   We were seated and given menus and when we had chosen the server then told us what was not available. I wasn’t a fan of open salt on the table that customers had to dip fingers in. Despite that, the food that was available was very good.

   Good selection of beers. Food is ok but a bit underwhelming. We had the bean and ribollitta soup which was a bit bland. The toasted bread underneath was over charred as was the skin on the coley. There was very little truffle detectable in the sauce. Reasonable prices but other places do better food if that us your main concern. The staff were helpful.

   Compared to previous visits the food was disappointing, overpriced and the service was miserable. We had fish and chips and received oven chips from the freezer. The fish was greasy.

   Sunday roast is absolutely delicious and great value for money. We got 2 courses for £30. Staff were so attentive and friendly. Really nice atmosphere. Would highly recommend and I will definitely be back.

   Very nice meal with great service but a bit pricey. I did like the music :-)

   Disappointing. Food not as good as it used to be. Less busy, less buzz than before.

   Good food and table service accompanied a nice range of cask and keg beers. A great place to take friends and family. This is one of The gems of Cambridge city and I’m glad I found it !!

    The food was mostly fairly good, but not brilliant, and maybe not good value for the price. We had croquettas and prawn/calamari as a starter. The croquettas were fine, and served with a lovely pickle and red pepper hummus. The “crispy prawn and calamari” had one prawn and the rest was calamari, but were well made and presented with a nice dip. My chicken schnitzel was nice, if maybe a little under-seasoned and served with half a gem lettuce draped in what was billed as Caesar salad sauce, but I could hardly taste any garlic, mustard, or anchovy. It was just creamy and a bit sickly. However, the most unpleasant part was my wife’s spicy chicken thigh kebab, which had been marinated in far too much salt and was almost inedible. The service was good and the beer was well-kept.
