Met up with friends here last night as a halfway point for all of us and had a really good meal. Food was served hot and presented well, staff were friendly and accommodating, we weren’t rushed at all and the waiting staff were efficient without being overzealous. The pints ordered were nice and ‘clean’, recommendation for the steaks (we had a few different varieties at our tables) but the black and blue sirloin was perfect! The waffle desert was amazing too and the coffees went down well. Large portions (not a criticism) and would definitely recommend for the easy atmosphere to enjoy a meal with friends!

My first visit. Countesthorpe is lucky to have this great village pub and the large number of customers proves others think so too. Great atmosphere, delicious food and best onion rings I've ever tasted!!

We have been here quite a few times now and the food is always excellent and the service is spot on. Curtis does a fantastic job as do the rest of the staff. The Sunday lunches are amazing, especially the gravy.

Thank you for giving my mum and dad a lovely evening for their anniversary! The staff wrote a lovely card wishing them both a happy anniversary going above and beyond expectations. My parents couldn’t stop talking about how nice the food was.

We had a fantastic meal here this week, being given a table for two tucked away in a nook for a really quiet evening together. The service was very friendly, everything was served quickly, and the food was just superb. Delicious chicken and leek pie, chunky chips, and the onion rings on the side are always the best. Even the thick gravy was the best we've had! We love this chain of pubs and the Axe & Square has always been the nicest for a meal for 2-4 people with plenty of space between the tables to give the feeling of a private evening. We'll definitely be back again!

Very busy when we went mid afternoon, but the service of all the staff were fantastic, so friendly, helpful and attentive. The food was excellent, couldn't fault it. It is on the dearer side of a normal pub, but this chain are on the next level. Well worth paying the extra for something a little bit more special. Recommend 100%. The only small negative is that it can be on the noisy side because of the lack of soft furnishings to absorb the sound, but don't let this put you off....

Met up with friends on a recommendation, booked a table in advance. Nice selection of drinks, great menu, at good prices. Food came out quickly and nice and hot. All plates cleared,with a big thumbs-up from our party. A massive thank you to the young lady who took our order...she found and brought to us a purse left in the bar area,most grateful. Highly recommended.

Booked lunch for 6 for the MIL's birthday on a recommendation and it didn't disappoint. Pleasantly greeted and seated quickly. The Menu selection looked good with many tempting options. We ordered various starters and mains, as well as drinks. The drinks arrived quickly as did the starters. The mains were brought to us shortly after we finished our first course. The food was delicious, I do our cooking at home and we don't often go out as I hate paying for food that is sub par to my own and I have to say Axe & Square hit the mark, I would happily eat there over and over again. It was so good we went back the week later for my own birthday lunch, again we were well looked after and the food was first rate. My faves; Tex Mex Chicken Strips Starter and the Gochujang Chicken Loaded Naan. Highly recommended.

We had a lovely meal for our 5 year old granddaughter’s birthday. The staff were very friendly and sang happy birthday to her and she was very surprised. The food was delicious, a couple of items were a little salty but nothing worth complaining about and the portions were more than ample. The car park is a little small and has no disabled parking spaces but we managed to find a space. Overall we had a nice meal. Also there was live music in the garden when we came out.

We had a lovely family meal out at the Axe and Square today. Delicious food, kids meals were great. The service (especially Amy) was first class. I’d definitely recommend and go again!
