Reviews
The staff were wonderful at this restaurant, but the food unfortunately wasn't. We went specifically for the Sunday roasts. It's a real shame they offer no vegetarian roast option, just a risotto. The roast potatoes weren't crispy, which the menu boasts! The pork was flavourless and there was one tiny, lonely, stuffing ball. The other accompaniments were all quite nice. I can easily cook a better roast at home. I would expect chefs cooking such a limited menu 5ish options for each course to do better.
Recently visited Ben's again for an anniversary meal having previously been and loved it. Really disappointed as although my partners meal was lovely, mine was not. When I asked to send it back I was told there was nothing wrong with it and it was exactly as the chef wished. The waitress told us Ben would come out to talk to us but this did not happen. Another waiter called Rob then served us and he was brilliant, unfortunately the rudeness of the waitress prior to this had put such a dampener on the evening we left. I really hope this was a one off as we had had such a good experience before.
Absolutely fantastic place to visit. Excellent food. We first stumbled across this place after a trip to the cinema. It was the last evening of their special pie event. Those were the best pies we ever tasted! We've also been back for the usual menu, the Sunday lunch and the Afternoon Tea, all of which were of a great quality. The staff are such lovely, respectful people. Couldn't recommend it highly enough.
Really enjoyable food. Not cheap but you really get your money's worth. I had a wood pigeon Kiev which is one of the best starters I can remember enjoying for a while. Main was a pork belly dish which was generous with the meat, cooked till it was perfectly tender. Most others on the table got beef bavettes with chips and they all seemed very happy. Deserts were mainly tarts which looked splendid. All food was very well presented. Service was friendly and attentive. I'd thoroughly recommend and will probably come back soon.
Ben's prides itself on the quality of its meat and we weren't disappointed. I had lamb for my main course and the meat was very flavoursome. The food overall, though, falls short of perfection on the smaller details: the potato dauphinoise style had a very chewy baked top for example. But we had a very enjoyable evening with friendly, attentive but not overpowering service.
Fab place. Food excellent. Compliments to the chef for all round efficiency and tasty fayre. He cooked everything from scratch virtually single handedly in full view of the guests! Fish and chip special night ...batter so light it nearly floated...delicious fish. Staff so friendly and obliging. In a party of 10 but everything so slick so no waiting or mistakes with service. Very reasonable too. Wonderful find...will return
Great seasonal menu. We both enjoyed every course and was one of the best meals we have had in the UK. The quality of the food is excellent and locally sourced but yet all very reasonably priced. Staff are wonderful and the atmosphere is very welcoming. Top of our list for restaurants in Bury/Cambridge area.
My wife took me here to celebrate my promotion and the food and service were great! I would definitely come back here again! However I wish they would get some new knives. I could cut my food better with my knuckles than their knife. Please Ben's.
Food and service were smashing. They try to source ingredients locally, which is always a plus. Decor is simple but adequate. The Rabbit Tagliatelle, wow...if you get a chance, try it. I am not usually a game eater, as it tends to be too strong for me, but this was spot on. I will be going back.
In case anyone reads my review on TA entitled "Local review" which I'm not able to update I was not saying we wouldn't pay. We had a voucher and would not choose to go to this restaurant and pay with our own money. An overly sensitive reply to a review which was our experience on the day. It was not a successful visit for us and owners should be open to a criticism. Hopefully we can do better if you visit again is a more dignified response.
