The Chubby Castor of the Fitzwilliam Arms

We thoroughly enjoyed dining in the restaurant- the food was gorgeous and it was enough to fill us up. Service was great with a good amount of check ins from the staff. Staff were good with allergens and extra requests.

We had the five course option and it was amazing. Plus it was the birthday of one of the guests and they brought out a small birthday cake. Service was excellent and tastes were interesting and varied.

Probably the best restaurant in the Peterborough area. High-end, Michelin standard food with excellent service levels. Obviously for this standard of food you must be prepared to pay a premium price, so don't go expecting a "cheap" meal. This is a high-end restaurant with exceptional food. We went for the 7 - course tasting menu which was outstanding. The atmosphere in the restaurant was formal but laid-back, just as a top end restaurant should be. The only minor negative would be their automatic adding of a “service charge” onto the bill. Customers should decide if a gratuity is deserved & not habitually taken by a restaurant, we are not in America. Overall a fantastic experience and we will be back in the future.

“Hidden Gem I stumbled upon this place through a simple Google search and wasn’t expecting much, but it turned out to be exceptional. We opted for the 2-course lunch, and every detail impressed us. The amuse-bouche was delightful, setting the tone for the meal. I chose the duck as my main course, and it was not only delicious but also generously portioned. If you find yourself near Oundle or Elton, this is definitely a spot worth stopping at for a memorable lunch. Highly recommended!”

We went for an option of "blind 5 course tasting menu". I was more than impressed with the diversity that we've received for 50£ per person. Plenty of high quality vegetables, and the olive muss was mind blowing. Recommend to pair it with a bottle of British pinot noir (recommended by a very helpful waiter). The atmosphere is really relaxing and calm, perfect for a family reunion.

Lovely food - will return for another special occasion. Enjoyed the tasting menu and the waitress kindly wrote it out for me. Expensive but well worth every penny for a special night

This is a team firing on all 8 cylinders. I booked 6 of us for Christmas Day lunch with the fabulous team at the Chubby, and what struck us all was the apparent ease with which the whole team coped with a full service on an important day. From top to bottom, they delivered a high quality and very creative experience delivered through a highly polished service, blending professional with good humour. Everyone was on point. My heartfelt thanks to the whole team for giving up their Christmas Day for our benefit.

We have been there a number of times and chose it again for a family celebration. The staff and the ambience are amazing. Usually the food is too. We selected the tasting menu We also chose the upsell on the menu and were not disappointed. Superb in fact. A couple of our group were smokers and by the time it came to the Baked Alaska course saw the Chef racing at high speed through the parking lot. They found it quite humorous until this course arrived. It sadly was inedible. We didn’t complain, although it was clear. Instead we continued to enjoy the incredible service. With the bill being in excess of £1200 for our indulgences would we go again? Yes. However, a subtle acknowledgment would have been gratefully received. Well done staff.
