Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Buckden

Fantastic food, relaxed vibe. Friendly staff! Looking forward to next visit.

Quick Christmas lunch with a very good customer and some tasty tasty food. Highly recommend the tandoori lamb kebab 😋

Ourselves and two other couples get together once a month for a meal at different restaurants and pubs. We chose the Sword in Hand as it has a good reputation for food, and isn’t far from where we live. The meal was exquisite, 4 of us having the “Christmas pie” and thoroughly enjoyed it. The other 2 had chicken schnitzel, and fish and chips, who also had no complaints. The service was impeccable, giving extra commendation to the younger staff who were very attentive, ensuring we were happy with the meals and drinks. I would definitely recommend a visit.

A little disappointed with the pies and vegetables. The broccoli had gone yellow in parts and the meat was not brilliant in the pies. Just a few tweaks to bring the food up to scratch, we had Sunday lunch here before and had to send back parsnips as not cooked. The venue and staff are brilliant, please bring the food up to top notch.

Had the Festive Menu of Roast Turkey followed by Gingerbread Cake. Very impressed, all well cooked & tasty. Fresh ingredients. Excellent service in a lovely setting. Reasonable priced.
