About This Pub
Ah, The Lumbertubs – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a reliable old mate, you know? Tucked away in Boothville, it's a quick drive from Northampton and surrounded by green spaces, making it ideal for a laid-back afternoon or evening out. From what I've gathered from folks' chats online, the staff really shine; they're polite, helpful sorts who make you feel right at home, whether it's sorting out a table or recommending a dish. The grub is spot on too – think hearty steaks and ribs that leave you satisfied, all at prices that won't break the bank, with some cracking deals if you time it right. It's brilliant for families or if you're keen on watching the footie or rugby; they've got the big events covered with Sky Sports and all. On the downside, it does get a bit quiet at times, which is lovely for a proper natter but might feel a smidge dull if you're hoping for a lively crowd. All things considered, it's a solid choice for a no-nonsense pint and meal, and I'd say it's worth a visit if you're in the area – just keep an eye on those opening hours to plan ahead.

Lovely little cosy pub, not busy at all. The servers are amazing and very helpful. The slow roasted beef rib was to die for, will definitely come back for more 😊

Visit regularly and have never had a bad experience 🙂
We were served by a young lad called Oliver who was an absolute credit to the pub. He was polite and helpful. He couldn’t do enough to make our visit enjoyable. Give this lad a pay rise he’s a keeper 👍
Very friendly staff. Really good service and choice available.
Cocktails were tried beings as we were informed they were on offer. We didn't know. Really good.
Delicious steak that tasted like beef! Ribs fell off the bone.
All excellent
