1498 The Spice Affair

This is a gem of a place! My partner and I visited here last Saturday after looking around for somewhere to have a wee celebratory dinner, having just graduated on the Friday. I love a place you walk into that’s warm, atmospheric, authentic and have genuinely nice and friendly staff - this place ticks all those boxes. The food was delicious, with a great selection - it took us ages to decide between all the dishes!! To top off the whole night, the manager came over with two glasses of fizz on the house as a congrats which was such a lovely gesture! ? We’re not local and was only visiting Peterborough that weekend, otherwise we’d most definitely be back!

Creams Cafe Peterborough

I’ve always had a great experience in this Creams. Staff have always been friendly and my favourites are the triple treat cookie dough and the Oreo milkshakes. My favourite dessert place for sure.

Katana Peterborough

Had a great experience at katana restaurant ?️. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was lovely, and the service was excellent. A special mention to waitress Surbi, who was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. She really made our visit even better. Highly recommended!

the food being made in front of you :)) 10/10 reccomend!

The Red Lion

It was the 1st time we experienced The Red Lion. We managed to sit in the outdoor seating area as it was a nice evening. The service was attentive, friendly and the staff were very welcoming. There was a good selection of food, which looked and tasted fresh. We will definitely be returning to this hidden gem and it's nice to support an independent pub.

The Fitzwilliam Arms

Had a lovely catch up with a close friend, everything was spot on, Macy was attentive, friendly and hit the mark with all the offerings! We’ve had an amazing time!

Yet another tasty meal. Napoli, chips, bowl of salami, garlic bread and courgette chips were incredible. Everything was piping hot except the salad ? well done Vincenzo and the team. ????

This place is outstanding, food is amazing and the staff are incredibly helpful and friendly. Only ever sat in the restaurant! Would highly recommend this restaurant! Thank you to the staff who are always accommodating when we visit!

MOMOZ & MORE

Such a lovely little Nepali spot! ? The veg momos were soft and comforting and the jhol momos were honestly the star warm, spicy and so flavourful. The veg noodles were tasty too, just right and not greasy at all.
The ambience is cosy and cute and the staff are really friendly. It just feels like a simple, happy place to eat good food. Would definitely go again ?

XOXO

We had a lovely family dinner here yesterday and the kids absolutely loved it. The food was delicious and service was fantastic. Shout out to Phoebe whose attention to detail was brilliant. Her service made our visit to XOXO even more special.

Bella Italia - Peterborough

Great meal - food was all good quality, brought out hot and any changes to the dishes were correctly done. Our food was served quickly despite it being busy, and the waiter was very friendly and calm despite the business.

Halim's Adana Grill

when i saw the prices i was shocked at first, but as soon as i tried the food i knew why the prices were like that, the food was fabulous and it was a lot of food which i understand why the prices are like that, the man behind the till was very respectful and even offered me free tea and baklava which was very nice. the new seating made me have a nice relaxing time there and not to forget you get free bread and salad and humus in every main course. i would extremely recommend coming here especially with your family and friends

Las Iguanas - Peterborough

me and my partner did bottomless brunch and were served by niesha. she was so so lovely and was checking on us if we wanted any more drinks constantly which was great, we had an amazing time. the drinks and food were great and felt like amazing value for money

Deen's Curry & Grill

Been ordering from here for months now and the staff there are very accommodating and helpful would definitely recommend this place to anyone that enjoys indian food

The Woolpack Stanground

We held a wake at the Woolpack and Cleo, Adam the Chef and all of the staff working did an amazing job for us. We were so well looked after; the food was exactly as we had asked and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much.

Moorhen

On a notably hot and busy day at The Moorhen, the pub was bustling. Despite the volume, staff, led by the manager, were consistently attentive and professional. Notable investments in improvements were evident, including visible door security. Dogs were welcomed, and the atmosphere was convivial. The manager’s extra efforts, including a personal gesture of a keepsake glass, exemplified a commitment to service. In sum, it was a secure, family-friendly environment with good food, an asset to the community worth supporting.To that end, I encourage everyone locally to support The Moorhen, these efforts and people deserve backing. In difficult times for pubs, it’s vital to sustain this valued community asset, safeguarding livelihoods and ensuring it remains a cornerstone for all...and you can enjoy a pint whilst doing so!

The White Swan

The staff were lovely, so helpful. We were a table of 7 (3children). Food was excellent- large portions, and vv tasty.
The staff were really great. Thank you to everyone. (Sunday afternoon).

The Red Lion

Great gastronomic adventure.
The Red Lion sign states elevated food experience, wasn't disappointed ?
The owner/chef goes the extra, in creating well presented dishes with a creative touch. One of the
Startees was crab with apple crumble, great dish.
I went for traditional fish n chips, cooked to perfection ?
Service was good. Attentive.
Good wine selection, no silly prices either.
Nice older world pub atmosphere.
If your in West Deeping would thoroughly recommend.

Star Tandoori

Thanks again for your help late on Thursday night round at Riverside. Very patient, understanding and accommodating. Your delivery driver is a gentleman, he had a chuckle at our slight inebriation.
The food was great as usual and the garlic naan bread was specially delightful.
See you soon guys.

The Banyan Tree

Food is amazing, I’d say it’s the best in town. The starters are definitely the highlight. Some of my favourites are the chicken lollipop and the chatpata chilli chicken, which pair perfectly with a chilled Cobra beer.

Harvester Pavillions West Peterborough

Can't go wrong I order a main course salad and you get a big bowl to fill with just the salad bar ...low cost and healthy so you can still afford to eat out

Apple Cart

We came to The Apple Cart for our work’s Christmas meal and had a fantastic experience. The food was absolutely amazing and everyone really enjoyed their meals. The service was brilliant from start to finish- friendly, attentive, and made the whole evening run smoothly. We had a great time and would definitely come back again. Highly recommended!

TEN 10 Diner

Hands down the best spot in town! The smash burgers and loaded fries are absolutely amazing. The customer service is top-notch, and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for fantastic food.

The Coffee Hive

We absolutely love this little gem of a café! We often walk up at lunchtime as we both work from home, and it’s become such a lovely part of our routine.

The coffee is consistently amazing, and everything on offer looks beautiful, we haven’t tried the full food menu yet, but it all looks delicious. The homemade baked goods are incredible, and the sausage rolls are genuinely some of the best we’ve ever had. Shoutout to today’s Easter cookie too!

The prices are also such great value for the quality you get, which makes it even more of a local favourite compared to the big chains.

The staff are always so friendly and welcoming, which makes such a difference, especially with children. The kids absolutely love stopping by for a milkshake and are always made to feel so welcome.

A special mention today as well for such a thoughtful touch for Easter, with the owner kindly giving the kids an Easter egg each. The kids were thrilled with their Smarties eggs. It’s those little moments that really set this place apart.

Really happy to have this on our doorstep!

Elhoot Restaurant

I had a wonderful experience at this seafood restaurant. The food was fresh and absolutely delicious, and the service was friendly and professional. Everything was excellent, and I would highly recommend this place to anyone who loves seafood.

The Bread Pan

We had a gorgeous tablescape buffet for our wedding reception. The guests loved it and there were so many compliments. Would absolutely recommend to others.
It was really impressive to look at, beautifully presented with all the bits and pieces used in the display along with the food. The food was a great selection, something for everyone, and they were even able to cater especially for a few of the party who were vegan with a little dedicated section for them.
The team were also friendly and really good with communicating.
Thank you so much!

Nic's Home Bakes

nic made me some delicious dairy free cupcakes for my daughters 7th birthday. she also made biscuits personalised for my daughters party bag and packaged them separately. She's always very helpful and the cakes are delicious. Could not recommend her enough.

Pastroudis

McDonald's

Great outdoor play park for kids food is usually hot and problem free although staff do ignore and leave customers waiting, who want to pay cash.Kid-friendliness: Great outdoor play park with a very small area for baby/toddlers indoors

McDonald's

Nice little McDonalds with the standard menu and we stopped there yesterday for breakfast. We visited the drive-thru, the service was quick and the food tasted fresh. Bit of a strange layout with minimal parking but that didn’t bother us. Would recommend this restaurant if you’re passing.

McDonald's

Can be hit and miss here. More than often it's good, fast and fresh. But come at the wrong time and it can be slow. Nothing like it's former glory when it had massive kids play area and much faster service.

McDonald's

Food was good the only fault is when you take it away and eat at home it’s gone cold quick not so good. I think they should improve on the take away packing so the food stays hotter that would make a great difference. I live just over 1 mile from Drive through.

Vegetarian options: Only couple of choices

Parking: Plenty of parking use Morrisons car park

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly

Wheelchair accessibility: Level ground for wheel chair access

McDonald's

My experience at McDonald's on Bourges Boulevard in Peterborough was fantastic! The staff were incredibly polite and friendly, making me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. They handled my order with care, ensuring everything was just right.

The restaurant itself was clean and well-kept, and there was plenty of seating available. I enjoyed the classic McDonald's menu, and as always, my meal was fresh and delicious. The drive-thru service was also efficient, making it easy to grab a quick bite.

Overall, it's a reliable spot for a fast-food meal, and the excellent customer service sets this location apart. I highly recommend visiting when you're in the area!

The Bumble Inn

Popped in yesterday afternoon for a quick pint before catching a train, a nice selection of beers to choose from, will definitely visit again when the opportunity arises to sample a few more! ?

The Bluebell

Thought I'd write a review as it's my first time visiting the bluebell and boy we was not disappointed the beef perfect roast potatoes probably the best IV ever had and the gravy to die for for starters I had the pate what was the start of a great evening finished off with a lovely cheese board definitely will be returning great work guys even the chef came out to see us great work chef keep up the hard work

Boathouse

We went here for the first time to celebrate a joint family Birthday and what a lovely time we had too. From the moment we were met at the desk to leaving we were treated amazingly well. Our table for 4 was well spacious to accommodate all our plates and drinks. The staff were exceptional especially our Waiter Andre ?. He was fabulous from the start right to the end. We had a joke each time he came to the table. He was there at any moment we needed him with genuine care. He told us a few stories but I have forgotten the name of that amazing large meat dish you can get whilst in Portugal. Food was excellent and well worth the price which wasn't that expensive. No complaints whatsoever and will definitely return many times. Highly recommended ?

The Frothblowers

Cracking micro pub in a very select area of the city without being 'snobby' in any way. Great selection of ale always available, however, where this little pub really scores in in the cider offering. 39 on offer on this visit.

Gordon Arms - Pub & Grill

Just come back from celebrating my Auntie’s 70th birthday. Brilliant service, the staff were so friendly and the food was lovevly, generous size portions! The table was decorated with birthday decorations ?

Woodman

Enjoyable meal, very nice. Only one piece of advice, the mack and cheese came with a hot sauce. I expected to be in a seperate pot, however it was all over the back and cheese which ruined it for me

Queen's Head, Peterborough

Queens head shows a level of warmth and organisation like no other establishment. You are welcomed upon entry and made to feel a part of the family until you decide to leave.

Crab & Winkle

Great evening and experience ensured by our server Jade she looked after us and made sure we had everything we needed to make the experience a pleasant family outing

The Cuckoo

We had a wonderful meal at The Cuckoo. Tina in particular went above and beyond to make our experience so great. She was incredibly attentive and friendly throughout. She’s a credit to the pub. Give the girl a raise!

Ramblewood Inn

Great little spot. Only 1 complaint the seat had lost all it's padding so was like sitting in a bowl. Not all the chairs were the same. There was a wide selection of places to sit and chat or enjoy the sun outdoors with pleasant surroundings. Drinks were expensive but service was polite and efficient. Would go again if in the area.

Pasta Shop

Really nice family-run shop in Peterborough. Close to the Hampton so an easy one to drive to. Super affordable & incredible range of meats & accompaniments.
Lots of Italian cooking items, I’ve been addicted to the Italian sausage meats & unique pastas.

Argo Lounge

What a great place to be on a Tuesday evening. 3 Tapas and a pint for £13.95 is fab value. The food is superb, the service amazing, and is a wonderful advert for Peterborough. Staff deserve a special mention. Argo Lounge has crafted an exemplary team and it shows in all aspects of this wonderful cafe/bistro/restaurant

Royal China

I have been coming here for MANY years…every occasion…family get togethers…I got engaged here, had my wedding dinner here and have continued to enjoy every aspect of this place each time. The food is spectacular! Portions are perfect, staff very friendly and fast paced. My go to every year for our anniversary at a minimum. Definitely a must for those who haven’t been here yet.

The Bombay Brasserie

Good food, service was extremely slow. The only staff member with a smile was the chap serving drinks. Staff looked unhappy and stressed. Food was really good though

The Italian Gelato & Dessert Co

Absolutely delicious and amazingly served desserts! So many options to chose from and portions are massive. Loved it! The staff and atmosphere are super friendly and professional. Truly recommend it as best dessert place I've been to in Peterborough! ?

Mattoni Restaurant

We went to Mattoni in Hampton for a family birthday celebration and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Excellent, authentic Italian food with generous portions and a great choice of dishes. Everything was served hot and made with high-quality, authentic ingredients.
The service was outstanding. The waitresses and manager were incredibly accommodating and looked after our large birthday party perfectly. All the staff were very friendly and welcoming.

A big thank you to Tina the cook, and kitchen staff and the whole team for helping make our celebration so special. Highly recommended, and definitely go again.

Noble Eater Chinese

Hands down the best Chinese I’ve had in a very very long time. The ribs just fell off the bones and melted in your mouth, the rice was the fluffiest and most tasteful I’ve had. No complaints at all. My go to from now on.

Fryz Fish & Chips

Having traveled most of England as a commercial driver i have to say that this traditional fish and chip establishment is the best of all, lovely staff, fast service and a genuine interest in getting it RIGHT!

MATLEY Chinese Takeaway

Fast, efficient turn around when ordering by phone as we do. Great selection and possibly the only Chinese takeaway that you cen order half a portion of chicken balls. Who can eat a whole portion? I must admit that considering the good selection of meals on the menu we usually have the same every time. Predictably satisfying results.

The Indian Chef

Not ordered from here in years but under new management since I last did so I thought give it a try.

Food was amazing and so tasty with no runny curry with loads of oil on top, it was perfect with a nice thick sauce. Rice and naan breads lovely too. Definitely back to my number 1 takeaway, they do kebabs too so will have to try them next.

Thank you Indian chef … lovely !
See you soon.

Chaiiwala

During my last visit, I was very pleased with the friendliness and politeness of an employee named Nimra, the fast and clean service, and especially the new cookie and ice cream dessert. I leave happy every time?

Premier Pizza

Absolutely delicious food! No complains what so ever! The staff are very helpful & polite when ordering. Very welcoming when in store for collection and when we have the odd delivery we are always approached respectfully by the delivery driver

No complains what so ever, highly recommend!

Parking: Plenty of space to call in and collect your food, right out side the store & if that’s fully filled the. There is several car parks surround, ie doctors opposite and co’op where there is numerous parking spaces always.

Kid-friendliness: My daughter absolutely loves collecting her pizza from the premier pizza shop, the staff always engage with her and make her feel very welcomed

The portions are mega, fills you up and can get great deals ordering as a single person, couple or family, very great for leftovers for the following day too!!!! ALSO ITS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!! WOW! Service is 10/10 lady at counter is so lovely! And if delivery is not busy it gets over to dogsthorpe area very quick (20 mins after ordering)

The Master Chef - Indian Take Away

Been a customer for many years! Last night I tried the Loaded crispy chicken nachos for the first time. Now if you appreciate Nachos like me from one nacho fan to another you must must try these!

The Admiral Wells

Always a great meal we travel up once every 3 months and always on our to go list. Never had a bad meal and reasonably priced. Staff are friendly. And a quiet atmosphere.
Great im the summer to sit outside in the beer garden or cosy by the fire inside during the winter.

The Frying Scotsman

1st time visitor
Food was fantastic really tasty great choice not just
Sausage, egg & bacon
Clean and the queue says it all
Loved the wrap how you get that much in defies physics but from a van top stuff

Montagu Arms

This is a perfect establishment. The food is well portioned and flavourful, the staff are engaging and courteous and of course the beverages are exactly what you would want them to be.

The Ostrich Inn

The Ostrich Inn is a haven, an oasis and a godsend. The staff are wonderful, the range of beers and ciders is extraordinary. The decor, pithy signs, Ostrich Inn merchandise and the entertainments are second to none.

The Blue Bell

Lovely setting, excellent food, friendly staff, great place for dinner. Latest visit we shared a crab cake starter and warm bread with oil/balsamic dip, wife had steak and I went for the vegetable curry - all served quickly and all delicious. Plenty of choice of drinks for the designated driver - no room for dessert this time but they've always been good in the past.

Salt N Vinegar Peterborough

This Place is the best Food in Werrington Hands down , I always get wings and chips but sometimes I change it up . No matter what I get everything is fresh and tasty ?. I recommend Salt N vinegar to anyone in area . 10/10 best food ?

The Cherry House At Werrington

Had a Very nice meal on Saturday night. The food and drink was very good as always and very reasonably priced. The petit fours are always a treat and a very nice Bailey's coffee in a wine glass which I have never seen before but looked impressive. Will be going back again soon.

Pierogarnia

I remember coming here a good few years ago for the first time (I believe it was when they first opened?) and service and food was great. Went back today for the first time in a few years and it was a great experience...

Staff was very friendly, was a very relaxed atmosphere. Ordered some pierogi and Kotlet Schabowy po góralsku, and it was delicious. Im very picky when it comes to pierogi and i was very happy how these came out. And the kotlet had so much flavour and was cooked perfectly... if I didnt get so full, I would have ordered seconds. Will definitely be coming back soon!

The Talbot Inn

A brilliant local, traditional pub with a real community feel. Jon and Liv are amazing hosts who go above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome. The food is great value and always tasty, the service is brilliant and the drinks are excellent value for money. I love the gin fizz cocktail too! A proper pub done right — warm, friendly atmosphere, great quality all round, and somewhere we will always keep coming back to. Highly recommended!

A Tasca

Really nice place where you can enjoy home made food of portugueses traditional dishes. Nice to see local British customers enjoying this kind of Mediterranean diet. Always tidy and clean place with friendly staff.

Jinja

Popped in for a fry up. Chose the number 1 set menu at £7.95. Asked them to swap out the bacon for some saute potatoes. It also came with a mug of coffee and a couple of rounds of white toast buttered.

Rizq Peri Peri Grill

Have ordered the same thing from Rizq a few times now for takeaway, namely the half peri peri chicken with chips, salad, chilli sauce and mayo. For the price the portion size is excellent and if you’re into the gym it’s actually a pretty decent high protein meal too.

Can’t really go wrong with peri peri and the flavours are always good. The chips are nice as well and the salad helps balance things out a bit. My only criticism is that I think the chicken would taste even better if it was grilled a little longer so the skin and edges had a bit more crispiness and char to them.

Overall though a solid local spot and definitely somewhere I’d happily order from again.

Sir Henry Royce

Not the 1st time been here went with a group,bar staff good as well as door staff all helpfull and dealt with a situation swiftly and professional keep up the good work

Pizza Perfection

My 1st time order as new to the area. There was abit of a delay with food arriving. I was worried that there was multiple drops on route. But the driver phoned me on route, and was advised foot would be piping hot. And it was, and delicious.
Will definitely use again!!

Curly’s cafe

Parking is a bit odd but been told there's some round the back. When we first walked in it was so refreshing and bright. There's a mirror that makes it feel large. Good choice of food. There's things to read if you forget your phone. Staff are warm and friendly.

Summer 2025 & back in Peterbough. Always try to seek out somewhere different, independant. Coffee time. They do food, so other peoples views would be better.
Julis Meini, very interesting.

O’ Pizza & Kebabs

I've been using this shop for some time now. It is always good quality, fresh and hot food, friendly delivery, only thing. Sometimes chips are not too standard, but to be honest, overall, 5 stars brilliant take away choice.

Chippy Sue's

So nice to find a chippy that uses beef dripping. Reminds us of Yorkshire. We moved to the area last year but only discovered this chippy by the lovely smell while out walking

Jenas

We live a family take away delivery from Jenas. Delicious roti and clay oven marinated chicken tikka is delicious. With raw onion and mint yogurt, it’s a great dish! Thank you
