  “The staff here are amazing. Very friendly and always seem very happy to help and make conversation with you. They’re also very quick to rectify when things don’t go as planned. Unfortunately I have found the food to be problematic. Every time I’ve been there has either been a part of my meal that has not been cooked correctly, burnt or in some cases the entire meal was unpleasant. As I said the staff are always very quick to offer a replacement or complimentary item however, when it happens every time it becomes hard to ignore. It can make it difficult to go out for a meal as you don’t know what you’re going to get and sometimes you don’t want to have to make a fuss. I understand there may be mild inconsistency dependent on the chef working but I think it’s not too much to ask that a certain standard of cooking is always upheld. All that being said, the menu is fairly varied, the staff are lovely and the food is all well-priced. Just a shame that sometimes it’s nice and other times it’s not”

  “We had a lovely meal here with my partner and our toddler. All of the staff were welcoming and friendly, especially Liz, who went above and beyond to make us feel looked after. While we were queuing for the carvery, she thoughtfully placed a colouring pack on our table for our little girl, which was a lovely touch and kept her entertained. The service was excellent throughout. We arrived at around 11am, and it was nice and quiet, although it became much busier about half an hour later. Overall, a great experience, and we'd happily visit again.”

  “The food is great value and the service was excellent. Friendly staff and short waiting times with a decent pub meal. The cakes are gigantic and everything was reasonably priced by today's standards. Would definitely go back.”

  “Held a family gathering here that we had booked in advance, had a last minute change of numbers and this was accomodated for no problem at all. Booking was easy to do, due to our group size being 17 I used the automated booking service via telephone, took less than 5 minutes to do. Service during our meal was fantastic, food arrived quickly and all our separate orders came out very close together. Food was really good, desserts were a definite favourite, massive portion sizes and huge variety of options. Staff couldn't do enough to help us & make sure we were well catered for. Every member of staff we came across was really friendly and couldn't do enough to ensure we were okay. The air con was also a huge bonus! My only gripe was that a vegetarian carvery is charged the same price as a meat one yet there was no meat alternative offered which seemed a shame. The carvery was lovely though, plenty of fresh and very hot options. Will definitely be returning - thank you!”

  “While travelling through Northampton today, I stopped for lunch at Poppy Field Farm with my disabled mother, and I couldn’t have been more impressed with the experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. The restaurant was spotless, and our food was served promptly with genuine smiles all round. I ordered the mixed grill with peppercorn sauce, and it was cooked to perfection. Every element of the meal was delicious and exactly what I was hoping for. My mother chose the all-day breakfast and thoroughly enjoyed every bite. While we were there, we couldn’t help but notice the incredible selection of giant cakes and ice creams on offer, which looked absolutely fantastic and will definitely tempt us on our next visit! A special mention must go to Sasha, who was simply tremendous. Nothing was too much trouble for her. She greeted us with a warm smile, made us feel genuinely welcome, and provided outstanding service throughout our visit. Sasha is a real credit to the company and the brand—professional, caring, friendly, and incredibly accommodating. She deserves every bit of praise and recognition for the wonderful experience she helped create. As someone who travels extensively around the country, I visit a lot of places to eat, and Poppy Field Farm stands out for all the right reasons. I would have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone and will certainly be returning whenever I’m in the area again. Thank you to Sasha and the whole team for making our visit such an enjoyable one.”

  “We have been to Poppy Field Farm as a party of 8 for a surprise party today. I could not recommend this place enough. The staff were so helpful and pleasant and covered every request with a smile! As it was for a surprise, I asked if we could put up some balloons and we brought our own cake. They agreed happily to our request. When we offered to clean up after the toddler had spilled food everywhere, they declined our request and were happy to do this themselves. They even swapped our table when we got there so we could hang up the balloons etc. The food was absolutely divine! It came out really quickly (10-15 minutes), we had a wide selection from the menu and they all came out at the same time. The servers were very pleasant and helpful with placing the food and helped to carry the drinks when we couldn’t carry them all. For the price, this is perfect. Good price for the quality and service. When we are next in the area, we will certainly be coming again. Compliments to the entire team!”

  “Went here for lunch, the food was lovely and everyone seemed to enjoy it. However the staff were rude and inconsiderate. Rolling their eyes and coming across extremely unbothered and frankly as if they didn’t want to be there. It was not a nice experience from them, all young and immature and it felt quite awkward to even go to the bar to pay. Think some serious customer service training is needed and some feedback that even a small smile goes a long way.”

  “Definitely be back to this eatery. Took a while to be greated when we did was told what Booth we was in. We walked ourselves to the booth and there was only 1 menu on the table for 6. No children's menu was on the table and we was not offered one even though the member of staff would have seen we had a 6 year old with us. Good variety menu with also a carvery to boot and to be fair the food was of good standard. Starters came out quick but no offer of kids meal to come out with starters. When kids meal came out with the main plate was very hot but waiter did not warn us. Food main meal food had good portion size and looked really nice. I had the carvery and enjoyed it. Gravy was amazing and tasted homemade. Beef was to be fair best beef I have had at a carvery in a long time. Not too chewy and melted in the mouth. Definitely be back as little one loved the indoor play area and it has a nice family feel to the place. Adjust a few things and this place can easily be a five star eatery.”

  “I ordered from here on uber eats and never ever again!! Currently sat waiting for a different takeaway to save the day, everything was soaking wet and portion sizes was absolutely laughable 9 chips and not to mention the 1 tablespoon of peas my son got and the garlic bread so wet and soggy you can literally squeeze water out of it, the carvery was also stone cold like freezing like its been sat for hours and the mash I could not even break up so safe to say we will never ever be ordering again. Only good thing about the order was the cake! No thank you not for £37 for 3 meals And i am also absolutely shocked someone actually sent this out they most definitely could see it was unacceptable!”

  “So what can I say apart yum yum yum we normally go to Toby carvery. But this place honestly blows it out the water. You actually get good slices of meat and plenty of veggies. The soft drink selection is ok but it’s coke I prefer Pepsi max but regardless this is now are new spot for a carvery made the 75 minute trip twice now and both time come away full and happy. And the staff nice and friendly to that’s always a plus”
