Super little pub. Excellent real ales now looked after by Peterborough Beer Festival cellarman. Pub has just received a Gold Award for beer quality and has now become Cambridgeshire pub of the year. Bus number Citi 1 from bus station.

I popped in hear one Saturday recently on hearing that new management have taken it over and I can say I was very impressed with the improvement. The Real Ales, my favourite tipple, were all in excellent condition. Keep up the good work. Is also a very historical pub too with 2 rooms and a drinking corridor, quite rare for the south!

Late review from October when we stayed a couple of nights at Ferry Meadows so we could visit the real ale pubs and what a find this one was. Lovely atmosphere and interesting decor. Ehjoyed our Pot Belly and Jennings ales here.

Ah ! The Hand and Heart. Back street gem, 1930's classic boozer - roll out the platitudes and they're all justified.

Always a cracking pint, a friendly welcome, and someone to strike up conversation with.

Unique in Peterborough, and there can't be many like this left - the Hand is on CAMRA's national inventory.
