Hops and Chops

Best Sunday lunch I’ve eaten in a restaurant for ages, highly recommend. The staff really friendly and helpful. Great food choices in lovely surroundings, also plenty of different gin selections.

Quite small but does have wheel chair accessibility. Our table was on the higher level next to railings and waiting staff thought it it ok to pass drinks through railing rather than actually come to our table. Menu limited. You get a smal side with you meal ie small fries or a green salad, anything else is extra. Huge list of beers but none British so hubby had no idea what he was ordering. We had the smoked half chicken which was ok, nothing special. I had the green side salad and when I asked about a salad dressing I got a strange look and they basically brought me some herbs in oil as didn’t have balsamic or anything. It’s different, a bit more expensive but not worth the effort.

Nice atmosphere, interesting and delicious food. Great cocktails!!! Highly recommended.

Good food, pleasant, helpful staff,nice surroundings, extensive menu with good, varying choices. This was our first visit but won't be our last. All in all a good experience.

Relaxed atmosphere, attentive service, great food , this was our first time at Hops and Chops we invited friends to join us as we have been given a very positive recommendation, and we were not disappointed

Brilliant food and excellent service from all the staff! Great steaks especially the 18 oz T bone! With a modern decor and comfortable atmosphere we will be back!

Food was really good - steak was probably the best I’ve ever eaten. Not bad value and the gin menu is incredible! Will definitely be back

They made mistakes with some food...it didn’t have everything it was supposed to have. The waitress forgot drinks orders quite a lot. Very pricey. Tasty food.

As ever brilliant service and great tasting food - along with an eviable gin menu and friendly atmosphere. A lovely way to spend an evening

Lovely surroundings and a good indoor temperature....just right for the humid temperatures outside. Food was really good quality, nicely presented etc. Huge choice of drinks. Didn't really rate the coffee....sorry. Good service throughout the lunch.

Great food, great venue and the staff were helpful and very friendly. The food was fantastic we both had completely different food, both were as good as each other.

Lovely food in a very pleasant environment. Good choice of menu. Sunday roast was excellent and the steaks are also very good. Well worth the money.

Amazing food and excellent waitresses who definitely know there stuff. The gin menu I left them to suprise us! The Parma violet gin is highly recommended. We shall be back! Finally quality good in Northampton!! Well done Hops and Chops

Had a lovely meal with the wife. Food was excellent great choice of drinks service superb and all reasonably priced for a top restaurant 👍🏻

Lovely food. Lovely people. Lovely atmosphere. Booking was easy and the knowledgeable staff really helped make this an excellent evening! The gin and beer menus are immense as well of course as the MEAT!

All round very pleasant night great food with good ambiance Staff very cheerful also will be going back some other time . Visited on a recommendation not disappointed at all

Gorgeous food and excellent service, great choice of meals and drinks on the menu and all fantastically well presented. Will definitely return and recommend to others.

Food was fantastic, staff friendly and helpful. Only criticism is we had a baby with us and the food took a while to come out.

Food was excellent, however some of the seats are not very comfortable! Other than that the place was great. Has a good variety on the menu.

The food was amazing and tasted so good and the service was spot on very attentive :) I will defiantly be returning especially for the gin :)

I went to Hops and Chops for an impromptu Sunday roast dinner. It was easily the best roast dinner I’ve had for sometime and was followed by a really clever gin poached pear dessert. The surroundings and staff were great as was the gin menu with over 50 gins!

Best food in Northampton, polite service and all round pleasant experience. Best steaks I have ever eaten. Would recommend to any one and every one

Absolutely superb restaurant Great menu Great drinks selections Great staff We cannot fault the service or quality of the food. Really nice atmosphere Not our first visit and wont be our last

Great food great service. It was just very noisy when we there couldn’t really hear to talk. Maybe a 1 off lot of large parties

Fabulous staff and great food! We opted for an early sitting @ 6pm. The best way to describe this restaurant is by the way we witnessed the staff interact together... They are attentive but casual, honest with reccomendations and confident with it and they are a family that work incredibly freely and efficiently. The food compliments this environment perfectly.. wholesome, perfectly presented, flavours effortlessly created through a creative thought process using fabulous ingredients. A restaurant that is worthy of slowly but surely working your way through every dish on the menu! A must try! Thanks for having us 😊

The food was fantastic, even though there was a party of 10 there was not a single complaint about any of the meals. The service was also fantastic. I would highly recommend Hops and Chops and will definitely be going again.

Great food, nice atmosphere and setting. Plently if choice in both food and drink. Easy to book on line as well. Will definately be back.

Amazing food !! Recommend to anyone looking for a good meal. The steaks are another level. Staff are all friendly. Great night out, great food!!!

The food was good, but we had to wait half an hour for our starter to arrive. Good atmosphere, so long as it's not too busy and a good drinks menu. Service was alright.

We both had the Sunday roast and a dessert, all of which was delicious. Second visit here are very dufficult to find fault with anything.

Found the staff wonderful. Took time to explain beverage questions (brought different gins to our table to illustrate) as well as our questions on the menu. The food was great as well as our evening in general.

Tremendous food. Atmosphere, service by the staff, selection of beers & gins was excellent too. Will return and would thoroughly recommend it to others too

Great little place but can get quite noisy due to the low ceiling. I was excited to try it out as I'm a fan of sister establishment, 'The Smoke Pit' in Central Northampton. To be honest, it's the little sister to Smoke Pit and is like a decent restaurant as they serve a slightly wider array of food. With the name as it is, I got the meat that I was expecting, but the craft beer is limited to only 2 beers on tap (2/3 pint only) and lots of overpriced bottles, rather than having a wide selection on tap - one bottle was priced at over £7 (not sure of the size as it's not given). The food arrived in decent time, well presented and tasted great (my medium rare Rib Eye was a bit more medium than I'd have liked but I'll just order rare next time). Would recommend for a more intimate setting than Smoke Pit but I'd ask to be seated somewhere in one of the corners, especially if it's busy!

Friendly staff, great ambience and superb food . . . . . . . what's not to love ? Thoroughly recommend for that special night out ! Will be going again for sure ! !

Great food, great environment, great atmosphere. Food little slow hence a 4 not a 5. Recommend even so - we’ll definitely be back very soon.

Hops and Chops provide excellent top quality food, a superb selection of craft beers and gins along with excellent service, i can say no more other than i highly recommend you visit soon!!

Excellent service, amazing steaks and a great variety of beers and gins. This is my fourth visit and it gets better each time. See you again soon

Great food , lovely atmosphere. This was the third time we’ve been and can’t wait to go back! The only criticism is that the wine list is very confusing!

Great new place for meat lovers. They’re very busy and atmosphere is good so book in advance.

Nice to try different venues for Sunday lunch This was very nice and meat cooked lovely Please don’t put butter on the veg though But overall another good visit

Excellent food, steak was cooked perfectly medium rare and great selection of beers

Amazing steaks & gammon, recommend the prawns to go with! Cocktails perfect.

Simply amazing steaks in a great venue, everything else, very good also 😋

Great new venue for all meat lovers. Quality meals, good service and a nice feel to the place

The food was amazing, tasted so nice. The staff were very attentive and always approaching asking if we were ok and if we needed anything. The noise levels in the restaurant was high, but it was very busy so I would expect that. Overall I had a great experience and would recommend going to anyone

Excellent food and service. Looking forward to going again and trying more from the menu.

It’s not as big as you think so bigger party tables can be very noisy. There were some girls on a table next to us very noisy and kept screaming when they laughed. But it didn’t spoil our night at all,just in case you were expecting it to be very quiet it isn’t as it’s always full

It’s only just opened but nowhere near as good as it’s sister restaurant the smoke pit but it can only get better

Fantastic food, incredible steaks. Great craft beer and gin menu

The ribeye steak was by far the best I’ve ever had
