Gordon Arms in Peterborough

We stopped off for a meal on the way home from work. It was a very nice setting and the staff were very helpful. The food was very good.

We went on a work Christmas meal and had the pre order special Christmas menu which had some great options including VEGAN options(I've noticed it states on here too that vegan is catered for) but unfortunately, it didn't go to plan for out vegan colleague who is a vegan due to specialist dietary requirements. The colleague who organised the meal checked several times if they could provide a 3 course meal as vegan, in this case a mushroom starter,a vegan burger and a Christmas pudding. The staff assured her that this was no problem and we had a physical copy of all staffs meals which clearly said "vegan" next to her name. The mushroom starter arrived covered in dairy cheese,she asked the server if it was vegan,she had no clue and went to check(it wasn't) . So this meant she got her starter after everyone else had finished. The burger came out. Again,the server wasn't 100% sure it was vegan(it wasn't, it had brie in it) . She made a blunder by saying "we'll remove the brie"(no,that isn't how it works) so my colleague ended up with a plain vegan burger and some chips, the coleslaw was also not vegan but the server had no idea. Finally,dessert......at the time of booking,the colleague who organised it asked for confirmation about the Christmas pudding being vegan to which she had a "yes". Of course the pudding served to my colleague was NOT vegan!!!!! The manager tried to dodge responsibility by blaming the manager "with blonde hair and a,neck tattoo" Caitlin,I believe, is the name he threw under the bus(apologies if I've spelt the name incorrectly)It took ages for him to apologise to my colleague. It is extremely clear that these staff members who worked this shift need proper training in regards to allergies, dietary requirements and what their food/ingredients actually are and cross contamination risk. We are all caterers so he was preaching to the choir as we all know our stuff. Yes,it was gracious to waiver the entire bill and the food most of us had was very nice,good portion sizes and beautifully presented. The restaurant is clean and well maintained and I loved the Christmas decor. It is just such a shame that it was spoiled by lack of knowledge from the staff. Allergen training is now a legal requirement in all food establishments in the UK and I would be concerned that it's not being implemented here. Do better.

Great evening , lovely food a few drinks. Service withh a smile thanks to Caitlin . Can't fault the Gordon arms if you want a good experience give it a vist.

Great venue great food great atmosphere top service all night from our server IMARN we had three courses and all was nice and well presented

Thank you to Cailin who was very attentive and helpful but not intrusive. She is a credit to the Gordon arms and very good at her job. I will certainly be back, the food was great too and very reasonably priced.

Visited on Tuesday as part of a family get together , was looked after by Lance and Caitlin very well , we were a large group and all felt very looked after even though it was super busy . Would definitely recommend.

We went on Tuesday evening as we’d heard about the 2 for 20 deal they had . Such good value for money me and my friend went and had scampi and a steak and 2 glasses of wine all for 20 pounds can’t really grumble at that . It was extremely busy both both staff members did a great job .

The whole experience was awful from start to finish. We had booked but we're told sit anywhere in the bar. We sat down no menues were brought we found them at the bar. When the food came all the veg looked dry, probably left under heat lamps. The roast pork was in fact a grilled pork steak. Staff were inattentive no one spoke to us except when the food came. I wouldn't eat here again.

Thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Molly looked after us very well. All staff are well trained and motivated. The entire place is tidy and clean.

Served by Sofia and Caitlin who were brilliant - attentive and efficient. Food was served quickly and as ordered which as we were a large ish party was great.

Went for tea on Saturday night. The food was very nice and reasonably priced, and we got great service from our waitress Laura!

We have had 3 celebrations here in the last year. On each occasion the food has been very good. This time 10th August, there were 22 of us and the food came out all together and was very hot. Would like to thank Cailin and Molly for the exceptional service. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Made a 70th birthday celebration very special. Will Always recommend Gordon Arms at Orton Longueville as a great place to go.

Had the best time last night coming out for a Sunday roast. Don’t eat out often but found it to be very affordable especially for the quality of the roast. We had turkey served to us by Molly who was very accommodating and efficient. A great experience for the price.

We had a few starters & side dishes to share, everything was hot, fresh & tasty. Mia was our server, she was friendly & happy.

Honestly only planned to stop for a quick drink and toilet break and stayed for dinner. On way back from 1940s weekend in Alford. Lovely atmosphere, excellent food, a little pricey but you get what you pay for and we didn’t mind paying.

Came in Saturday evening and had a ribeye steak which was cooked to perfection with all its furnishings, two lovely waitresses on called Molly and Cailin who you could clearly see were working well together and provided great service! Great evening, great service and great nosh!

Very good table service staff molly our waitress was great . Couple of things worth a mention good time we weren’t waiting long but tomahawk steak arrived raw it was seared n hot but raw so I had my dinner put in a doggy bag as it put me off il cook it at home lol didn’t want to waste it but then restaurant had no take out bags or foil but manager then saved the day with going to the shops n bought some kitchen foil thankfully as I was not going to let it get binned as quite expensive. Mum n dad had a great dinner but again Lola had the steak n ale pie which she thoroughly enjoyed but then had terrible nausea n diarrhoea spent quite some time in the toilet .wether the pie was too rich but I’m kinda siding maybe reheated or not cooked through properly. The restaurant staff were very nice and good but the back kitchen wether it was because it was busy let the team down . Checks need to be made in preparation and cooking times for sure .

Came here for Mother’s Day and really had a great time , food was piping hot , we had a little wait but the place was packed so it was expected , staff couldn’t do enough for us , would definitely recommend and we will back.

A real shame they turned us away at 7.30pm on a Sunday night when on Google it states the premises is open til 10.30pm???? The restaurant was empty!!! It seems most places are not interested in taking people's money now. There were only two of us and it was a special occasion. All we wanted was a quick main meal. Disappointing.

We came in today for Mothers Day. I know this is a busy time for the catering industry but the Gordon Arms did not disappoint. We received a lovely welcome from Cailin and were sat down quickly. Service from Stacey was great throughout, she was attentive and took our orders in a timely manner. The food was absolutely delicous so a big thumbs up from us to the kitchen team. My mum and i both had the trio or meats and my 2 children had a roast dinner aswell. My eldest who is 6, absolutely demolished her roast and said how tasty it was. We all had puddings, which were tasty and we all left absolutely stuffed. Thank you so much for making it an enjoyable experience on mothers day for us.

Decided to come in with my sister & mum today, we were seated quickly & the waitress was very polite, i was temped by a roast, but went for the 12oz steak, it tasted amazing, very well seasoned, my sister & mum had a roast beef & turkey, both really enjoyed it!

Went to The Gordon Arms for Mothers Day - went for the roast dinner - trio of meats . Food was delicious and piping hot especially considering the restaurant was busy . All the front of house staff worked incredibly hard and were friendly and couldn’t do enough for us . Well done everyone

Excellent as always even if we are popping in for drinks or having a meal always get a lovely welcome of the staff and I must say that cailin has the best customer service I have come across in a long time and all the staff are brilliant food is amazing and very dog friendly our dog loves it

was in today for lunch while visiting peterborough. looked on here last time for recommendations and the gordon’s arms did not let us down this time or the last! was served by cailin this time and she was delightful and so friendly! well done and the steak sandwich was gorgeous also!

Great lunchtime with the family today. turkey was immaculate and our waitress Cailin catered for our needs with a smile. Look forward to coming back

Sunday dinner, absolutely delicious! Service was amazing from the staff but a massive thank you to cailin for going above and beyond in making it a lovely meal for me and my friends! Will be definitely be coming back for another roast! And thank you again cailin!

We came in today for lunch with a friend and was served by Cailin who once again excelled. The restaurant had a lovely welcoming atmosphere about it. Cailin and a great roast was the cherry on top to another great experience at the Gordon’s arms!

Had another lovely meal at the Gordon Arms last week with a group of friends. As usual everybody’s food was cooked to perfection and served nice and hot. Our waitress was Cailin and as usual she looked after us very well. Nothing is ever too much trouble for her and she’s always smiling so that made our evening even better. I’m sure it won’t be long before we’re back.

Today we visited the Gordon Arms for lunch. Cailin showed us to a table that was perfect. The food came quickly, was hot and delicious. Cailin was very attentive which made our visit much more enjoyable. It made a plesant change to be served by someone who obviously enjoys and is passionate about her work. Will definitely visit again

Had a last minute meal out with friends. Was greeted and served by Cailin. She was very professional and very cheerful. She went above and beyond serving us, nothing was too much trouble. Looking forward to our next visit.

Was recommended this place by friends who live in the area , we decided to stay over at the orton hall , lovely rooms but food lacked so we thought we’d give the Gordon arms a go and safe to say we wasn’t disappointed, food was great , service was great and the drinks were delicious especially the strawberry lemonade not had one before but need to find somewhere closer to home that does one . Would definitely recommend .

Lovely place. Wasn't disappointed the food was lovely. We were served by a lovely lady called Ziggy so pleasant and helpful. She even got us some Christmas crackers for our table and took pics for us. Would definitely recommend and we will be back again.

Disappointing visit...no white wine, no prosecco even though it was Fizz Friday....never the less we stayed to order food.....Meals were cold...waiting staff couldn't understand why we complained. Asked us what we wanted them to do about the cold food with no offer of taking it back or a replacement. Once we asked for a replacement it took a further 20 mins to replace one portion of chips. Then the waiting staff disappeared until we were about to leave. A poor visit on the whole.

Three couples 6 different meals all perfectly cooked including the steaks. Atmosphere lovely, waiting staff efficient and friendly as is the Manager and bar staff. Nothing too much trouble welcoming and a really nice relaxed and friendly place to be. Would highly recommend.

Had lunch at the Gordon Arms on Sunday 22nd October at 1.00pm, with 3 friends. We could not have been made any more welcome by Bev, who provided us with friendly, helpful and efficient service. The food was excellent, we were not rushed to vacate the table and it was a thoroughly relaxed and enjoyable experience. All 4 of us will be returning in December, and are very much looking forward to it.

Absolutely abismal, 1st three things we asked for they did not have, at 5.30pm. We left never to return

We went here tonight for our evening meal it was to celebrate my birthday. Looking forward to having two Ribeye steaks. My husband's steak had to be sent back because it was too raw. It was returned the steak was very chewy and the rest of the meal chips etc were cold.My husband says that this was the worst steak he has ever had, and mine was pretty awful too.Very disappointing would not recommend,but staff were pleasant and helpful .

sunday roast disappointing best bit was the yorkshire pud veg fresh but the meat and potatoes of dubious origin. Nobody wanted to risk pudding! shame really as a nice pub with good atmosphere and speedy service.

Most of the menu contained either fried or heavy sauce based items. Not much available if one wanted straightforward unadulterated items. Husband had dietary issues after eating the steak sandwich which was overcooked and lacking in taste. I chose salmon which was also overcooked. Salad was fresh and wholesome. Disappointing meal

Well, what can I say..never been to The Gordon Arms before, but I’ll definitely be back! Danny & co were welcoming, attentive and helpful. So….to the food, I’m not a vegetarian but the Mushroom, Stilton and Spinach Wellington was spot on! Accompanied with roast baby potatoes with rosemary sea salt, Yorkshire pudding, thyme and maple flavour roast carrots, buttered greens and vegetarian gravy - all cooked beautifully. Dessert. For me, in most places they have shot up in price, £8/9 for a pud is ridiculous….so if you’re a pudding fan, I can suggest trying them here. I had the Sticky Toffee & Bourbon Pudding served warm with custard - it was de-lish, the subtleness of booze running though it gave it a real kick! 👍🏼 and at £5.99! Fantastic. The other pud tried was the Triple-Chocolate Brownie served warm with clotted cream ice cream, chocolate sauce and a chocolate pencil, equally as tasty! Good atmosphere, great food…and the beer isn’t bad either…

Food was great. Laura and Shane served us and they were lovely. Another guy tried giving our deserts to another table so we ended up waiting 20 mins for them to come out again. The ice cream had melted by this point which was disappointing but other than that it was a good experience. We had fillet steak bbq mixed grill thing and sausages for a 1 year.

We have visited the Gordon Arms twice this weekend and on both occasions have found both the manager and other members of staff extremely welcoming and polite. As we were a large group of people who just turned up we were impressed with the service, we didn’t have to wait any length of time to be served. We will definitely be returning and keep up the good work.

Excellent service. Food is lovely and always served with a smile. The two lads on the bar (Saturday evening) were friendly and made sure I felt like a valued customer even tho they were rushed off their feet. A great team and the manager is also very friendly and down to earth nothing is too much trouble. Popped in again Sunday evening and the young lady was very friendly and helpful and makes a lovely coffee :-)

This is a very welcoming place, Danny the barman was very helpful. IPA BEER was good as was Guinness and the pie was lovely.

I've been a few timesso I took some family there on Saturday they really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food and service we were looked after by Bev who was very good she looked after us I am coming again next week food was great thankyou

Nice and clean. Polite service staff. My only complaint was the food. The Mix Grill meat was so dry at must have been left under the heater for ages. The portion size for the price was disappointing. I have had a fantastic juicy Mix Grill,...
