Which Kettering and East Northants venues made AA Restaurant Guide?

Five eateries in north Northamptonshire have made the list.

The AA has unveiled The Restaurant Guide 2020, containing more than 2,000 restaurants currently awarded rosettes for culinary excellence by the AA’s professional inspectors.

Ten eateries in Northamptonshire are included with five from the borough of Kettering and East Northamptonshire.
