Cock Pub & Restaurant, The Description
A highly acclaimed restaurant and traditional pub in the delightful village of Hemingford Grey, offering English and European cooking; it has been transformed from the former village pub into a place where the regular village lads are as much at home as those who come from further afield to enjoy the full range of facilities. Conveniently The Cock is open seven days a week.
The Cock is regularly listed in The Good Food Guide and The Good Beer Guide. In 2003 it was voted Real Ale Pub of the District, and achieved further recognition when it has been made Cambridgeshire Dining Pub of the Year every year from 2005 to 2007 by The Good Pub Guide.
On dull winter days the décor is bright enough and helped by wood burning fires, to encourage thoughts of summer days not far away, when the spacious garden also comes into its own. Sunday lunches are a speciality, with the meat sourced from local suppliers.
An a la carte menu makes a strong play for the fish eaters of this world with a daily board offering the best the market has to offer for starters and main courses. Mushroom, spinach and goat's cheese gratin with Dijon mustard, and ham hock terrine with mustard dressing, potato salad and deep fried parsley are regular attenders amongst other starters, along with beef carpaccio and potato gallette with Ribblesdale Blue.
The Cock is renowned for its selection of homemade sausages, notably the beef and porter variety, redolent of a lost age when quality had not been superseded by mass production. Rib-eye steaks with hand cut chips, port sauce, sauté shallot, tomato, garlic and mushroom offers excellent value.
Puddings kick off with a Pimms and raspberry crème brûlée, there's the Cock's take on sticky toffee pudding and some exciting ice creams, including honey and ginger and maple pecan fudge. British and Irish cheeses make a welcome appearance to round off a meal that carries the hallmark of quiet excellence.
An extremely informative Website, as you would naturally expect from such a well run place, will tell you much more about what you are going to experience.

Your Reviews of Cock Pub & Restaurant, The
Paula Pilson + Mandy (2 May 2007)
Lovely food and atmosphere - really tickled our giggle buttons.
Dan and Jo (28 January 2007)
We visited this restaurant following many recommendations from friends and family and are glad we finally made a booking and experienced the whole package first hand. The atmosphere is great, the food is fabulous, and the staff are more than happy to help. Our original booking of a table for two increased, twice, and 'The Cock' was very accommodating. We've since returned and were even greeted by name...definitely one worth returning to!
