The best restaurants serving Default food in Barton South Cambridgeshire East of England

Best pub I’ve visited. 5/5 would recommend.

Six of us, old school friends going back over seventy years, meet here for lunch at this delightful venue every six months. During our last visit on 8th October, we all enjoyed an excellent lunch served up in generous quantities. The staff were very attentive and looked after us very well, with a special mention for Rachel who really knows what customer service is all about. Needless to say, we are all looking forward to our next reunion lunch at The Three Horseshoes in Madingley.

Thought it time I wrote a 5 star review as I have been visiting The Blue Ball for a few years now having discovered it due to working occasionally in Cambridge. I usually visit solo after work and sometimes bring friends and family. The staff are always welcoming, the food consistently high quality and the ambience just right. I can't fault it and it has become my favourite pub-possibly of all time. I am also very impressed that all reviews are responded to. Thank you for your hospitality. Rachel

Luk Thai is a real addition to Barton. Great food for a take away. Not eaten in yet.

Really disappointing went for a late supper,shared cheese stater took 45 minutes,both bar staff completely uninterested in checking in for drinks,or food. The service was completely awful in clearing table even after I stacked the plates for them no mention of do you require another drunk etc. Totally despondent service won't return.

Menu somewhat limited but food was lovely. It was very busy and lots of people talking inside was inevitably loud; however, this was made unbearable by the rock music blasting out from the speakers. When we mentioned it to a staff member she wasn't interested. We would have stayed for cake but as it was couldn't bear the noise any longer.

Ate here with family early Saturday evening for the first time and was not disappointed with our choice.The food was first class we had two fillet steaks and two vegan meals which were both cooked to perfection.The staff were very helpful and very friendly and the setting was perfect,would highly recommend and will definitely be back.

Last minute plan to bring a relative here for dinner. Although we had not booked a table for our party of 7, we were warmly welcomed and served a variety of delicious dishes that were tailored to everybody’s individual tastes and dietary requirements. Nothing was too much trouble, I could not recommend Luk Thai highly enough, thank you

We decided one evening when visiting Cambridge to have our evening meal at this public house. We had pre-booked and on arrival was taken to a table for two. It did take quite a while before out drinks arrived and we both ordered the same meal the neck of lamb. We were very hungry and imagine my shock when this very, very small meal arrived! There were no vegetables and no potatoes or fires. After eating our meal we paid, which took quite a while and we were still hungry and yet the price for our meals was not cheap and this was a pub not a restaurant. I would advise anyone visiting Cambridge to explore some of the many restaurants in the city and then you will not be disappointed.

A really lovely place with plants, christmas decorations, and grocery(a lot of things seemed local would definitely come back for the local honey that even had a batch number on it). There is even a small cozy cafe. Loved the place.

Great place but the queue was enormous! So gave up due to the very long waiting time... Must be fabulous to sit outside in the garden in summer time!

I was given pub vouchers to celebrate our wedding anniversary so I picked the Red lion to use them as they were listed on the pub tokens website. We told the staff when we arrived and were reassured it would be fine to use them. When it came to paying the bill the staff disappeared for ages and came back to tell us we could not use our vouchers. This ruined what was supposed to be a lovely treat. In contacting the pub I was informed ( after a month of waiting) that we should have been able to use them and could do so next time. This is not very useful and no goodwill gesture was mentioned whatsoever. The food was expensive but good however the place lacked atmosphere and the service was terrible. We were ignored for quite some time before we could even place a drinks order. I would not hurry back to The Red Lion.

Although busy, a great atmosphere. Food was superb, We had the Sunday roast. Staff very attentive and friendly. Can't reccomend highly enough. Well definitely be back !

This cafe used to be a favourite of mine for lunch with friends. Today it was a total disappointment. The menu offerings were poor. The burgers we ordered were described as being in brioche bread. They were in common white bread burger buns. My prawn sandwich with crisps was in very thick white bread, no butter and far too much corse ground black pepper in the shrimps masquerading as prawns. The crisps were actually tortilla chips which I dislike. I was not offered the choice to have or not have butter. I am careful how much bread I eat and could not eat this thick bread. The burgers my husband and friend had were also over seasoned with black pepper. Sorry we will not be lunching there again. Everything looked over cooked. Even the scones looked overcooked and unappetising. The lady taking orders looked so miserable, was not at all friendly. She dumped cutlery and glass on the counter. I was only given a fork to eat the salad on my plate. It was very expensive with my sandwich priced at £9.50. The burgers @ £14.50 each. Lunch for two with a coffee and Coke drink was over £35. No reduction offered when the staff were made aware of how awful it was.
