The place is located near the Madingley Hall, a beautiful country location of Cambridge University. The food was absolutely delicious.

Called them up last minute to reserve a table to which they happily obliged.

The Three Horseshoes is probably my favourite restaurant in the entire world…read more Set in the refreshringly green hamlet (or village, not really sure on the distinctions) of Madingley, it is a charmingly floral spot for a Summer's lunch and a cosy retreat from the Winter's chill. The food is innovative, interesting and always beautifully presented: having spent a lot of time in Italy, I am often dissappointed with the Italian food in England, but The Three Horseshoes always hits the right note. The seasonally changing menu is always a delight, but I particularly like their use of autumn veg, particularly butternut squash. Whatever buffalo mozzarella they use deserves a special place in heaven, and my boyfriend always manages to find room for their delicately seasoned lemon tart. Well worth a visit - if you're a student, this is definitely one to persuade your parents to take you to.

Lovely friendly staff. Food was delicious. I ordered the Cider cured trout filler with samphire, new potatoes, spinach and beurre blanc - outstanding. Fish cooked perfectly and the samphire added just the right amount of saltiness. For dessert, chocolate tart with homemade orange sorbet and jelly sours. Love the orange and chocolate combination, tasted just like a Terry's Chocolate Orange - yummy Huge garden which I'm sure is packed during nice weather. We did not book a table and were lucky! Make sure you make a reservation. Can't wait to go back.

There are two bars, one of which is the sporting area and holds the telly and dart board and is kitted out in dark wood throughout. The other bar is comfier with cushioned chairs and stools, lots of beer paraphernalia on the walls, there is also a real fire which is extremely welcoming on a cold winters afternoon. In the summer you can use the beer garden at the rear which is surprisingly large given the location. It is worth noting that at lunchtime, food is served noon until two, but its best not to get there too late. The food is uber-traditional, from excellent soup and sandwiches with home-cooked ham to more substantial dishes such as lasagne, and just about everything comes with excellent chips. As mentioned above the beer is varied and is also kept exceptionally well in my opinion. There is normally a choice of around five real beers on tap, ranging from a porter to much lighter choices, plus a couple of lagers. All in all, the world would be a better place if all pubs where like the Red Lion!

It's a modest pub - not endearingly attractive to look at, nor grand in scope or style, but the efforts of the team running the George is clearly rewarded by the loyalty of the locals. There's a warm welcome, and a good atmosphere of locals interacting with each other. Counting the outdoor seating, there are four distinct areas to the pub, which might at first seem a little old fashioned, but it's probably more evolutionary than dogma: a restaurant area, a lounge bar, and a TV / Games room. I welcome not having the distraction of a TV flickering in the lounge area, but I do wonder if the division of the lounge and restaurant doesn't make them both a little cramped. The food is Thai: a personal favourite. Perhaps they had a shaky start, and perhaps it's still not my favourite thai, but that said, the food is good. It comes in fair quantity, and is reasonably priced too. I did feel a bit done on one occasion however when I ordered a coffee, and was told, for some reason, that it would be instant. I didn't mind that, but I was charged filter coffee price for it! Instant coffee may have improved, but it's still not like freshly ground beans. At least, not in my opinion.

It's got strange live music, a pool table, a beer garden, free newspapers, a small but decent selection of beers, seating on the street, bar billiards (sometimes) and... thousands of pigs. That's right - this dark but warm little pub is brimful of random pig toys, pig posters and pig sculptures. It adds a unique atmosphere to an already well-known atmospheric pub. Being only about 20 houses away, you can trust me that this is a true local gem. After 5 on most nights you'll find this place packed with drinkers who can't be bothered to go home just yet or catch the train home to the villages. Even if it's near-freezing out you'll still see us taking our beers out and sitting on the grass by the BBC next door so that the smokers can smoke away. And on a hot summer night - it's just perfect. No need to go home until I get thrown out.

We only stayed for one drink and sat at the bar, but I loved the historical feel of the interior, the selection of British ales, and the friendly bartender. They have a wood fired pizza oven, so they do a variety of pizzas, as well as a traditional Sunday roast and other elevated pub fare. I'm told they completely renovated the interior in the last year or so to reduce the drinking area and increase the restaurant dining-in area. I did not try the food while I was there, but from what I see on their instagram, it looks classy and delicious. They also do a lot of events throughout the year, including live music and a big multi-day beer festival in the summer.
