The Pilots Mess in Wellingborough

The place is ok, the design is quite nice. But the food is awful! Ordered a breakfast - everything was burnt, and some pulled pork chips - very soggy and bad tasting! Also the sausage and mash was ok but the sausages were mushy. The toilets are ok but they are down a very creepy long corridor and they don't flush properly. And there is no light in the sink area. Not good.

Very nice friendly staff and good food too.

Stopped here for breakfast and it’s a fantastic place! The furnishings and fittings are top notch and all aviation themed! The wood panelling was beautiful with a stunning officers mess too!The biggest problem was that the chef had disappeared and nobody knew where he was!The couple already seated said he had a phone call then took off and they’d already been waiting 1/2hr.I tried to find a someone but nobody knew where he would be. A delivery was coming in but he wasn’t there either!We waited a 1/2hr ourselves because it’s such a lovely place with great views but still nobody came :(Have saved the location for later so we might call another time if we’re back in the area.

Really lovely breakfast a few items could of been warmer but we were a rather large party (not expected) so we can excuse that. A great place for the kids (of all ages 😉👍) watching the planes, helecopters, microlites and a REAL bonus a Spitfire doing some circuits and landing and taking off.

Great local unique place for Bfst with a view and great value! Stop by for lunch or a cuppa and cake. A real hidden gem. Now with the sun shining terrace open.

Friendly staff. Plentiful menu choice. Food is good. Great views of the airfield.

awful food, waitress said a 20 minute wait, in the end it was an hour before receiving food when we complained once then serving our food, waitress said we where rude. not coming back dead food.

A fabulous little place, with a balcony so you can enjoy your lunch whilst watching the planes take off.The food is decent, the service is usually pretty good, and the location is great. Not so easy for wheelchair users, as the cafe is upstairs.Next door are rooms for hire, so a good meeting venue too.

Lovely relaxed place to enjoy a pint and lovely food. And if you're into planes, well, you can't knock it for the view either!

Beautiful layout with a balcony to oversee the planes taking off and practicing. Great food and well presented. Friendly staff and food on time. Good toilet facilities and clean and spacious areas. Great family day out if you like planes and aerodynamics, also a Galones ice cream van is their most of the time....which is a plus! 😊
