Found the Old Forge on Trip Advisor as some where to stop off for breakfast on route. Great service, fantastic food at great value.

Good choice of meals available, plough mans was huge. Elected for the bacon Brie cranberry and lettuce sandwich with kettle chips and coleslaw, very good and... More

I have taken my Mum out twice now to the old forge, we both have enjoyed our lunches out here. Even in it's semi remote location (only a few miles outside Kettering) both times we have visited, it has been busy, a sign of a good place. Staff have always been super friendly and curtious.

Went to this very nice place for a bowl of soup and a piece of cake .all of which was very nice and relaxed great to have a bit of time with my daughter,will go back again.

Will definitely go again. If it was a special trip I would probably book a table as it was busy when we went on a saturday afternoon. Will... More

Visited the Old Forge for a late brunch and lunchtime snack recently - taking the family along as we were keen to share the delightful experience. Interior is small but quaint & welcoming - Staff as always are very cheery & pleasant. We ordered both their soup & sandwich combo's and the full breakfast. The breakfast was large, very tasty...

We found this excellent venue last year and it is one we particularly look forward to returning to. Well prepared and presented food and a cake cabinet that you just want to work your way through. Really good coffee and great service.

Had lunch here last Saturday, food was fresh and tasty and lots of it was 'home made', plenty of veggie options, the chilli was good. The staff were very helpful, heating baby food, providing a high chair etc. A great place for a relaxed meal.
