The owners of the pub are very friendly couple,and fantastic Customer service all the bar staff are super friendly and will cater for most of everyone’s needs. Courtyard is cosy and good to interact with other members of the pub. Food is top draw and beats a lot of pubs for taste And presentation Food and beers are a little pricey, but like everyone knows you pay for what you get Ideal for dates, Out with friends, or just with the family,Five. Stars all the way.👌

I had a great dinner evening out at the Punter during my last academic visit to Cambridge University. Loved their smoked aubergine.

Service good Atmosphere fantastic But food needed a bit of a kick. Had fish and chips, pork ribs and aubergine tahini but they were all missing something. Perhaps they are trying healthy meals with less fat, sugar and salt. Pork ribs were better than the other two, fish batter wasn't crispy which was sad but the fish itself was tasty. Aubergine tasted blend, again it was sad because it looked great. Their potatoes were really good though. I think they use good & fresh ingredients.

A lovely lunch with friends. Friendly & welcoming staff and a very good 'gastro pub' menu that left us all very full (3 starters and two mains between three of us). The Barn is very nicely decorated!

I dined twice in the Punter recently. The food is very good. It tends to get very noisy in the evening if you sit inside because of the acoustics - also reserve a place as it is popular. It's not too great with kids as it gets a bit claustrophobic with a lot of interesting objects around the walls that they are not allowed to touch and no alternative entertainment. In an adult-only setup it is very cosy, very nice atmosphere and decoration.

One of our best meals in Cambridge by far! Cute little pub and gluten free options labeled on the menu which I always appreciate. I had the lamb steak with veg and garlic potatoes and it was so delicious. Hubby had steak tagliata and it was cooked to perfection! Will definitely be back. Take note that the dinner starts at 5pm. Maybe weekends good is served all day, not sure
