The best restaurants serving British food in Cambridge East of England

Visited for a day out and fancied a little snack before heading home when we stumbled upon the hallouman! Great customer service, friendly, exceptionally clean. A decent amount of halloumi for a very reasonable price. Incredibly delicious, definitely recommend!

We came to The Swoop for a cocktail masterclass. Fiona was amazing, a real laugh and her cocktails were so good. You could tell she had a real passion for what she did and we learnt so much as well as had a good time. Miles was also superb and did some more cocktails for us after. The fact everything was locally sourced was even better. I ended up buying everything to make one of Fiona's signature creations. We'll definitely be back and I highly recommend a class at The Swoop, or if you want some local alcohol as a gift or for yourself, you must check the shop out

Vanderlyle is a remarkable restaurant that truly excels in its approach to fine dining, focusing on regional ingredients sourced directly from local farmers. This commitment not only enhances the flavor of each dish but also supports sustainability, a core value of the establishment. The creative vegetarian tasting menu showcases seasonal produce, fulfilling all essential criteria for a Michelin recommendation. In comparison, Cookies Cream in Berlin offers a delightful vegetarian experience but lacks Vanderlyle's unique emphasis on local sourcing and sustainability. Vanderlyle's innovative dishes and attentive service make it a standout choice for any food enthusiast.

Pequeño restaurante con excelente comida. Obviamente muy popular. ¿Qué no te gusta? Gracias por una comida memorable.

Canadian Style Didn't expect 'Poutine' means meat and chips in gravy at all. We always thought it charges extra because it's a ciabatta sandwich with chips as a side. I should have read the reviews before coming, my bad. The sandwich is okay. At least it's a hot sandwich. But the pork cracking was a bit too hard for teeth. I strongly suggest you biting it really slow, you know, Canadians' way. The Poutine is very salty. The chips became very soggy because of the salty gravy. We failed to finish the dish. Not sure about this Canadian style. But the service was good. Clean environment. Price was reasonable in Cambridge town centre.

Extremely helpful team - we held a birthday lunch here and they were very responsive, attentive and accommodating. Food was delicious and enjoyed by all. Thank you very much!

The main chamber and debate room were beautiful, I went to an astronomy lecture here. The architecture and design and decorating of the place was beautiful with all original portraits and stuff on display, the library was also amazing! Only thing is the staff had no idea what they were doing...

We went to have lunch to get gluten free pizzas, as advertised in their menu. However, they had ran out of the base pizzas. We found that very disappointing, as we couldn't enjoy the lunch we had booked for. I think this type of mistake is so easily fixable, just stock enough gluten free pizza bases, that a review was necessary so that this doesn't happen again in the future. Please, stock properly for your celiac clients. Thank you. EDIT: After returning to the premises we had a wonderful lunch. Thank you for inviting us to return.

Please avoid this place.The people I'm the cafe are rude, aggressive. I also saw one of them picking his nose.

Worst vegetarian dining experience I have had in the UK. I said to the server clearly that we wanted the small plates as starters, then he said all together right and then tutted when I said I asked for them as starters. Due to the poor attitude of the server I then decided against ordering sides with my main, and only ordered tap water when I was going to have a beer. The Garlic Bread was actually a raw pizza base with a smearing of grease and tasteless seasoning. The bang bang broccoli was more like poop poo broccoli it did not look very well presented, not very appetising and tasted inedible. The 'Sea bass' was tasteless and cold on top of hard undercooked raw potato and my friends pizza had a raw base. We felt intimidated by the staff who were great at looking at us but poor In their communication or customer service

Surrounded by a plethora of fast food junk establishments stands an icon of hope and joy, the Market House. Service and cooking is to an excellent standard; Both dishes I had were showcasing fresh, high-quality ingredients and thoughtful flavour combinations. The Pinney's Hot Smoked Scottish Salmon was a standout. The salmon itself was perfectly smoked, with a delicate balance of smoky flavour and moist texture. The smoked buttermilk cream added a luxurious richness that complemented the salmon beautifully, while the cauliflower provided a subtle earthiness and textural contrast. The herbed cracker added a satisfying crunch and a burst of fresh herbs. The main course ; Whole Baked Lemon Sole was another winner. The sole was cooked to perfection, with flaky, tender flesh and a delicate lemony flavor. The celeriac fondant was a revelation, offering a creamy, melt-in-your-mouth texture and a subtle sweetness that paired perfectly with the fish. The roasted fennel added a touch of anise flavor and a satisfying bite, while the kosho pear provided a unique and exciting twist with its spicy, fruity notes. The dish was also gluten-free, which is a bonus for those with dietary restrictions Overall, both dishes were expertly prepared and presented, demonstrating a clear passion for quality ingredients and culinary creativity. For food lovers hope shines eternal at the Market House

Intolerant landlord ruining a quaint village pub Disgusted to see a money man ruin peoples village hub. People will not frequent the place if this man is seen through the window. RIP the chesnuts Suxh a sad shame

This was an amazing find one summer and now I always try them out whenever I find them. There are a fantastic variety of flavours - my favorite is the black pudding one - all crispy coating and lovely soft egg,,,,mmmm

We were looking for an overnight near Cambridge and came across the Blackhorse in Swaffham. We also had diner that was fresh fish and well cooked.

Had chicken burger, was overpriced and over fried. Fries weren't that special either. Service and atmosphere was good tho, but for 15 pounds this was not worth half of it.
