"3rd December 2023 We were so disappointed with our meal and general experience at The Spread Eagle. We had booked this meal with friends that are family to us and had travelled from Essex to Corby for an early celebration Christmas meal together. We had booked on-line on 2nd November and specifically asked for wheelchair access. When we arrived this had not been taken into account by staff, the table should have been pre-arranged and set ready for us. The area of the restaurant we were in was cold which and not at all comfortable for us nor indeed for our most senior of our party a VIP lady of 92 years. Drinks were very slow in arriving one of which was forgotten, along with a requested extra wine glass. We were then welcomed with the knowledge that mac cheese was off the menu, along with steak and rice. Staple products on your menu which should be well stocked. We proceeded to order our starters, prawn cocktails but yet again was informed that they had no prawns!... and that these are not ordered in as no one usually asks for them. One would question why they are still on the menu. Music had been requested twice which took a long while to get sorted. We appeared to be “out on a limb” where we were forgotten, but we soon realised that there were not enough staff on to run the Sunday lunch service. We had a 12.30pm booking and actually received our meal at 2.00pm. Starters were a long while in being served and the main course even slower. “Pigs in Blankets” were offered as complimentary as we had an extensive waiting time. We were asked if we had everything that we needed and was ok and then left. When the table was being cleared after mains we were was asked if we were happy with our meals and we informed the waitress that we were not happy. The staff were hassled and stressed it was apparent that all was not well. I asked how many were in the kitchen and was told 1 person. I was astonished, this is definitely not acceptable. I am appalled that the management had not sorted this issue. If staff had not turned up for their shifts there should be a back up list to call upon other staff to come in to assist. Work as a team and sort your problems out, and if no one else was available there was no excuse for not calling us to re-arrange our booking. Both me and my husband complained to the waitress, (I hasten to add, none of this is her fault), and asked to speak with the manager but was told that best we complain on-line. We asked for a reduction on the bill but was told that the “Pigs in Blankets” were the complementary item. The staff need better direction and training in what hospitality means and most definitely more “hands to the pump”. I have worked in the hospitality industry and the way that this restaurant is being run is a disgrace, no stock, no ambience, no welcome, and no idea!! We were shocked that our long-awaited Christmas get together was ruined by this farce, do not blame the kitchen staff they are only coping with what little direction they are being given. Wake up before the real Christmas rush starts do not disappoint any other families."

Very friendly atmosphere very kind front of house staff member Jordan and great food from Tom the chef. As soon as we walked in the door we was served by a very friendly Jordan he showed a great knowledge of the items in the menu as we was struggling to decide what to order.

We came here for our wedding anniversary. We chose here as its local and thought it would be a nice change to our usual restaurant. What a massive disappointment. We waited an hour for our meals. We only got them when we asked what had happened. My meal was good but smaller than expected and my husbands meal was extremely over cooked. I’m wondering whether it was forgotten on the side and reheated when we asked about our missing meals. We definately won’t be returning.

Came on a very quiet part of the day. All the food came out at a decent time in-between courses. It was all fresh and really hot, clearly the high standards carried on even when it was quiet. The gentleman at the bar was really friendly and was nice to hear him talk to the local customers. Hidden gem, so much better than the last time I was here about ten years ago. (Also I love the portion size of the chips on my burger, I doubled the fries and there was so much! 10/10

Called in on the off chance for a drink dinner. Ordered a pint of bier morreti a j2o which came to £8.80 which I thought was a tad expensive.ordered our food which was gammon with 2 eggs chips onion rings peas and hunters chicken and chips for dinner tonight. Ten minutes after placing our order the barman came over to tell me they had ran out of eggs and was there an alternative I wanted as I can't eat pineapple I said no and then he said he will take £2.00 off my next drink which he never did. The gammon I had was not very enjoyable as half of it was very chewy with it being very fatty chips were nice as was the hunters chicken sorry spread but I will never come back the worst meal I have e...

Well where to begin with this disaster I last went to the pub in 2017 when I vowed due to poor service food coming out at all different times when in a group, food being missing and of various quality standards) that I would never return but Xmas Day 2023 my family had booked for a fee of over £100 per adult head. Atmosphere well no atmosphere you'd expect on Xmas Day, no Christmas music , no host to greet or take you to your table just pointed at), made to wait over ten minutes queuing at the bar to know to be seated, no smiles, no cheer, very down beat almost depressing. One particular member of staff who seemed to be quite senior was rude and seemed particularly unhappy to be working. Foo...

"We arrived as a group of 6 early to have a drink before our meal. The bar is small which we new as we have been here lots in the past, however the experience was not helped by 3 kids aged 5-6 in the corner, they where doing what kids do! so I have no complaint of them , its just not what i want when going out for an evening!! The staff are very pleasant, helpful and attentive when its not too busy but as the place filled up we found ourselves having to wait and catch their eye to order more drinks etc. There was about a 40 min wait for the food which generally i don't mind as I often think its going to be freshly cooked! 3 of us had the fish and chips which quite frankly was probably the poorest I have ever had in a dine in experience, the batter was soggy and dripping in oil, the chips where not home made and the liquidized peas tasteless, we all felt it was inedible! 2 had the chicken kiev and enjoyed it very much, 1 had the lamb special, 4 cubes of potato a few veg and a load of lamb bones with very little meat on them doesn't cut it im afraid. The staff where very apologetic and replaced the fish and chips, the other didnt want to make a fuss and just ordered a pudding to fill her up. They did give us our drinks free which was very kind of them and we did leave a tip for the effort of the young waiting staff. Just hope they can improve and it was just a bad night for them."
