Called in there on recent Saturday lunchtime. The house brew was nice and reasonably priced, there were alternatives such as Woodfordes Wherry.
Lady behind the bar friendly.

Usual problem about no real space for drinkers who are not eating. As it had rained the outside seats were not really an option. Fortunately the pub was not too crowded and all the tables had just a candle - not a candle and place settings as in the past which does rather put you in your place.

Very friendly and hospitable staff in this quaint village pub in a pleasant village. May be a little cramped inside with the tables etc but still has a pub feel. There's a tabled patio kind of area out front where tobacco fiends can indulge and the horsey fraternity can tie up their steeds. The Woddfordes Wherry was pretty much on form and the house beer on offer (a very pale 4.1% pale ale) was a very drinkable pint. Occasional number 10 buses from Cambridge and Newmarket stop across the green.

Beautiful pub and garden in a beautiful village location.
Normally have two home-made ales (reasonably priced) and a couple of guest ales (Adnams etc).
On busy days most of the tables laid for food, which is over-priced in my opinion. The atmosphere thus becomes more of a restaurant than a pub (shame).

Tried the micro beer but it was undrinkable maybe it was my fault I dont know.. other beers were much better tasting although nothing special.Mostly a restaurant serving fresh fish and customers sitting in the bar gives little room for us drinkers.I usually sit in the garden outside.

A particularly attractive pub in a beautiful village, fortunately with outside seating as the interior is set for diners. The beers were pretty undistinguished in range, the village Micro brewery beer (not attached to the pub) was not on although there was a spare pump.
I should think that wet Sunday lunchtimes are manic, but very pleasant on our visit.
