Runways cafe is a little gem. Took my daughter on a trip in a chipmunk at the airfield and stopped to have Sunday lunch at the airfield cafe. Lovely hot food which is a first for us with a carvery. The staff were friendly and helpful. Very clean and had a lovely atmosphere. The food was lovely, and the beef just melted in the mouth. Hats off to the chef. Extra points you can watch the plans from the cafe

Flew in for late breakfast this morning, which was a typical English breakfast. All I can say is that it was faultless and good to see the Café up and running again forward two minutes visits in the coming months.

I lovely Airfield, based in the fen’s with a good outlook and good parking, a very pleasant place to spend an hour or so. To anyone who has not visited it in the last six months. It is now under new ownership. The quality of the food has remained superb. The dining area has been refurbished and is very tasteful. done. There, however is one big question to be addressed that is that the length of time between placing an order whether it be for a cup of coffee or a meal . I’m not sure whether it is down to experience kitchen staff or a shortage of staff. As a pilot who may be with a friend and flying in for breakfast it is there hope that they can be in and out within the hour as they may well have hired an aircraft, the of cost of hiring it by the hour can make the visit to the Fenland café unacceptable. I have overheard from groups of motorcyclists who were in for breakfast, reflecting similar views. Let’s hope that in the coming weeks the service is improved, and that will win back. flying customers that are looking for alternative venues.

I had a nice cooked breakfast and coffee. The people (staff and customers) were friendly, and it was very easy to pay the £5 landing fee with my credit card. A nice experience all round.

A colleague and I flew into Fenland airfield partly as in the past its restaurante had been particularly good. The management/ownership has changed recently but from our experience Runways will continue to make fenland an especially good destination. But it is not only for pilots. It is open to all and from our experience this week will do well, go from strength to strength

The café at Fenland Airfield provides excellent freshly cooked food. Breakast, lunch, coffee or tea and cake to Sunday lunch. The coffee and cakes are particularly delucious but so also is all the food that is served. The breakfasts are truly hearty. And all this while you can watch the activities on the airfield. So if you like good food and planes, this is the place for you. A good refuelling food stop if you are cycling in the area. The staff are very friendly, welcoming and efficient.

Went here to celebrate my friend’s 70th birthday. Catering is done by Katie from OK Catering, and what a fantastic job she does! To me, this was a proper afternoon tea, not junked up with salad bits and crisps. All 4 of us had a lovely time in a very relaxing setting, watching the pilots and planes.

The catering at Fenland Airfield is tip-top. Food is great quality and plenty of it. The staff were friendly, helpful and efficient. All in all, a great experience. The cakes and puddings were an optional extra for us but were soon snapped up as they were absolutely delicious. Definitely worth a detour if you're anywhere close.

In the middle of nowhere you will find an incredible breakfast with really friendly staff and an unusual setting. I've also heard the Sunday lunch is incredible

Sunday dinner was fantastic, very tasty, lots of it. Service is quick and friendly. Good value. Book a table on a Sunday though so you are not disappointed. Cakes are homemade and a must.

Great home cooked food with a varied menu.Love the Pesto chicken and Coconut prawn dishes. If you have room the puddings are a must too. Relaxed , friendly atmosphere and when the weather is good watching the planes is an added interest.

Voló para comer algo, mi primera visita aquí. El restaurante es muy acogedor y tranquilo y la gente era encantadora y amable. Me encanta el pastel de la mesa llena de juguetes y decorado con bunting. Regular muy recomendado que pruebe uno, pero por el momento, me había comido Mi comida estaba demasiado lleno. Nos da una excusa para volver de nuevo.Esta vez tuve un pollo burger, que era encantador de chili cristal piezas de pollo, ensalada y patatas fritas recién vestidos muy buena - con trozos de piel en la adecuada patatas fritas. Estaba delicioso, a un precio muy razonable y un lugar encantador para sentarse afuera en el sol.

Visited Fenland Airfield clubroom today for Sunday Lunch, we hadn't booked, but they found us a table in the corner, was a little cramped, but considering we'd just turned up, can't complain, it did appear to be full to capacity.

I'm not a local, but whenever I'm in the area I make a beeline for Turner's! Fantastic battered plaice fillet with chips and mushy peas, a bread roll and a cuppa tea. The fish was fresh, hot and very tasty with nicely browned chips and sweet mushy peas. A lovely soft roll with butter made for a lovely chip butty. Good portion size, plenty for a normal appetite. A fresh brew to wash it down. Very clean inside and attentive service. The carrot cake was also delicious. Yum yum 😋

Stayed here for 3 nights whilst working in the area.. what a beautiful place. The Mash Tun room was quirky with everything you could possibly need including a tranquil garden to the rear. The bluebell inn has a proper country pub vibe, amazing food and the lovely family that run it really make you feel welcome. Can only wish my stay was longer!

Overcooked dry steaks and burgers. "Well done" steaks were black outside raw inside. Burgers were close to being charcoal. Food not up to normal excellent standards.

Love rumblings for a traditional filling English breakfast but they have other great things on offer as well as really nice takeaway rolls and sandwiches. Very friendly staff and great value for money overall

Yet again a wonderful Sunday lunch. An abundance of veg and melt in the mouth meat of your choice. Zara is always so warm and welcoming, staff polite and very attentive. If you havnt tried this wonderful pub yet be sure to put it on your list of places to try 😊
