a great place for a breakfast and other meals coffees & cakes etc… proper home cooked food, fantastic service from Colin and his team, I lived in Northampton for many years before I discovered this cafe it’s located in the car park of Hunsbury Hill Country Park, it seems very popular with Dog Walkers with plenty of parking a great place to meet your friends

Had a bacon roll in there this morning with my neighbour. First time visit for me to this country park cafe. Quite an extensive menu too. There's seating indoors and out and the interior is pleasant enough. Friendly staff brought our rolls and tea over to our tables and ensured we had everything we needed. Ideal location for the visitors to the park just off the main road. Worth a look for a cuppa or something more substantial. Recommended.

Nice little place. There was a very limited menu which makes sense, I guess short staffed. We ordered and sat down in the sun outside, with the dog. The 2 girls working there were friendly and polite and the sausage sandwiches were ok. Lots of people slowly arrived and it turned out to be a busy little place.

Two Gems....park your car very pleasant walk around Hunsbury Ironstone Park. Nestled in the car park is Drovers, rustic outdoor seating and great food and value. Served by Colin and Christine, they have continued to look after customers throughout covit. They deserve every success.

Pleasent country park location. Premises is very small and a bit dated, rustic perhaps, but clean. Kind of charming really which I like. Not very busy mid morning during my visit. I sat in the conservatory area. View from cafe is a large car park but within a wooded area. Car park already well used by walkers. Staff polite but perhaps a bit wary of me a stranger not from these parts! I had 'Big Breakfast' £5.50. Well cooked with egg not overdone. However not the biggest l've ever had and no mushrooms. Hot drink good value for money for £1. There is a small combined information and childrens play area. So would be good for young children to amuse themselves while parents can have a relaxing break. Overall I would come again especially if mushrooms come back in season :-)
