Review of Topshop

29 Apr 08, 17:09

Good buys! 4*

I really like Topshop as a rule and the MK store is especially good as it is quite big.

The shoe, bag and men’s sections are quite large to.

I always normally find something in there to suit an occasion however sometimes the shops layout is not always clear and I will find myself in the TALL section, not good for a short person. You end up bitterly disappointed when you realise you really can’t wear the item that just caught your eye.

Come sale time it can be crowded and sometimes the shop floor suffers and becomes messy, but if you find the bargains hidden away you soon forget that.

The staff in here are always so lovely and very helpful as well.

Review of The Royal Bengal

29 Apr 08, 16:50

Nice! 4*

I am always very impressed with this place the food is really really nice and great value.

The location isn't great as if you get out late you get allot of drunken people along the main road. Also due to it being on the main road parking is not great at all unless you go for an early dinner.

It’s a great night out though and can cater for large crowds without much of a meal delay.

The staff are really nice to and are very attentive!

Review of Joes Diner

29 Apr 08, 16:15

Good menu, Cheap Grub! 4*

Unlike its sister restaurant Buddies this place has allot more choice. The food is less greasy and they have a nice lunch time menu. Potato Skins are a nice option and really fill you up without making you feel to full.

The staff are all very friendly and service is always quick so perfect if you don’t have much time but fancied something hot and more substantial than a sarnie.

Review of Thorntons

29 Apr 08, 15:21

Fantastic 4*

Thornton’s is absolutely great for presses’! Not forgetting that it is soooooo yummy to. Viennese Truffles and Lemon Meringues are the best.

You can personalise your gifts to by having message written on which is a nice touch.

The absolute best bit about Thornton’s though has to be it range of Diabetic Chocolates which is growing. Allot of shops are recognising this market but Thornton’s has always been way ahead of the game here.

Review of Bodycare

29 Apr 08, 15:15

Holiday Must! 4*

This place gets a big Thumbs up from me for Price especially when Holiday time is approaching.

I always make a beeline straight for Bodycare with my massive massive list so that I can get everything for my holiday - From ear cleaners to shower gel, all new and shiny and ready to go in my suitcase.

Its just amazing the difference in price and I only ever buy Aussie 3 min miracle as a treat in there as it is cheaper.

Review of The Canal Museum

29 Apr 08, 15:03

Found memories 4*

I have very fond childhood memories of the Canal Museum. Having been back there recently it has not changed in many many years but you can’t really change history! However last time I visited they were adding a cafe and childs interactive area so can’t wait to see how they turn out.

Its not all Rosie and Jim either (even though you do see them often) Kids get a chance to interact with the Museum and learn about how essential it was to communities and they offer boat trips up the canal which are great and you get to see how the workers used to have to foot it along the tunnels! All very educational and good fun!

The Museum is in such a great area so picturesque and a visit to the museum and the canal in general is very calming on a nice warm day.

I will always have a soft spot for the museum and the old Shire horse model that has been there for donkey's years!

Review of Marks & Spencer

29 Apr 08, 14:54

Fantastic Food! 4*

I absolutely love Marks and Spencer’s for food, working in town it is so easy to get to and there range for lunch and treats is great. It makes a nice healthy change to some of the other options for lunch in town.

It is quite reasonably priced as well.

I am not really a Marks and Spencer’s clothes shopper but it has looked very nice in there since they had a makeover. The underwear is really nice in there to. They do a range of Minimiser bras which is great if you want to hide your assets! Dont worry they also cater if you want to show them off!

Review of Gianbiaz

28 Apr 08, 17:50

Amazing Food! 4*

This place is absolutely fantastic for food!

When I first went there I was a bit scared by the prices which actually are not bad at all when you consider what you get, a real bargain! I order Prawns for starter and ended up with what looked like 3 whales on my plate, not bad at all!

The staff are always really helpful as well and since the refurbishment there is a really nice bar area upstairs that you can wait in until your table is ready.

I love Italian food and this restaurant certainly doesn't disappoint!

Review of The Mailcoach

28 Apr 08, 16:29

Very nice! 4*

This pub is a really nice place to go for a drink and it has a nice outdoor area. Also it’s very near to the theatre which means it’s perfect for if you fancy a quick drink before or after a show.

It always looks really clean and bright in there adding to its appeal.

Last time I went in there I noticed that if you ever get bored they have board games available behind the bar so if you fancy challenging some friends to a game of Jenga you can nice touch!

Review of Greyhound Inn

23 Apr 08, 10:09

Nice especially in the summer 4*

This pub is very near to where I live and it nice to go somewhere a bit different now and again.

It’s especially nice to visit in the summer as there is a huge garden and it is lovely to just sit and chill with a drink when the sun is shining. It has a great atmosphere.

The parking is great here to all off road.

The pub/restaurant is very nice for snacks it has more variety than your average pub whilst still keeping the traditionally pub grub 'the ploughman’s'. They also do a great prawn cocktail.

Review of Baroque

22 Apr 08, 17:50

Nice Atmosphere 4*

This place is really great for a drink after work especially if you get a couch!

It is always packed during weekends which in Northampton is a good sign all the dives are empty!

Really really nice in here though and you don’t have to wait a life time for a drink even on a busy night, BONUS!

Review of Wakefield Farm Shop

22 Apr 08, 17:18

Fantastic and Friendly 4*

This is a really nice little place to wonder round with family. It has a really nice little tea shop which does a mean Jacket Potatoe!

It is quite hidden away though but when you get there and have managed to park without running over any chickens! You can wonder round a variety of niche shops at your leisure. There is a baby shop which does great christening gifts, a farm shop which is always very friendly, a little shop that sells 'angel' related items but has some cracking jewellery at great prices that dont break the bank.

My favourite though has to be White Orchid the wedding dress shop which i didn't even know was there originally but i am glad i found it as it kitted me out for my wedding and the owners were soooooooo lovely and friendly and made me feel so relaxed.

Its a great place with a FANTASTIC atmosphere!
