The food, drink and staff were excellent! A great sound track and atmosphere in the restaurant. Would definitely go back and recommend to friends and family.
Amazing food, lovely staff and quirky fantastic decor. This was probably my 5th or 6th visit and it will definitely not be my last. The smoke pit does the best bbq in town hands down.
The food was very good! The portions were very large and could have easily been split. I am looking forward to coming back for another visit!
Good staff, nice atmosphere. Little disappointed with the food. Starter of crab in tempura batter was mostly batter. Very little crab. Told waitress but no mention of discount. Mains were nice but everything so coated with bbq sauce that it covered any natural flavour from the meat
loved it great food v happy would recommend to anyone
Amazing platter of meat. Quantity awesome and BBQ sauces really good. Refill drinks have so many flavours and options to choose from and service great.
We had a great time at the smoke pit. We had some big burgers and if you needed to show someone what meat taste like, the pulled brisket is the embodiment of all that is meat.....really nice staff and refillable any kind of drink you like drinks. Good stuff
Amazing! Great food great drink great company. Meat and beer what more could you want. Fantastic menu choice! Would definitely come back! Did I mention...amazing!
Had to complain about 2 out of 6 of our meals-the ribs were full of fat (and couldn't have been slow cooked for 10 hours as the menu suggested) and the T-bone steak was full of sinew and gristle. This was handled well by staff who gave a discount on our bill but still ruined what was supposed to be a special meal for a 60th birthday celebration.
Good food at acceptable prices, friendly service and nice ambience. Venue is good, décor appropriate for the venue and a wide range of unusual products....
We had a fab time at the Smoke Pit, celebrating hubby Pauls birthday with a big group of the family from 3 years to 65 years. Food and the atmosphere was great. Can't wait to go back and also try the new venue Hops and Chops. Thanks
The Smoke Pit remains one of our favourite, if not *the* favourite, eateries in Northamptonshire. The food is consistently of an excellent standard. Sadly for other restaurants, they have to make a damned good case even to warrant consideration!
Huge servings but really yummy. Ran out of space for dessert. Different selection of soft drinks which was nice for a change. Will be back soon.
So much choice of food, very friendly staff and very nice atmosphere made the evening very enjoyable. Would go back and also recommend to others.
Would recommend to everyone. Great place, food was tasty and nicely presented, very friendly and helpful staff, definitely will come again.
Great food, and lots of it. Friendly and quick service. Would recommend, and will be going again soon!! Try the Cow Pig Chicken as a platter...
Great food, great service. Good value for money, food was speedy and a great choice of options. Would highly recommend for people to go here
Fab food as always and great friendly service. Huge portions, always good, a lot of choice, could have a few more veggie or fish options. Would recommend highly to others
Funky venue, amazing food. Attentive friendly staff. Great craft beers, alcoholic shakes and off hook cocktails. Bring a big appetite and enjoy the surroundings. Very cool place
Great menu for great meat eaters! Happy with the service! He nervous portions so we always take something away for later. Will be back again
Amazing food and atmosphere! Child friendly. Great service. Top quality
The service was good but the food was amazing. Best burger I have ever had, portions were big and tasted beautiful. We had soft drinks from their machine which werent great but did the job. Definitely would return though.
Great food every time. If you like meat and you want to to feel like you’ve never eaten so much in your life this is the place to go.
Not a great welcome and attention to detail is poor , i was quite regular to the place hence decided to take my corporate group but its not as good now .
Food and Service superb, moreso considering the place was full on a Friday night - will definitely be going back for a return visit and also looking to try their new chop house
Great place! Attentive and efficient staff. Good choices on the menu. Great food served promptly. We had a great burger, and others in our party had pulled pork and ribs. Huge sized portions. We’ll be back.
Fabulous food Steak cooked brilliantly Lots to choose from a meat lovers delight Great staff and very welcoming Bit noisy for too much conversation However will be going again
Amazing! Everything is just great, steaks are perfect. Can’t fault anything
The best burger I have had bar none Great service and atmosphere. Decent beer. Looking forward to a night in Chops and Hops!! Proper manly!!
as always, very good food. If you like this style of food then I don't know anywhere else locally that could beat the smoke pit
Amazing food and very friendly staff! Our waitress was amazing and very friendly! 10/10 - I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants great quality food at good prices!
Good food good portions great staff the only complaint I have is that the restaurant was cold and a number of customers were having to keep their coats on
It was amazing :) as it always is. Good service, good food and the boss (woman) actually let me have desert this time (also amazing) we will be back!
Fantastic as always, friendly service and great food and drinks
I booked the smoke pit for a get together and the food was amazing, I've been here at few times now and the food has never let me down! the atmosphere was buzzing, so happy I finally found a restaurant that sells root beer! as a group we thoroughly enjoyed our visit, thanks smoke pit!
Second visit. Favourite restaurant ever. The specials are so good and the atmosphere is excellent. Been with 2 large groups and no complaints! Food takes a while but it’s so fresh.
Great night at the smoke pit, food was fab, service was great and a brilliant atmosphere. Tuna was to die for so thoroughly recommend. Will definitely be back
One of ordered meats was not really properly done. There was enormous waiting time for being served (15min) and for meals to arrive (35min). Anything else was good, but I know it can be better.
fantastic food, great atmosphere and a amazing night. The food is of an amazing standard and tastes really good, no too expensive and the staff are really friendly and help ful.
There wasn't much people in the restaurant and the food came fast. The quality of food was good and the portion is big enough. The atmosphere was good as well for gathering with friends.
Amazing restaurant. Unbelievable food with great service. Place looks brilliant.
We all had really excellent food, drinks and service at the Smoke Pit in Northampton last week, although I thought it was just a tad expensive
Great place. Great food. The quality of the meat is excellent. Quirky look and friendly staff a great place to go. Will go again soon
Wow Amazing burgers, steak tastes incredible, Mac n cheese was really good and so were the shakes. Wasn’t too keen on the desserts but they were still nice.
Quality quality quality I have to lie down now as the food was amazing service brilliant and I’m stuffed oh and the decor is perfect
Thanks for a great evening we will be back soon G & J
Nice Food, apart from the side steak was a bit tough. Good atmosphere ...quite expensive though for what we had. Cheapest steak £24. We had 2 burger and chips meals and a 1 kids meal, 1 dessert and a kids dessert plus a few drinks ....£84
Food was average and when bill came they got that wrong should have been 54 pounds they put 554 out by mistake I know have yo wait 3/4days to get my money back won't be going back again
All of the staff where great, food was ok, had better (at this restaurant) bit overcooked, chicken wings tasted a little old, brisket was overdone,
Fantastic food, quick and friendly service! I would definitely recommend this place for families and friends! . . . . . . . .. ..
