  1. Dining in the dome

    We had a lovely evening dining in the dome, made all the more special by our fantastic waiter – Harry- who was attentive, professional and fun. Food was great – we’ll definitely be back – Thankyou!

  2. Birthday Celebration

    We dined in the Dome which was a very lovely experience. We had very attentive staff who could’nt do more for us. They made us feel welcome and relaxed. It was a great intimate dining experience one which we will repeat. I was only disappointed with one thing and that was the crackling on the slow cooked belly pork. Heater failed once and James replaced it immediately. Thank you

  3. Done experience

    I have to say this was my second Dome experience and both times I have been disappointed with the food. Such a shame as the setting and service has been wonderful. There were very little choices and what we had was very bland. Like it had just been thrown together. As a group of 8 we had a lovely time but I don’t think any of us would return with current menu.

  4. Done dining for 25th Wedding Anniversary

    We had a lovely meal, it was a shame there were no burgers left which meant 3 of us had to have steak but it was lovely. Staff were very attentive & I loved the dome dining as was a special occasion.

  5. Dome

    A good experience – I will be back. Service was excellent but marked down because quite a few things on the menu were not available. Loved the dome experience!

  6. Fathers day

    the only issue we had was that they
    ran out of desserts x

  7. Service was brilliant- thank you for braving the weather to the domes! Food was lovely – recommend the trio of desserts. A wonderful treat having our own dome!

  8. If this is how food can be cooked, then it’s time to sell my kitchen! We had asparagus and scotch egg starter, followed by mussels and sea trout. Both amazing, the sea trout the best I’ve ever had. Then the puddings – fab icecream and the pudding trio (which we couldn’t finish). Add to that the amazing staff and you get a simply perfect night!

  9. We had an amazing day yesterday in the Diamond dome for a hen party We would love to say a massive thank you to James and Emily who were an abslute asset to you yesterday and made our day extra special they were just brilliant from the minute we arrived.
    They catered to all our needs.. helped with any requests and checked we had
    everything we needed all through the day they were both sweet and so good at
    helping make sure everything was just perfect.

  10. Fantastic Experience

    We had the most amazing experience
    in a beautiful dome! The atmosphere was great and the service was excellent!
    We will definitely be back! Thank you! I had the best bday!

  11. The whole Dome Dining experience is
    lovely, especially when it’s a beautiful day outside. The food portions could
    have been slightly larger but it was tasty…..especially the Sticky Toffee
    Pudding.

  12. A Memorable Anniversary Celebration

    Welcomed by the staff and they were
    really attentive throughout the night. So much so that they added a little
    touch to the dessert after we had a conversation with one member of staff
    saying we were there celebrating our anniversary. The pod was lovely, heater,
    Bluetooth speaker and blankets if wanted. The downside was that a couple of
    items on the menu had sold out by the time we sat down for our table (7.45pm)
    but plenty of choice to have a lovely meal nonetheless. Lovely experience and
    we would definitely come back again!

  13. Even in the rain it was amazing 🙂

    Amazing service!! We went to the domes at lunch time 🙂 lovely staff and great food!!

  14. A Perfect Evening!

    Thank you all so much for making mums 60th birthday a very enjoyable evening! You all go above and beyond. The meal was outstanding & the service was absolutely perfect! We can’t wait to visit again. Thank you all ladies x

  15. The Perfect Celebration

    Huge thank you to The Willow Tree for making our wedding
    celebration so special. We booked the Diamond Dome which is just perfect for
    a smaller intimate celebration. Food, service and ambiance was 5* as always.
    Would highly recommend The Willow Tree for weddings and all other
    celebrations

  16. A Memorable Dinner At The Pods

    Friendly cosy atmosphere, mouthwatering food, the pods are a
    must! The staff went above and beyond to make the evening special.

  17. A Delightful Experience!

    We came yesterday for my sisters 40th birthday for wonderland afternoon tea we where blown away with how lovely it all looked and tasted there was plenty of food and a lovely selection the detail to decoration was great it really set the theme all staff lovely and friendly will definitely be visiting again thank you very much

  18. Amazing evening celebrating our daughter's 18th birthday.

    Staff were friendly and attentive. Food was delicious and beautifully
    presented. Our daughter was blown away with the dome dining experience and
    made her special day and evening to remember. Thank you

  19. Had such a great evening at the willow tree,setting was perfect,service was top class,food excellent and the cocktails were brilliant also…Will definitely go again

  20. The dome was so amazing , I enjoyed every moment I spent there,from the environment to staff to the food , it was so amazing, it is and unforgettable experience and I would like to visit some other time

  21. The domes are beautiful and we had a lovely time, but the button
    to call service didn’t seem to work, it took us a very long time to order,
    and we ran out of time for desert! We will be coming back, if only for
    risotto 🙂

  22. We had the best meal at the Willow tree 🙂 Everyone in our party
    explained how this was the best meal we’d had for years. The food was 10/10.
    The ambience couldn’t of been any better. The service was impeccable! The
    food came so quickly. We dined in the dome and expected our food to be
    slightly cold, however it was piping hot!!! The evening couldnt of been any
    better!
    We will 100% be returning

  23. The dome was a perfect setting for a get together of all friends. The serving staff were incredibly attentive and helpful, with all the food produced to a high standard.

  24. It was a perfect wrap up to a wedding week. Beautiful ambience and perfect staff.. will be back!!

  25. Great evening in the Dome for my husbands birthday. Staff were
    very attentive and efficient. The Dyson heater kept it at just the right
    temperature. Food was very good perhaps a tad expensive but we knew this
    before attending. Would recommend

  26. Lovely NYE everything was great. Thank you. Magician was excellent. Only improvement suggestion is to have better path to the igloos when it’s wet it was a bit muddy and dark.

  27. went on 31st December 2022, we were shown to our pod and it was beautiful. Could not fault anything. A little pricey but for the experience it was worth it. Can’t wait to go again

  28. Always such a great place to eat. The Ambience of the domes is
    lovely of an evening. Shaina has a great eye!

  29. Fantastic venue.

    Staff excellent, really went the extra mile.
    Love the pod, made my son’s 30th very special.

  30. A lovely evening in an unusual setting!

    Great food, attentive service.

  31. Would definitely recommend

    Was a very good night. The meal was very good even if a little overpriced. But overall no complaints.

  32. Thank you!

    We booked for a special dinner with Aunty visiting from Italy and a toddler.
    The dinner was perfect, we loved the relaxed and cosy atmosphere of our boho dome.
    Our server Cecilia was very attentive and made every effort to make our evening enjoyable.

  33. We had a fab evening

    Service was excellent. Lovely girls a credit to you. Thanks so much.

  34. I recommend!

    Lovely decor inside & a great experience & evening dining in the pods. Great service & ambience. A little expensive in comparison to other similar restaurants but a very unique & worthwhile experience in the pods at night

  35. Worth the price

    Our first time at The Willow Tree. Atmosphere was really special but felt food choices were a bit limited. Using serving domes to carry food down the garden would make sure our meals were nice & hot & add to the experience. 10% service charge was fair as all the staff were friendly, polite & helpful.

  36. Everything was superb.

  37. Absolutely fantastic

    I can’t recommend this place highly enough. The food was so fresh and delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive. The ambience in the dome pods was well worth the price as you can play your own music and have the warmth of the heater. Great little gem tucked away in Bourne.

  38. Would just like to say what an amazing experience we had at the willow tree’s dome dining. Staff were polite, friendly and efficient. Our food was lovely we had three courses and no complaints from us. Was presented well and the fries were the best we’ve had in a long time. Thank you so much for making our first wedding anniversary so special, the dome dining does have the most romantic feel to it and we cannot wait to return!!

  39. Perfect

    Perfect, great layout, love to see the owner is a fan of Alice in Wonderland just from walking in th

  40. Had the most amazing night here!

    I booked the Boho Dome for me and my friend, for her birthday and couldn’t of complained about anything if we tried!
    Stunning garden, Amazing service, delicious food, well made cocktails, and I
    loved the little touches, like the wireless speaker given to us to play our
    own music!
    Will definitely be telling everyone about this place and will be coming back!

  41. Couldn’t recommend enough!

    I booked a dome for my husband’s birthday and it was an absolutely incredible experience. We were made to feel very welcome and staff couldn’t do enough. A beautiful setting with a wonderful country feel.

  42. a lovely place to go

    It was a surprise for a friend to have dinner in one of the Domes. We had a lovely waitress and the food was fantastic. Couldn’t fault the evening. Everyone was friendly and it is a lovely place to go

  43. Boho Dome

    Visited on 3rd August 22. Had a very pleasant evening out in the Boho Dome. Waiting staff were attentive and food was well executed.

  44. Something Different

    fantastic experience, something different and great that you are keeping the domes going.

  45. Fantastic

    It was fantastic, the food was delicious.
    Our waitress Freya was brilliant, very knowledgeable and friendly.

  46. Highly recommend

    We loved the Dome was lovely and warm just a beautiful
    experience especially when it was dark with all the lights, quite magical

  47. 1st class experience

    My thoughts on the food was that it was over engineered and that a more straight forward menu would be welcome. Dining in the pod was a 1st class experience which I would certainly repeat. Tom our waiter was brilliant.

  48. Left in a rush

    The food was fantastic and it is a brilliant venue, however the staff very clearly were in a hurry to leave and locked up within 2minutes of us leaving without waiting to see if we had safely left the venue. It would be appreciated to double check customers had taxis and had continued on their journeys before leaving, especially considering the remote location of the pub.

  49. had a lovely romantic anniversary meal … very well looked after … we did wish we were given more than one tapas dish at a time …

  50. We would certainly come back

    We had a lovely evening dining in our dome. The attention and service was excellent, as was the food. What I particularly liked was being able to eat out at a restaurant…
    • without being subjected to piped music
    • being able to hear all of the conversation at our table of five
    • having the choice to play some music that we like at a volume that suits us with the Bluetooth speaker provided
    • able to regulate the temperature in the dome to suit

  51. Amazing culinary and magical experience in the dome

    We had a wonderful experience in a beautiful location with amazing food. The domes are really something special giving you a real intimate and exclusive evening. Staff where more than helpful and very precise but at the same time discreet. Amazing menu and fantastic quality food. The only down side for me personally was the wine list. I expected more particular and special wines from this location.

  52. A bit short

    Would be nicer to have the dome slightly longer

  53. We had such a fantastic time

    The staff couldn’t have been more helpful or sweeter. Would definitely recommend a pod as a fun alternative.

  54. Thoroughly recommend

    Absolutely amazing, food was delicious, the setting was
    beautiful with twinkle lights everywhere. Pods were clean and the staff were
    so polite, friendly and helpful with food choices and chatting. Magic with
    Lee Smith was mind blowing up close and personal. Would thoroughly recommend and I will be going back very soon.

  55. Very good service

    Enjoyed our first trip into a pod….it was fun…children loved
    the swing.

  56. Perfect evening thank you

    Second visit to the magical willow tree..despite pouring rain, the ambience in our own dome was magical and service by the smiley Freya was exceptional!
    The thai mussel broth was full of flavours,really delicious.
    Food was beautifully presented,hot and full of taste.

  57. Absolutely gorgeous

    Had a lovely valentine’s meal in one of the garden pods, staff were very efficient and polite and the meal was absolutely gorgeous, would highly recommend for that special intimate dinner.

  58. The food was delicious and the service was amazing

    We booked one of the lovely garden pods for our 7 year anniversary and it was truly amazing. The pods are super romantic, they are heated and you get wireless speakers to play your own music. We went during the week, so it was really quiet, which we also really enjoyed. I can really recommend booking the pods for a special occasion.

  59. Disappointing

    The look of the dome dining is so lovely and warm. Unfortunately, the service was very slow and in a 3 1/2hour meal we only had 2 drinks each. It was slightly raining which of course is not the fault of the staff but having cold wet food brought to us was very unpleasant. Some kind of system to attract staff attention and covers for food would be better. We were celebrating a birthday so it was disappointing for it to not be better.

  60. Brilliant!

    Highly recommend booking one of the Domes, it was a great experience and we had such a great time. Will definitely be going back.

  61. A very special evening

    The staff couldn’t have done more to make us happy. They were accommodating ( we had a few specific requirements) and the food and service was impeccable. Thoroughly recommend giving this a visit as the ambience and gorgeous styling makes it a very special evening. Thank you so much .

  62. Bliss in the time of Covid

    An absolutely magical evening. Cosy, beautiful, just us and the fantastic food and perfect service. We will definitely return to this lovely venue.

  63. Magical setting, but...

    Gorgeous crispy duck salad, but grossly underdone puff pastry around beef Wellington (you can’t do that to a £38 dish!) in a magical setting.

  64. SPECIAL!

    Q=How was the willow tree? Best way to describe our experience is SPECIAL!!! Our daughters 16th bday meal was so amazing in the dome that nothing else would compare. The place was breathtaking & gave us an overwhelming feeling. friendly staff that went out of their way to help us get my son comfortable as he had recent knee surgery so is in full traction. The food was lovely, but the ambience set in each dome has left us with a an evening that will never be forgotten,an absolutely priceless memory. We will be going regularly now we have found this Gem!

  65. A magical evening out.

    We had a wonderful evening Dome- Dining the other evening at The Willow Tree. The venue is beautifully decorated and the Dome fairy lights are just beautiful. The Domes are well heated but with enough ventilation. The venue operators were incredibly helpful in organising disabled parking and giving us a Dome close to the car park. They were very Covid protection attentive and we felt very safe. The meal was superb, the new chef Steven Saunders has done a brilliant job with the menu. His crispy duck salad starter is wonderful, it was one of his signature dishes from his days as head chef at The Pink Geranium at Melbourne. The beef was beautifully cooked and the treacle tart was scrumptious . The range of non alcoholic mocktails was very enticing, to the extent that two of our party chose these instead of alcohol; the prosecco and rose was wonderful. The staff were very attentive and the service was great. We enjoyed the opportunity for our guests to re acquaint with the chef after many years. it was a magical meal out, the first for us in Cambridge since the beginning of the pandemic. We will certainly be returning. Thank you for making our evening so special.

  66. Unforgetable experience!

    We had an absolutely Wonderful dinner in a Dome. The Staff were super attentive (thank you Freya and the team!).
    The food and the presentation were excellent.

  67. Excellent

    Absolutely lovely,food excellent,service excellent,the domes just made our evening very special,would definatley recommend

  68. Wonderful Atmosphere

    Really lovely time, there were a few nuances with our food order but the service and ambience certainly made up for it

  69. Recommended

    We dont get out a huge amount with two young children however we
    had the best time. It felt so relaxed, the boys loved the dome and the swing
    and the weather was fantastic.

  70. Thoroughly recommend

    Beautiful pub and gorgeous domes, with super friendly and helpful staff, and absolutely delicious food.

  71. Enjoyable Experience

    Open friendly young staff who looked after us well. Dome clean and cosy in a cool wind outside. Food tasty and well cooked.

  72. The pod was great

    Lovely atmosphere and good service but food was nit the best I have tasted and welcome a bit of a let down.

  73. Nice staff, but very busy

    I booked a dome for my husband’s birthday. The food and setting was lovely however the service was lacking unfortunately. Waiting staff were very pleasant but it felt almost as if we had been forgotten. Drinks order took a long time to arrive and we were told it was because the bar was really busy. As I say the staff were very nice and food was great however I feel the service could have been better

  74. Beautiful outside venue

    The geometric pods are a really unique feature for an evening meal. Small detail such as bespoke lighting design and a Bluetooth speaker made available are really well thought out additional touches to dining in the pods. Staff are really helpful and prompt without interfering. Food was delicious. Thank you for a lovely evening.

  75. Strong recommendation

    It was a magic feeling and we loved our food and service were
    brilliant! Strong recommendation for special occasions!

  76. A mixed Bag

    The food was average
    The waitress was fabulous
    The pod was great and the round table was great. The chairs were not good and gravel underfoot was not the best .

  77. Definitely be coming again

    I didn’t recall seeing anywhere ref pizzas not being available
    in the week however when we asked for a child’s menu option to be made into
    adults it was no problem at all. Lovely staff and great atmosphere.

  78. Ambience was better than expected

    The Ambience was better than expected, service was really good
    and food excellent. Would recommend

  79. The dome was great

    in a dome – neat, quiet, warm enough when the door was zipped up;
    slow service because new waiter tripped so had to wait for a re-cook;
    but free drinks and apologetic attitude made amends;

  80. Some minor issues

    Unfortunately on the Sunday we went the restaurant had run out
    of beef and some side dishes. Ran out of bitter on the tap and were selling
    33cl tins of IPA for £5 – they did amend the bill though. And apart from
    forgetting one of our starters and a main course side dish it was a very
    nice lunch. The pod set up they have created is ideal for families or small
    groups of friends.

  81. Excellent overall

    The food was generally excellent, though the truffle Mac and
    cheese was under seasoned.

  82. We enjoyed ourselves

    We really enjoyed the dinner at dome. The atmosphere was fantastic, the staff smiling and very attentive, the food was very good. Thank you! Anna & Chris

  83. Pods worked brilliantly

    So lovely to be able to finally go out for dinner! Pods worked brilliantly. A great evening

  84. Well done

    We had a lovely birthday evening with excellent service and menu.

  85. We will be visiting again

    I booked as part of my husband’s 50th birthday celebrations after having seen some photos on social media. We didn’t know what to expect but we’re very pleasantly surprised by the wonderfully atmospheric and romantic ambience, the excellent menu and the quality of the food. We will definitely be visiting again as all the staff were so lovely and helpful, friendly and kind.

  86. Fabulous dining

    Amazing experience, and such a nice way to dine outdoors!

  87. Will arrange another visit

    Thoroughly enjoyed the experience and will certainly arrange another visit

  88. Excellent

    Thoroughly enjoyed our meal in the warm dome – food and service was excellent

  89. A magical evening, thank you all

    I took my partner here last night for a belated birthday meal in a dome. It’s an absolutely beautiful place, well laid out and a bit quirky. The domes are lit and heated so even after the sun set it was still cosy.

    Our food was stunning – every course was perfectly cooked and presented and felt like a real treat. For me it was the staff that made it extra special. It was pretty busy last night and they have a large outside space to cover, but we were so well looked after all evening. Everyone was upbeat, friendly and welcoming. One lovely lady even offered to take our picture which especially considering how busy they were, was above and beyond and so thoughtful.

    Thanks to all for a wonderful evening, we will definitely be back.

  90. Very impressed

    The food was delicious paired with a range of lovely cocktails. Particularly enjoyed the ambience, the sun was shining and the dome was comfortable and cosy throughout the evening. The service was amazing, the team was very attentive to any requests and food was served within a short space of time. Very impressed – would recommend for a romantic evening or a family dinner! Everyone enjoyed their evening.

  91. Amazing experience

    The Dome made all the difference – there was no wind chill,
    more privacy and superb Covid-awareness.

  92. Amazing birthday

    It was my first time there and we were celebrating one of my daughters belaed birthday, it was everything I could have hoped for and more. Thank you

  93. Really enjoyed our visit to dineatthedome.

    The service was extremely good. After returning the burger as it was underdone and cold, 2nd one was delicious and other dishes were beautiful too. Thanks for a lovely meal. Perhaps a little background music would be nice.

  94. Great experience!

    Wonderful (vegan) meal at The Willow Tree in garden dome, great
    service and great experience!

  95. Well done

    Lovely perfect under very difficult circumstances
    Well done

  96. We will be back

    A brilliant and unforgettable experience. Everything was excellent, including a sunny day, for our Sunday lunch dome experience. Thanks to all the staff at the Willow for allowing it to happen. We will be back.

  97. Enjoyed our evening

    Food was amazing, staff were lovely and polite. Very relaxed too! We really enjoyed our evening

  98. A real treat!!

    Very good all did well to make it lovely.
    A real treat!!

  99. Will definitely come back

    Very well done to build and services the ‘Dome’ in such difficult circumstances. Will definitely come back. Many thanks

  100. Great experience

    We had a lovely night at the willow tree. I had hired a dome
    for my partners 30th birthday. Service was great and the dome was
    beautiful. The only complaint I have was that myself and my partner ordered
    the lobster and crayfish pasta and it was literally just a bowl of pasta. I
    know lobster is expensive however I found two tiny bits of lobster and a
    few little bits of crayfish. We were both disappointed with it considering
    it was £28. Other than this the whole experience with great

  101. We can't wait to go back.

    We went for lunch in one of the domes, our waitress (Racheal) I think her name was, she was very friendly attentive and very sweet. The food was amazing. We can’t wait to go back.

  102. Recommend

    We were celebrating a birthday and wanted to try somewhere
    different. The Willow Tree certainly didn’t disappoint. Will definitely
    visit again and certainly recommend to friends and family. Thanks very much
    for a great evening.

  103. Great service

    The food was expensive for what we received but the actual
    service and ambiance was amazing!!

  104. Special birthday

    We were celebrating a special birthday and enjoyed the Dome very much. We then moved into the bar. Everything felt very safe. All staff we had contact with were lovely. Would reccommend to friends.

  105. Looking forward to our next visit

    We really enjoyed our evening at The Willow Tree in the Igloo and looking forward to our next visit.

  106. Brilliant

    Brilliant service and great experience in the dining domes. Would highly recommend.

  107. Lovely Experience

    We had a lovely dinner in a dome for my mother’s birthday. All in all a lovely experience.

  108. Worth the wait

    We booked the dome. We had a long wait for our food but as an apology our drinks were taken off our bill. The food was incredible and definitely worth the wait.

  109. It was a great experience

    We dined in one of the domes for a wedding anniversary meal, as we have a vulnerable baby at home so wanted to be extra safe. The dome was very warm and we felt so safe and away from everyone else. The waitress only came in the dome to take our orders and was out again. They are aired out between guests and wiped down from the inside too. The food and service was excellent too. We had lunch there. The pizza was delicious. We got 3 starters as I read the portion sizes were small. However, this was not the case. The pork starter is pretty decent so by the time my pizza arrived I could only manage 2 slices and took the rest to go. I was also able to order dessert to go. It was a great experience. I would highly recommend it.

  110. Lovely anniversary

    Really loved the idea of having dinner in a dome, it was our wedding anniversary and I wanted something different and it certainly was, great service and lovely food, thank you

  111. A brilliant evening

    A brilliant evening. Loved the dome. Excellent service, excellent food. We’ll be back soon.

  112. Excellent experience

    Everything was excellent from the greeting to the service and food and the wonderful ambience of the dome experience. First rate job!

  113. We had a very special night

    We had a very special night celebrating my daughters birthday – I think was a magical setting with delicious food – thank you Willow tree , we will be back x

  114. Thank you for a wonderful lunch

    We used the Dome dinning and really enjoyed the experience and food. Everyone found something they liked and I will go again , maybe in the evening this time.

  115. High recommend!

    The pods are such an amazing idea. We will be back, especially now you have added heating!! Amazing atmosphere, friendly staff, delicious food!

  116. Lovely!

    Loved our experience in the dome. Staff all very friendly. Burger tasty.

  117. Not long enough

    My only point is that the time allocation slot was not long
    enough. We were rushed at the end to vacate dome. When I booked it was two
    and half hours I believe.

  118. Great place

    Lovely place, evenings are very nice with the lights. The staff was great.

  119. Overall it’s a lovely experience

    It’s a really nice idea to have the domes and the staff were
    really friendly. I think the process from being shown to the dome to having
    to awkwardly open the zip doors could do with some tweaking. Lights down
    the dark path would help, perhaps sealed, covered trays for the food to
    keep it warm and secure. Just a couple of things to make it more relaxing.

    Food was nice and the kid’s meals were great.

  120. We celebrated my mums 60th in one of the domes. It was a lovely and unique experience. My husband and brother felt the portion sizes could have been bigger as they both still felt hungry after their main (one had chicken roast and the other burger and chips) but the food was tasty.
    Covid guidelines were very robust with staff wearing masks and gloves and cleaning surfaces regularly.

  121. 👍

    A lovely dinner in a dome. Thank you.

  122. Great and different experience eating in the dome. I enjoyed it.

  123. Recommended both for lunches and evenings

    Amazing service, they went above and beyond for us for the dome dining, which was delicious so would definitely recommend. The domes were lovely even for a lunch in the daytime!

  124. Unbelievable experience!

    I took my Grandma for lunch in one of the domes as it seemed like such a new and unbelievable experience! The wait staff were amazing! We had a few tend to us and they all greeted us with the loveliest attitudes! Everyone is so welcoming and it’s such a lovely environment!

  131. The perfect place for a celebration or a romantic dinner

    I decided to book the dome for my friends 40th and I am pleased to say that we were not disappointed. The domes were beautiful at night, they lit up and it was lovely. The service was brilliant, the waiters all had masks and they never once entered the dome due to covid – 19. The food was really good and we all had the best time. The perfect place for a celebration or a romantic dinner. Will definitely be booking again.
