Enjoyed a fantastic meal at the Golden Pheasant in Etton. A group of 8 of us, we pre-ordered off the festive menu. The menu was so reasonably priced for such high quality, professional food - it is worth more! The food was all presented beautifully, and was extremely tasty. You can tell this chef is highly trained! The entire table said how tasty the food was, and we all enjoyed sharing the vegetables/ accompaniments- it felt like a family Christmas dinner! The service was friendly, thank you so much to our two lovely waitresses Alison and Ashleigh, and the General Manager Suzanne. We loved our festive table with decoration and crackers! Excited to see posters for future special menus and events in the pub too - looking forward to New Year’s Eve and the Tasting Menu evening with Big Bird Catering! Having been aware of the food and service previous years not being so good, it was exciting to see such a good quality food offering, varied menus, and such friendly service. A superb local establishment for all of the outskirts-of-Peterborough villages. Thanks Golden Pheasant Team!

We had a lovely family get together with my elderly parents here on Sunday. We had a room to ourselves as there were a good few of us. The food was absolutely spot on and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff were also excellent. I would recommend this pub, it was a great experience and we hope to go back in the summer

December 8, 2024

Unfortunately just returned home after an extremely disappointing meal. We had the Sunday roast and one person of our party had the fish and chips. We waited an hour and half for the food to arrive to be met with cold beef for all three that had it, cold chicken, two big burnt Yorkshires with burnt vegetables and potatoes to share within them which were also cold and the fish tasted like it was off. It was a massive shame, the staff were very nice and accommodating and it really is a lovely atmosphere but the food was just not at an acceptable or edible standard, especially for the price. If you’re looking for a pint with a nice atmosphere, I’d recommend but if you’re looking for a decent meal, I would not. Such a shame for a local lovely venue.

Nice clean country pub. I had Halibut mustard grain fondue, crab, which was very nice, my son had the beef burger with added bacon and fries, to which he said was delicious, it certainly looked very good, with a generous portion of fries, my wife and mother in law both opted for the sausage and mash, this was served in a bowl, which was full to the top, good helping of mashed potato and ample gravy, the sausages, to which they got three each were a really good size, not jumbo’s but not standard size, they both enjoyed this dish very much, for dessert,, three of us had the apple and pear crumble which again was delicious and my wife had the chocolate Affogato which was equally as good. Service was outstanding, although it was very quiet on our visit (Thursday lunchtime) the waitress was very good checking everything was ok and very quick In getting refreshments to the table. The pub itself was very clean, no sticky tables etc to which you sometimes get in other places. I would definitely recommend this place, and will definitely be returning at some point.

Amazing!! We were a party of six including children and everybody had a lovely meal. The menu had something for everyone and we all left very happy. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, the food was stunning, chef max did an amazing job, I would’ve had ordered one of everything on the special if I could have. 10/10 Will be back again soon.

Thursday evening supper with friends was convivial and very enjoyable in this excellent local pub. The menu is sensibly short with classics like fish and chips along with more adventurous offerings. Photos attached of my pigeon breast starter and sea bass on truffle risotto (sorry forget to take before I started!). The wine list is also short but a good selection and well priced. We enjoyed a Picpoul. The decor is gradually being updated by the new owners/managers but the friendly efficient service made the odd brick wallpaper disappear! Will definitely return. Good place for walking and cycling.

Bad experience. Food area was cold, also heard someone else say they was cold. Tables couldnt fit legs under well, waited 40 minutes for food to come just the two of us and place was empty and then when it came it was awful. Burnt, cold, and gravy is not gravy and is like water. Got a full refund as we didnt eat it but not what you want on a sunday.

Went as a party of 9 for Sunday lunch. Pre-orderd mains as requested. Very disappointed. The beef was raw not rare ( and fatty)! The Yorkshire pudding bowls were so burnt we couldnt eat them. The gravy was like water and tasteless. Did mention the issues and got a round of drinks on the house, but would of preferred to pay full price for an amazing meal. The staff were lovely though and very apologetic. Sadly wont be going back

We have been to, and eaten, at The Golden Pheasant a few times now since its reopening with new owners. Everything is settling in brilliantly. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming. We have eaten there a few times, enjoying from the Pub Classics and the Specials menus. The Sunday sharing roasts are truly fantastic. We ate last Thursday night at their speciality Steak Night and were not disappointed. Huge compliments to the new Chef, Max. The fillet steak and choice of different sides were outstanding. Keep up the excellent work, it s great to see this beautiful village pub coming back to its glory again. Also, keep an eye out for the Nine Bridges Beer Festival to be held there again next year, superb event with excellent ales on offer.

Thank you for the fabulous meal we enjoyed yesterday for our mum s 80th birthday celebration. From start to finish, we felt incredibly well looked after. While planning this special surprise for my mum, the communication from the team was outstanding. Nothing was too much trouble, and every detail was handled with care. The staff followed my instructions to the letter and went above and beyond, even helping to hide my sister, who had flown in from Canada that morning, to create a truly unforgettable moment for Mum. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was exceptional. Every member of staff was attentive, friendly, and ensured the celebration went smoothly. Thank you so much for helping to make this day so special for our family. I highly recommend Golden Pheasant for any occasion you will not be disappointed!

Visited twice in two weeks - once for Sunday lunch - whole roast chicken to share, and once for Friday evening meal - dressed crab. On both occasions the food was both delicious, and beautifully presented. Great menus, and every member of staff that we encountered was extremely welcoming and helpful. Could not have asked for more, and looking forward to returning.

Lovely pub in a quiet village. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of a noisy atmosphere while also enjoying free parking and good food, this is the place to visit.

October 22, 2024

Cold food. Sausages reheated three times! (Severe health issue with pork!!). One meal out of 9 ordered never even came to the table. The crudest version of a Tarte Tartin Ive ever witnessed, consisting of half an apple (unpeeled and uncored), cut in half wrapped in pastry. Rudest of rude Manageress who was not interested in hearing complaints. Raising her voice, telling us were not welcome to return. Ahem, we will never return Madam!!

Table for 3 people, only two meals arrived because the chef had not read the complete order. One meal should have been gluten-free but arrived with bread sauce and no standard veg served with it. Extra veg had been ordered to account for no Yorkshire pudding, so only that veg arrived - 5 minutes after main plate. 3rd persons food was cancelled altogether and reordered as a different dish so we could at least all be eating at the same time. Very apologetic staff but shocking to see no measures in place to prevent cross contamination of food after being assured that gluten-free options are available. Please review this before something bad happens to one of your customers. Ww will not be returning! Dietary restrictions: Poor

We held a wake for our late father on 22/8/24 and were offered the marquee for our private function at no extra cost. Exceptional buffet of sandwiches, all prepared with freshly cooked meats and other fillings. Delicious homemade sausage rolls and scotch eggs (with runny yolks). Olives, crisps and gorgeous homemade cupcakes and tray bakes. Variety of different teas and coffee. The chef prepared a delicious risotto for our guests with dietary requirements. Very well organised, presented and great value for 40+ people. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back again for a meal. Thank you to Martin, Max and all the staff for making a tough day much better.

Had the rib roast for sharing (2) and it was beautiful! Servers/Chef considerate enough to cook to medium for the outer parts and mid-rare for me in the middle to suit both our preferences.

Booked a table for 2 ppl at 13.15hrs on a Sunday as it was our wedding anniversary and wanted something a little different. Boy did we get it! Took nearly 50 mins to get the starter (which was just bread and oil) with main course being delivered 15 mins later. Most main course choices where shared so if you didnt agree on what you wanted - tough. The lamb was still baaaaaaing when it came out (guess thats what gourmet food is like ) and half way through the meal water started pouring through the ceiling meaning we had to relocate (no assistance given by the staff) to a table further away from the leak. By the time wed moved the rest of the food had gone cold. All but one other cover had left and we seemed to have got forgotten. Had to go and find someone to ask about getting the bill. Had one round of drinks knocked off for the inconvenience of the leak although nothing was said by the staff. Wont be rushing back.

Nice small country pub... friendly welcome... Sunday Lunch was very nice... service not so good... the waitress seemed more interested in talking to her family than dealing with paying customers... we ordered lamb but got beef... the chef even came out to reassure us that it was lamb but it was a very beefy tasting and looking lamb...? Go figure...? I wasnt going to argue and the meal was very nice... however upon leaving sarcastic remarks were made by the waitresses family... something about chicken tasting like duck... comments that were not called for... good and bad comments... but a result im sorry to say I wont be going going there again...

Kids then vanished off to the play area whilst the food was prepared. Portions were a decent size, and the food was lovely. Host and staff were available throughout, and were both hospitable, friendly and professional. All in all a 5* visit and looking forward to our next visit. Parking: Loads of it and not an issue. Kid-friendliness: Large play are for the kids, and a green/paddock with a football goal in it. There is also a crazy golf course available for a small charge.

Sunday lunch was great, generous portions and delicious. We were in the back room which was very echo -y and could hear every word of the conversations on the other tables so definitely not for a romantic, intimate meal Didnt like that as well as our table reservation there was the same reservation plaque for the booking after us. It made us feel like we were on a timer which was a real shame as it took the shine off a lovely lunch and we were gone well before the next people anyway. A bit more of a subtle approach would have made all the difference.

We had a impromptu meal here on Saturday early evening. A table was free for and hour and a half. They had a small outside menu until they return back inside. I chose the salad with dates strawberries balsamic vinegar. Yes it sounds a bit weird but the vegan block cheese was heaven. So much so so ive gone and bought some. The salad was divine.... The wine a little too pricey at £7.15 for a large.. id probably have a cider when we next go back. Great food

Birthday meal was booked for the restaurant several weeks ago, but disappointed when allocated a table in the bar when we arrived. It was noisy and attention to detail by staff was poor. We had to request cutlery on both occasions when served with starter and main course. The atmosphere in the bar was not conducive for a family meal. We were very disappointed with the meal..it seemed the staff was pandering to local friends rather that the paying customers. ,

Booked for dinner and arrived at the 6.30 booked time - was promptly offered drinks. Had to ask for a food menu, after ~30 mins had to hunt for someone to take the order. The menu isnt large and we were informed that Pizzas were unavailable as they had run out of ingredients. Ordered Fish and Chips and Burger - food was ok. No one came to offer desert or coffee. Had to hunt for someone to get the bill, had to repeat since no one actually came the first time.

Had a wonderful meal for 4 last night at The Golden Pheasant. We ate in the bar as there was a function on but this was fine as we got to see the owner in action with is hosting skills and banter. Food cooked by his wife/chef was wonderful and all homemade. Definately will visit more often.

My mum paid £480 for a buffet for my dads wake. My dad was a regular in there. The buffet was all open before we arrived so was a bit warm and starting to dry out. The table it was on was not very big. There was sandwiches, pork pies, sausage rolls some Doritos and not a lot more. Im disgusted I would not have paid 50 quid for it and my dad would have been very disappointed. I would never use this pub again. They should be ashamed of themselves

Five of us visited for Sunday Lunch and we had a friendly welcome and very good service always checking if everything was ok. We had a Sunday roast and the need and pork belly were cooked to a good standard.. There was a variety of seasonal vegetables which were also cooked well. 3 had Etton Mess as dessert and two of us shared a cheese board which was very well presented with variety of cheeses an fruit. Probably best I have seen. It was an enjoyable visit with appropriate banter you left feeling comfortably full.

What a find! A really great pub and restaurant with truly wonderful food, attentive, spot-on service and a charming proprietor. This was the best Sunday roast we have had in a long time. Both the beef and the lamb were succulent and tender and the veg, plentiful and cooked al dente accompanied with perfect roast potatoes. This really was proper home cooked food. The deserts did not disappoint either, all were fabulous, particularly the apple crumble and custard! To top it all off, the gentle background music of Northern Soul and Motown was awesome! We highly recommend this place and both ourselves and our friends will be returning.
