Very delicious and surprising starters. Main courses were very tasty and beautifully set out. Puddings were fine. It’s a really lovely place to eat and hear each other talk. Jade and Josh run a great little restaurant. Not cheap but special. I recommend this place.

My friend and I visited the Six Bells in Fulbourn for the first time last night. The staff were lovely and the food was great. As vegetarians, we often struggle to find something on the menu that isn't a plant burger and the mushroom bourguignon pie was fantastic. The chef took the time to explain that the gravy was vegan as well, which was very much appreciated. It's a lovely pub, great value and the manager and the team were incredibly warm and welcoming.
