Went for our anniversary lunch it was amazing I can’t find the right words it is the best restraint we have eaten in in such a long time. The food was fantastic but the service was the best we could not fault anything highly recommend. We are making this our go too restaurant. We can not thank you enough for the service see you soon Food & drinks: The best food we have had in such a long time COVID have had such an effect on the quality and service in all our old restaurants we have been so disappointed so many times that we rarely go out to dinner. We have a new go to restaurant for the highest quality food and service

Amazing food with the best choice of wines. The cottage is ideal for anyone staying over with dogs. We’ll be back!

Delicious food and grrat atmosphere. Gael was a pleasure as the host, and so was his team! The "Chocolat au crème" was just amazing!!!

Friendly restaurant with a stunning chef and great food. During warmer months the cafe/car/restaurant courtyard has a great feel to relax in

What a serendipitous evening! Our Australian family of five wandered in from the street looking for our room after a long day in the car and Gael and his crew couldn't have been more welcoming. The accommodation was beautifully appointed and all of us were very happy (a hard task to achieve when travelling with young adults). Decided to keep it simple and eat in at the on-site local downstairs - Pear & Olive - with no expectations at all. I can say that in our three week trip around the UK we enjoyed the best food, with the best hosts, with the best ambience, with the best wine we had experienced the entire trip. Gael and his crew were exceptional hosts and we greatly appreciated their warmth and generous nature. Gael even created a new dish for us on the spot after a left field request from one of our group. And then we went upstairs to the best accommodation for the night! An experience we will not forget! Highly highly recommended.

We were on the way back from Cambridge (rural route), and looking for somewhere to stop for lunch. Sign on the main road Pear & Olive Gastro Pub - let’s give it a go. Wow! Lovely garden, excellent cider on tap. Good choices on the lunch …

Came here for the 4 course menu they do on Thursdays and wow! Faultless food, friendly staff and very reasonably priced. I don't know how the michelin guide have missed this gem! The first course with tuna, avocado and kafir lime was possibly the highlight but the beautifully soft and rich chocolate tort was just as delightful. And to top it all we stayed the night in the cottage, where they put just as much attention to detail as they do in the restaurant, small touches like free cakes and port make the stay perfect! Great job chefs and the rest of the team, can't wait to come back! Only problem was it was over too soon!

Excellent service from everyone here especially Charlie who couldn't be more helpful. The food was amazing compliments to the Chef. ||The suite over the Scratch Kitchen is immaculate and really spacious, every detail us thought through down to the bottles of drinks, cakes and breakfast.||Would highly recommend a visit.

You get fine food from a chef whose passion is creating dishes. Great skills, variety and flavour combinations. Puts most restaurants to shame.....

This is our favourite place to eat in and around Cambridge. Chef Gael's food never disappoints and the decor and outdoor space are stunning! We make the commute from town as often as possible and have introduced many friends to it as well, some of whom now travel up from London with the specific request of dining there. Highly recommend!
