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.

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.

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

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.

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.

Went for our anniversary lunch and the lady at the desk said they offered a lunch takeaway service- order at the bar and they will buzz when to collect - what we didn’t expect was to £45 for 2 drinks and two cardboard boxes (one salad £18.95 & one burger £15.95) of food wooden cutlery on a picnic bench that we had to collect ourselves. Food was ok small portions but please serve on proper plates with proper cutlery - if I wanted a takeout I’d go to a burger van at a fraction of the cost!!

Second time eating here, and as per first visit, kitchen was painfully slow (despite small number of covers this evening). Other tables around us experienced this too. One couple had one meal served whilst other was kept waiting for 5 minutes as the other started eating. Our drinks arrived after dinner served, and had to be prompted for drinks. Sea bass dish served with 4 new potatoes, 4 peas, and a small amount of spinach - sea bass good, but sides diabolical for the price. Chef should focus on basics of a substantial meal rather than trying to be fancy and serving very little. Same applies to burger and chips - just shy of £20 for a good burger but tiny portion of chips. Again, lacking in portion size. Waitress was fantastic but had to do a lot of fire fighting tonight making up for whatever was going on it that kitchen. Lovely venue, lovely setting, friendly staff, but my word, sort out that kitchen. It’s letting you down.

Lovely early evening meal for 5 of us. Seating was by a window as requested. Service from Cleo was great, she handled the belligerent 80 and 90 year olds well. We were disappointed that 2 of our menu choices were not available - lemon sole and sticky toffee pudding - especially so early in the evening (6pm). Also, 2 of us had the crispy duck noodle salad, which was nice, except the duck strips with skin were not crispy (too fatty) and were left on the plates.

Venue is beautiful, one of my favourites in Cambridge, especially if the weather is good. There's plenty of parking space and a large lawn where some of the team played football while others gathered around the benches for board games. The food is good (loved the seafood linguini) and the cocktails are delicious (the passion fruit martini in particular). The place is dog friendly as well which is always a plus.

The food did not justify the price. And the price did not justify the food. Literally the worst meal out ever. Chicken, so dry we couldn't finish it. A slice of beef twice the size of a thumb print and a piece of pork belly smaller than my thumb. Stuffing, the wife didn't even get hers. No salt at the table to try and add some flavour to this tasteless meal. Asked for extra gravy (stated as bottomless on the menu) and got a thimble of bovril mixed with veg water. Not to mention £15:50 for a double pink gin and lemonade and a pineapple Juice and lemonade. Which turned out to be Orange juice and lemonade. Will not be returning, ever.

I've never eaten a real British Fish & Chips, so I find it acceptable. Maybe it's just the typical Brits bland food. But the curry sauce is super nice, the fish is fresh, no funny smell, and they fry it nice and crispy... Which is a plus.

Well you talk about a sleepy village pub with a bit of a reputation as a yo yo pub....Not any more...! Just had one of the best Italian meals outside Italy...lie not! Simple ingredients,no frills no arty food this is simple wholesome Italian food at its best, and it's a plateful! Fabulous pasta and chicken dish matched with a cracking red wine at a very reasonable price. Great atmosphere, easy going friendly staff. I was back in the Italian countryside where I spent a lot of time near Torino and Modena when I ate here tonight...that good. Worth a visit trust me. And....you must try the Lemonchello milk drink.. It's a family secret....and ...I have only had one this good in Modena. This a little bit of good old fashioned Italian cuisine and hospitality in the Cambridgeshire Countryside and its bloody fabulous. Return we shall...
