Be arrived about 1:30 Saturday afternoon. Ordered coffee. Then we ordered some drinks and then we ordered food. Coffee came out then we ordered drinks. The food came out and she was so busy. She'd forgot drinks but she soon sorted them out for us ,not a problem. Food was good. I had chicken and ba
Nice food . Lovely atmosphere. Great music playing too
Servicing the Premier Inn it is adjacent to, the Balkerne is a busy pub with lots of workers using the place. The menu reflects the changing times for example you now have to pay 49p for a naan bread where it used to be included in the meal. The menu and beer/lager options are all decent and the sta
Really lovely. Clean, welcoming great food and drinks at good prices. Staff friendly and helpful.
Excellent thank you
I popped into this pub for lunch whilst my car was being serviced at a nearby dealer. Excellent service from the staff, extremely attentive and well presented. Jade (waiting staff) was pleasant and a credit to the establishment. I had the mixed grill which was nice, one piece of steak was better tha
brilliant roast turkey was a bit crewy though but it was great
Overall nice meal, not busy for a Saturday and had about three different waitresses but they were nice enough. Had the mixed grill and steak was actually cooked nicely which is rare on a mixed grill. Would recommend.
Better than the Bowling Green at Weeley where the carpet is filthy. More wood at Balkerne Gate. Service a bit slow. Had to wait longer for one member of our six starters. Had to remind staff. Other than that a good meal at a reasonable price
Polite staff and a clean and comfortable dining experience. Food was nothing special - just the average 'pub grub' so have rated it 5 stars as wasn't expecting anything otherwise. There was just something 'missing' from my overall experience of the Balkerne Gate but I can't quite put my finger on it
Food was lovely service and atmosphere good as well and not overpriced
I had a dinner here with family, looking for somewhere quiet and some choices. It's not especially special, but did provide some options for vegans. I had the mini pie trio and it was good, especially the curry one and the lamb and mint one.
The servers were friendly, but the menu cannot be altered
Food was lovely, staff were very friendly and atmosphere was wonderful
Visited for tea whilst staying at the Premier Inn next door. Friendly welcome, quick service and piping hot food. Great price too. Would definitely recommend
We enjoyed a mid afternoon sharing platter this afternoon. Service a bit slower than usual, used plates needed clearing away, suggesting staff a bit thin on the ground, but food was served promptly and was tasty..
