The Wing Brothers in Cambridge

I have recently been in Cambridge for my friends Hen do, which I organised. We were due to be visiting The Snug Grafton on Sunday 1st August for a cocktail master class which was the last activity before we travelled home on Monday. I booked this event in early June, and have had ongoing communication with the bar and also paid a deposit. On the Sunday morning we were all gearing up and getting excited about our Sunday evening of cocktail making. Little did we know, this wasn't going to happen. At 12.30pm on Sunday 1st August ( THE DAY DUE TO ATTEND THE MASTER CLASS) I received a phone from someone from the bar, saying that our master class is cancelled due to not having the trained staff to be able to carry out this event. The lady on the phone explained the bar had recently been taken over and they don't check what bookings they have until the day.. this is absolutely ridiculous. To top things off, the lady was not sympathetic and didn't understand the frustration caused. I had to break this news to 7 very excited hens, with only 6 hours until we were due to attend our class. The deposit paid I did get back today, however that doesn't resolve the issue. I find it astonishing that a company does not check what bookings they have until the day and don't pre plan events like a master class until the day. I would advise anyone who is thinking of arranging a master class at The Snug Bar, to avoid. I wouldn't want anyone to go through the same situation as myself and my hens did. I was left with the difficult job of trying to arrange another activity due to the unorganised mess the Snug Bar has caused us.

Stayed for two nights in basic but completely adequate room, which came with an amazing full english breakfast as well as cereals and other alternatives. Evening meal was very good also (recommend the steak pie!) with a great choice of food. Staff were always extremely friendly, we would definitely return!!

One portion was almost enough for two people and it was delicious. It would have been even better if there was a disposable wooden fork with the order.

Our server was nice, but so disappointed with the food. While the food is somewhat made to “look” like American BBQ, its flavors were just odd and bland. It is definitely not authentic American BBQ. For example, Alabama white sauce with beef (as opposed to smoked chicken), the corn dog breading wasn’t sweet, the “carolina” pulled pork tasted more like a sloppy Joe. Also, the wings were more akin to fried chicken poppers than actual American chicken wings. The “iced tea” is not even close to southern American sweet tea — a stable at American BBQ joints. The Mac n’cheese was very flavorless. We wanted to like it, but unfortunately they just don’t have good quality American BBQ.

First time trying this place after reading the google reviews. It didn't disappoint! The food and service were brilliant. The staff are very friendly and always checking-in to make sure all is okay. The atmosphere was nice. They played some cracking 80s RnB tracks which was fantastic. Happy days :-) Food was excellent and the steaks cooked to perfection. The dry ice theatre that accompanied the Tomahawk steak and the Tiramisu dessert was unexpected and a surprise. Tomahawk steak arrived secured to a metal skewer along with chips, salad and all of the sauces. Rib Eye steak was delicious and the Mint Tea afterwards was a nice ending to a meal. Place is fully halal which is perfect. Would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Cambridge. It's approx 6 mins walk to Cambridge Central Train Station so very near the IBIS hotel if you were staying there.
