My family and I had Christmas Day lunch at the Waterwheel. Everything about it was excellent. The communication, the organisation, and the assistance with the special needs of one of our party (dairy intolerance) was handled with care and utter professionalism. The food was absolutely perfect. One of the nicest meals I've ever had. This was backed up by absolutely excellent service as well. All of the staff were friendly, attentive, and very professional. I will certainly be hoping to come back again. Top notch, and very highly recommended.

Recently, I enjoyed a magnificent roast for a gathering of eight. From the first glance to the last bite, it was a feast that delighted every sense and turned a meal into a celebration.

Brilliant and informative presentation of champagne from monopole, match with excellent food and served with charm and grace. Not the drink talking as I was the designated driver.

We had a wonderful champagne tasting experience. There were 6 different full gasses of champagne with matching plates. The food was first rate (tasty, interesting and well matched to the wine). Overall an excellent evening!

What a delightful culinary discovery in Cambridge! While the restaurant's setting is pleasant enough, it's the extraordinary food that truly steals the show here. The kitchen's expertise is nothing short of exceptional. Each dish emerged as a masterpiece of flavour and presentation, demonstrating remarkable attention to detail and creative flair. The chef's commitment to excellence was evident in every carefully crafted course, making this establishment a genuine haven for food enthusiasts. The service was impeccable – attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable without being pompous, and delivered with the sort of quiet confidence that comes from true professionals. The staff struck that perfect balance between formal and friendly that makes dining out such a pleasure. Yes, the prices reflect the premium experience on offer, but given the outstanding quality of the cuisine, one can hardly quibble about the cost. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for – and here, you're paying for culinary excellence. For those seeking truly exceptional food in Cambridge, The Waterwheel is, quite simply, a must-visit establishment. While the ambiance might not bowl you over, the masterful cooking certainly will. Book well in advance – this level of culinary expertise won't remain a secret for long.

Amazing food at the Waterwheel. We had the duck and the risotto. Both extremely tasty, duck very small portion though. Desserts were also very flavourful. Our server Piotr was very good, professional, and very attentive to our needs. There was only us and one other couple in the restaurant at the time so we got to choose where we wanted to sit. We chose next to the waterwheel which was lovely. A truly great evening.
