentally left an important item in a napkin which was thrown away when the table was cleared. Once I explained this to the staff with no hesitation they spent 30 minutes searching the bins for me and found the item! They make me feel like it was no trouble at all and I can’t thank them enough for the friendly service they provided! The food and drinks were excellent as well! Will definitely visit again! Thanks :)
A. D.
We had a good table without a booking. The ordered meals were enjoyed. We will go there again I'm sure.
L. A.
Absolutely gorgeous food, tastes even better than it looks. We used some Tesco's vouchers too, which is a fantastic way to treat yourself. It is our favourite local-ish pub, we are always well looked after.
M. B.
I've visited the Spencers Arms a few times over the years and really enjoyed it, however we went for a birthday meal recently and the service wasn't great. Staff were friendly enough, but they all seemed distracted.
Staff were on point with drinks, however we had to wait 40 minutes for starters and by the time they came, the Korean chicken strips were stone cold, like they had been left sitting under a warming lamp for the last 15 minutes, however they tasted great and presentation was nice. The main course then took another 35 minutes to arrive. The pub wasn't busy to be honest. Our party of 6, a couple having dinner and another party of 4. There was a few other people just having drinks. It was quiet night.
We were going to order deserts, however the service had been so slow we decided not to bother. Sorry guys, your usually really good, but it was a bit of a let down. Also the tables didn't feel clean and the wall we were set next too had food/gravy smeared all over it. We live 35 minutes away from this pub, but it was one of the party members favourite places to eat, but after this last visit, it will be a while before we decide to visit again. Sorry guys.
G. W.
Nice pub, lots of beer choice, good food and very friendly staff, service was a little on the slow side but nice family meal out

Staff were very friendly & very I chose from the lunch time menu & it was delicious,but my husband was very disappointed in his, felt it was overpriced for what he got...
s. m.
Very nice meal good service and excellent beer

Very welcoming, lovely food..Nice location.
H. W.
Disappointed.
We've visited many times over the years and it's always been tasty food.
We came on Saturday night for a rare date night away from our young family as we had some clubcard vouchers to use and its quite local to us.
My husband really enjoyed the Korean chicken starter, the burger in his words was nice (but not amazing) and it was a rare treat for me to enjoy a refreshing cider on tap instead of being on bedtime duty. I ordered from the specials menu - chicken livers and duck (requested be served pink), but unfortunately the liver was a bit dry like it was overcooked (it should be really tender) and the duck was well done, not pink and a bit dry. Perhaps I should have stuck to the main menu....
It also took quite a long time for our mains despite it not looking busy.
The waiting staff and lady on front of house were friendly and helpful (and apologetic for our table not being ready on arrival), but the food wasn't to its usual standard. We were also a bit hidden away in tired looking corner at the back, which wasn't as nice as the main restaurant area.
We had to rush off after our main and miss dessert due to childcare issues and the staff were very sympathetic and hurried our bill and offered to give us dessert to take away, which would have been nice, but unfortunately we couldn't wait around as our baby daughter was hysterical at home.
Usually the food is better- I appreciate there might have been staff shortages or something, but I would have felt really let down paying full price compared to the normal quality there.
Hopefully it's a blip as we've always enjoyed the meals at the Spencer Arms.
S. J.
Absolutely fabulous service, food excellent, we had the Christmas festive menu, the Bloody Mary Prawn Cocktail starter and the turkey roast dinner were delicious and first class and we’d like to say a big thank you to the staff that served us, namely Lara and chefs Kim and Tasha, we’ll definitely be back👍
j. w.
A small over Sight by staff spoilt the evening. The annoying thing was that a member of staff actually pointed out to us that they should have done something about it. It was a pity because the food and service was excellent. Unfortunately we got seated very closely to a very lively family. Had I been in wetherspoons it would have been easier to accept. However this was a country pub which we anticipated would be ideal for a quiet meal for two. It was anything but. The problem we had is it would have been very embarrassing for us and the family had we requested a move to another table. So unfortunately we had to sit through all of their very animated stories and games of scissors paper stone. By the end of the evening my ears where ringing and my wife was covering her ears up. It should have been a lovely evening but unfortunately we left feeling very frustrated
N. u.
Good food, prices and happy staff

Great place for a meal and drink.Staff so helpful and friendly.
A. W.
A great range of beers.
Can see this pub collects for Macmillan which is a charity close to my heart.
D. B.
Staff friendly and very helpful, customer service fab. Food was good however as a pre-booked menu I can't comment about their day to day menu x
J. K.
Nice atmosphere good food reasonably priced
C. S.
Nice looking place with the usual country pub theme.staff very good and happy service is very good as well my only gripe is the quality of the food frozen chips and burnt meat out of the four of us not one had meat that wasn't burnt.all in all I'm willing to give another try
C. B.
Amazing specials menu and more diverse really good vegetarian options
C. W.
Lovely food and staff. Excellent visit 😀
m. t.
Meal was ok, nothing special but good for the price and what you would expect of a pub chain. Service was pretty slow die to a staff shortage but girls were pleasant enough. Don't think we would rush back though.
E. O.
Lovely atmosphere, nice pub, good food!
M. V.
The chicken sandwich was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had
A. M.
The pub has a great new long awaited vegetarian options.
S. P.
Came here for a meal last week absolutely beautiful. Staff were great 👍 food was piping hot. As a lover of all things Chef & Brewer this pub is definitely 1 of my favourites. Will be back soon- thankyou team spencers!
H. P.
My colleague and I ate here while staying in the area over night. We chose to eat from the Supper Club Menu. The food was excellent, plentiful and good value for money. Staff were welcoming, friendly and very efficient. The Spencer Arms is definitely one for the office guide to where we eat. Thank you.
M. E.
Went expecting to use from app ordering, however it was a confusing situation of having to go to the bar to get the menu and back again to order.
R. 1.
Had a wonderful experience at the Spenser arms the other day! Ash especially made me and my partner feel so welcome and served us very well throughout the night. Would definitely recommend and come back in the future!

K. D.
Great gluten free menu, I enjoyed my meal here, the staff was very friendly
S. W.
Came as a group of 4 we all ordered starters 2 french onion soups, 1 mussels, 1 Garlic mushrooms
Mussels were fantastic
Both friends said soup was delicious but it would have been nice to have it the classic way with a crouton floating on top or maybe with some rustic bread rather than the sliced bread that came with it
My mushrooms were tasty but the crumpet they were served on looked really sad and squashed
I had the Hake and chowder for main which was delicious
Husband and friends had burger which was ok nothing special
And 2 pies one of each flavour both I was told were delicious
We had coffee and mini puds all were really lovely
We had a really good meal in a nice cosy atmosphere the staff were friendly and attentive we look forward to returning
J. L.
Lovely food, great service, very pleasant atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.
G. S.
Visited last week our main meal was very nice, but felt dessert was a rip off my eton mess consisted of 3 raspberrys on the top with raspberry couli, then cream & meringue and couli in the bottom, for the price i would expect more fruit in it
D. S.
Just had lunch. Haven't been here in two years. Great menu had a great time. Will be back very soon.
M. T.
We had a very enjoyable Christmas drink
The winter spritz gin was lovely the staff chatty
M. R.
Nice pub. Nice garden in the summer. Food is good and better quality than the usual. Would have got 5 stars but the service was a bit rubbish. Dont let that put you off though it wasn't terrible it just wasn't good either.
Definitely worth a visit
B. C.
Not hard to see why this pub is very busy.
K. M.
Lovely pub, great atmosphere, great service
K. G.
Popped in at lunch time. We could not fault a thing. The waitress was very polite and attentive. When I couldn't decide what to have she advised me about each dish. Food was hot and tasty and the bill was very reasonable. We will definitely return!
I. W.
Good food, friendly service, nice pub, can't ask for much more.
T. I. C. A.
Had a lovely Sunday roast here . Very nice food and the child's meal was almost as big as the adults compared to some places where for a 13 year old you don't know whether to order an adults meal. The guy who served us was good to say the kids roast was a good size. Very nice pub and great service
P. M.
Friday lunchtime and reasonably busy. The two girls on duty were really pleasant and efficient. Food came out quickly, was of good quality and value. Nice place for a chain pub and certainly better than the other two chef and brewer pubs in the area.
A. A.
Just had a fantastic family meal here tonight. Sharing starters and main meals were all wonderfully cooked and tasted amazing. Best meal we've had in a pub for ages, the waitress Lindsay was really nice too. Would recommend this place although the Peroni was a tad expensive, £10.24 for two pints.
J.
Good food - tasty and with fair-sized portions. The menu is well-balanced and the service usually swift. Design-wise, it’s quite old-fashioned on the inside, but there’s nothing wrong with that and only adds to its charm. Plenty of car parking spaces outside also. Recommended.
H. P.
Saw this country treasure on the way to see my daughter at Northampton uni.booked a table over the net at lunch and then hoped id made the right decision. Needn't have worried!staff attentive ,polite and welcoming. Food was gorgeous. Ordered medium rare steak and wasn't disappointed . Will definitely be back.
A. L.

Very enjoyable meal here tonight. Gave them next to no notice and they were very accommodating.would definitely recommend.👍
L. K.
Good pub. Delicious food.
B. L.
Oldie world pub/restaurant. We enjoyed a pleasant lunch and on paying we were told they were giving 30% off. Nice surprise, but we could see no signs advertising it. If we had known we would have ordered more expensive options!
The down side was that the man in charge was dressed very casually, and there was definitely dust around the edges of the eating area.
L. M.
Quaint cosy little village pub. Candle and flowers on table nice little touch. Warm greeting by Mia on arrival. Sirloin steak for me. Mixed grill for hubby. Both cooked perfectly with freshly cooked chips. Delicious. Can highly recommend the wide selection of gins on offer too ! We were attentively looked after by Jack & Robin. Very pleasant evening. Highly recommend!
L. W.
We planned 70th birthday and 30th Anniversary celebration for my mum. They catered for our party to a good standard. Food was great, service good. Definitely going back.
C. H.
Had an excellent lunch (14 th. OCT 2020) We selected from the Special's menu. 10oz Ribeye beautifully cooked medium rare with a large glass of cab Sauv. A seafood grill of hake, salmon and king prawns with a chilled glass of Giotto Pinot Grigio for my wife. We have used the Spencer Arms for over 50 years but not for sometime as the standards did vary. I really could not fault the present team, our waiters Lara & Jack were very pleasant the food & drink 5 star, we will be back very soon!
T. H.
Great food and fantastic customer service. Staff made the visit for us, they were extremely welcoming and when there was a problem with my food order due to food allergies they were very accommodating. They made our quick stop for lunch a fantastic one, highly recommend.
S. H.
Food excellent and staff very friendly. Was served by Angus and he was very chatty. Will definitely revisit
k. h.
If you dont want to be rushed through 3 courses and take your time with good but not invasive service then this is the pub for you. well trained, friendly courteous staff and good food make this a relaxing occasion. Fresh food takes time.

Excellent meal 3 course festive menu
Best meal in a long time
R. E.
Went for a weekly catch up with family where we usually order some food outside of the restaurant section, been doing this for the last 10 years as we live in Chapel Brampton. Disappointed to learn the bar staff were refusing this service under authority from the chef as they were "too busy" even though there were 5-6 tables free in restaurant alone for the last 2 hours, couple ordered just before us who were sitting opposite us in the "bar area" and were happily served their food infront of us. Didn't appear to have any management so would assume the chef decided to take the night off and not give a f***. Such a shame to be given this kind of service after being a patron for 10 years.
With thanks from the very hungry Reece & Gary Eastman.
EDIT: After an excellent conversation with the GM Dan I have been assured this was an isolated incident and alternatives will be offered in the future!
j. p.
Usually very good pub & food. Staff very pleasant but a couple of things disappointed my last visit last night. My partner wished to have triple cooked chips instead of fries. They were not available. She had sweet potato chips instead. Yet, myself and my other two guests had chips with our food !!?? Why wasn't that option given to my partner?
Secondly, I ordered a blackberry and apple crumble pie with custard. The pie came on a small plate with a napkin UNDER the pie? Why?..... I had to manoeuvre the napkin out from underneath the pie before putting the minute amount of piping hot custard, the container of which had no handle and burnt my fingers, over the pie, which by the way contain 95% crumble to 5% fruit. Very poor.
H. H.
Lots of choices, good vegetarian choices.
s. W. (.
The Spencer arms can be a bit hit and miss depending on the manager. I've been a few times and my last visit, just after Christmas and before new years, was exceptional. We were celebrating a birthday and had a toddler. Though it was busy, the food was gorgeous, the staff were incredible and very accommodating. A few things had ran out from their menu but this didn't dampen the experience. Ps: would highly recommend ringing ahead to book a table rather than just turning up.
P. P.
Went recently with three of our grandchildren on way home from steam rally. The children were made welcome and have their own menu. The food was good and value for money and the service could not be faulted. We I recommend this place the answer is yes.
P. Z.
Old building, lovely staff and menu
R. B.
Excellent food, reasonable prices. Staff were extremely friendly and attentive. Only a short visit from Scotland but will certainly come back the next time we come down.
J. C.
Just had Sunday lunch... .I can't say my slow cooked shoulder of lamb was inspiring unfortunately. Pudding was okay if
microwaved. I really don't think my review deserved 3 stars. More like 2.
K. M.
Great food great staff great atmosphere
J. G.
A bit disappointed, as we have been lots of times and really enjoyed until today, arrived 1pm on sun (party of 5) and previously had extensive menu but this time it was the reduced sun menu, we asked for starter sharing dishes from extensive menu( which we have had previously) which was served, but seemed to be alot smaller than previous visits!. then ordered fillet steak on sun menu and they had run out at 1pm?. so ordered ribeye which was quite tough. 25 minute wait for puddings, Service was not as good as previous visits.
P. W.
Food was decent enough for a chain but charged me wrong, waitress wasn't interested so had to deal with manager who was apologetic and sorted.
B. C.
Great birthday meal for 10 of us
M. D.
Nice food, good staff even under the new restrictions
Gorgeous locals 😉😁
D. D.
Nice Brunch menu this weekend
D. L.
3 of us went for my elderly Father in Law's birthday
Unfortunately F in L steak wasn't good and when we mentioned it, it was acknowledged but that's all even though they had been told it was his birthday
My wife and I meals were good but just took the edge off the visit
We do go there fairly regularly and this experience was unusual
L. H.
A lovely meal, served with a smile. The food was hot and plentiful. Good pub food, not your tiny meals with a few items on the plate and then you pay a high price. Fully recommend this cosy, welcoming pub.
T. B.
Visited the Spencer Arms this afternoon, myself, my wife and two friends, been many times and as usual the staff were very friendly, the food was very nice, no complaints whatsoever. No doubt will see you soon.
J. G.
Stopped off on a whim and delightful whim it was too! Manager very friendly and welcoming along with all the staff. Bargain delicious steak for a tenner on a Saturday as a deal. Love it!
E. C.
Hadn't eaten here for some time. Pleasantly surprised. Food was lovely, staff very friendly and nice decor. Found the prices very reasonable too Will definitely come back at a weekend
M. W.
Good food at a decent price. Let down slightly by the fact they'd messed our booking up. They did find us a table fairly quickly but then the restaurant was half empty.
p. b.
Good food, excellent service & delightful staff. Reasonable prices too.
A. A.
Decent food and the staff are helpful and cheerful. I'd definitely go again.
J. F.
The only reason I gave 3 stars was due to our waitress and being able to sit outside. Not busy at all but an hour's wait between courses, had to remind staff we had not been served, then food over-cooked. Disgraceful.
G. S.
Food was good and good value as we had a voucher for 33% off food. Service was friendly and great at start of meal but our waiter disapeared for anout 30 to 40 minuets and we waited for ages for bill then gsve up and went to the bar to pay
B. S.
Excellent food great service can't wait to go back and very well priced

Went there late at night 9pm. Served without any issue. Food hot and tasty. Loved the bubble and squeak and the cookie dough dessert was amazing..
R. N.
Went for our Christmas dinner...sadly slow service(not enough waiters) booked 2 months in advance) waited 45 min for drinks...after arrival- after having to get up and ask....for the price? Not again.
T. A.
Been twice, one for Sunday lunch which was very reasonably priced and the portions were superb. The second visit was to celebrate a wedding anniversary and again the choice was good, prices good service good and food brilliant!!
N. H.
Thank you so much for having the 4 of us at lunch today. The meal and service was fabulous. All your staff were perfect. Thank you
J. M.
Busy pub with limited seating in bar area but can sit in restaurant area of space free. Quite a cold pub with a nasty draft coming from the non existent door towards the toilets . Good selection of drinks;priced fairly. Not keen on the food as the few times I have a ten there has been some sort of issue with my food choices .
S. &. S.
Great service and delicious food.

M. D.
Nice decor and setting. Food we had was good. No long wait ( it was a Thu afternoon though ). Could have had more staff on. But on the whole, cannot complain.
M. W.
Absolutely superb. The food was delicious, the service was attentive without being over the top. Will definitely come back again!
V. B.
Excellent food and service. So good will probably go back today whilst still in the area.
G. R.
New menu with slow service
M. C.
OK, can use Tesco vouchers, 3 for 1 now instead of 4 for 1 that it used to be. Used to be able to use vouchers on deals too, but not any more. Overall, prices have increased slightly as well. Cost of drinks is really high, small bottle of sparkling water £3-85 Pint of Guiness £4-10, bottle of Prosecco £17-99. Food was reasonable, but nothing to write home about. Just had 3 courses each for 8 family members + drinks for a little over £300- A few years back It would have been 4 stars, only 3 now.
L. K.
A very nice pub ...well worth a visit and the food was amazing.

Friendly welcome and service, food was nicely presented.
S. W.
Lovely pub in a lovely village, but they must have slow Internet up here because news that stodgy, bland, unimaginative food, boiled-to-death vegetables, and inept amateur service are no longer acceptable, and haven't been since the 1980s, clearly hasn't yet reached this part of Northamptonshire.
T. P.
Good family meal had there. Great service and staff.
