I have to say that the New Inn is probably one of my favorite pubs and places to eat in the entire…read moreCambridgeshire, Suffolk, and Norfolk vicinity. The owners are very kind and treat you like you are part of the family. Always a good vibe, and always feel very welcome. What I love most about their menu is that they serve fresh game. I love their game soup. Anything they serve that is game deserves an A+. I crave their game meals on a daily basis. I wanted to go here for Valentines Day but I could not get my husband to drive out of Newmarket and resorted to another pub which I wasn't happy with, so he does owe me a night at the New Inn. They always have new specials, it is always wise to check out their specials on the black board. I always have their specials whatever they are. They never disappoint. I have had their Sunday carvery and it is delicious. I never over spend, I always get a lot for my money, I am always happy and my tummy is full and my taste buds are always satisfied. They have a pretty good selection of ales, beers and ciders. Their menu is pretty large, I will take pictures of it and post it soon. There is lots to eat if you are a vegetarian and lots to eat if you are not! I need to try their exotic meats on a slab, they get exotic meat flown in from Scotland.

We had heard the reviews and thought we would try this place. It's a small drive into the country,…read morebut not too bad. The bar area is a bit small, but there are plenty (about 10) of different beers on tap. I ordered a Greene King IPA and found it very tasty; not overtly hoppy tasting. There are many smaller dining rooms that make the patron feel cramped for space, so we elected to sit in the covered porch area for dinner. I ordered the fish and chips and thought it average. Overall, the service was good, the meal was hot, and the beer cold. Nothing fancy, though.

Ok, first review of a UK pub. Walked into this place as an American and got the idea that this was…read morea local watering hole not used to "strangers". I was all alone, so I bellied up, ready to do some drinking with my first pub in Britain experience. The bartender was an older gentleman, maybe in his 60's and appeared gruff as we he chatted up a few of the regulars on the opposite side of the bar. When he asked what I wanted I asked him about the cask ales on tap and found out they have two "visitor" cask ales, which means a rotation of two taps for seasonal beers. I asked for the darkest one, to which the locals exclaimed "brave man"...this was the ice breaker (and show of my manliness) needed to start having some conversations with the bartender and locals. Soon I knew them, and they knew me, and we became drinking buddies. Now, the reason I bring up my experience is I've heard from other American's who have came here they felt not very welcomed, and this could be the case if you approach it the wrong way, but if you come in, have some thick skin and be brave enough to order some dark beer, it can be a memorable experience. To review the drink and food itself. Besides the two rotational cask ales, there was your standard light taps (and of course the Guinness tap). I appreciate that I can come back here and continue to try new cask ales that come in. The food was good, not great, but then again, I don't really know how you can screw up or improve upon standard British fare (which in this case was "bangers and mash" (sausage and mashed potatoes). The menu was limited to pub fare with a special that I can't remember, but if I come back here, it won't be for the food, it will be for the beer and conversation.
