Monkfield Arms in South Cambridgeshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

This is a great place to catch up with friends. Met my friend this evening for a drink after work. Sharing a bottle of wine great value for money. The atmosphere was amazing and the pub looked busy and bustling with families and friends

I’m absolutely disgusted by how the guy with the tattoos was speaking to a young boy who works here, it made me feel uncomfortable and was not on he clearly was a higher member of staff and needs to learn how to speak to people I wouldn’t have this if I was the manager! The young boy was working really hard and was really polite! He looked really upset, this is bulking in the workplace and if I return I will be saying something if this happens again!!

We were travelling through the area and have stayed & eaten at a number of Marsdens pubs. Staying in our microcampervan, by permission. The menu is safe and regular to this franchise. But The Monkfield arms in Cambourne provided me the best quality Scampi & chips that I have ever had. And I've had a lot in my time. Accommodated us with a dog friendly table. Praise where it is due. Cheers.

Went to meet friends and had some snack foods. They were delicious, well presented and came out so quick. The new chef made the food look amazing. The atmosphere of the pub was lovely. We played a few games of darts in the sports area of the pub amd they had the football on which was great. Overall an perfect evening out

We met with friends for a meal. We have eaten here twice before and had no problems. On this occasion I had to send my meal back twice and in the end received a full refund. My food was sent out cold the first time. Second time my steak wasn’t cooked properly. Very disappointed and we won’t be returning.

The roast dinner was absolutely amazing, it was full of flavour, lovely and hot, portion size was perfect. Was a perfect Sunday lunch.

Once again an excellent meal and wonderful staff. I normally have the fish and chip and for the size of the fish you just cannot go wrong. It’s a challenge to eat and is just delicious. The staff are really nice, Gemma ask me any question about Harry Potter, and Kim who is polite and friendly, really go out of their way to be helpful. Good food and service. It’s what a pub is all about.

It was so cold we had to keep our coats on to eat. The service was quick but the food only mediocre my cod being mostly batter. The desserts were tasty. Can’t complain about the prices which were reasonable, however, I’d rather pay a bit more for a better experience.

Arrived for an overnight stay at the Holiday Inn Express and spotted this pub/restaurant. Service was fine and the meal adequate. The pub was a little on the 'needed a clean' bracket e.g needed to clean our table ourselves. Feel attention to detail needs a higher emphasis.

Took my granddaughter to a Halloween craft morning and it was great, well organised. Loved the cookie decorating and all the little games they had. Thanks for putting on a great morning

Once again an excellent meal. Short wait time, approximately 10 minutes, friendly staff when ordering and serving and excellent food for the price. You cannot go wrong. This is my go to place when I want a good value meal. Always a good atmosphere and...

How things have changed over the last 6 months.... staff care about the job now... great service especially kristie

Should have been put off by first impressions with staff at door on fag break sticky tables and grubby interior just to add to the ambiance wallpaper hanging off the wall. But how bad can it be the food arrived on damaged tableware dry and...

Great surprise! Came back after a few months and what a difference! The food was great, the atmosphere felt like an awesome pub again and the staff were so happy and helpful. Will definitely be back!

Sometimes these meals can leave a lot to be desired depending on whose cooking, HOWEVER this last meal we had was very good. I had JKT Potato with Cheese and Beans, It was well cooked and presented nicely with a few chopped chives on top!!...

Pathetic service, no idea how the food was! After waiting 45 minutes, my husband inquired after our order. The woman was exceptionally rude, arguing that we had only waited 20 minutes (I had the timed receipt showing otherwise) and that they were busy (there were...

Lang tid for servering kom. Glemt salat på hamburger, men det var god smak på kjøtt. Ølen var god og...

Good food, reasonable prices on both food and drinks, staff friendly and plenty of space to eat comfortable, would certainly use again

Food has improved a million percent. My meal was delicious, cooked well and was a decent size. New menu and a decent chef.

Came in for lunch on a Sunday, I had a lamb shank and it was amazing beautifully cooked, great food and great service.

Came in the other day and the girl behind the bar is so rude! No smile just a bad attitude as for the chef well let’s put it this was I won’t be retuning again!!!! And the toilets were so discussing and stink!!!!!!

I go to the pub. Every Friday and sometimes when I have a work event or some birthday and every time I go I have really good service especially for Gemma and Paul I will definitely recommend the Monkfield arms to my family and friends

We visited on a Sunday evening (always a difficult time for restaurants) and were disappointed by the lack of choice available. I had a roast, vegetables were cold or raw, gravy congealed but the meat was ok. Several dessert choices were unavailable. Staff friendly but...

When I ordered drinks I was told I couldn't have lemon in my wife's drink because they hadn't done lunch today then after a couple of drinks I was told my wife couldn't have a coffee preferably decaff because the machine wasn't on baring in...

Great English pub with the right pub menus and my favorite pork crackling but you must ask Victoria for pork scratchings…. Great service.

Enjoyed the meal fantastic service from Vicki wonderful and friendly staff shall definitely visit again soon

Great service today from Laura and Kim they always go that extra mile so thank you and also with there new chef Ren the food is now superb definitely worth a visit

I come in mostly after work on a Friday and am always pleased to see Kim and Laura, i came in last Friday for the first time on a while the pub was really clean, and Kim and laura were on top form and made...

Avoid. It's all I can say. We didn't expect the Ritz for 3 courses for £16.95, but after having a watery prawn cocktail with hardly any sauce, served in a pie dish, things then went downhill. Our very late mains, served after 1.30pm, (we arrived...

Came for the festive menu. They didn't even have my booking down. But anyway they managed to sort food for us. Unfortunately we wish we never went. The food was disgusting 😒 🙈prawn cocktail ok Tomatoe soup was warm and about 6 spoonfuls but the...

We visit the pub a few times a month and our favourites are the steak and chips and fish and chips . Unfortunately when we took one of our daughters there a few Sundays ago and ordered fish and chips, we were so disappointed. The...

Hadn't visited for some years but shocked at apparent lack of attention to restaurant. Multiple menu items unavailable, no draught beer, some drinks not available. Served sundaes with dessert spoon, had to use knives to reach the bottom of the serving glass. Toilets stink. Interesting...

The whole place is just dirty . Staff walk past chewing gum ignorant. Dirty tables dirty cutlery. The toilets are disgusting. Huge hole in the wall no mirrors . The front of the building is vile . Come on marstons wake up and sort out...

This is the ‘Village Pub’ of a new village. The village is lucky to have it, if only for the cod and chips, which were outstanding in a hotly contested field of pub grub. Bar staff were very friendly, and someone had put a lot...

We go here about 3-4 °times a year to meet up with family, today was the poorest experience we have had. Food was nothing special, puds were over heated and a bit crispy. No communication from waiting staff, and table was cleared before everyone was...

Popped in for drinks and food whilst visiting some family, sadly it’s the only pub in the town. The service was very slow, and the food was awful! Over cooked, dry & tasteless. It also felt really cold in there, I didn’t even take my...

This looks to be the only pub around in a very strange area. We called in for a drink and something to eat. If you like cheap pubs with sticky tables and conveyor belt food, you’ll get on ok here. It’s poor to say the...

Really Wouldn’t recommend to anyone, very dirty and unhygienic. Toilets look like they are never cleaned.

This pub has gone down hill, the cleanliness is not of any standard, everywhere is sticky especially the menus… will not be bring my family in as it used to be a family pub and is not anymore, won’t be coming in much anymore….. the...

Good bar staff good food and the bar man that served me paul swan there everytime i need a drink ……….

Thank you for a fantastic evening. The family that run this Pub are extremely bunch and we will be back. In the past we were not so keen but the food is fantastic and the locals are very friendly. Cambridge Pubs to could learn from...

12oclock lunch meeting had some sharers and burger ultimate chicken burger . Quick service food was cooked well juicy burger, like the selection of sharers strip nacos brie bites. Came out quick pleasant staff, building could do with lick of paint, but OK for pub...

Re-visited for food and beer since the change of hands. Upon arrival, the building itself looks grim and is surrounded by bits of broken fence, litter, and a blanket of smoked cigarettes. The smoking area appears to be within a 1-meter radius of each entrance....

I’m fuming, I was stood at the bar for 15 minutes waiting to order and some woman decided to cut in front of me and ordered the whole menu. All I wanted was 3 deserts but then when I got to order I got told...

20 % off Roast Dinners on a Sunny, Sunday was an offer I couldn't refuse. My partner and I turned up around 12pm. We hadn't had a roast for a couple of years as well they were pretty basic the last time we had one...

Thankyou for allowing us to stay in your carpark with our motorhome whilst visiting the Cambridge Festival, we had a wonderful weekend, and enjoyed dining with yourselves and the service we received.

not very tidy inside and certainly would not eat in here menu not too great very basic staff was not on the ball at all

Tried the mixed Grill at the pub been here a few times, but the new improved menu was a winner, the place could do with a bit off care, but the staff were pleasant and service quick. Had the food come out quickly and hot...

nice staff , great seperate non-gluten menu , good atmosphere. my coeliac wife enjoyed the G/F sticky toffee pudding which isn't usually available for G/F customers.

We booked a table and had it confirmed on line, when we arrived we were told the kitchen was closed as the staff had only just taken over 2 days ago, however they also said the day before they were serving food and were full....
