Solid old-school pub! Good selection of beers on tap and alcohol-free options too. Lose a star for not stocking scampi fries.

Very acceptable, Landlord was pleasantly welcoming. Real fires blazing. Good selection of reasonably priced ales. Locals seemed friendly and we ended up playing darts with them.

Las Abejas es un encantador pub antiguo pueblo en el pintoresco pueblo de Whittlesford. Podías dejar el coche en el amplio aparcamiento y empezar 30 minutos a pie de circular por el pueblo para distraerse . La comida es excelente local bien preparado con productos locales y está genial para el almuerzo del domingo, o estar afuera en un día soleado. Es agradable para los niños. La comida varía, pero siempre es satisfactorio y delicioso, no comer bien, pero una gran relación calidad-precio. El personal es fantástico, y te hacen sentir como en casa. Una buena experiencia.

¿Qué quieres en un pub? ¿Comida tailandesa, música alta, cervezas de moda con nombres "divertidos", máquinas recreativas de videojuegos, fútbol en la pantalla grande? Bastante, cada uno para ellos; ve a otro lado Una pequeña selección de comida tradicional y tradicional de pub (solo mucho mejor preparada que los pubs en la época en que se llamaba "pub grub"), música folclórica a un nivel que le permite continuar hablando con sus amigos sin tener que gritar, una colección de objetos típicos de pub y algunas abejas en la pared y conejos en el hermoso jardín, que son mucho más interesantes que el fútbol americano. Te va a encantar este lugar. Lawrie, el propietario durante casi 40 años, me informó que había tenido algunos problemas de entrega recientes y, como tal, solo tenía una cerveza. Afortunadamente, era una cerveza de Adnam y todas las cervezas de Adnam son buenas, así que estuvo bien. Más tarde resultó que, de hecho, también tenía todas las lagers habituales, pero aparentemente no considera que lager sea cerveza. . . top bloke; -)

As you face the front, the actual bees in the wall are to your left side near the roof. Busy and fascinating to watch. The pub has two sections to the left is the gossip and supping of drinks with friends, TV and friendly natter from Lori the pub landlord. The right-hand side is the restaurant, seating by what promises to be a very welcoming open fire in the winter !! Food generally served during their busiest times - which I understand is Thursday evening through to Sunday. Best to telephone and book. Up one step more tables for dining. Basic menu, but do not let that put you off. Last week Roast Pork - stuffing me thinks was inside the joint and all the trimmings - lushest roast potatoes (had to have seconds !) We visited again yesterday - Roast lamb and all trimmings. Nice day, others seen there seated in gardened area. The scenic route back to the car took us down brick made steps, through a trellis area which surprised us by opening to a very large garden area and wooded bit just beyond. Beautiful. Marie's food is amazing !! stolen pastry from the gentleman who accompanied me - melted in the mouth ! One downside, the place feels tired but has so very much potential. This is lifted by what seems like many regulars (which I hope we will be one). One gentle suggestion, along and leaning over the path, are the bushes which seem overgrown, this hides the signage and also deflects away from the strong potentiality of passing trade (the beautiful garden cannot be easily seen from the road) unless you know it is there ! Would be so nice to see Lori and Marie doing well. I wish them all the smiles they can muster !! Cant wait to get back there again.

We made a point of trying a new pub every month ad this was my choice in March ... driven past it and looks a good spot. It makes a point I think of being good value and for locals .... its not a gastro-pub , and as such if you are looking for that 'something extra' it may not be the place for you. It was a cold night when we went and the fire was lit but only just... local customers were at the bar and welcoming but the atmosphere was lacking . The food is good value and well presented , beer well kept. I am sure the really nice aspect , and its outdoor garden will make this a pleasant spot in the summer.

The battered gluten free fish and chips is amazing here. Light batter and fresh fish. They also have a delicious range of red and white wines to wash it all down with.

In a quaint old Village setting the Bees in the Wall offers home cooked food in unpretentious and friendly atmosphere. The staff are cheerful and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The Beer is truly excellent with great choice. There is a large Garden where you can sit in the Summer and children are made welcome. Lunchtime snacks or evening meals are equally good. A fantastic find for a pleasant night out.

I like the Bees because it's just basic and kind of old style. No sticky menus or food served on stupid things; like a chopping board or a roofing slate! They don't do a big menu - I think there were about 4 or 5 dishes last time and pretty standard pub grub like scampi and fish and chips. They were doing Sunday roast which I didn't have but I thought it looked good. It's like going to the pub 20 or 30 years ago and that's what I like about it.

I was tempted to give a Very good overall rating, however I don't believe it its classed as "Very good" Good Absolutely, worth a visit, "Absolutely" Its Friendly Cosy and quint essentially English. Lovely location with lovely little cottages near by. The fish and chips were good, I had chilli and rice, nice. The Sunday lunch wasn't the best my brother had, but again nice. I think the menu is a little limited. Would I come back. Absolutely. Well worth a visit. Will be lovely in the summertime to sit in the beer garden :)

Went for another meal in this cosy pub and once again received a great welcome and started with one of the many real ales on offer. Went for the fish & chips again as has so much flavour in a thin crispy beer batter and homemade chips. Managed to find space for a phenomenonal sticky toffee pudding...yum. Great value for money.

I was feeling lazy. Hubby sent me to Shelford chippie. I couldn't be bothered to drive in, passed the bees in the wall and saw the fish and chip sign, popped in for them to take away. Got a diet coke and excellent service. We both thought it was the best fish and chips we had in years. Well done, next time we will both come in! Thank you.

I came here for a couple of pints of ale with one of my drinking companions. The pub is a very traditional English 'drinking pub' although there is also a restaurant part to the establishment.The landlord was very friendly and talked to us about the local beers. The beer was well maintained and reasonably priced. There is no music and the atmosphere is very convivial, which is perfect for sinking a few pints. The decor is old world and warming.I would thoroughly recommend this pub for drinks and a chat.

Visited this pub on a Friday evening with relations. The menu is very limited ( about 7 items) however the evening we visited two items were not available. We were not told this until after we had ordered. Therefore everything left on the menu had chips with it.The food was hot and well cooked, if basic. The staff were friendly, but struggled to cope with about 20 people in the restaurant and the bar.Our plates were not collected, and we had to tell them that we wanted to order our desserts.The food was not over priced, but they could do with a bit more variety and another member of staff.

Rather than eating at motorway services, we turned off the M11 looking for a pub which might offer a bit of character and a tasty lunch, and we found it in abundance at the 'Bees in the Wall', what a great name.We arrived at 14:00, just as their advertised service finished, but the friendly landlord made an effort and we selected offered haddock and chips, which we were advised was fresh in that day. I think both my wife and I agreed that this was the best fish and chips we had ever eaten out, lightly coated in batter infused with herb the fish tasted delicious. We followed this with home made crumble and custard, delicious. I would recommend this hidden gem to any weary traveller.

Amazing experience! I visited the willow tree domes for my birthday last night and we had the loveliest time. The dome was nice and warm in the middle of December, and we had two attentive waiters that were keen to make our experience the best it could be. The food came out in relatively good time and was served hot - we weren’t left waiting for too long, which was great especially as the food was being transported from the kitchen inside to us outside! I even got a special birthday cocktail with a fancy sparkler in (not requested!) which added a nice touch to our meal. Overall I throughly enjoyed our time there and would definitely recommend to anyone in the area! A big thank you to the Willow tree team :)

Went for a meal last night which for the most part was lovely. However my friend had the beef burger in pretzel bun which was absolutely rock hard /impossible to cut or eat it . She did complain yet nothing was taken off the bill for that item.

Reacio a escribir una crítica ya que queríamos mantener este bistró en secreto. El bistró realmente es una buena relación calidad-precio. Vamos por el asado dominical cada par de semanas y nunca decepciona. bien cocinado y presentado. Encantadora zona de comer tranquilo. Un saludo especial al personal, muy servicial. Si lo visitas, usa el parque y el aparcamiento y sigue el camino hacia el Hospicio.
