The best restaurants in Stretham East Cambridgeshire East of England

As it's just pickup, there isn't much atmosphere, and that's ok. What matters is the staff are incredibly upbeat and happy to see you, and the food is absolutely divine.

A large family group went for Sunday dinner. Was lovely. Would recommend.

No longer a pub since 2021. The Lazy Otter Pub is however still famous in Cambridgeshire for its riverside location and for its bad meals and service. It was sold as it was making a loss due to serious mismanagement, awful quality food, staff that were not interested in delivering a decent service and who were totally untrained, its dirty and unhealthy facilities, and last but not least the lack of customers as a result of all the above and its unfortunate location. Access to the A10 was far too dangerous for pub goers and as a riverside pub the Lazy Otter failed as it only had two moorings, Restoring a bad reputation is one thing but increased traffic on the A10 cannot be controlled. The latter may be the reason why the pub is no longer a pub. On a beautiful summer's day, the Lazy Otter could, as a pub, have 150-200 people in the garden. Imagine these numbers trying to get onto the A10 T-junction. For safety reasons only, the Lazy Otter should never be a pub again.

Stopped here for a birthday meal I was offered dry Turkey or bits of beef that my wife had … my server cut a nice slice of pork and pushed it to one side before cutting a lump of fat fat with a tiny amount of of lean. Then I got 3 roast potatoes a choice of leeks or cauliflower. Apparently not both , hard undercooked carrots And a pile of stuffing. If you want a carvery do not go here. £14 was way to much for the small meal I had.

We stopped at this pub while doing a circular walk around Stretham. The greeting from the lady behind the bar was perfect. Bring a Sunday it was only a choice of a roast or the basket meals. We sat in the garden at the back and had scampi and chips. The food was excellent and very hot. The service was perfect and attentive.
