Had a few issues during meal but they were dealt with and apologies given. Table we had was a little small when you have drinks, food and sides.
Great atmosphere and huge portions - be warned... go easy on the starters. Closest equivalent to an American steak restaurant that I’ve visited outside of New York. Good quality steaks and cooked properly - tender and no ‘dodgy bits’. The sides were excellent. The unlimited soft drinks bar is good for the designated driver and a good range of beers, etc. for everyone else in your party.
Even though we had booked there was a wait of 20 mins to be seated and then a further 40 ish mins for the food to come. My steak was delicious but my partners was slightly fatty. Service was very friendly
Excellent food, friendly service, and an interesting selection of drinks - easily my favourite restaurant in Northampton town centre. The portions are generous, bring your appetite!
Perfect, food and service was amazing, would deffo recommend to anyone!!!! Great environment, great menu choice, portions are huge!!! Can barely love now! Love love loved it!!!
Unlimited wings were amazing. 12 per platter and we had 2 lots for £21.99. Amazing quality and flavour. This is one of my favourite restaurants in Northampton and now I have converted another friend.
Great quality food, good atmosphere and the Coke machine is great fun. Not the cheapest but definitely worth it. One of the best restaurants in Northampton
Ordered drinks that after 20 mins still hadnt arrived, repeatedly had to ask for them to actually get them. Steaks were expensive, not cooked to how asked and were also really tough. Luke Headrun
Food lovely, waitresses helpful, but took about 20 mins to order a first drink !! I appreciate they were busy, but a drink would have made the wait more acceptable
We absolutely love it at the Smoke Pit, fantastic food, great atmosphere and great service - highly recommend. Our 6 year old loves it too
Lovely food and atmosphere. Just wish staff were a bit more attentive. I appreciate it was busy though. Reasonably priced and unlimited coke refills a bonus
Food was amazing. Staff were friendly. After we finished our main meal we were left sitting there for about half an hour with no drinks, no offer for desert, no one came to check on us. It wasn’t busy and there was staff walking about even around where we were sitting and we seemed to get totally ignored.
always brilliant food and service every time we go in. Will always reccomend this place to friends and family. Never miss this place if your in Northampton
Great food, brilliant service, awesome drinks, great value for money. What more do you want or need from a restaurant???? Shall be back soon.
Huge menu, friendly staff, prompt service and AMAZING food 🐮 🐷 🐔 will certainly return again very soon () () () () () () ()
Great night out in smoke pit Steaks are very juicy and tasty One criticism steaks should come with fat chips though not skinny fries lol
3 of us shared a starter for 2 ...we hadn't visited before but I knew portion sizes were generous...and I'm glad we didn't get a starter each as we all struggled to get through our Main courses....We had a bit of a wait but it does state that on the menu if it's busy it may be a while...and the waiting staff also let us know...but to be honest a breather inbetween courses is no bad thing.Food is plentiful, flavoursome and filling..plenty of honest Tucker for your bucks.Atmosphere was loud and bustling.No formalities,very casual and comfortable..Just folk enjoying good food in good company.
We had a great evening, great portion sizes - very full teenagers - well done!! A great children’s menu. Great food, a lovely experience. Thankyou
Nice atmosphere and helpful staff. Everyone left feeling full and well fed. The glass roof became quite dramatic as we goto share in a thunderstorm without getting wet.
The staff were really friendly and helpful for the indecisive. The atmospehe, decor and general vibe was great, it was a proper cool place to eat. It is a little pricey though, hence the 5 not 6.
Awesome place for those with a big appetite. Very filling
Food was lovely we both really enjoyed it however had a to wait a little for dessert as issue with sundae machine. Will definitely be back though as it was worth the wait
We love this place! Food is amazing and staff are always welcoming and friendly 😀
The restaurant had such a lovely atmosphere and the welcomers were very friendly. We were quickly seated and served in plenty of time. Will definitely be visiting again.
Amazing experience and food. Will definitely be coming back! Staff are so friendly and the food is stunning. Would definitely recommend to a friend to say the least!
The best steak i've had for a long time, you be disappointed, top quality food, great selection of beers and drinks, nice friendly atmosphere and service! Top job 👍🏻
The Smokepit is a gem in Northampton! Fantastic food, would recommend the beef & reef platter! Great selection of cocktails and craft beer and always a brilliant atmosphere!
Burgers were extremely dry and waiter didn’t do anything about it when we mentioned it, very disappointed. Had to pay £43.50 and did not get any money off
Tasty barbeque ribs, big portions, coleslaw tasty but a bit greasy. Service good, OK value for money. Would go back, but maybe share a starter and a main.
Great service great food great everything. Will deffo be going back again soon. Great choice of whisky’s Which I was pleased about. 6 out of 6
It was a much nicer experience than previous as it was quieter and we could actually talk. The food was delicious. The waiting staff were really helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend.
Lovely food. Excellent service. The Wagyu steak was great. The only drawback was that the shape of the inside of the building echos sound round and so it was very noisy even though the restaurant wasn't full.
Everyone enjoyed their meals tonight. My only issue was with my Caesar salad- there was too much of one type of lettuce! Could of used different lettuces.
Great food. Great service. Lousy atmosphere. Full of drunken idiots shouting obscenities. And this was at 5:30 in the evening! Get some people on the door and don’t serve drunks.
The food was fantastic and we all enjoyed our lunch at The Smoke Pit - Northampton. We look forward to returning on our next visit ;-)
Really good food & friendly staff. Prices are a little on the high side even for the cheapest burger meal. Decent selection of beers and shakes though.
Love this place. I live near London and nothing there can even beat this place in the of quality, ambience, selection. It's just so unique! Please don't change!
Fantastic food and atmosphere would recommend and great for families.
A great setting bountiful food prompt and courteous staff and very good service as well as value. Portion size large selection very good choices galore
A fantastic place. These guys really know their meat. Great food cooked with care and passion. Massive portion sizes. It does pay to book especially at the weekend. A good restaurant is a busy restaurant!
