The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Bourn South Cambridgeshire East of England

Absolutely fantastic find of a cafe just outside Cambridge, quality service and food in a relaxing atmosphere, perfect for couples, family and friends. You can sit outside to eat and drink if you want to take your 4 legged friends or cyclists are more than welcome for a bit of coffee and cake on their cycling route. Great team who serve and welcome you at the stove. A particular mention to Natalia who served me, I think she is from Ukraine, very polite, helpful and professional service.. Thankyou for a lovely lunch, I will definitely be back soon.

I’ve previously raved about this small coffee shop cum cafe but, disappointingly, I didn’t enjoy the food on our recent visit. We were a family group of five, three of whom had the tuna ciabatta melt which, they said, was very good. However, my grandson’s squash and spinach soup lacked any taste of squash (I tasted the soup) and, actually, with its very dark green colour, I didn’t think the soup looked appealing either. Spinach has such a strong taste and, if it’s being used alongside other vegetables in soup-making, the amount needs to be proportionate to the other ingredients. Unfortunately, the spinach was overpowering and totally drowned out any flavour from the squash. I ordered a home-baked, warm asparagus, spinach, tomato and cheese tart which I can only describe as dire. The pastry was soggy, so I only ate the middle of the tart and left the pastry, whilst the accompanying salad was tiny and boring beyond belief, with just a few leaves, a couple of pieces of tomato and a few bits of cucumber. The salad actually resembled nothing more than a garnish, with a bit of dressing on top, and, at £12, the meal was poor quality and even poorer value for money. The lattes were excellent and my son-in-law enjoyed his Terry’s orange flavoured hot chocolate but there wasn’t a great choice of cakes to go with our drinks so none of us bothered. In terms of the food, there doesn’t appear to be an actual kitchen, just a section within the cafe where a member of staff was preparing the orders. I’d never previously noticed before that there wasn’t a kitchen here so not sure if this is a change. However, only having a microwave and no oven would explain why I had a tart with soggy pastry! Regrettably, I can’t even say that the staff were brilliant. We were mainly served by one staff member who I can only describe as surly looking, leading me to want to repeat a childhood phrase my mum used to say when I was being grumpy, ‘if you smile, your face will crack!’. A second member of staff, though, was so different and really nice. I’d have been happy to have given some honest feedback at the time but, unfortunately, nobody asked if we’d enjoyed our meal. I can say, now though, that my meal was extremely poor and, with a bill of £65 for our group, it wasn’t cheap. Finishing on a positive note, the toilets were clean.

First time here in several years, and not a lot has changed. It's a family pub and very noisy had a job hearing each other we first looked at sitting in the quarter area but the exterior was continually being left open and it aas very cold. Staff at the bar very were friendly and welcoming. We ordered 2 mixed grills and a gammon steak. Basically the food was OK except for the steak with the mixed grills we were asked how we wanted them done, which was both medium but both were over cooked and they couldn't be eaten the rest were fine. Don't know if we would go back.

Great service and nice food. We would recommend to our friends. We would definitely go there again. The pub is in a lovely village 👍

I much prefer the cafe at the St Ives Morrisons, which appears to have more staff. So tables are cleared and cleaned more quickly etc. They also offer free coffee refills!!
