The Talbot Inn in Huntingdonshire

Great pub with fantastic food and wonderful staff, we travel over an hour to have a lunch at this pub, we love it!

Light lunch good value nice local bar

Really lovely friendly village pub, great food good atmosphere and the staff are really helpful, Been a few times and will continue to go.

Pub food done very well. Definitely worth a visit. I loved my burger and my son loved his gammon.

Food and service was very good. Highly recommend.

Great staff, customer service fantastic, freshly cooked food and came out hot,proper grub at good prices.

Really friendly helpful staff, we stayed in our camper in a tucked away space round the back..

Good value and always happy to accommodate special requests. Becky is a great server - thank you.

What a fantastic establishment. Good selection of ales, the food is cooked to perfection, and very helpful/friendly people serving you, that cannot do enough for you. We stayed in our Campervan overnight in their car park, and being just a couple of miles off the A1 is ideal. Thoroughly recommended if you are in the area.

We stopped for lunch and was greeted with a friendly smile and directed to a table with menus, we had the 2 x roast of the day which was hot and plentiful,and delivered promptly,we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch I would highly recommend

Food was amazing staff brilliant very attentive could not recommend enough many thanks

Had a meet up here with lads from work and customers team, I am ashamed to say having lived in Peterborough for years I had never been in here and being a craft beer lover added more pain as they had a great choice on tap. Locals were well friendly, outside space is great with tables and covered areas. We played pool in the bar and had a great time. We went for a curry next door after and the business relationship between the two meant I could have craft beer with my curry. An exceptional late afternoon evening I shall be back.

The best steak n stilton pie I've ever had, the pastry was sooo good !. I can also recommend the apple and cinnamon crumble with delicious creamy custard...

We called into the Talbot for some lunch after a friend had mentioned a visit there. We really liked the fact that the was a small lunch option menu as my husband does not have a very big appetite. The food was cooked to order tasted lovely even the peas which can sometimes be like bullets when you go out. I ordered from the main menu and the portion sizes were great and we thought it was all good value for money and will return.

Cracking pub, good beers, great outside area.

Great put of town pub, excellent large garden and separated games area for pool etc. Food was really nice especially the home made wedge of pie 🥧 😋 Nice atmosphere and not too crowded. Reasonably priced and a good selection of beer, craft and other drinks.

The Talbot always has a friendly atmosphere and good staff that remember you. Getting service and served in here is easy and there is a huge garden that's well kept to enjoy. The pool table is well kept and easy to access to and their jukebox has a wide range of music you can stick on. Great pub to go to with friends and play a game of pool, listen to some music or just watch a bit of telly.

Good village pub. Great stained glass windows.

A warm friendly welcome on arrival, messaged ahead, enjoyed a lovely Steak and free safe overnight parking in coned off space in pub carpark ..perfect. Will be back .

Had a lovely meal. Good hearty home cooked food, great portion size & value for money. Lovely staff too. Definitely come again.

Stayed over night in our motorhome. Felt very safe and secure. Lovely and friendly manager and staff. Ate there for our evening meal it was very nice. Met some great characters xx

A very pleasant village pub, serving reasonably-priced pub grub. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Clearly a very popular Saturday evening venue!

What an absolute find..we stopped here for lunch and a couple of real ales, so so nice. The girls behind the bar were so nice as was the chef who we also got to meet. We looked at the menu for our evening meal, and Becca recommended the homemade Beef, guiness and stilton pie. Well I'm not a fan of stilton cheese however the chef brought us a small dish with a few pieces of the meat with the stilton. It was really nice and to my mind I could not taste the stilton. The atmosphere in this little pub was amazing, it was packed on Saturday night and everyone appeared to be eating. We came in for a drink on the Sunday and I have to admit the sunday roast looked delicious.

As usual top quality service and food, value for money great, service always very personal and for a local pub always at the heart of the community

Excellent local pub set in the village of Stilton. As a Guinness drinker it's always a great pint, well poured, clean pipes and glass. The staff are very accommodating and friendly and the atmosphere is relaxed. A really large garden which is great to have a drink or a meal in during the warmer months. The pub has multiple TV screens showing all the big sporting events and the ability to show two events at the same time on seperate screens. Food is standard pub fayre and not overpriced. A really great asset to a lovely village.

We have had Sunday lunch at the Talbot today to celebrate a birthday. We had Turkey which came with roast potatoes, sausage wrapped in bacon, stuffing, Yorkshire pudding, gravy and 3 x veg. All was delicious. One of our party had pork and the crackling was amazing!!!!! We will definitely be back and would recommend.

Landlord and staff are always helpful and accommodating as we have found the 2 times we've visited. Food is basic pub grub and consistent.

We called in here on 14th of Apr for Sunday lunch after a recommendation. It was 1.40pm when we arrived and we were given a table for two and informed that because of a large lunch party waiting there would be a wait until they were served. We were ok with that and ordered 2 roast beef lunches. We had a drink and watched the football. It was 2.10pm when the waitress brought our lunches but unfortunately the chef had plated up lamb instead of beef. He had got mixed up. Time was getting on so we accepted the lamb. The appearance looked very basic indeed. Two slices of lamb, which were on the tough side, mixed veg of green beans, peas and three skinny slices of carrot that were swimming in gravy. Three pieces of what looked like roast potatoes which had been kept warm so the outers had gone tough. We persevered and finished what we could. The waitress came over and asked if we would like dessert instead we complained about the quality of the meal along with the chef's mistake. All in all very disappointing. To be fair they halved the price of the bill admitting their errors. Perhaps the whole episode was maybe to do with the chef not being able to cope with the size of the party but he should be able to tell the difference between beef and lamb.

We have stayed here on a couple of occasions over the past few weeks, in our Campervan whilst travelling en-route down the A1. It is a traditional village pub, that serves a selection of Ales together with an extensive menu. We use to live in Stilton many years ago, and so was delighted when visiting again after some 30 years, that the pub was still very much the centre of the village. There was a very warm welcome from the bar staff, and the landlord was busy in the kitchen making everything happen. The food is all freshly prepared and is presented beautifully. We will certainly be going back when next up in the area.

Outstanding! Went for a meal with the family. 6 of us at short notice the Saturday before Easter. The landlord and staff were warm, welcoming and acomodating (4 year old with us). The menu is interesting and varied. Once our food had arrived it was immediately obvious that all the food was freshly cooked and homemade by a chef with skill. Absolutely delicious and I would not hesitate to recommend this pub to anyone looking for a delicious homecooked meal near Peterborough. Thank you

Great food, quick and friendly service. Massive garden, includes 3 Pétanque Pistes with a great club, plays on Tuesday evenings from April - September.

Staff where really friendly and nice atmosphere but food wasnt great beef was so tough a steak knife couldnt cut it. left very dissatisfied wont be going back.

Food and service as ever excellent

Looked forward to a Roast Dinner, which was quiet nice but sadly let down by very watery Gravy. When we saw it was home cooked outside on the board we expected delicious Gravy too. Our brains obviously associate home cold with Gravy from the meat juices....sadly no

Great food, and great service at short notice. Lovely atmosphere

Food was good but a long wait although to be fair we were advised of that when we ordered.

Popped in for a drink, watching Darts 🎯 great service and atmosphere.

The Talbot Inn The Talbot is an excellent traditional pub just off the A1. There was a very warm and friendly welcome in the pub from John and his team, and the regulars. This is a real gem of a local pub, popular and busy. We ate a tasty evening meal in the pub - there is a theme each night eg pizza, grill, pie, in addition to the menu. The food is excellent value for really good quality. We had such a good time we returned the next night. We are sure we will return. Enjoyed watching the darts with the locals.

We pre booked a table as there were 8 in our party. Really nice meal, mushroom with stilton starter lovely! Various mains, gammon, lasagne, ham egg and chips, scampi all good. Chocolate fudge cake and apple crumble lovely! The cosy pub serves traditional pub food and is not expensive. Warm welcome from the lady who served us.

Only lived in the village 5 weeks, but really feel at home at The Talbot. The staff are so welcoming and friendly, the food is lovely, and a good selection of drinks, and the atmosphere is relaxed, inviting and enjoyable. Will be regulars for sure. A big thank you to the team that make every night there memorable and enjoyable. First class!

Read about this pub as serving home cooked food and was looking forward to enjoying an evening meal there.How disappointed I was to start my steak meal to find the 8oz rump steak was in two small,pieces and only just warm. The peas and mushrooms were of the same temperature.Not home made chips either but at least these were a little warmer.I didn’t manage to attract the waiter neither did anyone ask if everything was ok. When collecting the dirty plates I mentioned this to the assistant who said Oh I’ll let the chef know.Expecting her to give me some feedback as to what had happened we waited some time.As she didn’t respond my husband went to her to pay the bill and asked her for an answer to which she said oh the chef says the steak often splits like that.The 2 Pieces were clearly not from the same piece and no answer about the steak being cold.We were charged full price for our meal and no apology I might add that the menu’s on the internet were steak @£11.50 And the menu they were using charged£13.50.Don’t go there unless you want to be disappointed.

Very warm welcome. Delicious food. 😀

Excellent local pub. Stopped here on the way up to Lincolnshire. Cheery atmosphete. Plenty of parking and a great choice of food and drink plus a very friendly welcome from the staff. Recommended.

Just had lunch here, great food and service. Will definitely visit again.

Stopped here for one night great room very friendly staff and we had a great evening meal, breakfast was delicious to would definitely recommend. Thanks James and Julie (Norfolk)

Good pub grub that's not overpriced. Very welcoming staff and excellent service. Definitely worth visiting if your looking for a good value friendly pub

We've eaten here several times as a pit stop on the A1M and each time has been great. Food is very good, reasonably priced and the staff are cheerful. We'll be back! 🙂

Fantastic village pub. Friendly owners and staff. Good laugh too!

We had a great meal and the hosts were great and nothing was too much trouble would recommend this place to family and friends we had a wonderful time there.

Turned up 10 mins before the kitchen was closing in the evening, but Olivia behind the bar kindly took our order and brought our food to our table what seemed like only a moment! We ate Gammon,egg and chips,served with the freshest ingredients and accompanied with tasty garden peas. Lovely homely pub atmosphere, just the right balance and we drank a refreshing pint with dinner. The chef had cooked and presented the dish on warmed plated as if it was his first serving of the day! Over all a splendid occasion that saved our weary souls after a long day of travelling. Thank you all for the friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

Great stop over in motorhome stayed in car park for one night no charge as long has you eat or have a few drinks very friendly and great service food was lovely

Went for stag night. Had a nice meal. Bit to noisy for me

We had a roast a sa family:lovely meal very tasty Sunday roast we went with dad in his wheelchair and staff very accommodating and friendly

This is just one of the consistently great places we keep returning to. It's steady Eddy pub food from a traditional English pub with well kept beer and no nonsense. The homemade pies are a real treat, the fish and chips are just banging. The whole menu deserves its place at the Talbot Inn. (Please watch out for the new 20 MPH limits - Here Dragons abound)

Stayed overnight in camper van. Excellent meal and beer.

Great village pub, with good food and real ale.

Great home cooked food, freshly made,friendly service. Will be back.

Great traditional pub, called in ad hoc for a drink or 2 before our taxi, clean and tidy, friendly staff.

Great pub with friendly staff, stopped off with the Motorhome on way up North, and were treated to a fabulous meal .the steak pie is huge!

Really good price for the quality of food. Traditional pub food. Wine is good and reasonable price. Staff are fantastic. Only annoyance is the little sauce satchets. All in all good value for money and good quality. Last went on Tuesday Pizza night

Good old fashioned pub with good old fashioned food (sausage and mash for me). Reasonably priced with a nice beer garden and on site parking (limited spaces). Very friendly lady behind the bar. All in all a good experience

First visit to the pub very nice and warm welcome good drinks

Extremely helpful staff, nothing was too much trouble. Food great and reasonable prices. Would not hesitate to visit again

Always a great place to have a cold beer with family & friends and enjoy the classic food that's always value for money too. Landlord & staff always welcome you, whether you were there yesterday or a few weeks ago. Love it !

Lovely village pub. Staff very friendly and happy to have a chat. Plenty of space in the garden for children to play games. Food is very good for the price you pay. Selection of beer is good.

We decided to break up the journey from our London Trip at this great free campervan stopover. The Talbot Inn is another great pub with a large beer garden and friendly staff! Our steak and Guinness pie with gravy and loads of veg was spot on! 😋 It's been really interesting learning about the long history surrounding the name of Stilton and it's cheese connection - it needs Googling!! 🙂 Also, the village is on the old North Road!! UPDATE Just revisited again and enjoyed another fantastic meal again! BTW Olivia is a wonderful member of staff and made our evening so much more special! Thank you again Nigel & Claire 😊

Stopped over on the way to London in the Motorhome. This is a fantastic little pub, friendly staff, great food and they even had a space coned off in the car park for us. Very peaceful night in the van. If only there were more places like this. We'll definitely come again. Thanks.

It’s ok, that’s the best description I can give. We were waiting quite a long time for food but had been advised of wait- when it arrived it was very average but then it was cheap. Unfortunately my veggie option chilli was so hot I couldn’t eat it- and that’s not me being an annoying veggie, my husband- who likes it hot spice wise- agreed amount of jalapeños and level of spice made it tasteless and uncomfortable to eat. A shame and maybe if I’d had something different I’d have been able to eat it. Advised staff who said usually people say it’s not hot enough(!?!) but didn’t offer an apology or concession- we didn’t make a fuss as just won’t go again.

Good food, friendly service and good atmosphere.

Lovely friendly traditional pub ... not many of these gems left .

We met our friends Fiona and Andy at The Talbot Inn for lunch today. Really had a fabulous time food was lovely and home cooked, good value and staff excellent. We will be back

Awesome great food and lovely staff,

Great boozer, great beer and great pub sports

Grate pub. They do a brilliant pint and good grub. Great atmosphere and friendly staff.

Not bad. Beer selection was just OK. Food was nice.

Thank you so much for hosting us on our way to Yorkshire from Strasbourg, we arrived at 01:30hrs in the morning but we were still greeted and allowed to stay at this ideal BritStop. The location is very handy just off the A1, it’s safe and quiet so ideal. We will stop again when we have time and look forward to taking advantage of the pub food. NotAnotherStatistic

Lovely little place with a nice pint of Guinness and friendly bar staff.. what more could you want..

Pub food, nice garden no play equipment for children! Dogs not allowed in bar but are in garden, nice big marquee but doesn't appear to be used...

Very unassuming pub, very popular with locals. We chose the steak,Guinness and Stilton pie, and the chicken,ham and mushroom pie. They were absolutely delicious. Homemade with gorgeous thick gravy and lovely chips. Veg was frozen but ok. Then we had the cheeseboard which was plentiful. Great food, great prices!

Lovely food, friendly staff,value for money

Great landlord and great pub with good food

Clean and comfortable. Staff friendly and reasonable pricing

Nice local pub. Really friendly staff. Good selection of beers. Decent pub grub. What more could you as for?

Pleasant pub. Friendly staff. Very large beer garden and marquee area.

Great food, good selection of ales and beers and really friendly staff.

A lovely meal, helpful staff and a pleasant garden. Carpark good and near the A1 good for my family and friends meeting.

Very popular and well run pub located in the heart of the village.

We went on a Thursday lunch time so was a liitle quiet but that does not detract from the great service and fab food. Portion sizes are very good, menu choice was fantastic for starters, mains and desserts. All cooked fresh and very hot and tasty. Good choice of beers, wines, gins etc and although we didn't indulge they do liquor coffees. Definately going back to try the Sunday lunch and do some brilliant Weekday offers, see photos. All in all, excellent food, lovely setting in a nice quiet town. Give it a try, we'll worth the money.

Friday night - absolutely rammed!! And we still found a table and our meal was hot and fresh.

Lovely little country pub. Staff friendly and helpful. We had the Sunday roast which was delicious. Would recommend and return if in the area.

Great village pub, the staff are always super friendly and very accommodating and the food is delicious - and homemade! Highly recommend.

Friendly staff, good selection of drinks

Nothing special,just cheap n cheerful pub grub.

Visited as a family group of 12 to celebrate 2 special birthdays, absolutely everything went perfectly, thank you so much

Nice atmosphere with friendly staff and a very good menu.The stilton cheesburger was delicious.
