Revitalised and reopened in October 2014, The Rupert Brooke is now a stylish pub and restaurant to be found in the pretty Cambridgeshire village of Grantchester, nestled alongside the river Cam, just a couple of miles from the centre of Cambridge. Grantchester is a popular haunt for students and tourists of the university city as they can walk along the "Grantchester Grind", the river path that runs from Cambridge alongside the Grantchester meadows or even arrive by punt. The pub is named after the English poet known for his idealistic war sonnets, who at one time lived at the Old Vicarage and immortalised the residence in a poem written in 1912 in Berlin.

Went with friends. Our Chicken Milanese was delicious. Our men had the pork tenderloin which was delicious but very small portions for them. We found the chairs uncomfortable after the first hour. Our starter of mackerel pate was also delicious. Very nice, pleasant, smiley staff.

Several things were a little over salted and the beans were a shade too al dente.

When we arrived we were greeted and led to our table. After our order was taken and our starters arrived we were not checked on by any staff members. No one asked if our meal was ok and we were not offered more drinks. We ordered a dessert and a coffee and the coffee never arrived until we asked for the bill, by which time we didn’t want it as we were ready to leave! Food however was very nice and cooked perfectly

This is such a beautiful pub with extremely friendly and efficient service. The exterior lends itself to enjoying a lovely cocktail in very pretty surroundings… cows at the back peering through the cow parsley and thatched cottages. A great menu to chose from. We had the Chicken Caesar salad and a Prawn and Crayfish tien, both beautifully refreshing followed by succulent soft pork in an apple sauce and desserts that had a slight twist to the usual format… chocolate tart and a bakewell tart. Another fantastic find within the wonderful Chestnut Group. Thank you for such a lovely evening. We will definitely return.

Excellent food and service here. The meal was delicious. I had two non-alcoholic cocktails at £10 each (same price as alcoholic) which I thought was unreasonably steep. But otherwise, a great evening.

Overall the experience was not what we expected. Burgers were served without buns (none delivered) and our request for bread instead was declined. The portions of soup were small for the cost. We had to find our own forks for dessert. Tea was served in teapots without lids (a health and safety hazard) as apparently “the lids get broken often”! Have eaten well at a partner pub in the group and enjoyed the experience, we felt that the overall delivery was poor with limited attention to detail.

First time visitor for many years and was not disappointed. Lovely Sunday roast for my Son's birthday. Timing was perfect for us, as a little quieter @ 4.00pm and speed of service was excellent.
