Plough Cambridge in South Cambridgeshire

Great evening out with my partner and children. Phoebe served us and her level of care matched the standards of the food we were served. Great job Team Plough

Love coming to visit the Plough, The sun was shining today and was the first visit of many to sit in the gardens with a nice glass of Pimm’s - Brilliant service as always 😊

Came in with family. Staff were friendly, especially our waitress Chloe. Food was well presented.

beautiful pub with stunning scenery! Staff were very attentive and friendly.

Great service and food! I will be back again in a hurry for a fish and chips in the garden

The wait for food was excessive. The riverside setting was delightful. A 10% discount and an apology were provided to compensate for the slow service.

Chloe was friendly, helpful, polite thank you will will be back ONLY if Chloe is working 🥰

Food is honestly mediocre. Most is either tinned or frozen, and will be served stone cold. The vibe is either snobby or just dead music is quiet. Not worth the price point at all. Pork will be 80% squidgy fat.cold deserts that state they are served “hot” as well as a cold roast dinner and gravy. Arguably you are only paying for the fact you’re next to the River Cam. (Which reeks) don’t bother

Beautiful pub by the river, nice buzzy atmosphere on a Friday lunchtime. Food was good pub grub, not exceptional but still nice. The staff were lovely, especially our server Chloe.

A quiet evening. Had a chicken starter which was excellent with a super sauce. Then we both had the linguine that had the sweetest tomatoes I have ever tasted. Good quantity and excellent quality

Had a drink this afternoon decided to come back tonight for dinner excellent food and friendly service from Stacey

Brilliant service from Stacey and Phoebe :) Food could have been a little bit better but they were also very busy. Would defo return.

Lunch on a wet Thursday…… what a discovery, lovely pub, lovely atmosphere. Squid followed by the pork belly both melt in your mouth. The homemade gravy should be marketed just silky smooth and warming. Served by Chloe who was so attentive without being annoying. Will visit again and again

Faultless - came here years ago and the experience put me off. What a transformation. So proud to have this in Fen Ditton.

Great pub, welcoming atmosphere and lovely food. The pork belly roast dinner is my favourite thing to have on a Sunday - Jordan & the kitchen team do a fab job on taste & presentation!

Lovely big garden and a nice vibe. But the food is definitely overpriced - an absolute joke charging 5£ for a “garden salad” consisting of some un-seasoned leaves and cabbage.

What a truly wonderful time I had , the staff were very helpful and service was excellent the choice of the food was very well represented, and our party of 4 were treated to a lovely time , cant wait to get a chance to go back again 💯 all day long

Me & my friend came for lunch on Friday. Lana was amazing! So friendly and polite! What a lovely waitress and so professional!!! Food was lush and cocktails were good also and very reasonable! Staff were extremely attentive! Thank u Lana! We wish u all the best for your future! 🙏❤️ Terri & Shannon

Lovely spot for late afternoon.

Tool expensive and two noisy will not go again

Third time we visited. Second time we got turned away after being seated for not having a reservation. This time for our anniversary we had a table reserved, however the service was very slow. We waited an hour and a half to get our appetizers. Main dish after wasnt too much of a wait. But then for desert we had to wait a long time to get attention to get the menu, then we had were waiting a again a long time to try to order, but changed our minds and decided to leave because we didn't want to stay even longer waiting for our deserts to come. All this after that you have told us that you couldn't seat us the second time we visited, as you wouldn't be able to give us high quality service without a booking. Instead you could have accommodated us after seating by offering us a limited menu that would be easy for your staff the handle. Very disappointed in your service and told all our friends about it. We enjoyed the food and the view was nice, but if we're going to spend a significant amount of money we expect decent service.

Food very good everybody was very polite

Beautiful venue, attentive staff! Thank you to Phoebe and Chloe for delivering excellent service!

The Plough in Fen Ditton is a lovely pub with a cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. The menu features delicious, locally sourced British dishes, perfect for any occasion. The outdoor space is great for enjoying drinks in nice weather. Overall, it’s a fantastic spot for a casual meal or a gathering with friends.

Great lunch and service from Chloe

Riverside location is the greatest asset.

Quick and worm service. Thank you to Lara and Cloe.

Nice roast and very good service. Cloe and Clara were very professional and welcoming.

Lovely spot for dinner, especially in the summer by the river. Posh pub food amd quite pricey (2 steaks and 2 soft drinks was £85) but nice for a treat. All staff are lovely

What a lovely pub. Great food and staff. Thank you.

A lovely warm welcome and shown to a table.Lovely decor and extensive menu we opted for the three course lunch menu.I had butternut squash soup followed by fishcakes and salad and opted for a coffee and a small Sicilian tart for dessert.Well priced food beautifully presented and high standard.Service very good and we were not rushed at all will return

Great find, thanks to great waiter too, Ed

Nice environment to spend time for dinner/lunch with family too. Service is fast and food is tasty. Good collection of beers.

nice place lunch could have been a bit larger or offer a lager one

The food was delicious. We ordered the heritage tomatoes salad with goats cheese for me and steak for my friend. For dessert we enjoyed a very good cappuccino with a small pudding. Staff friendly and professional.

Great good and lovely location. Chloe and the team did great service. Baby friendly.

Staff were nice and welcoming. The Venue is very nice. It was nice and elegant, and was lovely and warm given it was a cold night. Service throughout our meal was very good they checked our meals were ok. We had each ordered a steak and had them cooked differently which they did very well. The sides for the meals were very nice. Though we felt the mushroom portion could have been a bit bigger, but they were very nice. Dessert and coffees were lovely. We also benefited from having a voucher code which gave 50% off mains, which i hadn't realised when I booked, so it was an excellent saving. We would have no hesitation in returning and would recommend them to friends and family.

Excellent expansive menu. The food was beautifully prepared and delicious. Attentive and friendly service. Attractive bar and restaurant.

The food came very late, just before we were thinking of leaving.. and we didn’t wanna be rude. However it’s better to get only drinks and some desserts.

John and his staff are always in top form,nothings too much trouble ,and it's just a great vibe there,by the river,and great food to boot!! Excellent,my fav place for eating out. Top marks to Louisa and Jordan for another fantastic Sunday lunch down at the plough

The service was good and the staff very friendly.

Absolutely amazing food. Worth the money but service was appalling.

Proof that just because your menu and prices are “gastropub” grade doesn’t mean the food will be. We were very disappointed. My linguine was bland with huge hunks of chilli. My wife’s fish was seemingly murdered, then dug up and burned. We sent back the burnt/wilted/cold vegetables, which should never have left the kitchen.

I Had the lamb rump and she had the chicken burger, both lovely meals finished with the chocolate bomb dessert. Top stuff

Smart but traditional pub. Wide selection of foods. Interior is predominantly dining with table service. But there’s also outside options. All next to the river cam. Very enjoyable.

Great food, very helpful staff. With tolerances

Excellent service. Well looked after by Chloe. Very friendly

AVOID THE BURGER. In the UK, burgers can not be served with pink inside and have to be fully cooked. Unfortunately, 2 of 3 burgers received by our party were far over cooked while probably trying to keep within this rule. Burger was hard on the outside and solid internally. May have also been the quality of the burger meat. Oddly 1 burger was totally fine.

Popped along to the Plough today 2/1/25, for a local business networking event #Business Buzz, nice venue plenty of parking! Coffee was lush, will return in the summer to enjoy the river view! Only £10 plus Vat to attend.

Family Christmas meal, food was excellent. Staff were very attentive. Thoroughly recommend.

Great food, Adam was an absolute diamond 💎 would recommend to anyone 😃

We have loved the Plough since we came here more than 6 years ago on the day we got engaged. Returned for Boxing Day lunch and we’re not disappointed - the food was exquisite and the service exceptional. Tom was fantastic - could not have been better! Definitely worth the trip to Fen Ditton!

Amazing main course and drinks but the desserts were a little disappointing... Great service from Frankie! :)

Chloe did a great job serving us today!

My wife had the Salad with Goats Cheese. When it was serves she told the waiter that she was unhappy with the actual salad (no0t sure all the stated ingredients were present) and the amount of goats cheese was negligible. No one came back and so to not ruin the occasion she ate the salad. At the end the waiter was again told that we were disappointed with the salad. and when I paid I mentioned it to a different chap who took payment. Again no comment made. All that was required was a chat with Manger about the quality of the salad and the fact that the cheese quantity (had they run out) was not in anyway worth more than 50pence and needing correcting. If the issue was addressed we would have happily left a tip. Thankfully the waiter quickly moved over the tip input on card machine which I suppose was him recognising their failings. As it is we will not be revisiting and you have lost 4 customers. So very poor customer care that would have cost about £1 to sort was just ignored. The mini deserts we ordered were then forgotten and so our coffee was finished by time they finally arrived. They should obviously have come together. Again no apology.

The fish and chips were delicous

Located on the banks of the river cam a short walk from the edge of town...great food and drinks, fantastic staff...big car park for those that drive, dog friendly ...what's not to like... highly recommend x

Had a great visit for lunch with friends. As on previous visits, the service was excellent.

Great service and relaxed atmosphere big thank you to Chloe.

Had a great time, lovely food and brilliant service. Thanks to Chole who served us.

We sat by a roaring log fire – perfect on a damp chilly day - enjoying a long over due catch up lunch with friends. Staff were helpful, friendly and attentive. The menu varied and reasonably priced and the food was excellent, served promptly, fresh, hot (where applicable) and with a smile. Tom and his colleagues went to lengths to make sure we had all we needed and were happy with our meals. Thank you Tom, Chlo and Florin, we will be back. Merry Christmas

Lovely location, clean and cosy. Nice staff but sometimes there's simply not enough of them.

Great service, team friendly and professional. Food was lovely. Thank you for making my husband’s birthday meal a great occasion.

Chloe was our server and her and the staff were amazing. Great food, beautiful atmosphere near the river and spectacular food.

Had a lovely lunch. Food was excellent. Our server Chloe was lovely. Would definitely recommend.

Chloe our waitress was wonderful.. Very pleasant & attentive. It was my mother in laws 93rd birthday, and she gave her an ice cream dessert with a little candle in it!! It made her day!!

Great pub. Excellent food and drink. Great service from Chloe.

Fantastic service from Chloe - lovely chill vibe next to the fire, decent lunch (minus a star for the gloopy butternut squash soup, but amazing chicken burger, brownie with vegan icecream, coffee with oat milk, all the good stuff) - I used to come here regularly before my kids were born, and thankfully it is still as good as I remember! Well done guys.

We are from Sheffield, were given a recommendation and were not disappointed. The food and service were amazing and the restaurant is beautiful 😍

Very good service by friendly staff

From start to finish, the whole experience was wonderful. The setting of the pub is beautiful, nestled by the side of the River Cam. The waiting staff were very friendly and professional. All the food we ordered was perfect, and there's an interesting selection of dishes on the menu - enough to satisfy anyone's palette. I will definitely be returning to this charming pub with its wonderful food. For me, this pub would be a 9/10 but the staff were exceptional and so I'm giving The Plough at Fenn Ditton a score of 10/10!

Great location, excellent food and judging by the number of people on a Friday lunchtime very popular pub.

Will is super friendly and the food is delicious here Thank you Will

Just had a really good Sunday lunch - service is fab too.

Will was amazing, really good service

Chloe and Will were great, the ambience of the place was very nice like always and the food delicious

Different Menu The restaurant is located at the quiet side of Cambridge. Didn't come since the pandemic. So the menu is more different than I remembered. The chips and potatoes tasted good, still hot in the midway of the meal. It would be better if the steaks are char grilled. The pasta was quite spicy but okay. It would be better if customers could choose their sides. Though the chips are genuinely tasty and well made. The portion was generous, no one is going to be hungry. It's not the cheapest pub in the UK. It's relatively expensive for an non town centre pub.

We ate here tonight after a long drive home from France and to celebrate a belated birthday. Had the T bone steak and Surf & Turf meal and both steaks were cooked beautifully. Sadly, l switched the thick chips for the billionaire chips, what a mistake, they came in a bowl filled with a sauce making them greasy and soggy, and didn’t pair well with the pepper corn sauce ordered and dish. I wish staff had been told about this as l ended up leaving them. The Trio desert to follow was a nice treat

Really thoughtful menu with a wide choice from the low calorie, but delicious, banana blossom stew through some tasty looking pasta / risotto options to the normal high calorie English pub classics. The mini desserts with choice of hot drink is a really inspired idea that leaves you satisfied without feeling you've over indulged. Will definitely return.

Our meal at the plough was delicious. The staff were lovely and our server George was very helpful

Absolutely beautiful place, had such a lovely meal, floren and John were very accommodating and so were the chefs with our requests, thank you for such a lovely meal and lovely experience.

It was my first time here, but some of my group had been before. Atmosphere was very nice. Service was friendly, but very slow. We were there for just over an hour before our starters arrived. Overall the food was bland and lacked seasoning. The lamb loin was well under cooked, tough, and still had silver skin on it That had to be sawed through. the panzanella salad was significantly under dressed with large hard croutons.

Great food and fantastic atmosphere. Trio Roast is beautifully presented and delicious. Linguine with prawns and chorizo is so flavourful. Will is always on his fast feet to go above and beyond for us. Highly recommend!!!

An amazing service and food for my dad’s big birthday. Thank you

Just dropped in Thursday evening, didn't book but got a table ok. Service is a bit slow but waitresses good.

We enjoyed the fish & chips & the banana blossom was so delicious & huge portion . Our host Stacey was lovely & made us very welcome & great service. The decor & surroundings are very calming 👌

Not very busy at about 5pm on a Thursday. We only wanted desserts and hot drinks before we took a stroll by the river. Very pleasant

Had a really lovely meal with work colleagues and Chloe, our waitress, was excellent! Would highly recommend!

Lovely time, Chloe was a great sever.

Food was fine, staff friendly and welcoming. Dog friendly place, lovely atmosphere here. Beautiful location and in an historic building. Love this pub.

I organized an event there for 8-10 ppl at the end of August, and I was really impressed how nicely everything was set up. Beautiful area that gave us privacy and tables were nicely arranged. The food was excellent - we had a buffet for 10 and there was plenty of food for everyone. Service was fantastic and helpful - very happy with this place as it really exceeded my expectations and will recommend this pub to everyone organizing a small party.

The food was simply amazing. The lovely Chloe served us today and was helpful and charming.

DO NOT ORDER ONLINE!! Ordered a DUO of BEEF roast dinner with 2 sides. I received a CHICKEN LEG, PORK BELLY and 2 potatoes…. No other veg, no gravy and both sides were missing. £36 absolute waste of money.

Cloe was a great waitress . Everything was great, very efficient and friendly service

Chloe was lovely. She remembered our order and delivered with a smile. The perfect waitress.

Come in for lunch the other day and was absolutely amazing! Thank you to Izzy for wonderful service!!

Visited here with friends for evening meal mid week. Staff were friendly and the food was great and reasonably priced. I found it on Search 4 sites app and they were happy for us to stay in our van overnight (2 nights). Large carpark which has a drive under building with head hight of 1.95. As we are just under 3m (lwb crafter) we initially thought oh no we won't fit, however you can actually get round the end of the building (a bit tight but managed fine). Quiet night only us here. Lovely setting by the river so imagine it will be busy in summer.

Food was really good! Really nice looking place to eat at, service was professional and quick.

Visit to the Plough was excellent - service was good , food was great I have no reservations but would not recommend to everyone since aware at £50 a head this is more expensive and not affordable for all but understand the pricing for the quality of the meal

Great food and great service from the best Bar man everrrr karel!!! go you
