The Northgate is a place to eat, drink, sleep and relax. The historic house, located just a few moments’ walk from Bury’s iconic ancient Abbey, has undergone extensive renovation resulting in the creation of a restaurant and a Chef’s table, a bar and lounge area, 9 bedrooms and a large south facing terrace.

The Northgate’s Private Dining Room can be used for dinner parties, business meetings or cocktail parties. The restaurant, bar and terrace provides residents and guests with an all-day dining experience - leaving the Chef’s Table in the heart of the kitchen for that unique experience on special occasions.

We look forward to sharing The Northgate experience with you.

An enjoyable experience, good food and excellent service. However the room was very disappointing for the price paid ... Bathroom..toilet roll holder coming off wall, paint coming off wall by bath and bath surround poor. Room ...the ivory upholstery on bed head, chair by drink station and easy chair by window were extremely stained and dirty. Not acceptable when £179 paid for 1 night, and breakfast not included

Gaylej, we pride ourselves on providing exceptional service, so we are disappointed to hear that your visit with us was anything less than satisfactory.

Some of the roast dinners ordered seemed to be re-heated from lunch time, Yorkshire puddings were quite tough

Very disappointed. Expectation was for relaxed meal in convivial surroundings. Peach dessert consisting of maximum half a peach, a small scoop of ice cream plus bits was 5 mouthfuls for £9. Daylight robbery! Service was unprofessional and disorganised. Complaint re dessert was ignored, as waitress did not know how to respond. Main courses were tasty, but expensive. We visited, as sister restaurant Packhorse Inn was excellent.

No Wi-Fi so find another ambient music solution! Felt like I was in granny’s front room! Decor goddy, OTT and busy, and not tranquil and in places scuffed and dirty, particularly the kitchen swing door which was in eye shot whilst eating and here comes the killer! £380 for the pleasure! Now I hear you’re closing, it looks and feels like it! Glad I have the black lion as my local, they do Chestnut well!!!!
