The Wellington itself was the highlight of our visit – it exceeded our expectations!
We had a few starters and a swordfish as another main – they were good but probably not perfect, at least not on the same level as the Beef. The desserts were excellent!
I also want to highlight the impeccable service we received here – it was probably the most friendly and welcoming service we had in quite a while!
I would recommend this place and would come again but I wish they add a bit more finesse to other dishes as well for this place to step up and offer even better experience!
Modicum rare scallops. Fresh and juicy (no fishiness). A little salty but go well with the pee puree, which is mellow and sweet. As a mushy pea lover, it’s a big factor in my decision to take scallop instead of prawn.
Gnocchi surprisingly comes without sauce (or cheese), less fat I hope. Truffle is on the subtle side. Tomato is tangy and appetizing, interesting combination. Mushrooms are juicy but not slimy.
Decided to try the poached pear even if it means I’ll need a takeaway and will still have sugar rush when I try to finish my dissertation. Coconut icecream is really refreshing, light, not too sweet. The pear is delightfully confusing— pear shape, orange color, peach texture, saffron aroma.
I should have come earlier in the past four years. But until now it has been quite difficult to book 🙂 Glad I came. Hope my parents can enjoy the food and lovely wine list here someday.
Friendly and welcoming people actually. Looking forward to try the other starters and mains.
The owner was present and friendly – the waitress was efficient and happy to recommend menu items.
Overall a great lunch.
Cheers,

Service was excellent and fast. Our waiter was highly attentive and, impressively, even remembered our names.
We had all individually pre-ordered our dishes from the three-course menu. Despite the complex and diverse orders for a table of nine, the service was incredibly fast. While all dishes were delicious, the Beef Wellington was the absolute highlight. It was served as an individual portion, cooked exactly to perfection—truly a dream dish. They also offer an excellent, well-curated wine list.
Next time I’m in Cambridge, I will certainly choose The Oak Bistro again. Highly recommended!
The host is very charming and funny and made us instantly feel welcome, just like in a French countryside bistro.
The interior is very tastefully decorated (I loved the painting on the wall above our table!).
I ordered the Chargrilled Rib-Eye Steak with truffle butter and French Fries, with wilted spinach as a side, which was all cooked to perfection.
The Chocolate Fondant with Stracciatella ice cream for dessert (I know I shouldn’t have, but simply couldn’t resist – though no regrets whatsoever!) was absolutely to die for.
The main reason I had chosen this bistro was its proximity to the Catholic Church, as we had tickets to a concert, and I’m surely glad we did, as it turned out to be a fantastic choice!
Absolutely fantastic place.
