The Beeswing & The Flavour Trailer, Kettering: Pub Meets Street Food Heaven 🍻🍔🔥
Tucked away in Kettering’s neighbourhoods like the coolest secret everyone wishes they knew, The Beeswing is a proper pub doing proper pub things—good drinks, warm vibes, and now, thanks to The Flavour Trailer, some of the best food you’ll find in a beer garden. Anywhere. Ever.
The Pub: Classic Vibes, Zero Pretension
The Beeswing is the kind of place where you walk in and instantly feel at home. A proper local, with a welcoming buzz, good beer on tap, and a lovely outdoor space that becomes absolute magic when the food trailer is fired up.
There’s no nonsense, no neon cocktails, and no overpriced nonsense—just well-poured pints, friendly chat, and a brilliant community vibe.
The Food: Street Food… but Make It Epic
Enter stage left: The Flavour Trailer, parked out back like a gift from the food gods.
We’re talking loaded burgers that require two hands and a sense of commitment, fries with personality, and specials that change regularly but are always dangerously tempting. From pulled pork to smash burgers, chicken dishes to fully loaded vegan options, it’s a flavour bomb of joy in every bite.
Let’s be clear: this isn’t “pub food”—this is gourmet street food with fire, flair, and flavour turned up to eleven. You’ll come for a pint and end up planning your week around your next Flavour Trailer fix.
The Combo: Food + Pub = Happiness
It’s a match made in Kettering heaven. Grab a drink, order something sizzling, sit out in the garden and prepare to have your tastebuds high-five each other. And yes, there’s napkins—but let’s be honest, you’ll need a few.
The Verdict: A Local Legend in the Making ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The Beeswing is already a great pub, but with The Flavour Trailer on-site, it becomes a foodie’s paradise wrapped in a pint glass.
Five stars—plus an extra one for every time someone at our table said “you HAVE to try this” with their mouth full. Go hungry. Leave happy....
Read moreLovely pub/ restaurant. I can’t have dairy or soya but wasn’t helped very much by one person who just checked and said I couldn’t have the one meal so when I went to ask about any food that I could have he walked away. Luckily a lady asked for me. There was only one option and this had to be adapted as the chips contained soya. Basically the awareness for allergies etc I didn’t feel was there. The food I got was good just was extremely restricted. (I have been dairy/ soya free for many months due to baby allergy and my breastfeeding her so im used to adapting in different places but their efforts seemed a lot less here.) I must say I DID enjoy the food i had. It wasn’t what I would’ve chosen but i am understanding that not every place is able to accommodate all allergies and know it can be very tricky. I was more taken aback by the person who didn’t offer any further assistance asides from to tell me I couldn’t have one meal - the lady was brilliant! I do however, feel is it important to highlight this in a review as it is very difficult to find places able to offer a choice of food for dairy/ soya allergies and I know of many people in my position and this might sway me from visiting again whilst I am breastfeeding. I have been here prior to breastfeeding and felt the food was great and all of the thing I would like to eat (pizzas/ burgers/ desserts etc) just a heads up for those with dairy/...

We arrived at about 1845, got seated right away, there was about 3 other tables eating when we arrived, we placed our order for drinks (20 min later they arrived), the drinks were good. We placed our order for a starter and our meals. At this time another table was seated next to use who placed their order a few min later. We waited about 30 min, still did not have the started, while the table next to us had their mains. I asked the server if our started would come out before the mains, since we have been waiting awhile now, he assured me it would. About 20 min later the table next to us was onto puddings and we still had nothing, so I went back to ask the server "Where is our food?", he said he would go check with the kitchen. As I went to sit back down I noticed he never left the bar to go to the kitchen, we gave it about 10 more min to see if the issue would be resolved and it was not. As we got up to walk to the manager she said the order wasn't received or something to the extent, she offered us a drink but at this time we have already been waiting an hour for our food, and have spent almost an hour and half in this place without eating anything. We decided to leave and seek out another establishment, truly a shame because the menu looked good but the service is the...
