Welcome to our friendly eatery
COFFEE. FOOD. FRIENDS.
You can find us in the middle of England, at Heart of the Shires Shopping Village.
Our Story
The 1867 is a renowned eatery located in the courtyard of Heart of The Shires Shopping Village on the A5, just north of Weedon, in the beautiful county of Northamptonshire.
We are surrounded by beautiful countryside in the centre of England with lots of lovely shops here too! We are very proud of our ‘hidden gem’ and always look forward to welcoming new faces and telling our own little story about ‘the 1867’.
Whilst we serve many regular local guests, we have many who conveniently meet here from all over the country and indeed abroad.
Well behaved dogs are very welcome with water and treats on arrival.
Parking is FREE and there is lots of it. Accessible parking is at the top of the carpark next to the entrance – if you need assistance…
You can now listen & learn!
Just like an audiobook, when you see the ‘Listen with Christina’ icon, you can click to play a voicebite.

WHAT’S ON AT THE 1867?



Our Artwork
From Our Walls To Yours 🖼
The artwork on our walls isn’t just here to be admired—it’s here to find a home. Each piece comes from our FRIENDS at The Artizen Gallery, just across the courtyard at Heart of the Shires.
If something catches your eye, you don’t have to leave it behind. The Artizen Gallery offers the very same pieces you see here, ready to become part of your own space. Whether you’re drawn to a bold statement piece or something subtle that quietly transforms a room, your next favourite artwork might just be hanging here, waiting for you.
Take a closer look next time you visit, and if you’d like to know more, The Artizen team will be happy to help.
