The Smoke Pit - Northampton

Great venue & options offering services from company lunch meetings to family/friends meet up.

Friendly, accommodating staff and the food is always E P I C !

Tasty food , meat was succulent, had a lovely time

Lovely food and atmosphere as alway! Looking forward to our next visit.

This was our second visit to this restaurant and I have to say we were both disappointed. I went with one of the special steaks and it was flavourful but a lot of chewy grisly bits in it. The beef Brisket with the nachos was lacking in flavour and my husband said his meal was OK but nothing special. The service was OK but when the bill comes in at £80 for 2people I expected the meal to be better. As I said came here a couple of years ago and was blown away. We have been out of the country and was really looking forward to trying here again it just didn't match up to the previous standards set.

Great service and great food, loved my 50oz steak :)

Outstanding food. Great environment. My kids love it there. Very clean and great service too.

Staff friendly for the most part. Though the guy who greeted us and showed us to our table was not very welcoming. I had ribs which I thought were slightly undercooked and hard to tell what was fat and what was meat. Overall a basic service, mediocre meal and basic environment. Probably too basic for me overall. I don’t think I’ll be returning.

Amazing food and attentive service would recommend and will be returning

Table between guests are too close together. Tables too long for two people to hear each other

The chefs continue to delight our family with new and interesting dishes; the duck and squid starter (a special) is to die for. Absolutely fabulous food. Best restaurant I’ve known in years.

First time visiting with family. Lovely place, lovely staff and delicious food. Thank you

Great food and atmosphere but can be noisy when it gets busy

Great atmosphere, trendy with a relaxed vibe! Friendly staff and great food

Great service Great food Great atmosphere Hood with kids and with Granpa too

Fun and nice place to eat with friends and family

As usual - amazing food and amazing drinks. Absolutely one of the best places to eat in Northampton town! Thank you again.

Absolutely brilliant, exactly what I expected, definitely would go again.

Always good food, fast service, great for all the family.

I had the chicken and ribs combo, was a large portion. Chicken wings were really good, ribs were a little tough. But overall the whole trip was nice.

Excellent food. Great value for money. Even had the choice to take my leftovers home.

Had the potential in busier times for good fun atmosphere. Food seemed heated up rather than cooked fresh so expensive for quality sadly.

Excellent food, super helpful staff, will definitely eat here again.

Always amazing food and staff and atmosphere a must go!!!

Staff were great, attentive at the right level and helpful with menu choices. It was busy so we had to wait a while but ambience was also great so it was not a problem. Food was generally really good for everyone. The only thing I will say is that I asked for marmite cheesy chips but with only a little marmite and they were smothered, flavour was overpowering so I couldn’t eat them. Also, the pulled jackfruit would be better served in a bun with coleslaw, it was way too spicy without being nestled with coleslaw. Overall though, we had a great dining experience and will be back. Good that they cater for vegans, veggies and gluten intolerance now so much more inclusive.

Good food and good service as always Thank you very much

Enjoyed the food which was very tasty. Good service and great value.

Food, drink and atmosphere were all amazing! We loved it.

Good food, nice atmosphere, friendly staff. Good selection of drinks.

Good food, service very slow and hard to get anyone’s attention for anything which was a shame !

Lovely food. Friendly staff. Can’t recommend this place enough 🐄🐖🐓😋

A little bit noisy but not to bad. The rest makes up for it

Quality food, quality service.....can’t ask for any more than that

Great food as always and great service! Good choice for a gluten free menu also

Fabulous food, drinks & service. Loved it so much 😊

Superb food and service. Loved it. Will definitely be going back!

Food great, service great. A little expensive in comparison to TGI Fridays for example.

Food was nice and warm and very tasty. The waiter foolishly encouraged my father to have several long island iced tea and he passed out when returning home.

We were greeted at the door and shown straight to a table. However it was a bit disappointing to be sat near the toilets .. perhaps this cpuld be sectioned off abit further away. Luckily though,there were no bad smells as there was a small corridor before the male and female toilet doors. The waiting staff were friendly and gave us time to order when we hadn't decided. They responded well to all queries and served our food with good manners and smiles. A slight improvement would be for all of our food to come at the same time. The food was well presented and tasted good so we were really satisfied.

Wasn’t as nice as my previous visit, the steak was burnt around the edges and gave to much of a smoked taste.
