Absolutely horrible. I got carbonara and it was truly disgusting. I ve never in my life had a bad carbonata, i was shocked at how bad it is. The souce was horrible. The one in the picture is without meat because that s what i requested, but 3 other people at my table ordered it with meat and also said it was absolutely disgusting and impossible to eat. Someone else got pizza and it was ok. The staff was nice.

My finance and I dined at this restaurant recently and the overall experience was okay. The food was good, but the service was slow and the atmosphere was subdued. No excuse given the restaurant was fairly quiet.

We went on a quiet afternoon so the restaurant atmosphere was great. Toilets were also quite clean when I was there. Spaghetti carbonara was delicious. The chicken and chorizo calzone was not very good as it was very burnt on the underside (see attached pictures). Quite expensive lunch for a burnt calzone. Restaurant staff were friendly but they took one of our food orders wrongly. They mixed up the chicken & chorizo calzone with the risotto. By the time the calzone to arrived, I had already finished my carbonara. I would go there again for the carbonara but not the calzone. Also make sure the staff take your orders correctly.

We stumbled across this Italian restaurant after we had been punting and were on the lookout for some good food to warm up. We read the reviews whilst we were waiting for our food and we were a little apprehensive after seeing all the negativity, but we had no issues here at all and really enjoyed our lunch. The guy that seated us was on his own and was jack of all trades seating people, sorting drinks, taking orders, serving food, sorting payment. He did a great job keeping everything running smoothly as it gradually got busier. The menu includes grills, pasta, pizza and risotto and it is fairly priced, with the mains around £14-£23. There is also a separate lunch menu and there is a good choice of vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options. We both ordered the butternut squash and ginger soup and the chicken and mushroom penne pasta. The soup was nice, but definitely more ginger than butternut. We would also have liked some butter for the bread. The pasta was lovely, can't fault that. Decent portion size, hot, good amount of chicken and mushroom and suitably cheesy, which for me a pasta dish has to be. If I had one gripe I do not like it when restaurants add a service charge to the bill. I asked for it to be taken off, which he did without question. We would definitely return here. It was just what the doctor ordered to refuel and warm up. Good food in a nice location. We are glad we didn't read the reviews first, as we probably would have gone elsewhere.

Ordered food through Uber eats. Two pasta dishes and 3 pizzas. Pizzas were stone cold. Pastas looked like they had been microwaved. Tasted ok but hour later was violently ill. others said they were also feeling sick and we all ended up being sick all night. And I’ll the next day also. Absolutely disgusted reheated old food.

If you have two years spare in your life visit this place! This is how long it takes them to bring the food. The gap between starters and main courses are like dog’s years , guess what it wasn’t even busy! Two tables couldn’t handle them! Waitress had to print receipts 3 times still gets them wrong, I was waving at her more than 3 occasions and never noticed us. Food wasn’t that special either.

After waiting an unacceptable time to even order drinks eventually we ordered ... waited an unacceptable amount of time for our starters soup which arrived cold. waitress offerd to warm .... no we had had enough. refused this went to the counter to be greeted by a guy wearing his outdoor coat.... I offered to pay for our drinks as we were not prepared to wait any longer. he did have the decency to waiver the cost. The excuse for the lack of service was because they serving a large party..if we had been informed of this we probably would have gone elsewhere. it was evident there was a staff shortage but honestly this should not happen.

Food generally was nothing special.... my seabas dish came and I could smell it before it came close to me. Tasting a bit (fortunately) confirmed my suspicions. It was nice, however, that the waiter replaced it right away without arguing.... The replacement dish (cod) was, again, nothing I would return for. I also ordered an espresso that didn't come after 10min and I had to leave... friends later said it arrived 5min after I left...

Female server had no clue what the menu items were, got everyday food & drink names wrong, didn’t give a spoon for the soup, food ‘from the grill’ was literally cold, we had to ask for water 3 times as she seemed to forget, she clearly didn’t give a monkey’s about decent service, couldn’t split the bill, printed the same bill twice… I know it’s ‘hard to get the staff’, but surely someone should care at least a little bit!

Went for lunch today , firstly I asked for a smaller measure of wine than the measures advertised on the menu and was told no! Then we were told there was no bruschetta as they were awaiting a delivery! For something that masquerades as an Italian restaurant how can you not have bread and tomatoes?! After an hours wait for food my penne arrabiata , minus the chicken I asked for ,which the waitress ignored, was cold. How can you take an hour to cook food and it be cold? My Dad’s second drink was forgotten. There was one waitress working and a manager I believe and the waitress was not pro active and didn’t remember anything you asked her . They eventually bought a free drink for my dad as they forgot to bring him the one he ordered . I would not recommend this place nor go back. McDonald’s would be better than this place.

Had a meal for 13 for my cousins birthday. Lots to say… The restaurant was quiet and didn’t seem understaffed: - drinks took ages to arrived and missed a few drinks. A bottle of Prosecco took 1hr to get to the table after asking - took ages to order food. Arrived at 7:30 and starters didn’t arrive until 8:30pm.. which was garlic bread - don’t order sea bass, it came as per images below at £16.95.. salad was soggy and old and sea bass was very “cooked”. Manager took a long time to come over and no urgency given. Offered to give me a pasta which I accepted but even that was below par! - Philly sandwich was cold on arrival and 10mins after everyone else’s food - free bottle of Prosecco for the birthday girl, £55 off the bill. Hate leaving bad reviews, but this food/service is below average.

We was allowed to decorate the table for the occasions and staff were very supportive with us bringing cakes. Food was lovely and there was abit of a hiccup with one of the meals so they gave this free of charge. When they brought the cakes out Ethan was very professional and sung with us. Highly recommend this restaurant and would definitely go back. Ethan was a lovely waiter and very approachable and the manager was lovely too!

To make things worse the new order of spaghetti bolognese arrived cold ! The salad accompanying it on the plate looked exceptionally tired & without any dressing .

We decided to go here for a family dinner, the interior and menu sounded lovely, it was quiet for a Sunday evening so we were seated and served quite quickly. Our starters arrived and were all fine, along with our drinks. We asked for water for the table however this didn’t turn up which wasn’t a massive deal. However the main course food and service was incredibly poor. My parents pasta dishes came out cold, when asked to reheat them, they were returned to the kitchen and brought back still cold. Upon asking again for the food to be heated up for a second time it was taken away to be re-done by the kitchen. Luckily 3rd time it came out it was hot instead of cold. For my meal I ordered the vegetarian choice of a goats cheese and mushroom baked penne. When the dish came out I double checked with the waitress that it was the correct dish as originally she said it was a chicken bake. She confirmed with me what I ordered and assured me that the meal she gave to me was the one I ordered. Upon taking a few bites I soon realised that there was chicken in my food, as a vegetarian I mentioned this to the waitress who then had to walk away to talk to their manager. It turned out that they had got it wrong and had given me a meat dish instead of the vegetarian one I ordered, when I brought this up with them they didn’t really seemed fussed, just apologised and got the correct meal from the kitchen. By the end of the meal our experience here had definitely tainted our evening slightly and we left not feeling happy. Thankfully they did offer us a discount on the food which was appreciated. Would not come back here again.

We had a hen party at this restaurant, and although the food was lovely there was definitely some disappointment in the service provided. We were told to preorder a few weeks before the day but they never emailed the menus over until a few days before, and when we arrived (slightly late) they told us they'd wait until we had settled before starting to cook the meals but instead they brought them out as soon as we sat down which felt very rushed. Most of us had finished our mains before the drinks came out about 20mins afterwards, and the waiters didn't seem to know anything about the dishes (I was told that my risotto didn't have asparagus when it was quite clearly sticking out the rice, and we asked for no ham on a salad to which the response was there wasn't ham, it's speck (a type of ham). Overall they were nice staff and the food was good but the service definitely could be improved.

Wildwood was always a family favourite and we have celebrated countless birthdays, anniversaries there and had many meals out after days in Cambridge. Unfortunately today we had a family meal that was extremely disappointing. The food was mediocre, examples being the salad which was wilted and brown, and the portions of spaghetti bolognaise and lasagne were tiny and definitely not worth the £15 (approx) price tag. The pizzas we fine but again nothing special compared to what they used to be. The toilets were disgusting with the sanitary bins over flowing and floors covered in toilet roll and other debris. The whole restaurant was tired and grubby and needs some love and attention. After many many meals here me and my whole family are disappointed and won’t be going back to Wildwood at any location.

It was nice sitting outside - the little courtyard area at the back is very secluded. Margarita pizza was very tasty with a good crust (slightly black in parts on the underside, but nothing too bad) and was very reasonably priced. Pasta dish was enjoyable too. Mojito Cocktail (always my go-to cocktail) was refreshing and tangy, but not the best (nor the worst!) mojito that I've had. I would have scored 3 for drinks if there was an option to do this. Very friendly, welcoming staff, and a great location. I would definitely go here again.

Popped in for lunch today, had been there before but a long while ago so thought we would give it a try. Was seated at the back of the restaurant, decor was nice. The young waitress was very pleasant and took our drinks order and gave us time to choose our food. The drinks took ages to come out along with the food! I don’t think I ve had such a long wait for food before, especially a pizza! When the food arrived it was average, was expecting more flavour for a pizza paying over £15.00. The other off putting thing was right beside the kitchen they had used one of the tables to set up a work desk for the manager I guess? Stuff everywhere and boxes etc. if she was the manager (blonde curly hair, dressed in black/white shirt) she needs to talk to her members of staff not in ear shot of the customers- not very professional. At one point she was telling one of the waiting staff off, then she was walking backwards and forwards to a store room about 20 times. No smiles at all, not friendly! The other members of staff were lovely, shame the food and wait time let them down, especially when it wasn’t even busy! Definitely don’t go if you want a quick meal.

The interior is really lovely and is decorated very nicely, but the toilets were blocked and dirty. They didn't have any pizza or garlic bread, and didn't have either of the wines we asked for. We had pasta dishes which were unfortunately very bland, and I'm not ever one to send things back, but had to send the chips back as they were absolutely covered in salt.

Visited here recently, was very disappointed at both the quality of food and the portion sizes. Both me and my partner's food was bland and watery and didn't fill us up at all. The starter, which cost 5 pounds was just two tiny pieces of bread and oil. They also added an extra £1.50 to make my girlfriends meal vegan, which was essentially just removing the cheese from the dish. The food was overpriced for what it was and while the service was good I really wouldn't recommend.

Arrived early for our table and fair enough asked to wait for our table. While waiting we were made aware indirectly by team member informing other customer who arrived after us, that there was no chips and little pizza dough left. We then ordered our food with a very unenthusiastic server, with food arriving concerning-ly quickly. Which would have been ok if the food was to any standard. I ordered the pasta arrabiata which was EXTREMELY spicy (inedible). My partner ordered the peri-peri chicken pasta, which was served in a sauce… the sauce was grease. The pasta was overcooked and fell apart when attempting to put a fork through it, and to be honest it seemed like the meal were just microwaved. Furthermore, the service felt very unprofessional with the servers being very inattentive and unfriendly. When I mentioned to the waitress that the pasta was exceptionally spicy, she replied that she agreed and she complains to the chef about that. Overall, the restaurant had lovely decor, however we did not have a good experience! The servers were happy enough to take some money off (£5) for the spicy pasta, but unfortunately we will not be returning.

Great place, great food, I was sad that I couldn't have pouring cream on my desert but that's not the end of the world. And someone ought to tell their waitors that it's not polite to chew gum like they are Sir Alex Ferguson while serving and speaking to guests 🤭

Lovely restaurant with good friendly staff. Only gave 4 stars as the Carbonara was supposed to have crispy pancetta but it was more like chunks of ham, nothing crispy. Rest of the food was gorgeous though.

Two of us ate, it was pretty quiet, last service ona Wednesday evening, latest reservation we could get was 8.15. Still sat four tables all next to each other though which felt oddly cramped in an empty room. Food was good though, nice pesto garlic bread to start and I had a nice goats cheese and mushroom pasta dish. Friendly, attentive but not overbearing service.

I highly recommend Wildwood in Cambridge. Went with the girls for friends birthday and it was fabulous from start to finish. Greeted by friendly staff, food was lush and atmosphere very relaxed and friendly (no idea why previous reviewer was so negative!!). A massive shout...

We stopped in here for lunch on a very rainy day and were grateful of the warm welcome from staff and quick service. My son had the kids menu, which was excellent value for just over £7, as it included main course, dessert and drink. Good portion sizes which filled my very hungry 9 year old up! I chose two course special from the lunch menu at just over £11. I went for the "lighter option" of a pasta with side salad, and tiramisu for dessert. Really amazed at the portion sizes for the money. Everything was fresh, well presented and tasty. Staff were attentive and even ran after us after my son accidentally left something on our table. We were in and in around an hour and perfect for a quick meal when you sightseeing.

Probably would rate a 3.5/5. The restaurant was super cute but the atmosphere was a bit marred by the music. The food was good but not phenomenal. Enjoyed the sticky toffee pudding!

Обслуживание на низком уровне. Зашли в ресторан с семьей, 3 человека, Хотели пройти к столикам которые стояли дальше в глубине, но официант сказал что ему не удобно туда бегать. Ок , сели за столик вначале, стол уже был сервирован, возле меня стоял грязный бокал, отдал его официанту- он даже слова не сказал. Далее мы выбрали заказ, но официант куда-то исчез. Т.к. в целом настроение уже было подпорчено, то встали и ушли.

Very good experience. I will recommend. + We get a table without a booking (walk in) , which is very rare now, especially on mother's day. Fast and friendly service. Starters and drinks arrived super fast. Good price/quality antipasti (but I would add a bit more selection of cheese ;) ) and garlic prawns for starter. Good quality ribeye steak and cooked as I've asked. Medium rare. Thank you chef. Daughter likes her pasta (big portion with lots of porcini mushrooms & chicken). Warm, fresh and tasty chocolate brownie. Thank you 5 star experience today.

Great meal at fair prices. I consider this one of the best value / good food restaurants in Cambridge. Central Cambridge restaurant meals often feel overpriced to me, but not Wildwood. Will use again.

Four of us visited at midday today and were greeted warmly by the young lady behind the bar. This good greeting plus a nice atmosphere when we were actually seated and settled made the visit very enjoyable. Many thanks Barbara.

Back when this vaults was a really nice cocktail bar. Haven't been here in a while and boy it's taken a dive. The cocktails where great a bit pricey, the bar staff friendly, but the physical premises has seen better days. The men's toilet top 5 worst toilets I've ever been had the displeasure of using. 1 urinal full to the brim with piss and a dead fly floating in it, and given how quiet it was at the time, that wasn't from that evening. Cubicals locks broken and graffiti everywhere.

Usual Cafe Nero. This one is very busy as on Kings Parade. I was able to get a place to sit in the cafe. Would be great if there was a time limit on people staying there. Seemed to be full of students on their laptops and empty coffee caps. Also didn't know you had to get a number to use the loo.
