Very good service, new menu starting that evening so we were told there might be a little longer to wait, but the food came relatively quickly and was delicious. Cosy atmosphere in the bar area, so a lovely dining experience.

We had a wonderful experience. The setting is beautiful, the staff were attentive without being too much, very professional and friendly. We had the afternoon tea which is really more of a delightful small dish tasting menu showcasing the chefs skills. The flavours burst out of every dish, they were incredible and although we expected it to be delicious it way surpassed our expectations. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the afternoon tea to anyone and we are already planning our return.

Lovely place to meet with friends. The food was excellent, the staff were friendly and attentive, and the surroundings were lovely. The restaurant has a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere with great vibes. Everything was spot on, and we couldn’t fault it. We’ll definitely be back and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for great food, excellent service and a lovely atmosphere!

Fabulous second time dining here for my husband's birthday. Perfect place for a very special treat. From the moment you arrive you are looked after and made to feel at home. They remembered a dietary requirement from a previous booking 4 years ago that I had forgotten to add into my booking. We didn't feel rushed and enjoyed a leisurely 3 hour lunch with nibbles, wine and the non-alcoholic pairing was fantastic. The only dish not quite to my liking was the dessert...I would have preferred something less savoury and more sweet. This felt like a cheese course and we had already added one as a supplement. Other than that the service was faultless. We have some goodies to enjoy today. We didn't need to eat again for the rest of the day (and couldn't if we tried)!

The food was very good and everyone in our party enjoyed their meal. The service was impeccable throughout. We happened to be the only guests in the restaurant at the time, so there wasn’t much of an atmosphere, but for us that actually worked perfectly. We were looking for a quiet late lunch/early dinner before heading out later, so the calm setting suited us very well. In terms of value, the prices were about what I would expect given the cost of eating out nowadays. Overall, we had a very enjoyable experience and would happily return.

We experienced fantastic and exceptionally welcoming service. The food was exemplary, featuring precise presentation and mouth-watering, delicious flavors. It stands out as one of the best dining experiences we have had in Cambridge. The immaculate cleanliness extends throughout the venue, perfectly matching the 5-star presentation of the entire establishment. We look forward to our next visit.

Such a lovely pub. Cannot fault the food and the service is friendly and professional. A personal favourite pub, the best by far in Grantchester and among the very best in Cambridge
