Axe And Compass Pub

Wasn't overly busy so quiet pleasant. All had Sunday roast, which you can choose from regular to large size. Food was very tasty and apple crumble was delicious .

Went here for lunch on Tuesday. Beautiful old 200 year old village pub.... Food was lovely... I had the chicken tikka with poppadom and naan bread... Washed down with 4 pints of Guinness. Dog friendly too and just a 5 minutes drive from the A45 Raunds roundabout. Highly recommended.

I can not recommend The Axe and Compass highly enough! I have to be gluten and dairy free, and they were so switched on! The Landlord immediately explained how careful him and the chef are with any allergies or intolerances, and that they use a separate fryer, separate prep area and do a double wipe down for Coeliacs.....as long as they are informed about any allergies. They had a separate extensive GF, vegan, and Vegetarian menu, and, when the food came, the portions were very generous. I had Moroccan style Cauliflower Bites , Penang Curry, and fruit crumble with coconut vegan ice cream. It was all delicious. My table companions all said their food was excellent. I would definitely recommend a visit. It was such a treat. We will definitely be back!!! Keep up the good work Axe and Compass.

Booked last minute for 8 people. Helpful friendly service , lovely food. Would definitely recommend a visit. Look forward to going again

UPDATE 10TH AUG 2022... UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT We went for dinner tonight and had a fantastic meal. I had mushrooms and Stilton on I think it was ciabatta which was lovely. Then had the tempura prawn salad ( it was boiling hot today) it was a mix of peppers, cherry tomato, red onion and cucumber and watercress with their homade coleslaw ... See photo... It was really nice, the prawns were really well cooked and not chewy ( so easy to over cook prawns) and I had a side of crispy, herby potatoes . The others had steak which looked great and tasted flame/bbq/griddle? Who knows but it tasted great apparently. Jenny who was serving was brilliant and kept the drinks coming and did a great job of telling us about how great Sunday lunch is, so we obviously will be booking to try it... A vastly improved service and great and well priced food 💕💕💕 The food was very nice, but a long wait... Apparently you can pre order but I wasn't informed of that when I booked.. They are having phone number problems and it took ages to find the new number... On the new Facebook page, I was about to give up and book elsewhere.. So guys my suggestion, take down the old Facebook page and add the telephone number to the top photo not on the stream where its been lost as more posts are added. Very odd bring asked to write our own order down by the waitress ( I think she may be the lease holder) who is very welcoming and a bit "quirky'... But added to the overall experience which was nice... It could be great with a few tweaks... Set the tables for prebookings it's much more welcoming.. Don't leave plates on previous now departed customer tables... Have some lights on in the dining room which is dark and not welcoming... We shall go back as we live locally and always loved it in there about 6 years ago fell out of favour a while but we shall see
