The best restaurants serving British food in Central Peterborough East of England

Yesterday I was treated to afternoon tea. *THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO* The food was locally sourced, freshly made and bloody yummy. The service was out of this world, norhing was too much We sat with a view of the cathedral. My Italian friend had never had afternoon tea before so it was quite exciting to demonstrate the way of eating a scone 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 cream first (don't come for me) Please go and support our local business. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Graham Cleaver Tracy Cleaver and Claudia Bloody marvelous!!

Had a fabulous lunch at The Bell where the food and service was exemplary.We sat outside in the garden which looked very pretty with the colourful hanging baskets .It was quiet on arrival so we had a choice of seats.The waitress, Helen, answered any questions regarding the menu and was very attentive and friendly.My husband had the blade of beef and I chose the chalk stream trout.Both dishes were absolutely delicious .We both opted for dessert and on recommendation I had the iced pistachio parfait which was a big hit.My husband chose the mini cheese plate as he loves the Stilton cheese and date cake combination.All in all a thoroughly enjoyable lunch again at The Bell .

Trabajo enfrente de la tienda en Peterborough así que voy allí de vez en cuando para conseguir algunos regalos o una bebida durante mi descanso. Carmen (lo siento si he escrito mal su nombre) y Alex son 2 allí que siempre son tan servicial y agradable conmigo. Ambos tienen una sonrisa que te hace sonreír automáticamente. No importa el día en que siempre parecen tan positivos y agradables para hablar. Y me han ayudado con las compras de regalos bastantes veces.

Feliz de que mi lugar para diacover propia. Buen aparcamiento y un buen precio. Volveré. Gracias! 5 ****

Prices were good, compared to local take aways. Portion size was good for lunch but not quite enough for a main meal, but I do have a big appetite. They actually put salt and vinegar on it rather than just waving the bottles near the food! Chips were proper sized. Batter was crispy and tasty. Sausage was not over done. All in all very good.

The best 🐠 & chips in Peterborough and Cambridgeshire. Large portions and the price is decent.

Visited Saturday afternoon for a cold drink and scone. Wanted to sit outside as it was such a nice afternoon. The only free table was literally stacked with dirty plates,glasses,cups,cans. I went inside and although the entire place was empty EVERY table was also stacked with dirty crockery!! Half eaten meals,flies everywhere. One of the tables outside became vacant so I ordered my coke and scone and asked that the table be cleared.. A very reluctant lad came out and cleared the debris,didn’t bother to wipe the spilt salt,ketchup and general mess up. Another customer was loading dirty plates from her table onto another but still nobody bothered to clear up. My scone came out like molten rock,it had clearly been zapped too long in the microwave. When it had cooled down enough to hold I tried to cut the scone,it was rock hard. By this time the staff were out enjoying the chaos that was happening in the grounds of the cathedral and clearly weren’t interested in customers. Definitely won’t be returning,the whole place was dirty.

Cuando todos los cafés y restaurantes estaban llenos, un sábado ajetreado a la hora del almuerzo, podíamos esperar en el salón Argo y después de 5 minutos se encontró una mesa para nosotros. A pesar de ser apresurado de sus pies, el personal siempre fue servicial con una sonrisa. La comida era deliciosa también.

Lovely hotel, with great facilities and service

Another great Sunday lunch at AW. Busy as usual, but we had to wait 45mins for the food to arrive, which was much longer than usual. As it was so tasty we didn’t mind. They’ve also put there prices up a few pounds, which again is fine as they still represent great value for the quality and quantity of food served.

Exceptionally lovely staff and a welcome break from the rather testing city that is Peterborough

Four of us ate here in the restaurant. Starters wild mushrooms in cream/garlic on bread. Mains - gammon, braised beef, pork belly and fish and chips. Desserts apple and rhubarb crumble. The service was excellent and food hot and tasty. Excellent portions and well priced. Only one suggestion- the crumble top needed cooking/browning more. it was pale and tasted floury. Also be nice to have some background music as only a couple of tables occupied.

We recently attended a private occasion here. On previous occasions when we have attended “do”s we have been able to park free, but the hotel is under new management and everyone using the car park has to pay. £5 for the evening….yes £5!!! It would have been cheaper to park in the station car park. Attendees were asked to make their menu choices a week in advance, fair enough. The food… the pigs cheek terrine consisted of slices of flavour-free meat in jelly, a huge amount of jelly, accompanied by pickled mushrooms and dry toasted brioche. Two mouthfuls was more than enough. You may ask why I had a second mouthful if the first was so bad - I was making sure that it really was that dreadful. Next, roast beef and Yorkshire pudding with vegetables. The beef looked promising, but was actually very chewy and lacking in flavour. The Yorkshire puddings were thick and solid and the vegetables undercooked, not just al-dente. Someone else on my table remarked that the gravy was the best part of it. However, the vegetarians had the worst experience - the kitchen had, wait for it……FORGOTTEN TO COOK their option! Yes, really! So we had a long wait while they found the poor unfortunate vegetarians something to eat. By the look on the face of our companion it wasn’t worth the wait. Desert was probably the least awful part of my meal, cold chocolate brownie and ice cream (half a scoop) on a very hot plate. Perhaps that was meant to warm the brownie up? Someone on our table had ordered cheese and gluten free biscuits. They were given cheese, nothing else, just cheese. There were some other oversights, for example inadequate cutlery laid. I would have thought that “new management” would be working hard to make a good impression, but I certainly cannot recommend this place on any level

Great staff. Good vegan choices . Cheap and very cheerful. Good food . Great coffee .

As expected from a weatherspoons service was quick - reasonable priced - food was good - pub was busy but no problem getting a table
