    Great food and service. Highly recommended. Watch for the baked Camembert starter - big enough for 2 to share. Delicious!

    Good food conveniently located near both the Museum and Bots. Sunday roasts are a must with good size portions, that could only be improved by adding in some GF options for yorkies etc.

    Meal with my sons visiting Cambridge. The venue was recommended. We were welcomed with a big smile and “Hello”. Couple of pints, tasty food. Good menu options. Everything was well cooked and nicely presented. Would definitely recommend and go back.
