amazing food and drink :-) great service and loved the drinks free vend machine!! raspberry, vanilla and cherry coke all in one! The burger and sides were so tasty! Def need to go back soon! Great place.
Incredible food - although we ended up bringing more home than we ate there! Such amazing value for money would highly recommend Smoke Pit to anyone I know. Thanks
We Visited here in March The food was very good & the service was excellent...price is not to bad either I would defo recommend x
A little loud and busy but food was very nice. Ordered a platter for one and a burger. Very generous portion sizes and friendly staff.
It was excellent again. Amazing food and big portions so they let us take what we couldn't finish home with us. Will definitely be going again.
The food is really great and they have an amazing cocktail menu. The staff are really friendly and the atmosphere is great. Would highly recommend visiting the smoke pit.
Amazing food. Was a Monday night ribs n chicken night. Unlimited but too much to consider a 2nd plate
Amazing food as always and spectacular service by our waitress. She couldn't have been more helpful. It was extremely busy and quite hard to hear each other but that's a small price to pay for such amazing food!
Amazing atmosphere, food was great. They even made up some not on the menu old fashioned smoked cocktails with bacon stirers. Service was great too.
Great food, quick service and friendly staff. I took my husband out for lunch for his Birthday. He loves the meat platter from the smokepit and we both thoroughly enjoyed our meals.
We went there last night, a group of six people. Everyone enjoyed the food, from the huge plate of nachos we chose as starter to the meat wich was very tasty until the dessert! I simply love this place! Highly recommended!
Fantastic restaurant with attentive service great food and a fabulous atmosphere. We went here as a family and had a wonderful time and can't wait to go back again.
Great service, stunning food and wonderful environment. Highly recommend a visit. Try the short rib and wings with blue cheese sauce. The hot link sausage probably my favourite!
Great restaurant! Lovely food, Meaty menu! The main was lovely i had the St louis half stack ribs was nice bit hard to get the meat of the ribs but besides that was lovely. Desert was INCREDIBLE salted caramel cookie with ice cream. delicious!!
Helpful, polite staff. Good food. Minor issue was resolved quickly and painlessly. Lovely atmosphere and generally a great evening. Would eco mend for an informal evening, with great food. Thanks very much.
It wasn't very busy, we was seated straight away, we waited 15 minutes for our drinks, mine was flat and we then waited an extra 30 minutes to order, staff not overly enthusiastic, did get a check back though, will probably go back if the staff smiled and knew what the special of the day was
Patient staff when half our party was 30 mins late, the food was imaginative and tasted fantastic, and the drinks menu contained an amusing set of cocktailes, the coronarita went down rather well.
The restaurant looked really good and the Food was really good quality and great portion sizes, would definitely recommend people visit. Loved the toilets too
Tasty steaks and great service as always. Prices are always reasonable with lovely helpful staff and inventive specials! Their marmite butter is to die for!!!
I have visited The Smoke Pit many times, excellent venue, awesome staff and the food is always first class - what more could you ask for. I have marked noise as average as it's a little noisy but adds to the atmosphere of the place :-)
This was the 6th visit and they never fail to impress. The food was amazing and the service is attentive without being intrusive. Have already booked our next visit.
Amazing place! Would recommend them over and over again! Brilliant food, great choice and the staff are wonderful! If your stuck for anywhere I would say go here!
First time at smoke pit the service was good thought the tables was to close together didn't have privacy as tables next to us could hear our conversation and vice versa.we had the mixed platter for 2 didn't like it at all we took most of it home it all tasted really salty very disappointed
Fantastic food and service, will definitely go again once my stomach has stopped bloating..great value for money, great location and selection of beers and food
A nice well lit airy place to eat so you don't feel hot and sticky while eating their gorgeous food, good value for money. Staff are pleasant and friendly. Well recommend.
Delicious slow cooked barbecue style food served in comfortable surroundings accompanied by a comprehensive and quirky drinks menu. A refreshing, imaginative and welcome addition to Northamptonshire's food scene.
Good food and good service, you won't leave hungry Second time we have been, first time as a party of 10 and second time as a couple, on both occasions we left impressed
It was Great food, friendly service,and a nice place to sit and eat there were 5 of us and we all enjoyed it very much
Fantastic food, great atmosphere, was totally stuffed. Very happy customer. Good prices for the quantity you get. Good music and decor, more interesting than the usual.
Great place, good food - albeit a little pricey. Great décor and attentive staff - awesome selection of drinks, and really kept up with the American theme.
Excellent BBQ food with an amazing smokey flavour. Completely unique to the area and great fun for a special occasion. Very good service, not cheap but still good value.
Lovely food. Huge portions. Good service. Kids said the drinks machine was amazing. Loved the seeet potato fries. Puddings looked good but unfortunately couldn't fit one in!
Only feedback would be that I ordered ravioli children's meal for my baby and it was quite spicy so she ended up just eating the chips. Otherwise, great service, surroundings and food.
Well worth a visit to The Smoke Pit, Northampton if you are a meat fan. I can recommend the pulled pork which comes in a bbq sauce and melts in the mouth. I added beer batter onion rings, sweet potato fries and a dessert and was not disappointed. Service was friendly and prompt, although some tables are quite close together. Nice relaxing feel, it really is about the great food. Portions are generous, but never fear as staff are happy to package any leftovers for you to take home. I will definitely be visiting again to try some else on the menu. Hope you enjoy the food as much as we did.
Amazing food, maybe don't get a started so the main can be fully enjoyed or share one (share the nachos) but it is definitely one of the best restaurants in town.
Great restaurant food was absolutely amazing and reasonably priced. Our waitress was lovely and very helpful. Would definitely recommend to everyone. We also weren't waiting long for the food aswell!
Booking process was fine and we immediately got our table on arrival. Was given our menus and drink order taken. Food was ordered quickly and food arrived shortly after. From there it goes down hill chicken wings where awful and tasted of Tabasco sauce, prawns in batter were plain and bland. Pulled pork served with bread, carrot, gherkin was standard tasted like the chopped up carrot and gherkin had been round a while. chicken burger was ok. Smoke platter was fine. We then asked for the dessert menu no one came back within 15 minutes so we went to the bar and asked for the bill. Only to wait another ten minutes to pay. I wouldn't of minded but it wasn't even busy. With only two girls acting as waitresses, 2/3 men just standing on the front door who only walked round all night and into the bar. No idea what there role actually was other than sit people to there tables And one girl working in the bar. I don't really rate this restaurant.
Fantastic food, great service and atmosphere, loved it. Easy to get to and car parking available very close to the venue. Would highly recommend this place.
Really nice food, had the meat platter which was more than enough for two. This is not the sort of place where you need to worry about having a starter!
Food was lovely staff very helpfull i love this place my 4th time there now will be returning very soon the lunch time menu is great 2 and alot cheaper
Delicious food with massive portions! Friendly and quick service. Great vibe
The staff are very friendly and helpful and the food is plentiful and delicious. I cannot comment on the desserts as I was too full to even try them but I will the next time I go and there will be a next time definitely. Thank you for a thoroughly enjoyable visit.
Great service and food. Generous portions too. It's not the cheapest restaurant, but for what you get, it's worth it. Would highly recommend to anyone
Great atmosphere, really fun and friendly, staff are always very welcoming and attentive. Food is always excellent, especially the platter. Highly recommend this plans to anyone looking for a great night out with great food.
Overall we were very disappointed with the food and service. My first impression was not great when I had to wipe the last customers food off my chair before I could sit down. My husbands prime rib of beef had a massive chunk of uncooked fat in the middle and it was served very rare, which he was not expecting. My pulled beef was over seasoned and tasted extremely salty. So much so I couldn't eat it. Also the onion rings were served dripping in grease. We had no check back during the meal so I was unable to select something else to enjoy while hubby was still eating. After he had finished I was asked but by then it's too late and to be fair I'd been put off by what I'd had. We chose the restaurant for our anniversary meal, but will not be hurrying back anytime in the future.
Very nice food. Great service and quite quick. However I'm not keen on the paper type thing on the trays that the food comes on.
I loved it. It was the god damn best I will go there and million times and eat all the meat and drink all the cocktails
great bad boy beef platter. good selection and perfectly cooked!
We had a great meal this lunchtime. Food was very tasty and the atmosphere / décor are amazing. Especially loved the nachos - can highly recommend
nice friendly service, food well presented, no one noticed we had been sitting in drinks area and not offered us menu but apart from that all good.
