We chose the stag to host a celebration for near 40 family and friends for lunch and drinks on Sunday afternoon. Rob & team were absolutely fantastic providing us a huge amount of space in the marquee in the garden. The staff were extremely accomodating of last minute food choices (and guests!) and the food service was super efficient, especially given the number of people. We had a fantastic time and our guests have been commenting on how good the food and venue were. The portions were huge, hot, and very reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend the stag, thanks Rob & team for your hospitality!

Please ignore the 2 recent negative reviews from people who went to my friend Dan's wedding yesterday, they're clearly talking out of their rear ends, here's the reality: Rob, the owner, and his team went above and beyond to make Dan's day as good as it could be. The food was excellent, I had the fish and can confirm it was immaculate, I also tried some of my partners hunters chicken and that too was incredible.
The delay in service was actually caused by the guests turning up late and deciding they couldn't be bothered to sit down for their food. The staff actually had to actually throw some food away and cook the meals again because of this.
The wine was actually chosen by the groom so it had nothing to do with the pub and everyone else who drinks wine said that it was nice so those complains are not valid.
The staff were absolutely lovely throughout and, as I said before, worked incredibly hard to make the day amazing.
The pub itself is a proper English pub. It does not look or feel dated at all, it's got the exact vibe you would expect from an English pub. It was built in 1766, so you cannot expect everywhere to be disabled accessible, in many places it's pretty much impossible to add things such as ramps for wheelchairs etc.
So to summarize: The food was incredible, the staff were amazing, the pub as a whole is a lovely place and the negative reviews from the wedding are total rubbish.
If I'm back in the area, I will most definitely be popping in for a meal or at least a drink again.

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.

Walkability: We sometimes walk to the pub and we walk past a track that goes from Northampton to Market Harborough which is great for cyclist walkers and dog walkers.
Food & drinks: The food for us is well made and served on time. They have a variety of beers and wines. We have never left the pub feeling disappointed with what we have eaten or what we have had to drink.

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!
