If you like your real ale this quirky place is a must if you are in Ely. This was my first visit since 2019 because of the pandemic and it didn't disappoint. I look forward to returning again.

A great selection of beers, cask, keg, and cider. The incredible pale was exactly that. The decor is transport themed, with signs and old enamelled sign adverts. Don't think they did food. Otherwise, it would be 5 stars like everything else. It's definitely worth a visit.

Excellent real ale bar. Order at the bar, beer delivered to your table. Good stock of board games should the beer and your companions not be sufficient entertainment. WiFi available. Prices very reasonable - four half pints were (just) less than £10! Four cask ales, another 6/8 from keg, many more from can and bottle (including Belgian beers). If in Ely again, will definitely return.

A self-professed ‘micro-pub’ a five minute walk away from Ely Cathedral could not be a better find. A delightful blend of trend with trad, much like the selection of beers which make this place a must visit on their own. Perfect casual vibes and exquisite music played, games and decor equally matching in quality. A hidden gem.

We came to the Draymans Son pub in Ely to have a break from our walking, and I've visited here before, so I knew I would be in for a treat. Upon entering, the pub was very clean and quiet, and we ordered a Coke Zero at a very reasonable price. The toilets were clean and fully stocked with soap and paper, with a sanitary bin in both bathrooms. There is a selection of games that are free to play, and they also offer snacks. I would recommend that people check this place out; it's a nice place, and I have enjoyed myself here!

I came in, with my lovely wife, for a late beer recently, around 9pm. Unfortunately, the place smelt like a rugby players changing room. Too many people not showering and not using deodorant. It ruined what would have been a nice beer from a local brewery. A large table of friends (around 10 people) were very loud and the flat walls made it very reverberant. Some sound absorption would make a visit, a much more pleasant experience.

Never ever had a duff pint here. Old school welcome, random seating and a selection of ales/ciders/continentals that's hard to match. If you're into stout the Egyptian Cream is a dream ✨ 😍 😋 👌 ♥

Lovely little micro pub with a wide selection of beers (draft and bottled) and ability to have 1/3 pint of draught beers (which you might want to do with some of the stronger ones if you're a lightweight like me). They also serve a limited selection of light meals and snacks so we love to nip in at lunchtime if we are in Ely.

Visited here on our trip to Ely, had previously been told this was one of two bars best for Craft and Cask Ales etc. Was fairly busy a good and wide selection of Ales and Ciders and we tried quite a few.. we actually visited, left and then revisited later in the evening as the Draymans Son is open quite late till about midnight I think. Staff were fine though the first staff member to serve us seemed quite miserable but other staff were fine and friendly. All in all decent place to have a nice drink.

This place was already the Ship of the fens a couple of years ago, but since the refurb it really does deserve the five stars. Five casks, £4.20-4.50, heaps of proper ciders. Probably seats about 30ish now, and dog friendly.

Friendly, great live music and around a dozen real ales. Usually around half key keg, half cask, and around three from Three Blind Mice whose pub it is. Popped in at opening time; place was empty but we should have booked. Got seats for an hour and a half, before the reservists arrived. Half full when our time ran out and we had to leave. This evening the power failed. So they closed the pub and waited for everyone to leave. Cash or card, regulars or newcomers, they were closed. Perhaps they don't trust their staff. It's small so can be crowded, with a lot of shouting and a phenomenally high noise level at times. Lately the staff have been ruder and less helpful. Tables are left uncleared. I recently waited 15 minutes at a quiet bar whilst the barman chatted. Prices have gone up to £4.20+ per pint for cask beer, higher for key keg. Flies everywhere, smokers in the doorway, smoke blowing inside, and got to ask for your table to be wiped. Victim of success.

Had high hopes for this micro bar owned by the Three Blind Mice brewery. Good real ale selection with cask guests. Three new breweries for me. ( A forth Papworth was ticked off two nights ago in Cambridge.) On busy road leading up to the town but light and airy. Had half of Rockets Ales Poryer at 4.4% and a half of Ivo brewery bitter at 4.2%.Then had a pint of Twisted Wheel Pale at 4.7%. Unfined so looks like soup. Pork pie for £4. All very good. Use pub free wifi.

A whole blackboard of ciders, a whole blackboard of beers, more in bottles & cans and a few spirits. Foodwise it's crisps, porkpies or sausage rolls. You can order in pints, ½ pints or ⅓ pints which means you try all kinds of nice things that you wouldn't want too much of. Like mead. In 3 different flavours. Shuts at 10 obviously.

From the moment we arrived and Antonia opened the door to us... We felt welcomed and knew we were somewhere very special. The grounds and interior are tasteful and immaculate. Antonia's tips on places to eat were welcome. Will be back when the dining room is open all year round, as once there you feel like you don't want to leave ! We were one of only a few rooms occupied, with the separate lounges, you could always find a quiet spot when busier. There are outdoor seating areas for warmer days and all have a fabulous view. Thank you for sharing The Old Hall with us. We would highly recommend for a family gathering, it is definitely perfect for a wedding !
