Visited Brasserie 23 at the Kings Head, Spratton on Saturday last. Fabulous meals cooked to order by top chef Daniel Tompkins.
I had the roast chicken breast (excellent) but having seen the beef cheek bourguignon and mushrooms on the plate opposite me I'll be back for that while it remains on the menu.
A really delicious meal and a great evening - thanks Danny and staff.
Mum treated us to a meal out at the weekend so we booked a table. Mum is 89 on Friday and has a small appetite but they had no problem in adjusting her portion size for the macaroni cheese.
I had the burger 23 and my husband had ham, egg and chips.
The burger was one of the best I have ever eaten and the chips were divine.
My husband thought the quality of ham was awesome.
Mum loved her meal and finished it all which is most unusual!
Needless to say, two of us had room for pudding.
Staff were brilliant even though the place was busy. Lovely for us all to see Jo.
If you love great tasting food made with quality ingredients then you must come here.
The 7 of us had a fantastic meal here on Saturday, we couldn't fault anything; the menu was seasonal, food was delicious and the service wonderful. I would recommend a visit - we shall certainly be returning!
Went for dinner last night (Saturday) and had mentioned at time of booking that I would like a vegan meal. I had starter, main course and dessert all 3 were amazing and inventive..instead of the normal non meat choice you get elsewhere.
The bar/eating area was casual but very modern, clean and welcoming. The staff were attentive but not over bearing.
I would definitely go again and will definitely recommend others to go aswell
Cannot fault Natalie or Danny in their food, setting, or atmosphere. Both times I've eaten here I've played a game of imagining how the food will be presented and for each meal I'm always pleasantly surprised that, aesthetically, it exceeds what I anticipated.
Excellent choice of food that doesn't overcomplicate needlessly, easily in my top three places to eat in the county.
We had a special afternoon tea made for a family get together the sandwiches were so very fresh and really lovely then came the cakes wow wow wow fresh scones with lots of cream and Jam little chocolate brownies tiny lemon tarts and lots of tea and coffee. The staff were just wonderful. So a big thank you to you all
Just a coffee today (Which was excellent) but this place is SO much more.! Great food, reasonable price and a relaxed atmosphere. Coffee or a full on blow out, this is one if the best places to enjoy a break.
Had a fabulous meal on Christmas Eve, we had three courses off the Christmas menu. I cannot complain about anything especially the beef rib, it was so tender it fell off the bone. Staff were friendly and excellent as was the wine. Will definitely be coming back again.
Fabulous food. Can highly recommend the chicken tandoori salad. Best tandoori chicken ever! Recommended by our exceptional waitress! Will definitely return!
I've just had the best Birthday meal lovely tasty food fantastic range of drinks great staff who made my day really special Thank you x
Went on new years eve and omg the food, every course was outstanding, couldn't fault anything and even down to the service, staff and atmosphere, weldone we will defiantly be back soon

Excellent food and service. The menu is perfect with a great choice of food. The wine was recommended to my husband which he thought was amazing.
Stunning food, great customer service. Couldn't recommend this place enough.
Excellent food & service.Will definitely recommend it & be eating here again.
Super meal at Brasserie 23 . Food was excellent and staff very welcoming and attentive . Can thoroughly recommend it �
We booked our wedding reception here on 8th July.
Food, service and atmosphere was amazing. Jo and the team really looked after us
Recommend this place to anyone �
Will be back very soon!!!
Have not had such a good dining experience since a Michelin star in Oban. Exquisite menu, chef showing some real talent. I’m not normally a fish man but the lemon sole was to die for. I’ve seen many cheese boards and the cheese was good but the biscuits were a wow - really unusual I know but please try it. Have no hesitation in recommending this with a decent wine list what’s not to love. Food of this quality is worthy of support.
Had a great meal with my wife.
She enjoyed the Aberdeen Angus steak 🥩 and l enjoyed the bream
Absolutely amazing. The food is great here. Not the cheapest but very high quality. So tasty and worth the money. One of the nicest restaurants in the area. It has atmosphere and the staff are really friendly. Overall the food is superb and I recommend, we will definitely visit again
What an amazing experience at the Kings l had with friends. The food did not disappoint- succulent scallops, juicy fillet steak, amazing desserts. Only downside is that if you have an allergy or intolerance its not clearly written on any dish ( gluten,dairy,nuts etc). I had to ask for a dish if it contained dairy but besides that it was amazing. Remember to bring lots of wonga!!£££ worth it
Best restaurant I've visited, food is amazing
Impeccably presented culinary masterpieces served in a pleasant restaurant with polished wooden tables and floor. It appears that the evening menu changes monthly. Ours included pigeon breast, lamb rump, ox cheeks, monkfish and steak burger. The vegetarian option was charred Romanesco. I would recommend the restaurant for a celebration - the menu and food is special. It is pricier than your average fayre, but the experience is way above average! Expect to pay £30 - £50 for two courses, £10 for a dessert. A good choice of wine by the glass or bottle. Very clean throughout, all tables backed by clear Covid-screens which were present but not imposing. Attentive table service with bell (although never had need to use it). Well stocked bar and wonderful wine. Very pleasant staff. Village is located in lovely rolling countryside not far from Holdenby (house) and Brixworth (Anglo Saxon church), easy to get to from both Northampton and the A14. Car park at rear.
Can't wait to return !
Pleasant setting, sophisticated food, great flavours combination. I highly recommend this gem of a place. Formidable in every way. We were greeted by the owner, shown to our table. Service was impeccable. We will return and sample more of the menu.
We found this place by accident and were truly welcomed on a busy Saturday night on a bank holiday weekend.
The menu is exciting and very well delivered.
The staff are delightful!
We will be back!
Had a really great meal for 2 on a Friday night. Could not fault anything with the food or service! Haven't been for a while and it was good to see that the food is fantastic as ever. My celeriac starter was super tasty and definitely Michelin star quality. I'm very fussy with wine and it's rare to find something on a wine list I like, but they had a fantastic Californian oaky Chardonnay, which sadly is a rare offering in most places. The nice relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff topped the evening off. Will be back very soon! Thanks ...Sarah

A fabulous location of a restaurant, especially on a sunny day, where we sat outside for pre dinner drinks. I had the liver Parfait for starter which was beautiful and the Sea bass for mains which was equally tasty.
The issue that we had as a Birthday party group was that we pre warned and booked 4 people in out party as vegetarians (including the birthday girl) and required the vegetarian Sunday dinner, unfortunately this wasn't fully communicated as the vegetarian roast was just the vegetables without gravy. The gravy was unfortunately meat gravy and we had to ask for an alternative which was a mushroom or tomato sauce which wasn't ideal as these were just sauces from other meals on the menu. It would be great if there was a specific sunday roast for veggies, like a nut roast or maybe a flat mushroom with breadcrumb as the main element.
In reflection dessert was absolutely amazing for us all, the warm mousse is to die for!
I love this restaurant alot, and I think Danny and Jo have made it fabulous, just a bit of thought into a vegetarian roast would be perfect!
Delicious dinner and great service. This is a real hidden gem and visited after being recommended. Being gluten free was no issue and our waitress was so helpful and ensured everything was adapted for me. Lovely setting, delicious food.
A memorable meal, the presentation of food and flavours are 5 *, service fantastic, will be back
Overall a good night as the food is extremely good. Prices are a little high. Service was not brilliant , first drinks info was poor and not that friendly, only a couple of food menus were available so we had to share, main wine menu needed to be requested and final bill was incorrectly showing a second bottle of wine. It strikes us that the food, if consistent, could be in the 1 Michelin bracket, but front of house would need to improve.
Food is really stunning and staff were fantastic. Super impressed with levels taken to keep customers safe whilst maintaining a beautiful interior.
Without doubt one of the best meals we've had in a very long time. The presentation and quality of the food is outstanding and the service exceptional. A lovely pub atmosphere with delicious food, would highly recommend.
First visit & genuinely pleased with whole experience. Staff were welcoming, charming & very attentive throughout. We were recommended & so glad to eat here as food was superb. Had prawns starter with lovely monkfish main, well presented & very tasty. Would recommend & definitely be back, it is not cheap but all about good value, quality of food & the experience. Thank you for a great evening.
