Meet up for Northampton?

[tommygull]

Hi all.
I am heading up to Northampton this week on my todd and would enjoy a pint with folks on here if you're about?

From memory 2 seasons ago there are not a great deal of decent pubs about the ground just a couple of american-themed bar restaurants.

Anyone got plans to head anywhere specific let me know.

Cheers.

Paul and myself will be heading for Frankie and Benny's for lunch and a few beers, you're welcome to join us along with anyone else.

[tommygull]

Cheers, I might just do that. Hopefully see you there!

Being from Milton Keynes (just up the road from Northampton) I can tell you there's no bars/pubs near the ground. Like said above, theres a Frankies and a cinema, thats practically it!!!

[chippygull]

Frankies for me too!! See you in there!!

And a massive Sainsbury's, and half a dozen restaurants and a McDonalds and a Pizza Hut, but yeah, there's really no where to eat up there at all...

I can't remember the amount of times i've been to Sixfields and passed the ground, shows how much notice I take lol!!

Going to this one, is it a frankies n bennies or a TGI or are there both. Could swear it was a TGI we were in last season for a drink waiting and waiting and waiting for our team bus to turn up, ended up as 4 pints instead of 2.

[ferrarilover]

There's both, but I have a feeling that if you go to TGI, you'll be there on your Todd.

There will be 3 or 4 of us, might try F&B's then.

We did TGIs a couple of years a go and it was expensive, and crap, so last year we tried F&B and it was much nicer and better value. Also you can park there for free, you need to get a pass when you go in.

So true. In TGI's I had the "large" rack of ribs but was expecting a large pigs ribs, not a piglets. Had to have a burger as well. Frankie and Benny's was great, apart from trying to put bloody ice in my Magners. The food and service was so much better, the Manageress was very fit as well

Last year was the bus breaking down wasn't it? We arrived with about 5 minutes to official kick off time and I remember thinking that with that many people outside, it had to be the biggest crowd I'd seen for years.....of course, it was because everybody was outside..duh! F & B's definitely the pick here.
