We’re incredibly excited to be reopening the village pub in Apethorpe, Northamptonshire, after it has stood closed for several years. Located in the heart of the village, the pub has a long-standing connection to the historic Apethorpe Palace - an important Jacobean house with royal ties. Bringing a pub back to the village not only restores an important part of Apethorpe’s heritage but also creates a new space for locals and visitors to gather, relax, and enjoy.

We’re proud to be opening as a traditional pub, serving classic, comforting dishes made with quality ingredients. From hearty lunches to evening meals, we aim to offer a warm and welcoming spot for all. At the weekends, we’ll also open in the mornings as a café, providing the perfect stop for walkers, cyclists, and early risers looking for a great coffee or a freshly baked pastry.

In the evenings, our cosy wine bar will offer a relaxed atmosphere where you can enjoy a carefully selected list of wines, alongside small plates and nibbles. Whether you're popping in for a drink, meeting friends for brunch, or settling in for a Sunday roast, we look forward to welcoming you to Apethorpe’s new local.
