    Everything about Ember is exceptional. Food cooked over fire. We always choose a number of dishes and then share. The Menu changes regularly and is interesting, innovative, adventurous (and sometimes needs Google or help from the team to know what is involved!). We've been many times and not once been disappointed.

    Embers is a secret dining experience that Northamptonshire need to know about. A good vibe when entering, casual but special. Will and Hannah are great to engage with as they cook your food in front of your eyes. The experience is exquisite and tastes that explode with every bite. Everyone needs to try Embers, we will be going again.

    Our second visit, this time for the small plate menu. The waiters were really helpful in explaining how this works, (a bit like tapas). Each dish that we chose was delicious, I can’t choose a favourite. Fantastic food, lovely helpful staff & a great atmosphere, can’t wait to visit again.
