Route 47 American Steakhouse & Grill in Fenland

Great food Great service & you won’t leave hungry. Would visit again & again

Friendly staff and good food. Huge portions, so a starter and a main is quite an epic undertaking. There was no music last time we went in, so it was rather quiet, but otherwise we had a lovely time.

Always a great place to eat. Lovely food, good service and reasonable prices. Our go to now we're living in the area.

Awesome place , very clean and really comfortable seating , food was lovely, 5 * from me

Visited with my brother and his wife on recommendation. Absolutely delicious and excellent service. Staff were lovely, we had two cocktails Pornstar Martini and French Martini and they were ace. Steak was cooked to perfection (ribeye cooked medium rare) the peppercorn sauce was the best I have ever had anywhere had been made from scratch. Kids meal was great an absolute gem of a place will go again! Would recomend

First time there went for breakfast amazing good value for money clean toilets good good can't fault it can't wait to go back for tea staff were fab

Blooming love it here and so do the children

Don't really know where to start, the experience here was beyond awful, in route 47 they don't know what hygiene is. Glass for drink is dirty, table dirty, under my "fillet steak" was an extension eye lash + on top of it curlie hair. Two waitress was standing behind the bar, one of them with dirty clothes+ brushing her hair behind the bar, another one constantly biting her nails and then serving the customers. About toilets don't have even the words to explain. This place must be checked by hygiene specialist to find if they aloud to even be open. Fallowing owner's answer: Well your blond lady from the kitchen had eye lashes. Check the cameras for the glass and all nail biting, hair brushing, dirty clothes i have no intentions to lie. To complain to them really?! I didn't complain in place because: First you have online for review's that other people will see where they go. Second what next would be from your staff maybe bitten nail or another hair in other plate! Now i understand why your staff have no idea what's hygiene, because you don't explain them when they wrong but just blaming customers in every single review. Have a good day. I have nothing else to say.

Came here for my sons 18th birthday meal,there were 20 of us but this was no problem for the staff,they were spot on with drinks and service,steaks were all cooked to perfection,highly recommend route 47 to anyone and will definitely be returning soon myself.

I had a sirloin steak cooked to perfection had a beautiful seasoning on it! The salad and dressing was outstanding! Service was wonderful Really welcoming and polite! The other people in my group also loved the food. Thank-you for an amazing meal!!!

amazing food and staff. Will definitely be returning!

What can I say, the food was beautiful and cooked to perfection. Me and others in my family had the buffalo bills burger and we all loved it! Staff are very attentive and food was 10/10🤩Could not fault the place at all, highly recommend!!!

Fantastic food great staff and place to have a meal with friends and family

Stopped off here with my son for breakfast and I can’t speak highly enough of the place. My son ordered the pancakes and they were amazing. Staff were polite and didn’t have to wait long at all. All round amazing experience, would definitely recommend

Me and my partner went for a date night I couldn’t fault it steak was cooked to perfection and my partner enjoyed her food aswell will definitely be returning

Lovely pancakes 🥞 and American breakfasts for the kids. Great service. Good that dogs are welcome. 😁

10/10 as always! Came for breakfast and it never disappoints. Quality food and quality service I’ll definitely be back!

Decided to treat the family to breakfast and what a treat! …. The staff was so helpful and friendly, the food was hot, fresh and absolutely delicious. Well worth the money and we can’t wait to go back!! Highly recommend!

Me and my family have previously been here for dinner which was amazing so i thought i would try their breakfast too. I had a loaded over the pond. Absolutely no complaints whatsoever. Food was delicious, came out in such good timing and the staff were super friendly every time we have been. Would definitely recommend and will be returning!!

Went for breakfast. Food was disgusting. Tea served in chipped mugs. American pancakes were horrible with a couple of tiny bits of streaky bacon. Friend had french toast which was like slime. Neither of us finished and it took ages to come. Will not be returning.

Waited over an hour for our food to come which was really disappointing considering it wasn’t really that busy, the young blonde waitress was really lovely though x

Was just an awful experience, waited 50 minutes for our food, was absolutely freezing in there, food was average nothing great. Very disappointing, over 2 other customers complained about food taking over an hour.

Went there for the first time and definitely I'm coming back again... Tomahawk steak was absolutely amazing. Staff polite and professional. Definitely recommend it 👌

Absolutely delishes food. Huge portions as well (we couldn't finish all our food). Prices are decent for what you get as well. Service was great as well. My only complaint is that there is no burgers named after the 49ers or La Lakers 😭 (all the burgers are named after US sports teams)

Absolutely disgusting. Drove from Peterborough. Arrived at 7.58pm Google states they close at 9pm , was told by a very rude waitress that they were no longer accepting tables ,there were only 3 other tables seated so not because they were full . How can you arrive a hour before closing and be turned away . Avoid .

Had the blueberry pancakes and bacon. They were delicious 😋

Amazing food, and calm atmosphere

Best grilled breakfast in the area

Really nice place. Food excellent and staff very friendly..

Was told best place to go for a good steak . Nah 40 quid said was seasoned salt n pepper ,,really bland .. all bland tbh . All I can say we tried it , and won't be returning .. didn't try ripping them off agreed to pay half the price it was .I think that was more than fair , as I only had a couple of bites of the steak . Salad was not really what I'd call a salad chopped up in tiny pieces . Onion rings not very good,iv better tesco value ones .

Been past this hidden gem loads of times and never been in, which I now regret as it’s fantastic food at good prices. I had the tomahawk steak and it blow my mind flavour was unbelievable, two people I was with had burger and fries and when theirs came out you could see the quality of the food so of course had to have a try of theirs and it tasted as good as it looked. So yes yes yes take a trip it’s well worth it and to the restaurant keep up the good work food is golden.

Absolutely delicious ice cream sundae 👌👌👌👌🥰

Good food but don't order too much a hot dog is extremely large, real dogs are welcome.

Lovely food, well presented. Very pleasant staff, good service and a laid back atmosphere, unusual and interesting decor - all in all a very pleasant experience.

Would definitely come again Would be nice if wet wipes supplied as we got well sticky eating ribs

Been wanting to try this place for a while and finally booked a table for me and the mrs for my birthday yesterday. Plenty of choice on the menu to the point I had to send the waitress away twice because my mouth was watering at the options. In the end we decided to go for the ultimate mac and cheese and the houston burger and share between us as we could not decide on one meal, had to go for the blue cheese sauce on the side aswell as an extra ;) Mac and cheese was flavoursome and worked really well with the pulled pork and chicken and the burger was juicy with nice smoky bacon. It's not often I have dinner at 6pm and not end up snacking again throughout the evening but we were both satisfied and stuffed for the rest of the night. Didn't catch the waitresses names but they both seemed on the ball and the desserts they kept bringing out all looked amazing as well, shame we did not save room for any. Would 100% go again and would recommend to anyone. Looking forward to trying either the ribs or the dogs next time! Music in the background also banging aswell as the nice decor

Been wanting to call in for a meal for ages.took our chance today for our anniversary.very few people in so thought should be ok.ordered food/drinks from a lovely young lady.starters were good the the mains arrived well if you like burnt tasting dried food it you will hit the jackpot.£35 for a mixed grill. Steak was well done(ordered medium) and tough tested burnt 2 small sausages chicken was dry thin slice of gamon and chips. Even the onion rings were hard to bite into. £total for 2 starters and 2 mains and soft drinks £96 WILL NEVER GO BACK. Food over priced and very poor quality. Over cooked and dry. Then to top it off a couple letting their little girl run round screaming. Perfect meal out NOT 🚫

Beautiful atmosphere and I love the memorabilia around the restaurant. The tomahawk steak was tender, juicy and delicious and the sweet potato fries on the side complimented the steak well. Great hospitality and service for my first time at a steakhouse. This is definitely a place to come back to and I strongly recommend.

Really nice place stakes are nice a bit tough and lack seasoning

Had dinner there tonight. lovely friendly waitress. I had lA burger, wife had chicken/ribs combo. Food came piping hot and lots of it! Burger was delicious, chips were fabulous and plentiful. Wife's chicken/ribs combo also excellent. Place is clean and pleasant to be in. Would be happy to go again and strongly recommend. Only one teeny complaint - Emilie Sade is fine in very small doses, a whole hour may be defined as cruel and unusual treatment! Great place, give it a try!

We come here lots. The food is really good

Absolutely shocking, called with a group of 10 people only 3 tables were taken and they refused our entry not being able to cater or seat 10 people. Attitudes stunk and I now have kids sat in the car for a 35minute drive back home gutted

Table booked for 6.30 food took forever to arrive 45mins for starter prawn cocktail think they went to catch them restaurant closes at 9 still waiting on main at 8.15

Cannot comment as I have never actually been inside this place, only ever used the garage for petrol, but the diner looks a great place

Travelled over 45 mins to try their American breakfast, other than the Name and the Menu there’s little american about the place. We had breakfast so can’t comment on the other menu options. The pancakes seem to be baked not griddled, leaving them dense and like eating a sponge cake with a cake tin crust, the waffles are clearly sugar waffles brought in and not freshly cooked, and being one of only very few tables had to wait over 45 mins for our order. I’ve been to many ‘American Restaurants’ and unfortunately this is the worse I’ve been to. Edited following response: The response from the restaurant somehow suggests that my review isn’t an honest account and I somehow I have a vested interested. I can confirm that neither are the case, we visited after my daughter found you online, we’ve lived in the US for over 6 years and seek out American restaurants to try. As I said in my initial review, I can’t account for the other menu items, I can only review as we found it this morning. It did take far too long, I’ve never had pancakes like those served in all of the 18 states I’ve visited and the waffles were brought in, the only shame in that is griddle pancakes and waffles are very easy to make fresh.

Met with friends (party of 5) for lunch. Milkshakes superb, food excellent and such good choices. Friendly staff, very helpful, shame the chilli burger was off the menu. The homemade coleslaw is great! Will return to try the steaks!

Disappointed with food, fillet steak wasn't great at all and my 5 year old ate it all - says a lot about portion Size. As for myself I had a bbq ribs that were extremely tough, hard and meat was barely coming off the bone. Ice cream was nice though ironically for a steak house. I would not recommend nor would come back. Waitress asked if everything was OK and I answered rib racks are tough, and they asked me if I wish to have another portion - no thanks! Surprised by majority of reviews seen in here.

We called in on our way home at 3:30pm there were two other families dining at the time. We were greeted with a smile from the waitress and could pretty much choose our own seats. The decor is lovely to look at, the walls full of memorabilia. We ordered our drinks which arrived swiftly and ordered four mains. Considering how quiet it was, the main courses took a little long to arrive than expected but they were worth the wait, very tasty and presented well. The prices seemed slightly above average, it wouldn’t put us off going back though. My only negative or constructive criticism would be the condition of the men’s toilets, not the most inviting and I expected them to be in better condition

Substantial portions and huge menu (even though advertised as a steak diner there was plenty more choice) at very reasonable prices. Bright and clean, great decor. Young lady serving at tables was welcoming, polite and efficient. Not the most auspicious of locations behind a fuel station, but ignore that and give it a try, as inside it's very nice!

A treat to visit. You need to be hungry

You get a lot of food and it's all OK. It just didn't WOW me. The starter was cold and gloopy (pulled pork barbeque), the rest...well simply OK..and considering the time we went, 3pm it was quiet but had a 20 minute wait post starter. Worth a visit though.

This is our go-to place when we are in the area . We enjoy the lovely food friendly staff and the reasonable cost can't wait for our next visit

Stopped off on the way home for lunch. Very nice food and good service. Staff very friendly. Prices normal for a diner. Although quiet for a lunch time I would imagine it gets busy in the evenings. Great film, music and sport memorabilia. Definitely worth a visit.

Well worth a visit, be sure you are hungry..

We enjoyed our meal out with friends. The service was good and the food was great

Food was lovely just the steak was a bit too well done other than that was a lovely meal

Been looking for somewhere new for our Sunday breakfast. So impressed with this place! Staff are welcoming and friendly. Place is clean and well presented and the food - wow. A perfectly cooked breakfast at a reasonable price. We'll be back very soon and would highly recommend.

Great food friendly staff will defo return

First time going to this lovely restaurant and it was fabulous, the service was fantastic as the servers and the host/manager would come and check to see if everything was okay, even though it was busy. The food was fantastic! My triple dog was worth every mouthwatering peice, the pulled pork well seasoned and the chilli not being too spicy as well as the hot dog itself soaking up all the flavour from all the sauces! I also ordered a Freak Shake which was honeycone and white chocolate with whipped cream, sweets and sauce on top! Could not stop drinking it 😁😁😁 My Mum had the houston burger whilst Her BF had the T-Bone steak which they also give high praise for! The atmosphere was lovely, with retro posters and signs as well as memorabilia along walls..... And a C3-PO! A must go to place!!

Excellent food and very helpful staff and when they heard it was my birthday they put a candle in my cheesecake. highly recommend and will be back again soon

Food was very tasty, best hot dog I have ever had. The other family members food was amazing too. Shame they never had Coffee Latte, but all good, will go again.

Visited about 1230. Lovely and quiet and very relaxed. Good food and friendly staff.

American dinner serving American menu items. Burgers, ribs, tex mex are the main items. Nothing over exciting in flavour's but food was hot. Freshly cooked, it took a while to get served but certainly served straight away. Buffalo ribs were a little salty, coleslaw was great. Clean restaurant but could do with a little more of a US atmosphere.

Very friendly staff good communication good food good atmosphere and easy to find took on one of the challenges very tasty

If you are like me you are underwhelmed about the quality of a steak. All I can say is you won’t be disappointed here, the quality and cook quality is spot on. The staff here seem very dedicated to ensuring your meal is excellent.

Been there a few times and I can honestly say that the food is always perfect tge stake is well cooked and tasty as he'll I can't wait to get back there

We visited on a Saturday evening at 5:30. The restaurant was fairly busy already and also they had a large party expected in. The food was delicious and the portion sizes were very good. Every meal was cooked and presented perfectly. We had two courses and were in the restaurant for around 2 hours and we did not feel rushed at any point. Would definitely recommend for some excellent American style food.

Wife has just taken me here for my 65th birthday and have to say it was excellent. Food was great and staff were excellent, would definitely recommend a visit to this restaurant.

Lovely place for a massive breakfast 😋

Stopped off for lunch on the way to Norwich. Very good quality food, freshly cooked and excellent service Would highly recommend

Food is absolutely incredible! We had the prawn cocktail and ribs for starters which were delicious and both had the Dallas Cowboy burger for mains which was out of this world!! Service is great all the staff are so friendly, wait times for food are excellent and the atmosphere is awesome! Definitely book a table as it's always booked up for obvious reasons!

Great food, lovely friendly people, good service.

Awesome food , large portions of food great value for money and friendly staff

Drove past this place so many times but had never stopped to eat there before,absolutely delicious food,good portions, very reasonably priced food,outstanding customer service..highly recommend

A great place for a meal alone or with friends.

Fantastic food, I had the TBone really excellent flavours. Food was hot. Service was a little slow but they were busy. Saw they had to turn away some 'walk ins' so advisable to book. Good decor throughout.

I would highly recommend the restaurant they do fantastic food there it was my first time there kev

Had a very enjoyable evening here,great atmosphere and friendly staff...my husband had a kansas city chief burger and he said it was the best burger he had ever had !...steaks amazing albeit a little expensive ...Great choice of food and desserts...would definitely recommend and return.... have to say we returned and I was a little disappointed to be honest...the menu had changed and the prices increased...the steak came with a salad which we did not enjoy,seemed very sweet... could only choose one side eg chips....if you want mushrooms or onion rings they were £4 each for each extra side!!...where as last time was included....still had a nice meal, atmosphere good and staff very friendly,just disappointed with the new menu 😞

Lovely food - good portions. Great kids meant as well. The decoration inside is great - well worth a visit!

What a fantastic little find! We’ve just had lunch there and it was such a great meal! They are feeders in there so make sure you are hungry!! Beth our waitress was wonderful! Ignore the negative reviews, they are talking bollocks!

Visited for the first time on Valentine’s Day. After reading reviews online and checking out the food pics on their page we expected a great meal - and it was brilliant! Delicious steaks, great sides, and a good variety of drinks. Good kids menu, not your regular chicken nuggets and fish fingers 👍🏻 Very friendly staff, professional and good customer service overall. We may have brought some chaos with our 19 month old, but the waitresses and the owner made us feel very welcome. We will definitely visit again. Thank you for a delicious dinner 🍽️ 😋

Called in with the dogs, great to find somewhere dog friendly. Food was lovely. Had chicken and ribs combo which were cooked beautifully. The girl working was doing a great job! She was doing bar, cutlery, seating people, taking orders and bringing food alone. What a worker. A huge high 5 to her!! Desserts were yummy and thank you for bringing the dogs a bowl of water. The place had heaters running and was OK to sit in but toilets were cold and this was it's only let down. Nice and clean all through though.

What a lovely spot. I wish I could cook steak like that

Myself and my partner visited Route 47 on Saturday (3rd Feb '24) and had a lovely meal. The servers were really attentive and service was really good - I'd seen other recent reviews about slow service and so had my reservations but was left pleasantly surprised. The food is priced fairly, and the atmosphere is great, with plenty of memorabilia on the walls for you to peruse. Route 47 is on a main road making access really easy, and there is plenty of parking available. My one and only gripe with my visit was that the food was not served piping hot. The dishes had multiple components and some were hot, whilst others were warm. The food was perfectly enjoyable, but would have been more so if all elements were piping hot. All in all, well worth a visit.

I would give this place 6 stars if I could. The staff, the food, the pub is outstanding. Thank you so much for the lovely time we spent there. The parking is not great but we were lucky enough to find a free space in the front of the pub. We will definitely be back

The food was excellent, plenty of choices. The attention of the staff was surprising for me, the lady pays attention to everything even to what you wouldn't expect. Excellent day. Thanks

Warm welcome, lovely, well presented food. Loads of great memorabilia on the walls, creating a nice setting.

Wonderful place, delicious food, good atmosphere, impeccable service. I'll be back! 🤣.

Great atmosphere, very friendly staff, stunning décor and absolutely delicious food. Highly recommended.

amazing service and food. staff were so friendly and accommodating. i can tell the food is freshly cooked. couldn’t recommend this place enough

Been looking forward to going here, wouldn't go back. The service is extremely slow, we waited 45 minutes for someone to take our drinks order and food was slow aswell. The wait wouldn't off been as bad if they had heating in there, it was freezing so much so that people were eating with their coats on, ordered a coffee to try and warm up but this came out luke warm, food is extremely average and well over priced for what it is

Absolutely loved the food! Decent portions, fair price and excellent service. Lively clean place with nice atmosphere. The food was the highlight though!

Havent been before, but the atmosphere and food were Amazing, will recommend to eveyone

This is officially my favourite local place to eat! I've been here twice for dinner and once for breakfast and can't fault anytime I have been here. Food has always been delicious and hot and the service has been nothing but fantastic. I asked about vegan options ready for another visit in a few weeks for a birthday and the owner was so keen to discuss these with me and was very thorough when explaining them! I will always recommend you as a place to eat. I came last night for dinner and am already looking forward to returning in a few weeks time !

Amazing place, wonderful food and lovely service if your passing definitely stop in on the way you won’t regret it! 🫶🏻

Decent breakfast but I think you can get better at other places locally for the price. It was good though but wouldn't make it my regular.

First impressions are always a good thing , which I experienced so very happy with the service and food

Great place to take a first date very friendly and helpful staff service was good we visited around half 2 so not very busy food was of a very good quality very tasty

The interior looks nice and the place/toilet facilities are clean & tidy. The christmas garland was a bit annoying on the entrance as was hanging at the awkward height, so every time have to bend the head 😊 Staff is a bit slow and not proactive, with little smile. There seems a little communication between kitchen and waitresses. The food was delayed, however no communication from waitress. It seemed like she just was taking orders and bringing the food. She never came to ask if we need anything. I asked for colouring books, however only one pencil was available for my two boys. I have read comments after our dining experience and can see the owner only accepts good feedback. I hope you will take customers feedback more seriously and improve service for future customers. Good luck.
