Would rate zero stars if I could… Booked afternoon tea for 5 people for a birthday treat; been three times before and never had a problem here but would never go back. Firstly, food arrived before the drinks which is a bad start. No oat milk given when asked. Asked for 2 pescatarian afternoon teas and were not given any salmon sandwiches, so had to ask for these to be provided; no jam or cream for scones, had to ask…again. The WOSRT PART is we asked for extra sandwiches and were NOT told that this would be £10 per plate! RIDICULOUS. £10 for three measly sandwiches and a small quiche. I have NEVER been for an afternoon tea where extra sandwiches are not complimentary no where on the menu or o...
Do not go here by any circumstance!! We had a table of over 8 and the kitchen was incapable of taking our order as it come so they had to take a pre order which meant all our food was served cold, was halfway through the main before the drink arrived. Absolutely dull atmosphere and call themselves a good restaurant which is a joke in itself. The staff was nice but the restaurant itself was diabolical. Also charged us 10£ each, including a new born baby, for a cake we brung on ourselves for “storage”, absolute joke. If you want to pay premium prices for cold, sub-par food with no care or passion put into the dishes then this is the place for you. If you want a better meal, go McDonalds.
The venue is grand and at the heart of the Cambridge city centre so does appear to offer a good footfall. The atmosphere felt chaotic and not enough waiting staff but managers who just walk around and do not much. The waiting staff got orders missing and/wrong and there was a long delay in getting the bread ordered when the break was delivered cold. The food was underwhelming meat was thoroughly dry and filling of the pie very watery. Side dishes were cold and flavourless. It was quite a disappointment overall. For the price and what it is, I’d not choose to book again.
Went here for a nice Saturday lunch but was poorly disappointed on the food and the high bill! My partner and I had a schnitzel that was no bigger than a burger patty and the sauce with it had star anise! Worst combination! It was awful tasting. Didn’t even come with fries, they were £6 extra! Such a rip off. You can see from the bill we were charged £7 for still water!! Was it made and bottled by the gods? This place use to be nice but the food quality and quantity has gone way down and the prices gone way up. I won’t be bringing clients here again!

Took my mother here for afternoon tea. The afternoon tea was nice, and it looked attractive. Service was fine. I just didn't feel particularly welcome in the venue, and it took ages to get our bill. When we asked to split the bill, I felt like this was a huge inconvenience for them. I certainly didn't feel it was worth the service charge which, while optional, feels awkward to have removed. I wouldn't go back for afternoon tea.
I don’t understand why everyone’s crying. This was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had. Super friendly service, great booze, great food, lovely vibe, toilets smell incredible, and a delightful book being read in the background. Our drinks could have come out and plates cleared faster but we had such a good time, it didn’t matter. Thanks gang, we’ll be back soon
We just randomly saw the building, and decided to have dinner at the restaurant, because the building looks beautiful from the outside. Amazingly, the foods were so delicious. Highly recommend to taste steaks, peach tart, and basque cheesecake at here. Bilal was the waiter gave us service, he’s nice, friendly, gave us recommendation for cocktail. 10/10 for service.
We enjoyed afternoon tea when we stayed in Cambridge. The serving platter was filled with delightful sweets and savories. Very relaxing and great service!

Arrogant rude bar staff. Lovely bar snacks and cocktails when we eventually received them
Breakfast excellent. Wide variety, counteracts bad British food stereotype.
