The best restaurants serving British food in East Cambridgeshire East of England

We had lunch here on a cycle around the area. Really popular cafe with 30-35 people in on a Friday lunchtime. Friendly staff and great home cooked food. We are doing SlimmingWorld and they had no problem swapping the sausages on their full English for extra mushrooms bacon and chopped tomato’s. Also scrambled the eggs rather than fried. A plentiful plateful. Scampi and chips also good. Food and and two drinks for under £20. Our only disappointment - the Victoria sponge was all taken by the time we finished 🤣🤣🤣 Recommended if you are in the area, it is a stones throw from the A10

Popped in during our Christmas break for a quick warm coffee and sausage roll with my husband and 3yr old. The gentleman running the cafe was so welcoming, laid back and friendly we are so glad we popped in. Coffee was lovely sausage roll was a good’n and the scone was delicious too. We are lucky to still have independently run cafe’s around Ely and I will be supporting this little gem during future visits to the city. Keep doing what you do as you do it so very well and I hope this place survives the corporate takeovers of high streets. We will be back!

Great service, friendly people, and great coffee and cake

Didn't eat but the beer is excellent.

We had Sunday lunch today at The Red Lion and it was excellent. Our table was booked for 8 but due to stormy weather and illness, we changed the booking to just 4 people. Nevertheless the owners were very accommodating and friendly and gave us an excellent time, friendly fast service and wonderful home-cooked wholesome food. We highly recommend this charming pub and hope to visit again soon.

What a gem. You must visit Peacocks in Ely. It have a wonderful host. He make me very welcome and a pleasure to meet. I will certainly be back.

The service in the cafe was excellent on a very busy pre-Christmas Saturday. The ladies serving really had it sorted and drinks and food dispensed very efficiently and with a smile too. Other farm shop cafes could learn a thing or two here.

Nice pub great for pub drinkers and also for those who want a pub meal. Very friendly and food was really good also. Well worth a visit

Excellent food and service from start to finish. This is very local to us, but still always a treat to go and enjoy. Regular specials in the menu and the coupon that own and run the restaurant are fabulous. Ingredients and standard of cooking is outstanding.

Lovely lunch with the family. Partner and his mum opted for pulled pork and beef brisket (his mum was well impressed with the brisket, her words best meat she's ever had, it just melts in your mouth) I opted for the cluckless wrap which was lovely. My parents both had fish and chips (not on the menu) they had some left from last night. They both said how lovely it was and no skin on the fish.

What an absolutely fantastic restaurant. Our first time there, and we were all blown away. The service is great, the food is top-notch. We loved it

This lovely tea room has indoor seating but also has seats outdoors at the back looking onto the cathedral. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. Our food was freshly prepared and tasty. Would definitely go back.

What a gem; this place is amazing as are the super staff. Beer drinkers heaven with well over 100 to chose from in bottles and cans plus some great draught beers. Come here every year around my birthday and never fail to be made very welcome. Heartily recommend paying this place a visit and its only 150m from Ely Cathedral.

Everything was perfect, except from the lady called Daisy saw her sniffing Coke and smoking weed in her car so not the best place to take kids when the servers are off their faces

When I went in the other day , pretty expensive, prices , the girl on the till had a blank expression, just stared me out as I walked in , when I payed she didn’t even give me my change , wasn’t worth kicking off about , Place was clean and the portions were generous .
