  “This is a gem in Cambridge. Cozy, atmospheric, with great service and any excellent selection to boot. Prices run the gamut from about 20 GBP all the way up to like 700 a bottle (I'm not factoring in single glass prices). We had a 3-cheese selection which came out as its own charcuterie board and it was excellent. Highly recommend the olives as the style served here is distinct. Will definitely be coming back.”

  “Lovely setting but it is noisy, hard to have a conversation. The menus on the website are not the same as in person, so if you are looking forward to something you've seen, worth double checking. There was only one pud option, more online. By 7pm they had run out of some small plate, and the *not so small plates were not even an option. By the time we came to pudding, that had also run out and we had already started our dessert wine!! Not the best experience.”

  “Delicious cheese and charcuterie sharing board, plus duck croquettes, beetroot and goats cheese salad and fried chicken thigh. Lovely older gentleman for a waiter and a perfect glass of champagne followed by a white rioja - if this place was in our home town, we'd be there every week.”

  “I am strongly disappointed by the wine they sale to me that I had just purchased today. I bought a wine that worth $38 on global market but was charged £170. ( £10 take away discount). I originally really like the wine they provided to me and all the things are great before this purchase. I strongly recommend when people are buying any take-away from this store. Please double check the price online and do not fully trust the information they provide to you.”

  “We had a lovely little window table, the fairy lights when it got dark were really sweet. Treasure welcomed me in while I waited for my friend (I arrived super early) - water was offered immediately Do recommend booking We had a cheese fondue, and some cashew nuts as well as multiple glasses of wine and probably the best Mimosa I have ever had. Treasure and her colleague were great, so great were booking again for June to celebrate a birthday Place was clean, small but comfy.”

  “Me and my husband stoped of in here as thought it looked like a nice place to stop of for a wine, don’t get me wrong the wine was lovely, the service however (Appalling) for the price took over 20 minutes for someone to ask us what drinks we would like, I went to the toilet which is located downstairs and it was all flooded when I walked in I slipped over, so once I got back upstairs I informed a member of staff and also told them that I had slipped, didn’t seem to acknowledge the fact of that or ask if I was okay! They just brushed it off and said they’ll get somebody on it! We then got the bill we asked if we could have The service charge taken off as wasn’t happy with are service and was told it’s not something we can take off!”

  “We spent a wonderful, convivial evening at The Wine Rooms. Elaine impressed us so much with her warm welcome and it was so interesting chatting to her about wine, how it is produced and the latest trends. All her staff were friendly and very efficient. We would unreservedly recommend The Wine Rooms for the relaxed, buzzy atmosphere, knowledgeable and friendly staff and DELICIOUS food!”

  “We had a lovely evening at the Wine rooms! The lady serving us was very knowledgeable and went above and beyond in making sure the wine fit our preferences perfectly. The food was also to die for! I highly recommend the charcuterie board and the beef croquettes.”

  “My honest review would be... I have been here before and found the food and service to be amazing! Thanks. I would always come again. I was back for a wine tasting, and the ticket included 'bar snacks' which was effectively a cheese plate. The cheeses were AMAZING and I totally forgot to ask what the blue cheese was - it was delicious. Please let me know if you can. That said a disproportionate amount of cheese was served compared to the cracker ratio. This is a frequent issue 'around town' and one I think has a fairly simple solution, and that is largely not lumping great HUNKS of cheese onto small crackers to make up for the cracker deficit - although I 100% agree the cheese should ALWAYS be the hero. I feel like the solution is - maybe just provide a few more crackers. And particularly I feel that the solution is that if diners say, ask, for more crackers that they are not presented them with the caveat that these are going to cost extra. It puts your diners off side, and for no obvious reason, when you could just provide a more appropriate cheese to cracker ratio in the first place. You gave a 10% discount on the bill anyway - so that's basically the crackers for free. You just end up putting people off side about your wonderful restaurant by making a big deal about some cheap crackers. I don't think it is worth it. Look forward to coming back - sans extra cracker fees I hope! ### Lol to this response. For the record we actually ordered more food after the wine tasting. And enjoyed it. I have no hesitation recommending you for that. But I don’t know that this response helps you. And I can’t imagine doubling down on the feedback rather than providing a few more crackers, or at least not charging extra when some are requested. For the record 5/5 people at our table felt the cracker ratio was a problem. So I hope you can genuinely take that feedback on board with the good humor and genuine nature in which it was given. Not sure the current response defending an extra charge for a few extra crackers is worth it really.”

  “This is a one of a kind place in Cambridge. They specialise in wine and offer a range of dishes. We had the salmon pastrami, sourdough and parfait and courgette flowers. The food was absolutely delicious and the wine was good value as well.”
