Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We chose The Plough because we wanted to meet up with our daughter, but not drive to London, so we wanted somewhere and hour`s drive away for all of us, half way. My wife needed a gluten/dairy free meal, and the staff were very obliging,...doing sausage/mash and vegetables. My roast beef meal was hot, tasty and good value for money. The pub itself was busy and had a lovely atmosphere, a "proper" pub. There was a good range of real ale, and I went for Titanic Brewery`s Plum Porter, which was very good. Will most certainly return.More

Our second visit to The Plough at Duxford. Again not disappointed, good food still at very reasonable prices, we also got 20% discount. Staff very attentive and friendly and food came piping hot.

We popped in for lunch in the way to Duxford War Museum. Great service from a very friendly employee. I feel that the food was slightly overpriced in my opinion. We had a salad, one burger and fries, one soft drink and one small alcoholic...one and no change from £30. Food was but not amazing.More

Came here with family recently for the first time and were thoroughly impressed. It was a nice day so we sat outside in the garden to eat our lunch. All staff were very friendly and attentive. The menu has so many options and the food...was of great quality. Really cannot complain, everything was 10/10. We will absolutely be returning.More

On entering noticed the good atmosphere .Ordered drinks and fish and chips for two , the staff were very pleasant and cheerful made us feel very welcome . The fish and chips didn’t disappoint they were hot fresh and tasted delicious. If I lived here...this pub would definitely be my local. The prices are very reasonable too.More

Had lunch with friends who recommended the pub, average main course and great desert. Chicken supreme turned up as a deep fried chicken leg, which was dry and a pot of gravy (random) when I questioned it I was told it was the cut of...meat and not to expect a sauce (chicken supreme can be a cut but it should be breast not deep fried leg), bubble and squeak was also random, mash and carrot (traditionally it would be pan fried with cabbage) but alas not today. On a positive note the crumble and custard was spot on , hey ho. I don’t expect culinary perfection from a pub , but I was looking forward to a nice lunch.More

We went here for lunch on a Friday. I had the fish and chips (Cod) , we also had the pie and two portions of the lasagne which came with two pieces of garlic bread and great chunky chips. Everything was superb, very tasty, homemade...and piping hot. My fish was enormous and one of the best I've had recently. We also went for the puddings, three syrup puddings and one apple crumble with custard. Again, everything was lovely. If you like beer they serve a great pint of Everards and always have three other beers on, very reasonably priced lunch and very friendly staff. Can't wait to go back.More

We traveled an hour to meet friends here (it was half-way between us!). Small and friendly pub. Cosy. Lovely staff and good food. Good beer too (Everards Tiger)! We may well make this a regular for our rendezvous’ in future. Recommended.

We met some friends halfway here and it was lovely. The staff were friendly and helpful, and although some items were missing off the menu, it was still great.

We called in for a meal after an air show at nearby IWM Duxford. The staff were very welcoming and we had a tasty meal and a nice glass of beer. The menu was not vast nor gourmet but it was tasty and offered good...value and the setting was cosy on a chilly evening. I would not hesitate to return if we’re in the area again. Very pleasant experience.More

What a little gem of a pub! Never been here before. Had lunch here last Saturday, chose the lamb shank which was very generous in size & really delicious..... so much so I nearly forgot to take a photograph!!! The staff were very welcoming, helpful...& friendly. Being able to watch the vintage aircraft flying over from Duxford Air Museum a stones throw away was an absolute bonus!!More

Obviously short staffed and very busy. Also probably means if they’re are that busy the service will be poor, so I myself would find another venue.
