| Traditional pub that nowadays must make most of its money from the adjacent restaurant. There's a very small bar area and a plush adjacent lounge for diners that you can sit in...but I have seen drinkers getting chased out of the lounge by the staff to make space at busy times. In the centre of a posh Cambridge-suburb village, so always a few locals proping up the bar. 2 or 3 ales from a pretty standard range...e.g. GK IPA, London Pride, Adnams. Acceptable nick but nothing outstanding, average prices for the area. Neither friendly nor unfriendly atmosphere. In short: worth a pint if walking by but not a drinkers' pub. That's a shame because there are no other decent pubs in the area so if they made more of an effort to accomodate drinkers they'd definitely get more trade. JonRambo - 28 Apr 2011 15:19 |
| Very traditional pub, plush interior, good ales, excellent food both in the bar and the restaurant (but you must book). Not open all day. thelonious - 20 Feb 2005 13:17 |
