The Olde England is a wooden floored and panelled high street pub with seating under the windows either side of the entrance and a bar on the rear wall in the right corner. I counted twelve hand pumps that were drawing a mix of ales and ciders alongside a limited standard and premium keg range. In the left hand side of the pub is a bar billiards table and above is a big hole in the ceiling that has exposed the old wooden beams, must have been one hell of a shot. There’s a jukebox that sat silent, so the pub was very quiet. Looking at the goth barmaid and the illustrated customers dressed in metal T-shirts and chains I imagine it gets a bit lively in here at the weekend. There is a pub cat. Maybe the owners are going for the distressed look, but I think this pub could do with a bit of TLC. I struggled to get comfortable so wasn’t a huge fan and don’t plan to return.

First stop on a short tour of Wellingborough pubs was this sister pub to the Olde England in Northampton.

It's a fairly busy town centre pub with plenty of locals. Wooden flooring gives it a traditional feel.

The long bar has many handpulls, but the real ale range was limited to Courage Directors, Wychwood Hobgoblin & Hobgoblin Gold, Potbelly Best & Bombardier. The solitary real cider was Gwynt y Ddraig Farmhouse Scrumpy.

Real Ale Ray left this review about Olde England 2

A traditional style pub with wood panelling and timber floors. The bar area was positioned over to the right of entrance, which was fairly compact and had a display of 15 handpumps, with 10 ales and three ciders. A bar billiards table was set up in the front lounge area on the far left hand wall. This is a Marston's house so their ale choice was fairly average and mainstream. Whatpub describes this pub as having a good choice of microbrewery beers, disappointingly there were none to be found on this visit.
