Ordered a cocktail and a meal, the meal arrived first so I tried to cancel the cocktail. I was told that I couldn't cancel it as it had already been made (and therefore had presumably been sat on a bar somewhere for 20 minutes...). Was charged full amount for the meal, drink - and service. Poor.

Beautiful space, with a good atmosphere. I attended in a small group of important work colleagues and clients for an evening meal. The food, while looking good was very average. Sparce ingredients, lukewarm and ultimately nothing was particulary stand-out (the terrine was actually a little unpleasant) There were hardly any staff around, so it was frustrating to wave one down to order more drinks, etc. Finally, my dessert took over half an hour to arrive after everyone elses, and it took flagging a waiter 3 times to finally get one. In fact some of my colleagues had left before it finally appeared. For the price and the look of the place, I had expected superior service, but it ended up being like any other mediocre evening restaurant in the city, which was sad.

Underwhelming festive afternoon tea. Excellent scones, but so noisy you can't hear who you're with. Cakes look great but are much too sweet, vegetarian sandwiches were stale. Staff were polite but service was incredibly slow - 40mins for a cup of tea?

So disappointing. A lovely setting. Should have been a relaxed drink in a tranquil environment. Instead it was more of an internet cafe. One woman ruined the ambiance as she conducted a web conference for probably an hour, speaking loudly the whole time. Considering the cost of the drinks in this bar I would have thought the bar staff would have asked the woman to keep her voice down. How standards have dropped since the pandemic. Plus, tables weren’t cleared in a timely fashion. So save your money and drink in one of the many other bars in the city. A real shame.

I sat at the bar, and ordered a simple spirit and mixer. 8 minutes later, the bartender came back and said he’d forgotten what I ordered. I said it again, and he said it’d be another 12 minute wait. I left. I don’t know who has that much spare time to wait for a simple drink - especially with so many choices available on Regent Street - but it’s not me.

The inside looked lovely so we decided to have dinner here while visiting. (3 of us are from America, 2 from Essex UK). The food was not nice at all, and the service was completely horrible. No one came to greet us for over 15 minutes. When our waiter finally came over, he didn’t greet us, give us his name, apologize, or acknowledge that we had been waiting. He just asked if we were ready to order. He never asked us how our food was or if we needed anything once our food was served. It was awful. The haddock and chips were cold and had no flavor, and you get no sides with main courses. You have to pay an additional amount for sides on top of expensive mains. I would never recommend this restaurant to anyone.

I was really looking forward to staying at the University Arms because it looks like a lovely hotel, however there were several significant negatives during our stay: 1. On arrival to our (£440 per night) room - after a long drive and desperate for a sit-down and cup of tea - the milk in the room fridge was 'off'. Not a big issue you might say, but it took three calls to reception and a 30+ minute wait to get some fresh milk. When that arrived, it still tasted funny because it was some sort of UHT long-life stuff. Why? £400+ per night and you can't supply fresh milk to go with the two teabags you supplied? In the end I went down the seven sets of stairs to the kitchen and got some fresh milk from there (took the stairs because there was a big queue for the only two lifts in the hotel. 2. The way the breakfast room was laid out was weird... there was a bottle-neck between the bar (where the cereals and breads were) and the main dining area which meant that residents who'd ventured into the bar to get breads, then got stuck getting back into the dining area because there was a queue of people waiting to be seated for the first time. Lots of frustrated guests there... 3. The dining room was full, and yet there was only one coffee machine - making one slow cup at a time - for the whole hotel. Those who wanted tea needed to use a hot water flask that ran out every 10 mins or so and took another ten mins to be replaced. Lots of frustrated guests in the tea/coffee queue waiting whilst their breakfast went cold. No one seemed to be in charge. No one was keeping an eye on the hot water flask, so every time it ran out, a guest had to flag down a member of staff and ask them to get it refilled. The breakfast itself was very average, much like a school canteen, and I've experienced much better in a £50 per night hotel chain. Really poor. Add all the above to the fact that there's no parking at the hotel - something I did know about before our visit - and it's a definite thumbs down from us, we won't be visiting this hotel again.

Last Saturday, I visited Parker’s Tavern in Cambridge with a group of eight to celebrate my sister-in-law’s graduation. Sadly, what should have been a delightful lunch turned into a frustrating and poorly managed experience. While the food was of good quality, the service was utterly unacceptable. We waited over an hour and a half for our meals, and one guest received their dish 30 minutes after everyone else. The staff seemed completely disorganised, with no one taking charge or ensuring the experience ran smoothly. To make matters worse, we ordered beer at the start, which came in cans, and later discovered they had run out of beer entirely — only being informed when we inquired about our second round. The lack of communication and professionalism was shocking. Despite the quality of the food, the service was chaotic and ruined the experience. I cannot recommend this place unless you are extremely patient or willing to overlook appalling service.

Great ambience. Very classy. Would have given it 5 stars. However on two occasions the tea cups have smelt of very bad breath, meaning they had not been washed properly. This was a poor reflection on duch an esteemed place. Please check, as otherwise everything is perfect whenever I'm there. Can't say for drinking glasses and cutlery, as I haven't been brave to smell the latter, and always use straw for cold drinks.

Took my mother here for afternoon tea. The afternoon tea was nice, and it looked attractive. Service was fine. I just didn't feel particularly welcome in the venue, and it took ages to get our bill. When we asked to split the bill, I felt like this was a huge inconvenience for them. I certainly didn't feel it was worth the service charge - which, while optional, feels awkward to have removed. I wouldn't go back for afternoon tea.

The venue is grand and at the heart of the Cambridge city centre so does appear to offer a good footfall. The atmosphere felt chaotic and not enough waiting staff but managers who just walk around and do not much. The waiting staff got orders missing and/wrong and there was a long delay in getting the bread ordered when the break was delivered cold. The food was underwhelming - meat was thoroughly dry and filling of the pie very watery. Side dishes were cold and flavourless. It was quite a disappointment overall. For the price and what it is, I’d not choose to book again.

Would rate zero stars if I could… Booked afternoon tea for 5 people for a birthday treat; been three times before and never had a problem here but would never go back. Firstly, food arrived before the drinks which is a bad start. No oat milk given when asked. Asked for 2 pescatarian afternoon teas and were not given any salmon sandwiches, so had to ask for these to be provided; no jam or cream for scones, had to ask…again. The WOSRT PART is we asked for extra sandwiches and were NOT told that this would be £10 per plate! RIDICULOUS. £10 for three measly sandwiches and a small quiche. I have NEVER been for an afternoon tea where extra sandwiches are not complimentary - no where on the menu or online does it say this is extra. Complained to the rude manager as we paid the bill who was unprofessional and argumentative in front of the rest of the restaurant, and reluctantly removed the extra charge for the sandwiches. Would never come back after today’s experience - spend your money elsewhere if you want a nice afternoon tea

Do not go here by any circumstance!! We had a table of over 8 and the kitchen was incapable of taking our order as it come so they had to take a pre order which meant all our food was served cold, was halfway through the main before the drink arrived. Absolutely dull atmosphere and call themselves a good restaurant which is a joke in itself. The staff was nice but the restaurant itself was diabolical. Also charged us 10£ each, including a new born baby, for a cake we brung on ourselves for “storage”, absolute joke. If you want to pay premium prices for cold, sub-par food with no care or passion put into the dishes then this is the place for you. If you want a better meal, go McDonalds.

Went here for a nice Saturday lunch but was poorly disappointed on the food and the high bill! My partner and I had a schnitzel that was no bigger than a burger patty and the sauce with it had star anise! Worst combination! It was awful tasting. Didn’t even come with fries, they were £6 extra! Such a rip off. You can see from the bill we were charged £7 for still water!! Was it made and bottled by the gods? This place use to be nice but the food quality and quantity has gone way down and the prices gone way up. I won’t be bringing clients here again!

Very nice; nice location and lovely old building on the corner of Parker’s Piece green. Visited for a team lunch, and we all opted for the Afternoon Tea - which you need to pre-book. Staff were super nice and welcoming. Quality of the food was excellent, and you can have more if you want. It was a lovely relaxed yet special environment. Our server was attentive and did a great job. During our visit there was a harpist playing a lovely range of music. Not the cheapest option - but worth it. I’ll definitely go back.

The most disappointing afternoon tea imaginable. You can achieve the same effect by buying some teabags and prepackaged sandwiches from Tesco, and slicing the sandwiches into finger shapes, and it won't cost more than 100 quid. If you want a nice high tea, go to Fitzbillies. They actually bake things.

Really bad experience today for afternoon tea. Appalling service from the servers. Had to ask 4 times for cream and Jam for the scones to be brought. Asked 3 times for additional milk for the tea and 3 times for additional hot water. Tea didn't arrive until after the food arrived. Terrible terrible service- it spoiled what was supposed to be a special occasion. Food was similarly disappointing- scones were hard and not risen. Sandwiches were bland and tasteless.

I used to love this place. But today, on a hot day where all I wanted was a nice tasty bowl of healthy salad, there was literally nothing to choose from. A bowl of ‘mixed green salad ‘ sold as a side dish for £6 was literally a handful of baby salad leaves from a bookers bag of salad. Absolutely no imagination, taste, thought went into that. No cucumber, no beans, lentils…. Tomatoes nothing. Literally a dry bowl of leaves! Never been so disappointed in a place that I’ve come to for years because it was (historically) known for quality and imagination. Nope. Not this time. And even the cocktails were uninspiring.… On top of a wholly boring menu, any variety of healthy food to appease the summer heat was unavailable. Topped off by children given two totally different sized portions of fish and chips -? Off of the adult menus no less…. This was a thoroughly disappointing experience today.

Having been to Parker’s Tavern for many years we returned after a stint abroad. I had the (time over cooked )venison - lumpy swede that was not properly cooked and a side of mash. They did take it off the bill. The cocktails do not come in a cocktail glass and the wine list is eyewateringly expensive for very basic wines. The menu was very limited as well. Suffice to say we will be sticking to our usual haunts of Luton Hoo, Madingley, La Baita da Piero and Ananta Thai.

So first of all we were contacted and bumped from the main restaurant because clearly they had had a better (bigger) booking than ours was. They said we could eat in the bar. There were 3 of us. Two arrived punctually. There was quite a flurry of staff activity when they realised that there was someone sitting at the table we had been moved to in the bar. The rest of the bar was pretty full but not to capacity, although there were reserved tickets on the free tables. It took quite a few moments for by now 3 staff to decide that the guest who was seated at our table had to move. I was left standing in the middle of the bar and many of the already seated guests were able to watch what was happening. I was embarrassed but knew that I was not in the wrong. Fortunately the lady quickly agreed to move. We were provided with a menu and wine list. Clearly we didn’t look carefully enough at the wine list because when the bill for our meals arrived we had been charged £45.00 for three average sized glasses of Sauvignon Blanc. On asking the waitress whether she could check that this was right we were abruptly told that that was their price and that she didn’t fix the prices. I am gluten intolerant. Whilst their menu does acknowledge vegans by listing which meals fit this category, and from memory there is another form of food preference listed, there was nothing about gluten free options. I find this totally surprising and disappointing actually, given their positioning in the local restaurant hierarchy. (Which is up towards the top.) I was able to discuss my allergy with the waitress but nowadays most eateries offer the GF info as standard practice on their menus. We found the waitress quite remote. We expected more. We would have appreciated some reduction on the bill given the move to the Bar and then having to so publicly wait to be seated. This was not forthcoming. Indeed they had already added the 12.5% service charge. We had had enough by now or we would have taken it off the bill. Suffice it to say that my two friends and I won’t be returning.

What an incredible evening! Floris thoroughly took care of us, from start to finish. What a dream, food was incredible, service even better. Thank you Floris and Parker’s Tavern for an unforgettable evening! Already looking forward to our return

Nice food and fair price but children’s menu is woeful. Service was average for food but absolutely dire for drinks, the bar is totally inadequate for the number of guests. The restaurant really needs its own dedicated bar. The restaurant is incredibly noisy as no...

Really good place to go for a special night. Can't say it's cheap, but it is good value. The food is lovely as is the space. Our waiter, Nothing, was also great. It's a place I recommend to people

We came for afternoon tea, but nothing on offer due to out dietary restrictions, unless pre-ordered. Very limited range of food, so had undercooked meat patty in a hamburger. The gluten free dessert was good. Very slow service, and had to ask waiters 3 times...

We were four people. I got unfortunately an incredibly salted Pollock, which became just uneatable.It has been however refunded , The other meals were very good, and we have been served by a so charming and kind lady :Jenna.

Dull restaurant experience, food lacking in presentation and service lacking in charm. Have had better experiences in the local pubs dotted around. Probably wouldn’t return.

Fantastic, just what you expect from a place like Parker's tavern. We were there for my birthday with 3 kids, the staff were very attentive to our needs and tended us always with a smile. The food was just delicious. the Venison and wild berries is a must. It is a place worth eating

We had starters, mains, desert. Food was lovely and the service was great. The place is very stylish; it had a lot of cachet. We chatted with the staff who were very nice. Place is suited for private and business dinners. Highly recommended.

The building and atmosphere are fantastic. It's such a shame they are let down by such poor management. I can accept you don't take reservations for the bar, but when someone calls ahead and let's you know an approximate table size you can reliably inform them of how busy you expect to be. Today for example, I called several hours ahead and you gave me NO information other than to turn up and hope. Upon arrival, you explain the library is closed because you have over 100 guests staying over! Something you neglected to tell me over the phone, denying me the opportunity to book elsewhere. Fyi, I can see into the library and its completely empty. The management is completely ad hoc, so I would highly advise against betting your dressed up evening in such an amateur location. Pathetic

This is a great place to relax with a drink, work with colleagues, or meet friends or family for a meal. Both the space and the team are very adaptable to the needs of the guest; from an intimate table for 2 to a large,...

Visited here with friends on Saturday evening. Ordered mains and starter, though the starters ere forgotten about, our mains were brought out and at that point had to remind where are the starters? Halloumi was feeling nice though and bread and salad brought out. We were rushed to finish our starter with plates taken away as soon as we each finished, and asked before one us finished are we ready now for msin course. Main came out I had the chicken beating asked for chips but hot rice, they brought out chips on asking. Again we were rushed to finish despite restaurant only being half full. They tried to take my friends plate although he hadn't finished it. The mixed grill he had was nice though with the description and price £20 would have expected more meat. Overall food was good, but so cheeky to add the service charge onto the bill. Especially given service was so poor. I would have contested it but my friend didn't want a scene. Shame really as if it was not for that would go back.
