The Snooty Tavern in Huntingdonshire

My Wife & I had dinner at The Snooty Tavern with some friends & the food & service were excellent. The food & drink was all very tasty & reasonably priced. The service was very friendly and polite. We will definitely try and go for a meal there again soon.

Great staff and a lovely meal. They couldn't have been more accommodating and helpful. Very nice beer too. Would visit again if I lived near.

Decided to have dinner on the way home, friendly and helpful staff, couldn’t do enough for you. Food is good straightforward pub food and plenty of it had to take half my haddock home it was so big. Great value and great staff, I will be back.

Glad to see the pub reopened. Excellent Sunday lunch, great food at a reasonable price, great service and lovely atmosphere.

Just been to the Snooty Tavern for Sunday lunch. This has to be the best Sunday lunch i have had in years and years. The staff were excellent, the food was even better and this is a great find which we will definitely be going back to. Well done to the front of house staff and especially to the catering team. I rated this place with a five only because I couldn’t rate it as a ten.

Thoroughly enjoyed the evening. Great to have good food in walking distance. Excellent choice of specials and good value menu. We will definitely return.

amigo y yo fuimos en un sábado por la noche y nos saludó amable personal en el bar, ya que teníamos un par de bebida conseguimos charlando con la señora de la casa y luego tuvimos algunos cena (carne) que era cocinado a la perfección.Me encantó el lugar y hemos ido varias veces desde entonces.

We've been visiting the Snooty for years, and have never been disappointed by either staff or more importantly food yet. Go Caroline Nick and staff see you soon.

Fui a una fiesta en este encantador pub del país. El personal era encantador, que sabía que había muchas chicas bastante escondida en el Cambridgeshire campo. Los bocaditos estaba deliciosa y la Prosecco fluyen toda la noche.Gran lugar, gran ambiente.Es una pena lo de la propia equipadas DJ que emergió en el extremo y creo que eso Russ Conway todavía es corriente.

He estado en algunos acogedores restaurantes antes, pero lo que sucedió la noche ha evolucionado en the Snooty taberna era notable.Tan pronto como nos presentamos a este encantador pub/restaurante nos recibió el personal detrás de la barra y servían bebidas inmediatamente. Después de algunas amable chitchat y mi novia preguntándoles sobre una de las camareras 'increíble' conforman tonos, nos (11 de nosotros) llevaron a nuestra mesa y nos dieron menús con algunos maravillosos platos para elegir.La señora que nos sirvió, que supongo que era el propietario, era maravillosamente amable y respondió a todas las preguntas sobre el menú. Pese a ella nos decían que estaban teniendo algunos problemas de cocina, así que allí podría ser una ligera demora', los aperitivos salió perfectamente en un plazo de tiempo razonable para una cocina que funcionara al completo deje solamente uno experimentar algunas dificultades técnicas. Fui a pasar el pate y no podría recomendar lo suficiente. Entre el primer y un segundo plato uno de los empleados del bar llegaron a nuestra mesa con el maquillaje marcas y colores escritas para mi otra mitad.... Son los pequeños detalles que hacen que un lugar destacado.El plato principal, de nuevo en una buena cantidad de tiempo, estaba delicioso y cocinado a la perfección. Si hay pato en el menú, entonces estoy más que probable que pides y tengo que decir que este era el mejor que he probado.Justo antes postre ordenar contemplado le preguntamos al dueño si ella no me pedir un taxi de regreso a nuestro alojamiento de fin de semana. Unos minutos más tarde después de probar todas las compañías de taxi nos dijeron que tendríamos un 2 hora de espera debido a los taxis estar llenos esa noche. Después de un día muy largo todos estábamos un poco impactado y molestado por las noticias pero teníamos nuestros licores interrumpido por el dueño, que había impreso el menú de postres con una nota personal a nuestra mesa. Fue un toque realmente agradable y nos dieron vuelta en un alegre ambiente. Una vez que nuestros postres eran hecho y la factura era pagado nos trasladamos al bar. Como más y más personas la izquierda para ir a casa (tenían el sentido común para reservar taxis en avanzada) nos quedamos con nuestro grupo, el personal de la cocina y otro grupo en el bar. El dueño entonces dieron algunos juegos y nos jugando contra cada uno, hasta nuestros taxis finalmente presentamos. Fue tan divertido y realmente apreciamos haciendo sentir tan bienvenidos durante lo que era claramente su tiempo libre.Nos quedamos fascinados con lo mucho esfuerzo que estaban poniendo para nosotros. Otros lugares en los que he estado tienden a olvidarse de que una vez que se ha pagado la factura, pero no en el estirado Tavern; que sólo quieren a sus huéspedes y clientes tienen un gran tiempo...... y eso que no!

Viajo mucho y comer por todas partes que vaya, este pub de campo está realmente haciendo algo bien. El menú es corto y cambia todos los días, así que es más que aceptable ya que muestra todo el trabajo de la cocina. Visitando St. Neots a menudo lo he encontrado un poco de un páramo para disfrutar de una buena comida, pero ya no. Tuve el hígado de terneros y cuesta lo mismo que el venado; todo esto justifica finos.

On our arrival we were kindly greeted and offered a table, a very nice atmosphere abound, The menu was hard to choose from with many tempting items, the food was great and very tasty, well worth a visit and next time we are in the area we will visit Caroline and the happy house, a big thank you.

Fantastic meal with excellent service and the bill wasn't bad either. Great atmosphere and lots of fun. Will make it a regular haunt from now on

Decided to pop in for lunch on the way out with friends after reading the good reviews but distinctively disappointing just the average run of the mill pub lunch plenty of better places to eat nearby

¿Dónde podemos ir para el almuerzo de domingo? ... Recuerdo, the Snooty Tavern, que tenía un gran almuerzo allí a principios de año. ... 400, 11 de la mañana domingo por la mañana, volveré a reservar una mesa por 1,30 . ... Puede acomodar? Genial.Llegada, bar está lleno, bebidas, y nos enseñaron la única tabla en la zona del bar establecidos para el almuerzo. Gente en el bar desplazarse a la zona de restaurante. De repente solo, sin ambiente ... es mi tras afeitado?son buenas pero obviamente por 6ª local de servicio Frommers ganar unas cuantas más bob de fin de semana o algo muy personal le asigne. Muy agradables pero no profesionales. El primer plato servido en pocos minutos pero luego de una larga espera a ver a nadie. No les importa nosotros aquí en el frío? ... ambiente muy solos. Al final se sirve el plato de carne asada, pero la comida es, bien normal y muy caro. Decide no comer el postre y salir. llegar hasta conseguir factura para encontrar el propietario para comer en el bar propio almuerzo! A)Es una pena que no había comido antes de servir. B) se centró en los clientes comiendo experiencia en vez de su propia cuenta. Ella tenía pruebas almuerzo primero podría haber encontrado otro carnicero o carne proveedor donde la carne era menos grasos y tenía sabor más.No lo es triste cuando los propietarios pierden su entusiasmo para atraer y mantener a los clientes y olvidar que puede soportar comida mediocre si el ambiente es genial o, a veces, aunque muy rara vez soportar sin ambiente si la comida es excelente.Si lo que buscas es una buena experiencia y enfocadas en el cliente para comer en otro lugar.Por desgracia, no volveremos.

Nick and Caroline who run the Snooty make sure you get food that will seriously impress you. The pub also feels incredibly welcoming and is perfect for a relaxed lunch for two or a family gathering. They always get it right.

Great food, nice place and super service. Popped in as was nearby and was really glad we did! Nice touch with bread, water and black pepper mill supplied without being asked. Will definitely return

We had an early reservation on Saturday evening so it was quiet.Even so the service was excellent and could not fault the food. Definitely one of the best steaks I have had in the UK. Very friendly as well.

Delicious Sunday Roast. Great atmosphere and service! Everyone was really friendly. Will definitely return.

Llevé a mis amigos para comer el domingo. Preguntamos si podíamos llevar el perro, todo el mundo se rió ya que había pasado al menos 3 mesas de comensales con perros en mi camino al bara pedir! Así que no sólo a mis amigos, pero su perro pudimos disfrutar del ambiente encantador.Ellos muy sensata que aquellos con perros en el bar más que el comedor, que parece un buen equilibrio en caso hay cenas para quienes no apreciar acompañantes caninos.La comida era absolutamente deliciosa una gran variedad para elegir y todos estaban muy bien cocinados. La carne era poco frecuente, el mullidas y las patatas crujientes de yorkshire. El servicio era bueno en general una comida de domingo encantador y relajante.

What a lovely welcome awaits you, warm and friendly hosts and lovely food, home cooked to order... Good range of wines and in season veg.

Went back to the Snooty for lunch after a break of a year or so. Much improved. Efficient and friendly reception, comfortable seating, decent decor. Menu doesn't have too many choices, and I had a steak. I am not always a great one for steaks, but this fillet was the best I have ever had. Pleasant service, everything was ok. Well done Snooty.

We went in there today for a quick bite before walking around Grafham Water. The pub's staff are very friendly - especially with my toddler grandson who was given toys to play with. The decor is a bit odd -orange and blue paintwork! -and the loos could do with a refurbish -but the food we had was lovely. We had parsnip soup with home made bread and a great pud called interestingly Crack Cake! Beware of the woodburning stove which smokes a lot -ha!

Had a nice Christmas Eve dinner at the pub in 2014. We were very fortunate as the owners were not sure if they would open for food however they did! There were 6 of us at the table which was made up especially for us in the dining area. A nice girl named Lauren was our server and she was very good!! Attentive and friendly! Coming from Canada it was lovely to have a nice traditional English pub supper after such a long time.The food was great! 4 had fish and 2 had the lasagna and both were outstanding! I would recommend it to anyone who is passing through or in town.

I called in for a coffee before a business meeting and despite not really being open, they were very friendly and made me a coffee anyway. I called back for lunch after my meeting. Cheese and ham sandwich and chips was excellent with some salad and a ginger beer. Nice place, friendly staff and not expensive.

Had a lovely meal, as always. Members of the party had eaten here a couple of years ago and were not too impressed, but completely changed there view on this visit. Lovely menu catering for all tastes. Very friendly, helpful and welcoming. Becoming on of my favourite places to eat.

Went to visit the tavern after a long break. Wasn't as busy as I remember. Bloke who took my booking over the phone anthing but inviting. However all food on the night was very nice, so excellent value. Still a lovely friendly pub / diner who try hard. Good wine list also. Will to returning soon :-)

Nydelig mat .Fantastisk. vertskap.Meget god atmosfære. Kan anbefales på det varmeste. En gott bevart strøks hemlighet utenfor allfarvei.

We turned up out of the blue last Saturday night with two kids in tow (aged 6 & 9), first ones through the door and the staff were great! Food was good (pizza's and fish and chips), Doom Bar on tap and good humour from all! Cheers

Great Staughton is not the prettiest of villages but the Snooty Tavern makes a visit there worthwhile. This pub is an unexpected gem in an unlikely spot and definitely one of the best restaurants in the area. The welcome is always warm and the food is always beautifully cooked.I planned to write this review in praise of the scallops I had there this week - perfectly caramelised on the outside, soft and silky inside served with a wonderfully smooth pea puree that provided a fresh, sweet balance to the dish. Lovely!However, having seen the review from Rachel m below, referring to an experience 8 months previously, I am moved to comment. We have had christmas lunch at the Snooty a number of times and have always had a great experience there. The food and service have always been excellent. If Rachel m was uncomfortable with the positioning of the high-chair I am sure that it could have been moved had they asked. As for the portion sizes, which I have always found to be generous, perhaps she might find that an all-you-can-eat carvery would be more to her liking. I understand that there is one in Bedford she could try next time.

we booked a table for 4 adultsand a 7month old to have christmas dinner in advance letting them no that one was a vegetarian (that does not eat fish) and one was allergic to fish. they said they would be able to provide for this. so we arrive on christmas day at the time we where told to and was taken to are table which was right outside the kitchen which the staff where walking in and out of with hot plates and they put the highchair right in the way which was dangerous but they had cramed you in there. so the starter comes and its fish so we say we had arranged for somthing different for two of us. the staff said that was all there was so we had no starter, then in the christmas dinner the meat eaters was small and only vegetable was brussel sprouts , two slices of turkey and 3 roast potatos, 2 mini pigs in blankets and some gravey which was just a let down but the worst part was the vegetarian was a little puff pastery with a bit of cheese on and brussel sprouts that was all that was given for dinner. and when i asked where my 7 month old dinner was they went into the kitchen and brought out one pig in blanket and a roast potato which i thought was a joke but no thats what they gave a 7month old for dinner. so i then had to ask my family to give a little bit off there meal for her which theres was small already by this time i was just fed up and dessert came and it was christmas pudding and vanilla custard which not everyone likes but there was no alternative and my 7 month old was not offered anything. so when leaving being given are bill and still being charged £60 per person and are drinks on top . i would not advise anyone to have christmas dinner there.

The restaurant at this local pub was recommended to us by a friend, so we gave it a try with high expectations. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed. Only one other table in the dining area was occupied, so there was no atmosphere, and we could not help having to suffer listening to the conversation pf our fellow diners the whole time (and know that they could overhear our every word). The rather short menu included little that we really fancied ordering, and certainly nothing that excited us. It took a long time for our order to be taken, and also a long time for the food to arrive. It wasn't actually bad or unpleasant, just mediocre and boring, though my partner's rare-to-medium steak was overcooked and tough. We have no intention of repeating the experience. To be fair, however, the person who recommended The Snooty Tavern to us does eat there regularly and thinks that it is one of the best local eating places. Despite being listed variously as 'Bedford' or 'St Neots', this pub is actually much closer to Great Staughton.

Great service front of house, consistently tasty and beautifully cooked food. especially love Nick's gravies. Great atmosphere and my partner says good variety of well kept ales.

I've eaten at The Snooty on several occasions and the key for me is how well the standard is kept. Both in food and service.In fact the quality of preparation has risen over time and the quality of the ingredients is always maintained. Service too has been improved with several attentive personnel waiting on every table, without confusion. This makes for an excellent experience as all diners get their meals within seconds of each other and the supplementary orders are quickly taken.The setting is contemporary and clean. The kitchen is partially open to view and something I particularly enjoy as a diner. That said it was just a tad cool at the closest table, I assume from the back door being open. It didn't affect me but it was commented on by my fellow diners.I post the following purely as a "could have done better." Towards the end of the evening, although not particularly late, the private party that until then had not been noticeable spilled into the main restaurant. Music became very loud and it appeared that some of the staff joined in. That wouldn't have been so bad but I was trying to pay at the time and felt that it took second place to a bit of "Gangnam Style"! Hats off to the waitress who stepped in to finish the transaction while her colleague whizzed off for a dance!Don't forget that getting the money out of the guest is the most important bit. I'm sure a less amenable diner might have a little put out at having to wait pay.On the whole though a very enjoyable and tasty visit. I'll be returning.

We took 24 friends for a Silver Wedding celebration and the whole evening was perfect. The menu, choice of wine and service were faultless and everyone enjoyed themselves. Top marks all round - thanks.

We live nearby and went for a local walk with friends and ended up at the Snooty Tavern, it having been recomended by a friend. It was not busy and we had a warm welcome. We were intrigued by the local guest ale, and were impressed with it. We had a plate of Tapas to share for starters and then a vriety of main courses including an outstanding Ribeye Steak and some excellent Calves Liver. We had no spce for desert so finished with (good) coffee. The service was efficient and the ambiance was of a typical country pub. It was good value, and we would visit again.

Excellent food and exceptional value on Tuesday evening. Always a great atmosphere and very attentive service. Great real ales from local brewers.

I disagree with the previous comment. We took my cousin and his wife for lunch at the tavern on the recommendation of a friend and it is the first time we have been out for lunch when everybody has enjoyed their meal. We had the lamb and it was perfectly cooked, the vegetables had a wonderful taste and I have never seen such well risen yorkshire puddings. We had three different desserts between us and my cousin saId the creme brulee was the best he had ever had. I had the crack tart and it was absolutely delicious and my husband had the eton mess which he thoroughly enjoyed. We will definitely be going back.

We regularly come to visit this fantastic pub! Have never been disappointed with a meal! We love the atmosphere, friendly staff and would happily recommended to anyone. We love the freshly cooked food. Thanks for meal after meal of wonderful food! Celebrating Dads birthday tonight - The Snooty is always top on our list when looking to book somewhere! We will be back soon!

Very disappointing dirty, expensive and unwelcoming. Food less than average pub dog pooing in garden whilst we were eating

I agree totally with the review laura365. We had been told how great the tavern was and decided to go for our anniversary. I booked a table for a tuesday and at no point were we informed that it was a limited menu. We arrived and were ignored so eventually got someone's attention the owner I think. We ordered drinks which were wrong then we were given a menu which was their limited menu when we enquired about a full menu we were then told it was limited on a tuesday if i had known this we would not have booked. We were then shown to our table, we ordered our food. Then a large party arrived there was clearly not enough room so we were then moved into the bar area not especially the romantic ambience we wanted. Our food arrived cooked well I admit but it was only steak and chips we asked for French mustard and got whole grain mustard. This just shows the staffs lack of attention. Overall a very disappointing evening on what should have been a romantic night. I feel their attention is focused on big parties and not couples looking for a quiet evening . Would not recommend

We have visited the Tavern on several occassions and everytime it has failed to deliver, the service is terrible, we booked early to ensure we could eat before going out for the evening and upon arrival were ignored by three members of the staff for sometime before being given dinner menus to read at the bar by an abrupt and impolite waitress.Instead of being led to our dinner table we were told to sit in the bar area, we expressed to the waitress we had plans and were in a hurry, her response was blaise and she left us sitting for twenty minutes before taking our order, we reiterated that we were in a hurry and would not be able to have starters as we were conscious of the time before our evening plans. She continued to be blaise and left us in the bar area for another 25 minutes before telling us the table we had booked an hour prior to arriving (and the place wasn't full) was finally ready, after waiting 45 minutes; we now had to carry our drinks, coats bags and scarves into the smoky dining room and await our meal.After specifically advising the waitress of our dietary requirements my meal came out containing the ingredients I had specifically checked were not in the meal I had ordered! she took it away but left my husbands meal cooling on the table (apparently she expected us to eat seperately!) An hour after arriving we decided to give up and leave without eating despite all the trouble we had experienced we were still charged for our drinks, a small price to guarantee that disatified clientele never return!!

Friendly local pub/restaurant. Welcome was excellent. Efficient hostess. Food excellent. Only don't have the Creme Brulee, it is tinned custard with a crispy topping. But that was the only grumble.Will recommend and will go again.

Great service. Prices very reasonable. Enjoyable. Food good

We wanted a place near Grafham Water and found this pub on the internet. We booked for a family Sunday lunch, not sure what to expect as most places falter with the food quality esp on Sunday when it's busy. We were pleasantly surprised . The food was excellent and the staff efficient and friendly. When we book, the staff was thoughful enough to inform us that a big party has booked at 12.30 so we know to get there beforehand to get our order in. The price was reasonable and the menu choice was varied with allowances made for 'on the spot' request.Overall, a real find & will definitely visit again!

Always good quality food, and varied menu, staff and owners are always hospitable wouldn't hesitate in recommending dining at the Snooty Tavern. Wine is priced reasonably which is a real find nowadays! In these turbulent times its an accolade to the owners that the place is always busy, speaks volumes!

First, this pub is in Gt Staughton very near Grafham Water and close to St Neots. (So not truly a 'Bedford' pub).We weren't able to visit on a Tuesday 'two couses for £10' night but the cost of our meals was very good value anyway, and delicious.Loved the open fire in the bar where we chose our meals, but the restaurant space facing the kitchen where we sat is a bit bleak. There was a lively crowd in the bar, one group sampling the Tapas which made me hungry.Staff are friendly but perhaps suffering from post Christmas fatigue (Someone answer that phone please). There were very few diners but we felt a bit ignored. Nonetheless, a pleasant evening.

You can't go wrong with this place. Look out for the Tuesday specials which are such good value. Beer is always well kept

Popped in for Lunch on a Monday, lovely environment, lovely food, excellent value.

Went because of the Tuesday night specials but would definitely go at other times. Busy restaurant but good caring service. The owner/chef is brilliant. Makes his own bread daily. Really excellent and imaginative food. Very good Bordeaux wine at excellent prices. A true winner. They will do well. Thanks,Caroline for your great service.

After having another wonderful meal at the Snooty Tavern today, I thought it about time I wrote a short review. So here it is, great food, good beer, fantastic staff and brilliant owners, as always. We have been many times, but the most memorable was our wedding day in 2009, when we had our reception at the Snooty. Caroline & Nick couldn't have been more helpful in ensuring that we had a fanstic day with our family & friends.

we visited this restaurant for m birthday as it had been recommended in a local village mag. whilst we found the food quite good, we found the attitude of the staff left a lot to be desired. The twenty-somethings behind the bar seemed more interested in chatting to the twenty somethings in front of the bar; we asked for a menu, took it off to study but despite the lack of clientelle in the bar, no one bothered to ask if we were ready to order. there were 6 people (eventually) in the restaurant so the staff weren't exactly rushed off their feet. It was nice to have a jug of iced water provided and the bread rolls were fresh and scrummy. The food was very nice, but mine was spoiled by the piece of silver foil nestling in it. We were not approached to be asked if everything was OK, and when someone who was presumably the proprieter turned up, she spent much time chatting to the 2 other tables but did not so much as make eye contact with us, who,not being regulars, were no doubt off her radar. A subsequent letter to said Village Mag brought a very brief letter of apology from proprieter who seemed intent on blaming her staff, not herself for their attitude. the offer of a free meal was not taken up as it was not our intention to get freebies, only to ask them to up their game.

Myself and my borther chose the Snooty Tavern for a family get together for around 30 people. The owners couldn't have been more helpful in gathering all of the options in advance and then delivering great food and fantastic service on the day.Highly recommended for the good beer selection, location and excellent food!

Really good food and a friendly welcome from Caroline and Nick.Tuesday night specials are a favourite and the Sunday roasts are terrifically tasty.Great for a crowd of you or just a romantic meal for two.
