Last year that culminated in our receiving the 'Great Service Award' and knowing that our efforts in putting customer experience at the forefront of what we do were so appreciated was both a wonderful surprise and the icing on the cake! We have learned that Northamptonshire is such a diverse county with a rich history of recipes and food heritage and through the competition we have embraced the past whilst making new contacts and friends, using the wealth of local produce now available in our menu. In short, the Awards have played a big part in shaping our vision and we are grateful for both the prestige and support that our success has brought.
