Stayed for two nights in basic but completely adequate room, which came with an amazing full english breakfast as well as cereals and other alternatives. Evening meal was very good also (recommend the steak pie!) with a great choice of food. Staff were always extremely friendly, we would definitely return!!

My son took me for a meal here on Mothers day. Very nice food. The service was amazing. Such lovely staff. They went over and above to please us, including making a floater coffee for me which isn't offered on their menu usually. Here's a picture of our lovely desserts and my coffee.

I never leave reviews but wow! Awful. Unwelcoming. Unfriendly. The owner and who I presume is the bar manager are missing the crucial element of hospitality - to be hospitable! Never felt so uncomfortable in a pub. That said the tall younger gentleman who works there is delightful and has the right attitude. He really should have a promotion - to bar manager! Won’t return. Ever.

Unfriendly manager who did not want us to be there. I visited this establishment twice in a week and it was the most unfriendly pub that I have been to in a long time. You would think that someone running a pub would want there to be customers there rather than seeing them as a hindrance and getting in the way. By contrast we went to a lovely pub in the Peak District at the weekend where the staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. Do not work in the service industry if your customer service skills are non existent.

A group of 12 of us went to The Lord Byron last night for post-work drinks, and I can honestly say it was one of the least welcoming experiences we’ve had in a pub. From the moment we arrived, the landlord and bar staff made it very clear we weren’t wanted. Despite multiple empty reserved tables (which remained empty the entire time we were there), we were forbidden from sitting near them. We were constantly told where we could and couldn’t put chairs, asked repeatedly to move despite not blocking any access, and generally treated like an inconvenience. After being told there was nowhere for us to sit, we were eventually “allowed” to use a back room—but only one table, no moving chairs, and strict instructions on where to sit. The level of control over a simple seating arrangement was frankly ridiculous. To top it off, they refused to let us set up a bar tab even when we offered a credit card, which is basic hospitality in any half-decent establishment. The attitude from staff was outright rude—unfriendly, inhospitable, and totally uninterested in customer service. If you like being treated like a nuisance for simply ordering drinks, this is the place for you. The pub itself? A spit-and-sawdust joint that looks like it hasn’t been updated in decades. Given the state of the place, you’d think they’d be grateful for customers actually choosing to spend money there. Instead, it seems they actively try to drive people away. Wouldn’t recommend. A complete overhaul—of both the pub and its staff—would be a good place to start.

Unpretentious excellence. Dropped in unplanned to wait out some motorway traffic and hopefully get a bite to eat. Very warmly greeted on entry by a charming and personable landlady, in a characterful low-ceilinged, wood-pannelled bar with real flames in the hearth and several excellent real ales on the bar. Table 1 is a delightful little corner for the lone diner, and a splendid, chatty yet efficient young man brought me a really superb fish and chips. Homemade minted mushy peas and tartare sauce set off the perfectly cooked whale in crispy batter atop some wonderful skin-on chips. I would have paid 30% more for this level of quality, cannot praise it enough. Soft 40s-to-60s music played but the fire crackled louder, the clientele ranged from academics to young families with well-behaved kids, the sticky toffee pudding was delicious and came with ice cream AND custard as standard… All in all a real gem, I must find more excuses to swing by this way.

Wir wohnten hier eine Nacht. Es ist recht einfach und minimal ausgestattet; es war sauber; das Bett groß, aber sehr weich; das Bad war ok; Parkplätze sind vorhanden; man kommt durch einen überdachten Gang zu den Zimmern, die alle ebenerdig um einen Innenhof herum gelegen sind. Dieser ist auch teils überdacht, um dort als Außenrestaurant zu dienen. Es hat sehr geregnet als wir da waren, deshalb war es natürlich ruhig! Das Frühstück ist auch ok, alles auf Bestellung, nur 2 oder 3 Cerealien, kein porridge, volles britisches Frühstück oder veganes von denen man aussuchen konnte. Bedienung recht nett. Am besten man reist mit dem Auto an, da die Busverbindungen nur bis ca 20.00Uhr von Cambridge Stadt hierhin verkehren. Man benötigt ca knappe 10 Minuten in die Innenstadt.

We visited earlier this week after finding the Lord Byron online, searching for a dog friendly pub in Trumpington. On arrival there was a sign on the door saying 'guide dogs only'. Confused by this we asked the bar server who confirmed dogs are not welcome inside, but we could sit outside. It was a very cold wet day!!! Needless to say, we went elsewhere!

Room 10 or Room 101?? We received an excellent welcome, told we were lucky and had Room 10, the best in the pub. We were led to a separate detached small building adjacent to the pub which at first seemed to be rather cute. The evening meal was excellent and reasonably priced. We retired to our room. We were kept awake for most of the night as there was a large air-conditioning unit just feet away. The fan started and stopped all night long and was so loud that we seriously considered sleeping in our car. There were only breakfast staff available in the morning, and we had to wait until after the pub opened late afternoon (4.00pm) to ask if we could have a different room, but none were available. Also informed that the unit was not air-con but the cooler for Coke and could not be switched off overnight as Coke had to be kept cool until the pub reopened at 4.00 pm next day. We were offered a free drink at the bar as recompense for the “inconvenience”. After another bad night (this time with the shower room toilet macerator deciding to trigger every so often even when not used) we abandoned our remaining booking and found an alternative pub. We can only comment on THIS room, which we renamed Room 101 ! It was a converted single garage with kitchenette extension and a shower room extension beyond that. Very small, you have to squeeze against the toilet to open the shower door. Just one small individual shower gel to last two people for three days, no-where to hang damp towels, 3 broken light bulbs, a badly hung and unfinished front door and the bedroom window just 10 inches from the street footpath – curtains permanently closed. Other reviews are good, so do stay here, great location, just a very short walk to the PR3 bus to the city centre which runs brilliantly every 10 minutes. Although breakfast was a disappointment, the evening meal was really good. Just avoid Room 101 !" We did submit the above to the manager asking if he wanted to correct any errors, but no reply received after 3 days....

My friends and I were asked to leave the pub, after having ordered drinks and everything, because we had the intention of knitting while we were there. The lady (we believe she was the owner) said "we don't do this here", as if we were doing anything wrong or offensive!! It's us who are offended by this attitude and we won't be coming back.

We didn't have time to order dinner as while having our drinks a lady came to us explaining that this was not the right place for knittig, only for drinks (that we were already having) and food ( that we were about to order). There were plenty of empty tables and we just sat down.

Stayed on a saturday night while going to a concert at the corn exchange. The rooms 9 of them are separate from the main pub/restaurant. Good choice of real ales and a good size free car park. The breakfast was awesome with a nice choice of food including a full english and a big pot of proper fresh coffee. We walked into the centre 30 minute walk, but there are plenty of buses at the main road. Staff friendly and helpful. Very good price for Cambridge. A few parts of the main pub and garden could do with a bit of TLC, next time i come to cambridge i will 100% stay here again. Room was very clean with all the essentials and we slept well

My boyfriend booked us a romantic weekend near to Cambridge and I was excited to explore the rich history of the area. The location and the rooms are amazing. Very clean and comfortable, and the building could have come out of a Tudor period drama. The only thing letting the place down is the Tudor attitude towards the guests - you get the feeling that if you say the wrong thing it'll be off with your head - I guess that adds to the rustic charm, though :) It was a lovely experience, but the inflexibility of the staff and the surly attitude means I won't be going back. This is the twenty-first century and guests expect more these days than just a room and breakfast. I do hope that the management provide some customer service training to their staff, because it is a wonderful destination for a break and it is a shame for it to be let down this way.

It was a cold and rainy day. First impression it was a bit run down place, but usually I don’t mind. I arrived with a heavy backpack 2 hours before check in time expecting to wait in the lobby and just have a read there. Alas, no lobby and no staff. No room to wait inside. Just a dark pub, which wasn’t open yet. Of course I could leave my backpack there, but it would be unattended. But no I myself could not wait inside. The nice cleaning lady showed me the way to the nearest Waitrose where I could sit and have a coffee. I did, called to cancel the reservation and just went online to find another hotel. Totally worth the extra money.

What a historic place. The pub itself is really old with low ceilings and beams. The floor is on 2 levels. There are 3 fireplaces. The walls have wood panels, really is lovely. The bar has an excellent selection of drinks. Which are served by friendly staff. We had dinner here 2 nights, and each night had different staff on who were all friendly and happy to chat to you. The Friday night, we both had cod and chips with crushed minted peas, delicious. Really good-sized portions. My husband had sticky toffee pudding and custard for pudding. On Saturday night, we shared a camembert with red onion chutney and toast. For mains, I had steak pie with chips and vegetables, and my husband had chicken and bacon tagliatelle. Again, everything was delicious. The bedrooms are in a separate building which you walk under a roof so as not to get wet. Our room has 2 twin beds with a good size shower room. The shower wasn't the best, but there was plenty of hot water. There is an air-conditioning unit in the bedroom, which also acts as a heater. Very efficient. We would definitely stay here again. It is a couple of miles to the centre of Cambridge, which we walked, but there is also a bus that you can get the PR3 from the centre of Cambridge and get off just round the corner on Maris Lane. It is very quiet here. There is ample free parking here.

We arrived at 1pm from Qatar which was a very long flight only to be told they did not open until 4pm, the lady did take pity on us and had a room made up. I found the room small and basic but clean, the worse part for me was the towels, small and pretty well threadbare, an investment there would be worthwhile. The garden was very sad, unkempt, weedy with unmowed grass, not at all inviting to sit in. The pub itself is very old obviously and had character but the covers on the window seats were covered with food stains which looked very bad in a restau rant, couldn't sit there. Breakfast was average with basic choices.Wish I could be more complimentary but it is what it is.

De kamers zijn netjes en verzorgd. Het bed is goed maar wel wat kort (1:90 cm), wellicht ook antiek, het sliep overigens wel goed. De badkamer is netjes. Het diner was prima, echt Engels. Goede vegetarische opties. Het ontbijt was verzorgd, wel Engels, dus voor een Europeaan wellicht wat zwaar! De prijs vond ik prima voor het gebodene, daarom zeker een aanrader!

Lovely meal and service in 2022 just after final opening up after last lockdown. Returned in 2023 when food and service definitely not as good. Ordered the same meal (sea bass). It was overdone on both sides and the meal was minus the beautiful baby tomatoes it included in 2022. We complained but were not offered a refund. The chef was told and reportedly said that sea bass was meant to be cooked that way! Only excuse I could think of was possibly that we went on a Sunday (previously was a Wednesday) and we were probably expected to order a roast dinner, so maybe the normal chef was having a day off.

The whole place needs a lot of money spending on it. The photographs do no represent the actual place, don't know how old they are.

Spent a pleasant couple of hours at the Lord Byron but there are pros and cons to the pub. Ordered a black coffee and lime soda. The former was weak and incredibly grainy at the bottom, so not a brilliant americano by any stretch. The overall makeup of the establishment is tired and the gents’ WC leaves much to be desired. However the friendly nature of the staff, log burner and other traditional aspects to this pub which make it welcoming, cosy and somewhere I’d probably return to.

We went here for a Friday drink and a meal, beer was good. I had fish n chips which was ok, my partner opted for the stout steak pie which was lacking in meat and the bottom of the pastry was soggy. Not good. To top it off there was some local @ the bar who thought he was joey essex who constantly swore whilst drinking with the bar staff which was quite unpleasant for the old couple who were also eating a few tables away from us.

Two Sunday lunches and one fish and chips absolutely delicious. Great service by cheerful staff definitely recommended. We sat inside but there is a large garden to sit in if preferred. Easy to get to by bus or car (large car park)

The dinning room is atmospheric and the menu is excellent. All food was well prepared and tasty. We even had a discount because we were staying at a local hotel. A fine place to dine.

Este es un buen lugar para alojarse si estás en Cambridge fuera del centro a sólo 2 libras. 60 en autobús a Cambridge y salen cada 10 minutos te quedas lejos del pub en sí, las habitaciones son muy cómodas y el desayuno estaba bien equipada cama cómoda era muy buena y en el precio de la estancia así que, en un gran lugar para alojarse a un precio estupendo.

A local pub which has a number of B&B rooms in an adjacent annex. Rooms fairly priced (Includes a brilliant breakfast). Comfortable and warm with magnificent sized beds. Only critisism is that the shower lacked water pressure - more of a dribble than a spray.

Good lasagne & choice of beer. Friendly atmosphere and comfortable settees to sit on. We visited on a Monday night when it wasn't busy but can imagine it being pretty full at weekends.

Servicio de Reserva de última hora, pero no un elemento adicional. Excepcional! Ve, te encantará! Las habitaciones son muy cómodas, el personal es de diamantes. Como una persona necesitada me arregle. Lo suficientemente pequeño para que yo supongo. Volveré. Gracias.

One portion was almost enough for two people and it was delicious. It would have been even better if there was a disposable wooden fork with the order.

I have recently been in Cambridge for my friends Hen do, which I organised. We were due to be visiting The Snug Grafton on Sunday 1st August for a cocktail master class which was the last activity before we travelled home on Monday. I booked this event in early June, and have had ongoing communication with the bar and also paid a deposit. On the Sunday morning we were all gearing up and getting excited about our Sunday evening of cocktail making. Little did we know, this wasn't going to happen. At 12.30pm on Sunday 1st August ( THE DAY DUE TO ATTEND THE MASTER CLASS) I received a phone from someone from the bar, saying that our master class is cancelled due to not having the trained staff to be able to carry out this event. The lady on the phone explained the bar had recently been taken over and they don't check what bookings they have until the day.. this is absolutely ridiculous. To top things off, the lady was not sympathetic and didn't understand the frustration caused. I had to break this news to 7 very excited hens, with only 6 hours until we were due to attend our class. The deposit paid I did get back today, however that doesn't resolve the issue. I find it astonishing that a company does not check what bookings they have until the day and don't pre plan events like a master class until the day. I would advise anyone who is thinking of arranging a master class at The Snug Bar, to avoid. I wouldn't want anyone to go through the same situation as myself and my hens did. I was left with the difficult job of trying to arrange another activity due to the unorganised mess the Snug Bar has caused us.

Our server was nice, but so disappointed with the food. While the food is somewhat made to “look” like American BBQ, its flavors were just odd and bland. It is definitely not authentic American BBQ. For example, Alabama white sauce with beef (as opposed to smoked chicken), the corn dog breading wasn’t sweet, the “carolina” pulled pork tasted more like a sloppy Joe. Also, the wings were more akin to fried chicken poppers than actual American chicken wings. The “iced tea” is not even close to southern American sweet tea — a stable at American BBQ joints. The Mac n’cheese was very flavorless. We wanted to like it, but unfortunately they just don’t have good quality American BBQ.
