A great first port of call if you're looking for something just a little bit special. They offer a…read moreselection of high quality dried goods as well as a great selection of pre prepare gourmet meals which are defiantly worth a try. I often go for they gravy which is delicious and while there its also worth getting some preserves and sauces. If you're only going to visit once definitely go at Christmas when they have a fantastic array of festive goods including some which can be wrapped and given as a hamper is required. Be prepared to pay for this kind of quality though especially some of the fresh locally sourced goods this is definitely a place for treats not the weekly shop!

I visited this place on Sat 1st Feb, Knowing the tea shop has been in this town for quite some…read moreyears and expected a half decent standard of customer appreciation. I walked in with my partner.........a girl who was serving ( fully tattooed arm on show, bright red dyed hair) looked in our direction ....looked away... . We found ourselves a seat and looked through the menu, ..for about 5 mins, during which red hair/tattoo girl continued to ignore our presence. We waited another 5 mins until my partner approached red/tattoo to discuss our order.........the girl spoke very abruptly in an Eastern European accent and suggested she would serve us when she can........delightful!. After another few minutes of being ignored my partner and I decided to leave and walked up the road about 50 yards. We came across 'Dreams Coffee Lounge'. The experience in this place was a complete contrast to Lawrence's. We were greeted upon arrival, shown to a table (the place was extremely busy too!) and treated very courteously. We will return to Dreams Coffee Lounge. We wont return to Lawrence's.

The Greggs in Northampton is an absolute master shop when it comes to food like cookies or…read moresandwiches, as is every Greggs around the UK. This place does warm food like sausage rolls and pastries, which tastes better than ever, especially when you are hungry. The sandwiches are as fresh as they can be and the cookies are the top. They have all sorts of cookies you can pick from, so everyone can get what they wish for. This Greggs is located at a perfect place in Northampton town centre, where a lot of banks are. I also work at the local bank and I and my mates go here at lunch to get a sandwich or a roll. The staff is very friendly and chatty too.

Food selection was good; soup was OK but sandwiches and salads were excellent.
