"the evening meal for two was an excellent one that surpassed the expected surpass. some interesting dishes on the menu: for the main thing was the ochsenwange tasty, tender and with a delicious jus, while the numb with noodles was also very good. However, the treacle disc should contain treacle, not only sirup. beautiful dining room in an old hotel and excellent service by eliza."

We used to live near Oundle 25 years ago, and were looking around to find a restaurant where we could meet friends just before the Christmas break who were travelling from Northampton. When we arrived we were shown to our table, and from the almost hostile dismissive 'welcome should have walked out there and then. In short the service was incredibly slow and poor, I ordered the blade of beef on horseradish mash with red cabbage. When it arrived I thought they had forgotten to place the beef, but on investigation I found some. It was so small I thought I had become a vegetarian without asking! My wife 's was just the same. The mash was tepid, and hardly flavoursome. In all disgraceful. Our fr...
I’ve been frequenting the Talbot for over 12 years and the building is stunning. The location is beautiful but there are more flaws than positives of late. Staffing levels have fallen so poorly they cannot offer the service the destination requires. Went for Sunday lunch with friends yesterday. Was told there would be a 45 min wait as we had not booked, we could have a couple of drinks first, no problem. The actual wait was over 2 hours whilst the place wasn’t that busy. When the food actually arrived, my beef was so tough. It’s snapped in half and that’s not exaggeration. The owners either have to sell up or invest some money in staff numbers and training. This is the first time I’ve ever b...
We were staying at the hotel so decided to eat in. It is a nice room with a wonderful troupe l’oeil on the wall. It was quite busy with lots of business guys who were staying at the hotel, so there was a nice atmosphere. The food is solid 3 star hotel affair perfect acceptable but not top class! My wife liked her pear starter and trout main. My main of a chicken pie was slightly tasteless but all sorted by adding a slug of white wine! My only suggestion is that the kitchen stick to the description my starter of smoked mackerel pate was delicious and came with Melba toast, except it didn’t. It was served with 4 nachos. There’s no bread in nachos! I question it and was fobbed off with “I can b...
Terrible food. Hardly any selection. £25 for a chicken burger? I don't think so. There's more to Vegan life than Linda McCartney sausages, £16 for the vegan meal sausage mash!! also would have been nice if they were cooked properly. Waiting staff failed to offer us information on the food had to get management involved. Wont be coming back to this place. Breakfast was not cooked properly and I was ill afterwards.
