Came here for lunch on a Friday. We tried coming for dinner earlier in the week but the restaurant was closed even though we had made an online reservation, so I would advice to call ahead to check!
Lovely place with a view of the river. Food was also good! We had the grilled goats cheese to start, the pan fried coley and the pork belly for mains. As we had to rush to catch a train we didn’t have time for dessert sadly.
The food was simple but enjoyable fare, and the service was impeccable. Would recommend!
My boyfriend and I had a business lunch here today. The food is delicious(both of us love the soup so much!)and atmosphere is great. Not to mention the server is so polite, friendly and caring. It’s a perfect choice to have a meal here beside the river after visiting the campus.
party of four. booked two days before. polite and helpful. food excellent meal and drinks; with tip around £80. would recommend . does not look children friendly but would cope. limited menu but we all found something that we liked and it was all well presented and cooked well. great view over river and Silver bridge.
Great business lunch today. Very relaxing atmosphere and great food. Highly recommend the salmon and beetroot salad.
Always one of my favourites, a little hidden gem in Cambridge. I have been for anniversaries, birthday, as well as end of school year dinner with colleagues. The service can be a little slow but the view is amazing, especially in the summer. The prices are reasonable and I really like the tranquility of the place. <3
My family and I had a fabulous meal at the Riverside yesterday. The food served was delicious, and the homemade cheesecake was to die for! We were delighted to find out there was easy wheelchair access and use of the left, which made things extremely effortless for my mother. Our thanks to the staff who kept us entertained - we will be returning very soon!!
We went looking for this place, having read previous reviews, and it is slightly off the beaten track. It very close to the river and a Hilton Garden Inn, you could be put off by the building it is a 1960/70s concrete building resembling an office block. We certainly were not sure we were in the right place when we entered and went upstairs
The restaurant on the first floor gives some amazing views of the river and fields and you can watch life go by. Service is good, unobtrusive with some good food to match. Being part of Cambridge University and being used by the university for functions it is best to book so that you know it is open. The only downside is because of the university connection they do not have any background music and lunch can be a bit sterile - but it gives you all the reasons to concentrate on the food, which is good.
Highly enjoyable quiet and good views, in as we found out a listed building. A very good option for lunch
A hidden gem! Soup, pate, pork, chocolate brownie, all delicious, house rose very nice too! Great views of the river, service friendly and attentive. Highly recommended!!!
An excellent choice of meals for all of us, and good size portions. Friendly & helpful staff too. Pleasant view from windows. Good value for money and a great experience.
This is not casual dining but the atmosphere is still very relaxed. Fabulous food and service, very reasonable prices and lovely large windows overlooking the Cam. Just a shame for them that it isn't busier.
