Moorhen in Peterborough

Wonderful party at the Moorhen. Great venue and service

The moorhen is an incredible place to go. All staff are really helpful and friendly. Especially Jess, Joey, Alaina and Sidney. Food is decent and great value for money has a friendly atmosphere and does a fantastic quiz on a Sunday.

Jess & joey we’re amazing, fun and friendly couldn’t help enough

Great food as always lovely service off joey, sport great viewing , nice selection of drinks yes some better toilets would be great and carpet , but that’s not the pubs fault that’s Marston’s.

Brilliant impromptu lunch visit. Excellent food, drinks and service.

Excellent service and the cowboy burger was amazing.

Visited to use the dart boards on a rowdy Friday night. Boards were in decent condition. Not a bad night, but feel the Moorhen has gone downhill a bit over the years. Decent pub with all the drinks you could ask for. They show Live sports and have a good menu of food... But toilets aren't that nice and can draw a certain type of person that might cause trouble.

Avoid until they learn how to cook what is on their own menu. Burgers and Sunday Roasts are clearly beyond their current capabilities. Quiet for food on a Sunday linchtime, where all other local options fully booked should have been a warning sign...on which we had plenty of time to ponder in the 1 hour gap between starters and the main course. OK for drinks in the summer on the terrace by boating ponds... one level below Whetherspoons...

Late booking for Valentine’s Day…arrived and was served quickly….shown to table in a very timely manner…..ordered at bar….food arrived quickly and was piping hot…..server Matt checked back on each course and double checked on allergies…all in all all staff super friendly great ex

Matthew made us feel very welcome and the service was first class as was the food very good value for money

Food was great I was served by James and he was very helpful he was polite and friendly my food was piping hot from Joe in the kitchen tonight I had the lasagne and it was amazing definitely worth the money !

This place is amazing, the atmosphere is lovely and everyone there is friendly. The staff are so polite and delightful. I ordered the cowboy burger and it does not disappoint ! The drinks service through the app was very quick.

Great place to go on the weekend with good bands and great atmosphere the food was great we had the new pizza and it was delicious we was served by Matthew the manager and he was very talkative and checked on us he even managed to get me on the shots and stay rest of the evening

kitchen was opening only at 4pm even of advertised much wadliwe. ordered drinks waited 20min only to be told guiness is not available been offered different beer choose bira moretti only to be told will need to wait for the barrel to be changed. food was quick once the kitchen opened great service (very nice and friendly staff). in general good vibe too! if not the wait for the drinks and late kitchen opening would be 5 stars for all

Everything was absolutely disgusting

It's a good spot for a quick drink or for watching sports. The food is average at best. The toilets are shocking - dirty, smelly, unkept...disgusting. Clearly hygiene and cleanliness are not the top priority at this place. For this reason I'll never come back to this pub.

I appreciate the establishment's convenient location and positive service experience. I consumed beverages on this visit, but did not partake of the food menu.

Went on Thursday for pool, atmosphere was lovely and even though it was busy the staff were polite and friendly

What a disgusting and vile establishment! We booked a table for 3pm (online) for today 5th January 2025 to celebrate a birthday. Arrived to find on arrival at 2.50pm a note in the window telling people they were closed and were open at 4pm. WE TOOK OUR BUSINESS AND ATE ELSEWHERE! After eating ELSEWHERE, we drove past only to find customers QUEUING at the doors at 5PM. What management runs this place? NEVER AGAIN, AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

Great location on the lakes fantastic in summer! The pub is always very busy especially on core nights with a large young following. Depending on the night can get rowdy and rough causing a bit of reputation. Food is good pub grub, burgers grill and pizza are fresh, the rest of the menu is reasonable and priced well. Good music nights, and great for sports 👌

We went out for New Years EVE it was a good night staff were helpful and friendly also it is a good atmosphere drinks were reasonably priced, overall a great evening with friends and family.

A huge festive shoutout to the amazing unsung heroes at the Moorhen pub in Hampton, Peterborough! Who worked the Christmas day shift 🎄✨ You made the Robinson/Montgomery Christmas Day lunch truly unforgettable. 🥂🌟 With flawless service, incredible attention to detail, and a mouthwatering menu, it was a feast to remember. 🍴🎅 Lots of empty plates, a couple of wine bottles, and plenty of smiles all around. Cheers to you! 🍷🎉 First year without both my mother and father alive so I wanted too create new memories and do something entirely different. All boxes ticked Thankyou on behalf of all the family. Paul & Clare Robinson.

I've been visiting family for the last couple of weeks and during that time i have frequented this establishment on several occasions. The staff are friendly and polite. I'd like to give a special mention though to the lovely Marilyn (Mal) She always greets me with a beautiful smile and engages with me in conversation. I love chatting to her. She is fun and vibrant and would light up any room she enters. She is a wonderful member of staff who is attentive, helpful and always immaculately presented. She is an awesome asset to the Moorhen and the Marston group. Thank you Mal. I highly recommend this pub Xxx Read less

Clean, great layout and friendly staff

Arrived with a group of friends went straight to the bar to order some drinks then sat down . The pub has a nice vibe very Christmassy the fires were on nice music . The staff were amazing very friendly . The food came out and was very good . We had such a laugh decided to stay longer than planed best part we drank to much . Definitely coming back thank you Moorhen team for a wonderful night

Wery nice place to spend time...

This is a great place for a meal and a few drinks. Staff are friendly and service is quick. Food is top quality. All food and drink is reasonably priced and served in correct glass wear.

Had a great meal (cowboy burger)I was told cooked by Joe came out of kitchen in a timely manner cooked well and hot will definitely be coming back to this hidden gem tucked away in Hampton Peterborough

The staff were all very polite, and were very speedy with their service. Food was delicious, and the atmosphere of the pub made me feel at home.

The food, atmosphere and service was brilliant when i visited The Moorhen. Will definitely be planning a return visit soon!

Had a great meal today at moorhen pub steak cooked perfect medium rare

Great place friendly staff good service and value for money..regular entertainment and a nice darts area hou can have as a function area too

Visiting friends in area great place to have a drink and light bite to eat. This is the place to watch sport in the area!

First impressions were ok, was told it has a reputation for kicking off and it did when I was there. Large group of lads kicked off with a few other lads. Pint glasses being chucked and smashing, security had no control. Police called in the end. Smashed glass left all over the tables with no one cleaning it up after.

We have just had a pre Christmas lunch with our son. daughter in law and grandchildren. We were served by Alison. Both the food and the service were brilliant. We had a lovely lunch including drinks and a sweet for 6 people all for just under £130. Can highly recommend this lovely pub.

Always friendly happy staff good value for money for a family meal out .a good local community pub new decore inside informative signage dog friendly and daily deals

Very quiet for a Friday night, but that was good thing as wanted a quiet catch up with friend

Excellent service, great food and exemption atmosphere 5 stars

Come in a Monday night and yes limited menu but the food we did came out a gotta be the best I’ve had here very well presented, fresh and hot

Very good pub, food was ok. Received good service from one of the gentlemen, however I found the lady staff to be snobbish and pretended not to see us hence waited for over 30 minutes before being served at the counter .

Lovely meal at the Moorhen today. Decent pub grub, decent atmosphere, had a lovely evening with hubby.

Was a lovely welcome.good service and good was amazing

Staff are always friendly and it’s always good pub food at a great prices

Ok if you like a metal screw with your rice!! And 11 days later still get no response from senior management.

Thanks Matthew and team for the great food and service.

Okay if you want to be deafened by sport on loud speakers loud enough for half of Hampton to hear! Dessert took ages to come out and was small. It's an okay pub but nothing special.

First time visitors and will return Server Craig could not have been better so polite and helpful the food cooked by Joe as good

Spur of the moment decision to eat out and once found we're not disapointed

Good old pub grub. Worth the money, nice quiet atmosphere great view of the lake out of the window. Why are there not more people here???

Staff was kind but a bit slow 🐌 food great plenty for a dish, fries very tasty.

What more can I say! Absolutely stupendous. The chef on shift truly worked his magic and whatever he’s being paid , double it!! He bought me out my food with a smile too! I will definitely be returning and Zack’s superb service is one of the main reasons.

This is a really lovely place, the food was reasonably priced and tasty. I was looking forward to going back. Unfortunately, at the girls next lunch they told me that they did not want to go again. I was shocked until the told me how badly the area around the toilets had just stank of urine. So until this is resolved they will not go - I have no sense of smell so I did not realise at the time. I hope it is resolved quickly. Best regards Ann

Me and my Husband recently visited the Moor Hen pub. I just wanted to shout out the amazing service we received from Evan. He was incredibly helpful, friendly and nothing was too much trouble! We will be returning for sure. Thanks once again Evan!

Came in for a quick beer then the football kept me in, after seeing some delicious looking food come out all 5 of us have ordered main meals. Everyone needs to come and see the new dart area as well!

Amazing pub, great service. Had a brilliant time. Love the view. They ha a pool table and a brand new dart area. Will be back soon.

Never been in before but I tell you now it's my new local! New dart area that looks amazing and my food was on point.

The place has come along way in the last 4 months matt and Spencer have done a amazing job the pub feels so much cleaner and fresh new darts area looks great I cannot wait for more to come the staff have improved and the beer is great. The service on food is improving onwards and upwards I say

Fantastic pub. Friendly staff with a warm welcome. Great for family’s and dog friendly. Sports tvs and pool table and darts . Comprehensive menu of good food.

Lovely pub, Jon is so professional being polite and really friendly. Can’t fault anything

Food was lovely. Could do with more mash and mushy peas 😂 Special mention to Matt, assistant manager he's very good and since he's been there more entertainment.

Had a fantastic experience at the pub thanks to Jess! She was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of. Her positive attitude and excellent service truly made our visit memorable. Highly recommend this place because of staff like Jess!

Lovely place for meal and a drink. Great atmosphere.

Come in on a sunny Sunday afternoon and got the chicken wings sharer matt behind the bar was great and suggested the wings sharer definitely worth it I'm guessing it was Joe in kitchen as that's what my card said . I got to say I come here regularly and the place has got so much better since the new manager started matt is excellent and always helpfull will definitely keep coming back

Alison is great, sorts us out and has a nice chat for every F1 race👍

Always a great time here. Alison and the staff are friendly and the food if good value and tastes good. Alison also sorted out a table for me and my friends to watch the F1 on a Sundays which is amazing. Feel very lucky to have it round the corner

Lively pub/restaurant. Great service from staff, who were very friendly and helpful. Really good value food. Will definitely come again 👍

Good pub, great and friendly staff, better than mulberry tree as you don't have to que in a single file for a drink 👍🏾 John does a great quiz

Great atmosphere, especially love the pub quiz on Sunday hosted by John (The Colonel)

Great service by John, very efficient and friendly. Always cleans the tables of dirty dishes and glasses with a smile on his face.

Great Sunday quiz night John really is great, always manages to serve and run quiz, swiftly, very approachable and efficient. Food always hot, although pub seems to run out if draught beers n ciders by Sunday.

Really enjoyed the quiz. Need more people on our team to help! But great fun, great atmosphere and John was brilliant quiz host.

Amazing atmosphere, the food was incredible. All the staff were lovely and helpful also made sure if I had any allergies when it came to ordering the food

I had a great time out with friends for drinks! The atmosphere was lively and enjoyable. The food was delicious and arrived promptly, plus the service was outstanding and the prices were very reasonable. I would definitely recommend it!

Great atmosphere and selection of drinks. I Was served by James and he was friendly and attentive, sorting out all of our needs quickly. I will 100% be returning

Just went for an impromptu dinner with my mum, we used a 30% voucher and had a great meal. But wish to add we went at 5pm and there was only 1 member of staff on she wad rushed off her feet serving the bar, taking food orders serving meals to guests and clearing tables, she worked like a trouper for over an hour she remained focussed and worked fast and professionally. We told her that we had watched her work really hard she said " she does her best" A big shout for Sydney you need to give her a bog pat on the back Well done Sydney.

Very poor, serious lack of management

This is a really nice restaurant, located right next to a lovely lake. Ther service was brilliant with really friendly staff and the value for money was incredible. We both got chicken burgers for just over £10 and the size and quality of the meal was superb. We will be going again and advise people to give it a try

A nice local, with a carpark, and a lovely beer garden overlooking the lake.

Always a great experience, always lovely food, always great staff.

Short of time. First ever visit. Lunchtime. Greeted and served by very pleasant lady. Ordered drinks and food,arrived fairly quickly and enjoyable. Had to leave for another appointment but plan to return perhaps on the Curry or Steak nights. Although not used they do accept the Blue Light Card.

Lovely food, good drinks, atmosphere very good. The lady at the bar dark hair always has a laugh and a smile.

Great little local with a beautiful beer garden looking over lake what a sun trap it was aswell they had music on outside speakers that a new I think and the staff was friendly especially the manager Matt he was more than happy to help with any quistions we had

Great service today the food was great nice and hot Matthew the manager brought my food out and was very helpful when I wanted a extra drink pointed me in the direction of the food app

We have been working away and staying local to the moorhen, on our first night we was greeted by Jess, she was extremely friendly and served us for most of the night.

The ambience and layout is very pleasing. Alison's friendly manner made us feel welcomed and at ease. Her service was splendid. We very much enjoyed our experience at the Moorhen.

Nice friendly place, service from Alison friendly and courteous. Food hot and tasty. (would have liked bit more tatare source) Will go again

Friendly staff, good drinks and good food.
