 Verified IF I WERE TO RECOMMEND A PUB IN CAMBRIDGE, IT IS HERE
Genuinley my favourite pub in Cambridge. The food is some of the best in the area (halloumi), the couple who run it are unbelievable, hardworking and make it feel like you’re at their home. 10/10

 Verified Gluten free fish & chips
I went for dinner after a friend mentioned they offered gluten free fish & chips, which I've been missing a lot since being diagnosed with coeliac disease. It was delicious and you wouldn't know it's GF unless told. Really friendly staff and good service. I won't be missing fish & chips anymore :)

 Verified Great food. Wonderful staff. Warm atmosphere.
We took a trip to Cambridge over the Bank Holiday Weekend and luckily for us this bar was having an event. There were so many craft beers and ciders to try, I couldn't pick just one but they serve a tasting paddle of 3, 1/3 pints so you can try a few at a time. The food is super tasty. I recommend the fish and chips. The bar staff were knowledgeable and really friendly, especially Paul. We went back there each night of our 3 night stay and enjoyed each time. We will definitely be back. Thank you.

 Verified Gourmet fish and chips
Excellent gourmet fish and chips and a reasonable beer selection. (They do other stuff, but I keep veering off and having the fish and chips again because it’s just so good).

 Verified Incredible staff and food.
Incredible fish and chips with the most accommodating staff. They even did a little run to the local for some oat milk. Outdoor and indoor seating options were great! Highly recommended making this a stop on any gastro-pub checklist
