Our Food

Tap & Kitchen is a waterside restaurant and bar at Oundle Wharf, Northamptonshire. Unpretentious, honest dishes comprise simply cooked ingredients sourced locally wherever possible and presented with neither pomp nor fuss. Our bar showcases beers from our sister company Nene Valley Brewery. In addition to the expected wide range of beer, we have an extensive wine list, many of which are available by the glass. Our cocktail selection will not leave you disappointed. We were previously awarded Best Restaurant, at the Northamptonshire Food & Drink awards, a recognition that we are very proud of and dedicate to our hard working team. We have also been runner up twice. For larger groups and those with time to work with Head Chef Chris to select food in advance, we have a feasting menu that allows customers to select the dishes that they would most like to share with their friends. Not only are we open for lunch and dinner but we also serve coffee in the bar which is open all day. We cook with the best produce which varies seasonally and with the market, we change our lunch and dinner menus daily and post these online before each service.


Since we opened in 2014, we have deepened our supply chain to focus on food heroes who are really committed to bringing the best ingredients that we can source.  Daily delivered fish from Stickleback, Wing of St Mawes and AO Seafoods, the best Hereford Beef from Johnsons, and everything in between. In addition, our own farm in Wigsthorpe delivers well hung hogget in season and Tamworth/Oxford Sandy Black cross pork as well as providing a steady supply of seasonal game, vegetables and fruit. A Swaps’ Board enables us to take the freshest, seasonal produce from private individuals and small local suppliers in exchange for credit in the restaurant or behind the bar. We butcher and cure our own meat, stuff our own sausages, bake our own bread, make fresh pasta, sauces, jams, chutneys, cakes and pickles. We will always try to accommodate requests and amendments where possible, taking in to account personal taste as well as dietary needs. We have particular personal experience of gluten allergies, the majority of our NVB beer being gluten free and many of our coeliac guests come time and time again for a great choice of food & drink.
