The Plough Coton

About The Plough Coton

Sitting just outside Cambridge with free parking and a sunlit terrace, this village pub does proper cooking without making families feel like an inconvenience. The staff get described as attentive, good-humoured and unbothered by fuss, and drinks tend to land quickly — helpful when someone small is unravelling. There's a kids' menu, high chairs and buggy access, plus vegan options, and the outdoor tables give restless children somewhere to be. Dogs are welcome too. Roast potatoes are excellent and the roast comes with a generous spread of vegetables; the duck leg, pork belly bites and arancini get particular praise. It's smarter than a standard local, so ££ feels fair rather than cheap, and midweek evenings already fill up — one family found it busy on a Wednesday, so book for Fridays and weekends.
