The Cuckoo in Huntingdonshire

Excellent lunch, looked after extremely well by Danielle. Nothing to fault

Great service - Kaci was my server

First time at this lovely inn. Very friendly staff, Kaci was an absolute star ⭐. With a food allergy to consider with one of the diners, she took extra care to check with the kitchen. Thank you!!!

Came yesterday for food, and boy did it not disappoint . Amazing hot food and excellent happy service to match !

Absolutely love this pub. The fires really make your visit so chill and cosy, had the signature burger and it was delicious. Louis let us know about the refurbishment so cannot wait to visit again I love this pub!

Delicious meal for my birthday and brilliant, friendly service too from Reece. Thank you

Food was cooked to perfection. Sunday roast was piping hot and portion size was huge 100% recommend to anyone and will be back soon Can't wait to see what the refurb brings

Had a lovely Sunday lunch at this characterful pub / restaurant, we were served by Reece who was polite; cordial and helpful, thank you. We have been coming to this pub for several years now and have even enjoyed Christmas lunch here in a great atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Lovely Sunday afternoon pub, the roast pork is absolutely delicious! Kaci’s service was great and added to the overall experience :)

Excellent as always at a Vinrage Inns Sunday dinner

Eaten here a few times, fantastic staff, excellent food by Scott!

Lovely place, great timely service by Reece

Thanks to Janeel for making our visit such a memorable experience. Food was delicious too!

We had an absolutely amazing experience at The Cuckoo. The food was exceptional—beautifully cooked, full of flavor, and well worth the price for the quality. Despite it being a busy Saturday, the staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely caring, which made the visit even more enjoyable. The pub itself is lovely, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. It’s the perfect spot for a great meal and a relaxed evening. We’ll definitely be returning!

We turned up at 19:30 for our reservation booked 4 days prior. We were told our table was unavailable and directed to the bar. We waited at the bar for over an hour (having one drink) before having to ask to we had been forgotten about at which point we were told by a rather embarrassed member of staff that we had been forgotten about. We said never mind and were seated, and tried to be very reasonable about it. We then had 3 attempts at ordering as nothing off the menu was available, the weekend menu only had a couple of options left and we ended up getting burger and pizza which to be honest we didn’t need to travel all the way to Alwalton to get. When the bill finally came it had “drunk refusal on it” despite us only having ordered 2 drinks. We we queried it with the waiter taking our paying he said it was a mistake and when we dared to say “bit of an offensive mistake” he then got aggressive. At this point I completely forgot I had a £10 off voucher so have now paid more than I needed to and don’t want to be further humiliated by raising it with staff. Needless to say you have just lost a customer of over 6 years. I have never had such a disappointing experience in a Peterborough restaurant.

Kaci was our waitress who was very polite and friendly throughout. Great food, great service and a great venue.

We live locally in Ortan and have visited semi-regularly. However, during our last three visits, at least one person in our party was unable to get an item due to it not being available, including the peppercorn sauce, which has been consistently disappointing. Additionally, we noticed that the restaurant was quite cold, making it uncomfortable to fully enjoy our meal. I did share this with the management team but did not get a response.

We have always had a really lovely Monday night out at the quiz night. The quiz is hosted by the bubbly Michelle, and the food has always been exemplary, as has the service. Their scotch eggs are superb, the burgers are great, and the aubergine gratin is a great veggie option (so I'm told).

I've eaten here a few times whilst away on business and always enjoy it. Great pub atmosphere serving good food, traditional ales all with great service. Until the next time.

We had a great evening at the fortnightly pub quiz hosted by the fabulous Michelle. A fun and friendly atmosphere and a lovely dinner as well.

Great quiz night ran by Michelle!! Great night out. Lots of fun, lots of laughs. Lovely & friendly staff. Very welcoming.

We attended the Monday Quiz Night hosted by Michelle. Great fun and a really good night. Fab range of questions and banter!

The quiz is a friendly night out giving everyone a fair chance to win....although that isn't really the point. A shame that once again, the Guiness was not available!

Food was okay, lasagne was good quality but quite small, beer was bottom of the barrel so made us sick and after sitting down, we were told by staff that our table was reserved for 45 minutes time

Lovely family meal and great food! Dannielle gave us great recommendations and great service! Thank you

We were served by Jancel. The food was great and the service was even better, they catered for some awkward allergies happily.

Our waitress Janeel was super friendly and a real pleasure to have a chat with while ordering our food.

Family get together, 15 of us saying farewell to couple emigrating. Leah was fantastic, nothing was too much trouble.

Reece our server was great and the food was absolutely wonderful. Thank you all 😃

Lovely service by Janeen! Food was awesome

Kaci was an excellent server. Very friendly and professional.

Danielle our server greeted us with a smile. As we were early we ordered drinks which arrived straight away. When Dannielle knew we were time critical she got the bill and card machine to us very quickly at the end of our lovely meal. It certainly makes a difference when served by cheerful caring staff.

Popped in for some drinks on a wet afternoon, and received a warm welcome and service by Michelle behind the bar. Look forward to returning

Nicola, was really run off her feet but her service was great 👏🏻

Didn't eat. But it was a very warm and Inviting place to be on a winters evening

Dannielle was a great host, very accommodating with our children. Delicious food.

Dannielle was brilliant with her service very efficient and bubbly thank you and see you again! Food was yummy 🤤

Lovely food. Really friendly waitress who was attentive and chatty. We even got sat by the open fire on a winter evening. Would come again .

The food was delicious, and the staff were wonderfully friendly and attentive. However, compared to its past, the establishment could benefit from some renovations. The windows are in disrepair, causing a significant draft, and the women's restroom is quite chilly. It's a real shame.

Lovely food and lovely evening. Quite quiet and an arctic gale blew in every time someone went to the loo so I can’t give you a 5 for everything, but it was on the whole wonderful. A highlight was the lovely Ella finding me some Stokes ketchup. What a legend.

Beautiful dinner and amazing service by the lovely Ella. Seated quickly and Ella was very attentive checking in making sure everything was OK. Highly recommend beautiful pub and beautiful surroundings.

Really nice time, Dannielle was lovely and made sure we didn’t wait for anything, will come again.

A really enjoyable meal at the Cuckoo. Louis looked after us from the moment we arrived. Food served quickly and our meals were top class

Lovely meal for 21st birthday, we were served by Dannielle who was very friendly and made sure our allergies were taken care of

Nicola was very attentive and served us well

Not been for a while but I'm pleased to say it was still a lovely pub. Tue food was nice and so was the staff . Kaci was a very polite and helpful waitress, friendly and warm. A good night out. And the pub was full so that speak volumes

Wonderful evening at the cuckoo Great service from Kaci

Extremely disappointed from the time we walked in. No service at the bar before we sat down for our meal. Placed our food order to be notified 10 minutes later the starters and the main course wasn’t available. Sirloin steak being a popular choice I would have expected this to be available. How can a restaurant run out of sirloin steak so early on a Saturday evening. We were offered the ribeye, which wasn’t great. Served with 9 chunky chips. Overrated and overpriced. Ordered dessert, to find pieces of plastic in the dessert. This was not only highly unpleasant but also concerning from a food safety perspective. To make matters worse, when I requested a coffee at 10:15 pm to help clear the lingering plastic caught in my throat, I was told the coffee machine had been turned off and no coffee was being served. This experience was deeply disappointing. It is unacceptable for a restaurant to run out of key menu items, serve cold custard, and fail to uphold basic food safety standards. Additionally, switching off the coffee machine while customers are still dining demonstrates poor service planning and lack of attentiveness to customer needs.
