The best restaurants in East Cambridgeshire East of England

Family curry night for 4. Booked online via their website. Warm welcome, clean & tidy restaurant and pleasant staff. Attentive but not overbearing, orders taken, drinks, poppadums etc. Excellent menu, good range with a few different dishes on there. All food was very good, tasty, well presented (table needed to be a bit bigger!) and good portion size. All in all, a great first time for us but certainly not the last. Would highly recommend.

The dirtiest coffee shop I have ever been in . Filth everywhere , overflowing bins, stairs thick grime and spilt coffee. Whole shop disgusting avoid at all costs. Visited in morning .

My mum & I wanted a bite to eat for lunch & at first tried the cafe on the Ben’s Yard site but found there were no free tables so we went into the restaurant to have a drink & small bite to eat. Upon entering, my mum made a comment about sitting by the window, the bald man with glasses looked over to the tables by the window (one was free) & then proceeded to lead us to a table in the centre of the room telling us, “I think you’ll be more comfortable here”. We said no, I think we’d like to sit by the window actually! Both ordered a Raspberry fizz but were told that they didn’t have it so we ordered non alcoholic Bellinis which arrived after a long wait but were very nice. We tried to order the ravioli but were told they also didn’t have that so we ordered the tart small plate & mussels. Both the bread that came with the mussels & the tart looked overcooked & I had to send the bread back as it was burnt in places & too well done for me. The bald man said he’d bring me a spoon for the mussels sauce but never did, I had to ask someone else for one. I needn’t have bothered though as the sauce was VERY salty, to the point it was not nice & I stopped eating it. We had a long wait for the bill & the server asked me directly if I’d like to leave a tip (not particularly great etiquette) I said no. Very overpriced for underwhelming food. And the collective customer service experience was poor, we won’t be returning.

Started using this takeaway after our local one shut, they allways deliver good quality chinese food very helpful staff. Use them all the time now

Good quality good value Ely takeaway. Turned up on spec but didn’t have to wait too long. Friendly service

Stayed here for 1 night after my son’s wedding reception. Lovely clean room. Staff were friendly. Will definitely stay here again

Great service and very tasty food. Served by wiktoria

I've been coming to Ali's for years and it's consistently top tier food. After moving out on my own I still insist on an Ali's when I come back to visit the parents. 10/10

Freezing cold, Half of our burgers was missing, soggy, so disappointed!

Always good tasty food, the owner is always friendly and polite, try their Tandoori Mix Special, and Garlic Bread with Cheese, they are both delicious, as are their Fries, I'm really a Chip fan not a fan of fries at all, so you know they must be good.

Tables and floor littered. Staff talking amongst themselves. Made to wait to have order taken. Emily was a professional manager, this lot are loud and unprofessional. Some of their friends came in, they were served before us, talking the whole time and didn’t pay. We walked out and went to Costa.

Used the machine to order and selected the “eat in” option. Food came and we were told that they weren’t doing “eat in” and we’d have to take it away - clearly their need to close early usurps any customer requirements. As we were staying next door it wasn’t a problem, but I wish I’d told them to keep it and refund the money. And the burgers? Lukewarm and barely edible. I wouldn’t use this branch again.

Best station coffee I've had in a while, Thanks! Really friendly lady serving who was also happily helping with some customer service queries.

Ordered a meal for two, duck stater, forgot to pack the pancakes, chicken and mushroom main, chicken over cooked, rice was good. Lots of choices in Ely, I will not use again

The waitress was lovely and good at what she did . The food was disappointing as we expected a much higher standard from the pictures of the food online and some of the reviews. The food itself was fine but very basic . The room lacked atmosphere and unfortunately was a quite cold as the heating was taking a while to heat up . It’s a shame as it’s a lovely location and I would think it could be very popular if the menu was a bit more exciting .
