The best restaurants in Upwood and The Raveleys Huntingdonshire East of England

Last minute lunch decision and first-time visitors, we were met with a very enthusiastic front of house lady who turned out to be the owner’s daughter. Simple but extensive menu ranging from Oysters and Wagyu steaks and burgers and a good very good wine list. Its reputation for Sunday lunches is huge – intend to try that next. Starters were different in a very good sense and all our plates were cleaned – already booked for a birthday party in late Dec.

We have just returned from a fabulous stay at The Elm. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel most welcome by the fantastic staff. The bar/restaurant is absolutely gorgeous - very well designed, lovely decor and immaculately clean and tidy. The bar was very well stocked and the bar staff were beyond helpful. When we checked in to our room we were delighted with it. Very well decorated, spacious and with a superb en-suite. We had a lovely coffee machine in our room with plenty of pods and a mini fridge stocked with milk and water. We stayed for two nights and had breakfast and dinner on both nights too. The full English was delicious! Nothing was too much trouble and it was lovely to have the chef come to your table and serve the wonderful food he cooked. The evening meals were also delicious and cannot be faulted. Special recognition should go to the fantastic bar staff that couldn’t do more for us to make our stay a complete joy. Nothing was too much trouble for them. I would thoroughly recommend The Elm for a stay - the building is absolutely stunning and it is set in a picture perfect area. Thank you to all who worked over the weekend, you are a credit to your employer!

Excellent Sunday roast and well kept beer

We had a very good, healthy and tasty lunch (Puy lentils, roasted beetroot, walnuts, watercress, and mixed leaves). The young man serving us was excellent. He asked us which options were available at each stage when serving the meals. Very clear and helpful. When at the till there wasn't room on the tray for the tea, so the lady at the till helpfully brought the tea over to our table and moved a chair so I could get to the table in my wheelchair. A lovely healthy meal at a very reasonable cost with service that was prompt and helpful.
