"I would have liked to give this popular venue 3.5 stars if it were possible because, although decidedly unspectacular in terms of the food, I believe it is filling exactly the niche its proprietors intend and is therefore just that bit above average. It is surprising to find a place like The Pumphouse at Nene Court. Going by the general vibe of the shops and businesses there, you would expect to find an upmarket (or at least 'gentrified ' delicatessen or coffee-shop here but, whilst The Pumphouse looks quite grand from the outside, inside it has the stark atmosphere of a canteen/dining hall. As others have observed, it appears a little down-at-heel and utilitarian in décor. However, as far as I could see, it was perfectly clean and hygienic and its resemblance to what we used to call a 'greasy spoon ' is superficial. There is an extensive menu, taking in fry-ups, sandwiches/panini and a range of lunch dishes of the type you might find in a pub-grub menu. The prices are very competitive. I found the service brisk and cheerful. The food I ate was tasty enough and perfectly well made but unexciting, matching perfectly the down-to-Earth atmosphere of the cafe. If you are looking for no frills, competitively priced, reasonably tasty but modest food in an unpretentious environment (and sometimes I am , then this will be spot on. My only disappointment on the day was that, based on the location, I was anticipating something rather different. A solid average."

Friendly staff, ample parking, great quality breakfasts at reasonable prices and the coffee is good too. We’ve been several times with family/friends and never had a bad experience!

The Pump House is really good and worth paying the money for what they offer, my brother in Law and I come here most Sundays and just can not find any faults. The food, the staff and the place are all excellent. Keep up the great service

Always good in here. Arrived early and hung about for a bit waiting for the place to open at 10am. Service was quick and the food good. Could do with more space! Although that’s not their fault, it’s so good they have a lot of customers.

I cannot recommend this venue highly enough. I have oesophagus and can only eat soup. Nowhere I have been will puree soup for me until I got to the pump house. 100% gratitude to them, I can go out again with family and friends and enjoy smooth soup.

Popular csfe, particularly with locals and motorcyclists, breakfasts seem to be their stock in trade, though there's plenty other choice. Parking on site, toilet available, quick service and friendly waitresses. Unusual building with plenty of history.

Nice coffee and nice toasted sandwiches with side salad, very reasonably priced, my only criticism really is whilst sitting by the windows I noticed an awful lot of dust and cobwebs on the blinds and plastic plants on the shelves could really do with a deep clean to freshen the place up, won't stop me returning though nice place just in need of a little more attention to the fixtures and fittings.

WOW what a find. After being refused elsewhere we came across this lovely place, only a few minutes drive from the Premier Inn. We were a group of 19 and they accomodated with ease and a warm smile. Plentiful parking and lovely location. The food is excellent value for money, service was good and such a pleasant venue especially with all the little quotes on the walls. No one in the group complained about the food and we all commented how nice it was. Quite a few of us actually ordered food to take away with us and we will definitely visit again. Thank you

I was here 4 years ago and vowed I'd be back and I am. Not a lot has changed decor wise which is fine as it is in keeping with the atmosphere of the site. No frills, just honest to goodness well cooked and served food. Bye and large pretty well the same staff, real down to earth characters who have a great customer facing attitude. Nothing is trouble to them. Much wider menu than before with the value for money making this place stand out from much more established high street restaurants. My wife had a roll with sausage fried egg lovely large soft too, 2 sausages and sunny side up egg. A large crispy salad filled the plate. For me? I went for the chicken bacon toasted Club sandwich. 2 White...

"wow, what a jewel! my wife and I ate on Sunday afternoon on this “plum” of a restaurant. I was amazed to have studied the menu before booking to see that a very large of the dishes in the offer shown free as gluten, something that has now paramount recently been diagnosed with celiac disease. there was a free dish served by popcorn, which had been aromatized with its own wobble the flavor of the restaurant, which was a real tastener. we followed with the curry goat, which served as a generous part, reisbäsen, a part curry goat gravy, jerk ripen, plantain, homemade coleslaw, and fries, who had blown the same twist of hurdles as the popcorn on them. we also chose some of the immersing sauces to give an additional hauch of choking only for the case. we have the idea of ordering also a plastered steak (they know how it is when they are really hungry), but were recommended against this by the dame who advised our order that the portions were quite generous and we had ordered a lot, and moreover we could always add to the order when our food had arrived. we also ordered a bottle of pino grigio to ash it al down. What do you want me to say? this was by far the best tasting and well cooked and served Caribbean cuisine that we have experienced, it was exceptional. we had no place for a pudding, but there was a lot to choose on the menu. When the bill came, we were thrilled and amazed that it all came around 60, which also excellent price-performance ratio. we will definitely be back, I recommend this jewel. enjoys!"
