The Stitching Pony in Kettering

Ah, The Stitching Pony – it's one of those pubs that just warms you up from the moment you step inside. From what I've gathered from the buzz around it, the staff are absolute gems, always up for a chat and making sure everyone feels welcome, whether you're a local or just passing through. The beer selection is spot on and won't set you back too much, which is always a win for a good value evening. Plus, being dog-friendly adds a nice touch if you're out with your four-legged mate. On the flip side, it's a shame there's no website to easily look up what's on offer or confirm opening times, as the schedules do seem a bit muddled, which might leave you scratching your head. And while the recent reviews are glowing, that overall rating hints that it might not be perfect for everyone – perhaps a rainy day or a busy night could dampen things a bit. All in all, it's a solid choice for a pint and a laugh, but I'd say it's worth dropping by with an open mind for a balanced experience.
