The haddock is always my go-to. It&#39;s so fresh and flaky, just the way I like it. They really let the quality of the fish shine through. A lovely, simple dish that feels good to eat.

The vegan fry-up is a solid choice for brunch with friends. Not greasy at all, which is a win. Staff were really lovely and helped us sort out a table for our group. A nice spot for a catch-up.

Been coming here for years. The mix platter for three is my go-to. Always consistent, lets you try a bit of everything they do well. Never had a bad one.

So happy they&#39;re back open! The food is still spot on, and it&#39;s just the right vibe for catching up with friends. A proper local spot.

Bringing your own wine was a nice touch for a casual evening. We had a bottle we&#39;d been saving, and it just made the whole meal feel more relaxed. The staff didn&#39;t mind at all.

The pizza base had a proper crunch, not soggy at all. Toppings were generous, especially the pepperoni. Just a bit too salty for my taste, but still a solid pie.

Chicken Madras was spot on. Got it for a quick lunch, came out fast. Good portion, not too spicy. Lamb Vindaloo next time maybe. Solid for a quick bite.

Stopped by for a drink and ended up staying for dinner. The garden out back is so chilled, just what you need on a warm evening. Parking wasn&#39;t an issue either, found a spot close by.

The Kerala crab was lovely, and I appreciate the good vegetarian options. But the seats were a bit too firm for my liking, made the long dinner less comfortable than it could have been.

DJ was our waiter, really friendly and attentive. Always checks in without being overbearing. Makes you feel like a regular even if you&#39;re not. Good, solid service.

Popped in last night, the live singer was a lovely surprise. Food was solid, and they&rsquo;re dog-friendly which is great. The wine list had some interesting local options, went with a glass of red that paired nicely with the steak. A good spot for a relaxed evening.

The pizza was piping hot, just out of the oven. Plenty of toppings on every slice, really generous. A nice step up from the bigger chain places.

Hidden gem in Cambridge. Portions are generous for the price. The staff really know their stuff. Had the lamb shank, and the chef&#39;s recommendation for a full-bodied red to go with it was spot on. Made a good meal even better.

Tried the sweet potato fries, definitely worth the extra quid. Portions are generous, salad was fresh. Staff were friendly, no complaints. Solid spot for a quick bite.

The rhubarb cake was super fresh, and the cappuccino was a nice surprise &ndash; really smooth.

Great spot for a quick lunch. The chicken katsu curry came out fast and hit the spot. The place is bigger than it looks from the outside, which is handy when you&#39;re in a rush. Fish tank&#39;s a nice touch.

Been coming here for years. The pistachio kulfi and mango pickle are always spot on. It&#39;s that consistent finish that keeps me coming back.

The pastries are lovely and the coffee is very good. A nice spot to stop while exploring Cambridge.

Been coming here for years. The outside seating is perfect for a quiet pint after work, always seems to have a spot free even on sunny days. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

The pies are consistently decent, with a nice flavour and texture. The mash is pretty good too, and the liquor has a natural colour. A solid choice for a simple, filling meal.

Food was great and fairly quick, staff were friendly and efficient. Right beside the river, ideal for walking the dog before our meal and he was made welcome by the staff as well.

Been coming here for years. The service is always spot on, even when it&#39;s packed. They remember your name, know what you like. That&#39;s rare these days. Sure, you might wait a bit for a table on a Friday, but it&#39;s worth it for that consistency.

Fresh fish and chips, easily the best around. The batter was light, not greasy. They have a decent house white that cuts through it nicely. A bit pricey for what it is, but you get what you pay for.

Food was great, the pies were incredible and Caius (our server) was very attentive throughout.We were made to feel very welcome and will definitely come back again.

Lovely little neighbourhood spot. We popped in for a casual dinner, and the vibe was just right - warm and inviting without feeling fussy. My friend&#39;s pasta was a bit lukewarm, but mine was spot on. Good for a relaxed catch-up.

Been coming here for years, and the fish curry never disappoints. It&#39;s always that perfect balance of spice and coconut, just like I remember from my last visit. The portion&#39;s still decent for this kind of place. That&#39;s why I keep coming back.

Emma and Roland were really attentive. They remembered how I liked my coffee and even offered a refill before I asked. That kind of service is nice.
