The Oak Bistro

Every dish was exquisitely presented and the food tasted amazing. Philip was an excellent host and made us feel very welcome. We all felt that the prices represented great value for money.

Lovely dinner at the Oak Bistro. Prawns were some of the freshest I've had in the UK. Duck was surprisingly crisp and tender, but I think could have done with more jus. The fish was flaky and well cooked as well. Service was wonderful.

The Oak Bistro is the best restaurant in Cambridge. The cheesecake I just ate was possibly the best pudding I have ever eaten - the balance of flavours, the perfect and satisfying textures and sensuous mouth feel were all simply perfect. We had three starters (prawns, scallops and pork belly) all were fabulous- we spent a good 5 minutes trying to decide which was the best. The mains were excellent (the Cod and the gnocchi), great flavours, everything perfectly cooked. The wine at only £30 was sensational (see the picture), if I had paid £100 for that bottle I would have been happy. I have eaten everywhere in Cambridge and there are tons of good places but as of June 2023 this is the best on just about every measure including value for money. Sorry that some of the pictures are of food that we had started, the presentation is good too just spoiled by us diving in.

Amazing dinner at The Oak Bistro! We did not have a reservation, but they kindly accommodated us at the last minute. The food was delicious; I really recommend the wellington if you like red meat. IT was super tender and tasty! I finished with the sticky toffee pudding, which was really good too! The staff was really kind, and extra attentive to my friend who was pregnant. Don't hesitate!

I was lucky to dine here twice in one day. I had the mushroom risotto as a starter but nothing else as returning in the evening. It was delicious. The evening party had beef Wellington, halibut and pork belly. All were enjoyed. The oak has a large wine list with plenty of variety. Service was very friendly so I’d love to return next time I’m in Cambridge.
