Anyone who knows the area, do you know of a good summer pub to go to - I am not so much thinking of heavy drinking, but more somewhere to sit outside, have a beer and maby a little food? Especially near water :bliss:

Fairly new to the area and it was sunny on Sunday, but I realised that I don't know where all the good pubs are :cry: :|
 
The Mill in Brampton, Huntingdon is a super pub in the summer with good food and ale.
The Anchor at Sutton Gault is on a river and again the food and ale is superb.
The Falcon at Fotheringhay
Loads in Peterborough that are CAMRA affiliates.
As HF said the Fens is a big ol' area.

The Botolph Arms in Peterborough is cheap and is also the meeting place of AllDubzKlub

there are some nice pubs but the fens are a large area :)

Yah? Well it doesn't have to be within a mile of WSM, I don't mind driving for a bit to get to a real nice pub - like I say I'm not going there to get p1ssed, just enjoy the sun / beer / food :party0047: So please share all your hidden locations :party0021:

The Ferry Boat Inn in Holywell is lovely, and the Porsche owners club UK have there meets there, always nice to dump the bus in the middle of it :msn4:
 
shame you missed the food, not been there for a while, used to be banging on a sunday night.

there are some nice pubs round the coast, Thornham, Brancaster way, a bit further for you but great for a day out
 
jamie trundle at the jenyns.......aaahh the memories of drunken sundays kopping off with beautiful fillys and generally having a marvellous time :mrgreen: We used to enjoy the ship in long sutton but we lived there so we would
 
We have had a ride out to Five Miles From Anywhere No Hurry Inn at CB7 5ZR on a sunny Sunday, can be a bit difficult to find though.
