  “Visited the Waterman for Sunday lunch, and it was the perfect spot. Super quiet and chill, with a nice outdoor seating area. The service was friendly and the food was excellent - the roast was a huge plate of food and all good quality and delicious. A perfect locals experience.”

  “My favourite pub in Cambridge. Always greeted with a smile and excellent service. The drink selection has a great variety and I always enjoy coming back to try the seasonal updates to their food menu. Currently loving the new fish pie. The place always has a great atmosphere for sports and as a local it’s both the ideal place to catch the game with my mates and enjoy a Sunday roast with the family. Notcied today their garden space just got some new plants and furniture which has made this place an even better place to soak up the sun with a pint. Highly recommend.”

  “Overall, our stay at the Waterman was really disappointing. I booked 3 rooms for a girls weekend, 2 of the rooms cost the same and room number 1 was more expensive. Disappointingly we were allocated Room 5, which was the worse room of the three. It was smaller and extremely dark with very little natural light. The room was also very noisy as it was at the front of the pub, facing a busy road. There was no air conditioning, so we had to keep the windows open, which made it difficult to get any sleep. Room 5’s door lock was very temperamental and frustrating to use, often taking several attempts to lock the door when we went out. The shower also leaked from the top of the shower head, resulting in poor water pressure. The décor everywhere is very tired and in desperate need of refurbishment. On departure, no one asked how our stay had been or whether everything was satisfactory. Considering the price, we expected a much better experience. We were glad we were only staying for one night! Overall, a very disappointing stay that did not offer good value for money.”

  “Went to watch the World Cup final with friends at the Waterman. It was a Sunday and they were still serving roasts at 7pm. Great food, great venue for watching the match, friendly service and a good atmosphere. We all had a great time.”

  “Pub fun!. Nice little spot very central to the centre. Made even more better as it's directly above a pub! Me and my mate got to see lost in the city and enjoyed an evening meal before the football which was ideal for us. The burger was brilliant and the pub had loads of other sports fans, making for a really good atmosphere. The room was nice and clean with a comfy set of twin beds”
