George and staff quite honestly are awesome. The right people help make any establishment, but this place has three other points that put this great little spot on the map. BEER I'm always impressed by a place that takes its' beer seriously, and the Wooden Walls does not disappoint, even within walls so close together. They have several awesome cask ales on tap as well as authentic Guinness, Peroni, and a host of others - each available in the perfect glassware for the pour. GREAT FOOD The food here really is wonderful. Traditional fare such as fish and chips and Yorkshire pudding are perfect. Additionally though, there are a host of other more adventurous pairings that are equally exquisite. Crab cakes are great, the jenga fries are creative and delicious. You really can't go wrong. ATMOSPHERE This place has a wonderful, quaint atmosphere about it. It's small, intimate setting is a great blend of modern accents on old world charm. Fresh and clean setting. This place is just a short hop off of the M1, and totally worth it.

If you eat in the bar area you go to the bartender order your drink of choice and meal. Hint...if you only feel like a half portion of fish and chips you can order a half order and for me it's a perfect portion of food. They do have a bar menu too if you don't want fish and chips. But really who goes to a pub in England and not order fish and chips. This is the place to do so. They do have a restaurant but I believe you need a reservation for that. Worth every bit for a nice meal out and I believe that the menu is a bit different.

It turns out the pub had belonged to previous generations of current landlords Pauls family and there are various pictures (and copies of original lease) around the bar to prove it. We had a wonderful meal in the restaurant then back to the bar for a couple more drinks and more chat with the friendly locals. It turns out they even offer a free lift home service for evening diners which could come in very handy indeed. They also do all sorts of other specials such as steak nights and meal deals along with a beer festival and even a sponsered bungy jump! All in all a pleasant proper country pub with excellent food and drinks and a great atmosphere.

It's a solid bar with a wide selection of beers, including some unusual finds from places like Norway, and more locally, some experimental English brewers. Which is to say, don't come here if you're looking for the standard selection of ales and lagers, as there's no shortage of that at any other pub in Northampton. Instead, Bar Hygge features some local and not-so-local craft brews. Of course, there's no shortage of beer-of-the-moment IPAs, but they also have Westmalle Dubbel, a superb dark Belgian Trappist ale. I have two points of contention, though: dissimilar service and a limited food menu. Starting with food, it's tasty but limited. Think of sandwich tapas. I had three of them, and each was nicely prepared aesthetically, and also flavourful. You can also put together your own meat and cheese plate. Just be warned its a pretty niche menu so you may be disappointed. The other point is dissimilar service. On my first trip here, I was allowed to open a tab while sitting outside. However, on my second trip I was told I could only start a tab if I was sitting inside. It's not a big deal, but nice to be extended this courtesy on one day, and disappointing the next. Still, these two relatively minor points don't significantly detract from what is otherwise a refreshing and unique choice for a drink in Northampton, for which Royal and Derngate should be commended, their vision for Northampton continues to shape the surrounding areas into a great town center.

OWH is the old style, log on fire, low lights, country pub from romantic films based in the Scottish Highlands but with better fittings and a Tapas menu. The main and Tapas menus have a good range of dishes but are on a slightly higher echelon than regular pub grub, which keeps with the whole atmosphere of the place. The highlight, other than the many event nights (Tusedays for movies), has to be the large garden with patio heaters and a long covered area with more heaters. Really good for the BBQ parties in the summer (if they ever come back). As well as all these features, the OWH also boasts a function room for private parties. A class act of a pub, high standards both inside and out with food and service to match.
