The Old Butchery in South Cambridgeshire

Didn't have food on this visit, Service fast, drinks hot and flavoursome. Will certainly be visiting again

Visited after Daffodil Festival in nearby Thriplow. We didn't have a booking and they very kindly squeezed us in anyway. The inn is beautifully and tastefully decorated. Lots of little details to spot everywhere including a cartwheel. Fantastic selection of books and games, you could definitely spend an afternoon here relaxing and nibbling. Separate children's menu. Was delighted to get an unexpected and delicious amuse bouche. Roast dinner was best I've had in a while. Huge Yorkshire pudding which had sage and onion in it for a lovely touch. Generous portions and well cooked. Very happy that we could get extra veg or gravy on request! Daughter had pasta she enjoyed and ice cream. I was driving so really enjoyed non alcoholic cocktails. Look forward to returning to try the regular menu. Staff were lovely, service very speedy despite them being incredibly busy! Highly recommended

Beautiful setting, tasty coffee and sandwich, friendly service. Thanks!

First time in the area and had a delicious Sunday Roast at a very reasonable price. It was beautifully presented and service excellent. There is a wide selection of good pub food on offer . The building itself needs a bit of tlc but the landlords are doing what village pubs should do . Great atmosphere too .

Came for a meal with a group for a friend's baby shower. Cannot fault the meal, delicious roast, cooked fresh and good portion size. However, the service was somewhat to be desired. I can excuse slow service on a Sunday when demand is high, but when servers/staff are rude, it's not acceptable. We had a waitress come over to our table and as she left she spoke to another waitress and put her fingers to her head (in a gun sign) and laughed, whether or not this was about our table, not professional at all. The lady who took our payment at the bar took the final payment from one of my friends, when my friend queried that there was something on there she hadn't ordered the lady said "that's not my problem." Terrible attitude. Shout-out to the chef though who came out to check everything was ok food wise, he did an amazing job cooking for everyone when the pub was clearly, very busy. Edit due to response: "2 more people added" was 2 children, due to being let down by childcare, the table we were sat at was a bit of a squeeze for 16 adults so we simply asked if we could have 2 extra chairs, for adults and 1 highchair for one of the children as the other one was able to squeeze onto the bench, not a massive ask I would say! I can appreciate things taking longer than anticipated during busy periods however, this was not communicated in any which way when it came to drink orders, in the end 1 drink didn't even turn up and we had to get our own tap water and cups. I can vouch for everyone at the table that we were more than patient, and nothing but polite to your servers, even when they rolled their eyes at us and, as stated in my original review, gestures were made to one another. It's disappointing to be left with a reply which takes little accountability, as stated previously, the food tasted incredible, it was just the way in which we were treated which left us with a sour taste.
