"Great food and lovely staff. Awful family with lots of kids aged around 8-10 that ran around the restaurant, past our table almost constantly playing chase, somewhat spoiled the visit. We had to change tables to avoid them and the shrieking was really dreadful. After moving tables to a different area we really enjoyed it. The food was amazing and the strawberry soufflé was to die for. It would have been nice if the manager had intervened and had a word with the parents as their behaviour was completely unacceptable. I don’t like complaining and it made me rather uncomfortable having to do so. Other customers were clearly bothered by them and they nearly knocked another elderly gentleman over. On the plus side, it’s a beautiful building and the staff are so lovely. The food is fab and I would recommend it to everyone"

We are very lucky to have a pub so close to us that consistently delivers delicious food. We love not just the food, but the atmosphere and especially like the fact the menu changes (and every time it is very tasty). We look forward to visiting again!

In Balsham to look at some family history and came in for lunch. Wonderful food. Fish and chips was big and crunchy, duck with hazelnuts, apricots and broccoli was so flavorful and the Black Bull burgers were so tasty with amazing sauces and bun. Will have to come back in the future and try new things and some deserts! Service: 5 Location: 5

Excellent food and friendly staff..Menu just a bit different from the normal and really outstanding quality .. We stayed overnight and the rooms were very good ,nice decor ,clean and warm!. Would definitely stay again and strongly recommend.. Originally visiting the vineyard nearby which closed after we had booked here but it’s also very close to Duxford so visited there instead..

While there were some small disappointments, I decided to communicate them directly with the hotel rather than mentioning them here. I hope they consider making the necessary changes. The room and bed were comfortable. One suggestion for improvement would be to expand the menu to include a wider selection of meat and fish options, rather than just focusing on beef. Additionally, having an external courtesy light for safety, particularly during icy conditions, would be advantageous.

My family went to this restaurant for lunch to celebrate the head of our family's birthday. The restaurant was pleasant and clean, but we were disappointed by the high prices. We felt that paying £32 for a steak that was served in strips with just a few chips and minimal accompaniments was unreasonable. The fish was also dry and the chocolate roulade was sliced too thin. On top of that, we had to wait a long time for just three hot drinks. Overall, our experience was very disappointing and we do not intend to dine there again.
