Atmosphere, friendliness, service, food, wine all get a 5/5 from us. Absolutely delicious vegan menu. I would highly recommend a visit. They new exactly what drinks were vegan too, so we had confidence in everything we had, and were able to relax and enjoy.
Had a wonderful celebration meal at The Mermaid yesterday. Such a hidden treasure. The food is innovative and will blow your mind, not to mention your taste buds. Staff are lovely, nothing is too much trouble and the Chef even came to see us, to ask us if we enjoyed our meal. So worth a visit
Good ambience, friendliness, excellent service, food, wine and drinks all get a 5/5 from me Absolutely delicious and different menu. I would highly recommend a visit. They new exactly what drinks were vegan and liked too, so we were able to relax and enjoy, again it was fabulous and love to be there again and again,
I have to be honest, the meal was absolutely fabulous. We both had soft shell crab 🦀 and the chateaubriand which was to die for. I then finished off with a soufflé pudding. Oh yum. The service and atmosphere were spot on. I really look forward to going again.
My hubby & I had the most amazing roast beef dinner best ever! Highly recommend The Mermaid lovely staff quaint pub/restaurant lovely friendly atmosphere We shall be back!! 😬
Amazing food the flavours are just wonderful . Presentation of the food is lovely, for me it's a treat when the food is brought to the table I can't wait to tuck in but at the same time i don't want to spoil the plate .
Fantastic food and a lovely atmosphere. Another amazing village party, which makes us feel lucky to live in such a great place, with an outstanding pub. Thank you for hosting us guys! There are a few sore heads this morning �
Just had Sunday lunch here. Fantastic and imaginative food, great atmosphere and friendly staff. Perfect! Even the intermittent power cuts in the village couldn't dampen the experience.
I opted for dishes from the Sunday set lunch menu: Crab, venison roast and cheesecake. These might sound a bit boring but, trust me, the dishes are far from it. Read the full descriptions on the menus to realise that there are often intriguing twists on the traditional. No wonder this pub/restaurant is slated to be on course for Michelin stardom!
Some might think £29 per head expensive for Sunday lunch but in my opinion it is an absolute bargain given the quality of what you get.
Fully deserves my 5 star rating and Michelin stars too. Well done!
Absolutely wonderful food, everything cooked to perfection and service was spot on. Can’t recommend highly enough
Really worth the trip out from Bedford. I think we've just enjoyed one of the best roast we've ever eaten out. The food was outstanding. I think the depth of flavour and the imagination in the dishes were the key. Laid back dining and friendly my staff in a rustic, rural setting. What's not to like.
Great place to stay, lovely comfortable room & superior food. Friendly atmosphere & very helpful staff.
Excellent food and an amazing vegan menu which is quite rare to see. They even made sure we had vegan jelly sweets to finish our meal �. Highly recommended warm welcome a lovely find.
Had a wonderful lunchtime meal today , such a lovely atmosphere, decor and choices of meals were unique and delicious. Highly recommend and thank you for the lovely touch for my husbands birthday �.
What a wonderful meal! The service was excellent and the 6 course tasting menu was a delight! Thank you!
A truely lovely evening at The Mermaid. The food is delicious, delicate flavours and beautifully presented. It has become my favourite restaurant. I have a few food intolerances which I emailed the restaurant about. The chef totally amazed me by adapting the whole menu for me and printing off my own version. What fantastic service and how thoughtful.
If you want delicious, artistically presented food The Mermaid is the restaurant for you.
A lovely little country pub with a twist... Our first visit. Certainly won't be our last. Amazing menu, food very well cooked and innovative presentation. Very helpful well presented staff. The orange blossom tree dessert is definitely up there with my most favourite.
Great flavours and impeccable presentation, lovely service with very attentive warm and friendly people. From their own kitchens bread and butter they served for appetiser which was melting in mouth to the actual steak that was cooked just right and looked beautiful in plate. Just amazing food in a lovely cozy place.
Amazing food, great staff, quaint pub. Loved our first visit and cannot wait to come back.
this beautiful olde worldy pub has such a warm welcome. nothing is too much trouble. great food been twice now both times on my birthday and the chefs have made me a 'happy bitthday' dessert. thank you guys! thursday was curry night but the curries on offer were not what was advertised on the website although still as delicious. thanks again....
A fabulous vegan taster menu he(art)fully prepared and served with a welcoming smile - the first of many visits.
Family meal for 8, excellent food great atmosphere and great service. Highly recommended.
Fantastic menu choice and that includes vegetarian. Really inventive food and decor
Been here lots of times food always good hot and the pub is always clean great staff
Food was fabulous, amazing presentation , good portion size, really well presented especially the deserts. Very good customer service. Only fault... the table we had for six people was too small

Excellent food and friendly service - one of our favorite places for date nights and taking out-of-towns guests for an amazing meal.
We passed by today looking for a bar snack. I popped my head in and was greated by a stunningly dressed pub.....and waitresses! We had two childrem with us. You catered for them and us. The food was amazing (the micro salad was my favourite, a taste explosion). Every thought had been given down to the napkins shaped as boats and ship wreck themed crockery! ! I loved it!!!
Lovely midweek meet up with friends.
Great menu, not too expensive. The steak was really tasty and not expensive like many gastro pubs. The service was great, a lovely atmosphere.
Nice to see so many people out on a Wednesday night.
We will be back !
Lovely little pub/restaurant. We have been a regular at the sister pub in Perry for years.
The Mermaid has a great menu full of classics and the quality of ingredients is noticeable! Lots of fresh fish and meat. An intimate restaurant with friendly staff and cosy atmosphere. We will definitely return!
Went for an evening out and was highly impressed. Waitresses knowledgeable and friendly. Food excellent and way above 'pub grub'.
A busy restaurant is always a good sign and yet service was fast and efficient.
Well done The Mermaid. Recommended
Decent sandwiches (though I’d recommend you ask them specifically to make it with butter…) Decent beer. OK coffee. Decor feels a bit odd. I can imagine this was a wonderful local pub once but it feels a characterless now. Lovely staff and managers and locals were very friendly. Lots of suits and nice dresses, so I felt a bit underdressed. Entirely my fault for slobbing around in shorts and T-shirt! Overall, a nice village food-focused pub with a pleasant atmosphere.
Stopped by the pub before the Peterborough Cambridge EFL trophy tie. Really is exactly what I needed it to be for me; bunch of locals, on the piss, pregaming, and being rowdy. Hot dog and chips were delicious. Not a romantic spot but a genuine hometown hometeam pub. Excellent service!
Enjoyable Sunday roast at this olde-worlde pub just a few seconds off the A14. The rump beef was excellent - juicy and tasty. Good service from the waitresses too. Colourful and well-maintained hanging baskets outside.
Lovely village pub close enough to the A14 to be an easy lunch stop. We had chicken tikka masala and a burger and they were both well-cooked and delicious.
The service was friendly and welcoming.
If I lived nearby, this would be a perfect ’local’.
Actually, I love this building, you need to be aware of the low ceiling and the beams, but the atmosphere is just wonderful. The staff were lovely and the food was nice. It's in the heart of a very small village and has been closed for a while,so it was good news when it opened again after all the problems COVID caused. The management have a great reputation and this is another success.
We stopped off at this lovely village pub on our way home after a visit to London . We had crispy beef and Lemon Sole and they were both delicious and big portions .
The service was excellent, friendly and welcoming.
Went for Sunday lunch after it getting recommended, and it was very nice, and quick service, will definitely go back 👌
