We were seated right away and the service was quick and attentive. The buffalo and CBH wings were great and so was the CBH Mac and cheese. The personal pizzas are also tasty and good sized. Overall it was a great dining experience

Cambridge is one of my favorite places to watch a football game or at least half of it in the fall. It is also one of my most favorite places to enjoy a summer night out on the deck. Inventive menu, warm efficient servers.

Awesome Selection of Craft Beers.
Very friendly bartender. Nice ambiance. Clean. Great menu selection. The Brewer Penne with andouille sausage, chicken breast with penne pasta in white cream sauce was fantastic. Garlic toast would have been a nice addition. The Tomato Florentine pizza was very good. Tons of leftovers for one. Looking to repeat. Easy access and ample parking.

Great place to hang with friends and grab a beer or cocktail. Great beer selection for the beer snob type. I love their food.
Service/servers are not in a rush, their typical crowd is squatters so don't come if you're in a hurry.

Restaurants like this make me truly upset because they waste my hard earned money and time for an experience that is less than sub par. Forget the aging decor, forget the peeling deck, forget that part of my order was wrong, that's not why I eat out.

Let's start with the beer, I had a hefeweizen which was completely unrecognizable for the style and just plain horrible. If I can go buy 10 different hefeweizens at the store that are infinitely better than the swill you're brewing then you have a problem.

As for the food, I made the mistake of being adventurous and ordering an impossible burger. It was almost inedible with an odd aftertaste. The cook might not be to blame because they don't make them, but it shouldn't be on the darn menu. The side I received I spit out, it was rotten cole slaw. We also had an order of wings, which were the worst I've ever had period. No redeeming qualities on flavor, texture, anything. I took one bite and sent them back. All the fried food, arguably the hardest to mess up, was passable, but hardly unique.

I see very little in redeeming qualities about this place. They need to rip the menu to shreds and focus on select items done well. If the owner spent more time worrying about the food than he/she did about the comments on google, it might be for the better.

I understand that Granby isn't the cultural capital of the world, but there are plenty of local places that rival this and actually deserve your money.

Went there for a special birthday celebration. Food was delicious- great mixed greens salad. Very friendly ,cheerful waitresses. Wide variety of different craft and iPads beers, live music downstairs in the lounge.

We were looking for a place to get wings and found The Cambridge House on Google. I rate restaurants on their food, their service, their atmosphere and their cleanliness. Their food selection was great and their food tasted really good. Not the best chicken wings I've ever had but definitely above-average. I would definitely recommend them for their chicken wings. I give them four out of five stars on food. Their service was the one thing that we left a little to be desired. The waitress did not spend much time at our table and would not come back very often. I'd say service was a three out of five. About average. Their atmosphere was great. we sat outside on a very nice day and it was a very calm and relaxing atmosphere. Atmosphere would be a 4 out of 5. lastly would be cleanliness and I would give him a 5 out of 5 simply because I did not remember seeing one thing that was dirty. I noticed the waitresses cleaned every table after every customer. So final score would be a 4 out of 5. We will definitely be coming back. also their beer selection was great so if I had to write them on their beer selection I would give them a 5 out of 5. Most breweries I go to have semi good beer but there's was actually very good.

Got the buffalo chicken wrap....chicken smelled like fish (old) and when you bit into it it was as tender as
a rubber ball(microwaved)I have never in 40 years complained about my food but this was terrible. To top it off the waitresses never apologized and made it sound like it was our fault....shame on you the wait staff, cook ( and I use that term loosely) owner. I am a successful business owner and if I was the owner this was embarrassing.

We went to CHB to check out the beer menu and have lunch. Beer sampler was good ( but both of us figured out we don't like IPAs) the other 3 beers were very good I settled in to a nice burger my friend got fish and chips (fish was slightly over done but my friend said it tasted to good to send back) I had a stuffed burger cook to perfection and a side of sweet potato fries. I'd go back for sure

Very disappointed in the service...We had to get up and get our own waters twice! Our sour cream fell on the floor and she never came back with a new one. The sign walking in said $4.50 wings DAILY SPECIAL I was charge $7 when I ordered my food I pointed to the sign and said I wanted the wing special when I got the bill she argued with me and said it doesn't start till 4! Then why didn't you tell me that when I ordered! !! Thanks for the horrible service I will make sure I tell all my friends and family!

Always loved this bar in the old days - the atmosphere is great - but the food has gone way downhill. My husband's fried chicken sandwich looked pretty good but my chicken quesadilla was awful - the "grilled chicken" had no flavor it was a plain chicken breast cooked and cut up and thrown in the quesadilla - no flavor and chicken didn't have a grilled taste at all. The salsa is also much worse - not really salsa a bunch of chopped up onions and tomatoes with no liquid. This was always one of my favorite things to get before but now it's simply awful. Hope they can revamp their food and make it good again because this place is a great spot.

This review was written after our fifth time here. Always great food and friendly service. I've usually ordered burgers here and they're always delicious and cooked right. I'm not a beer person, but the mixed drinks are made well and have been consistent over the several years I've been coming here. We'll definitely be back.

Great place for good beer and food. All beers are home brews. If your looking for a Bud, you won't find any there...Jenny, Vichi, Michelle and Dawn will make sure you'll have fun if you sit at the bar. Staff is always friendly and smiling. The deck is nice if you want to have fun in the sun. Weekends usually have a band. If your out of town and looking for a friendly brewhouse check it out.

This place knows how to make good beer and combines it with great service, good food, and a nice rotating list of guest taps to supplement their own beers. My favorites were the Kolsch and Vienna Lager, both of which are among the best I've had.

There are a few different rooms; one focused dining area, one high top bar area, and an outside patio/deck. Nice place to stop and grab some pub grub and a couple of beers.

This place was great. The beer was fantastic and I'm bad about straying from my usual. The ESB is perfect! The bartender is personable and super nice. Overall great experience and a very well put together place

The food was very good. Good beer. Decent service. Worth a stop if it's on your way to wherever your going but I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way just to come here. Overall though it's a very good experience.

We enjoyed an excellent fish fry (pleasantly served by Stephen) at the CBH restaurant/brewery in Granby. All the specialty beers were posted on the blackboard. We also toured the mini-brewery and learned how they do their magic . The atmosphere is friendly, good crowd at 2pm Saturday, reasonably priced, interesting variety of dishes and a thoroughly enjoyable experience!

Got the black bean burger....was literally a Morningstar frozen patty that they managed to burn. Ate a quarter of it and they wouldn't remove it from the bill. fiances Reuben had about a quarter inch of corned beef. More kraut than anything. Don't recommended. PS, beers were eh.

This is a community place where locals go to hang out and have a drink and have a bite to eat. Service is very attentive and helpful. Attending an event there, we had a nice time and ordered calamari, fish and chips and a suggested order of chicken parmesan.

Eating there years ago for the first time, we all ordered burgers then noticed everyone else was getting fish and chips that looked spectacular. I don't think this was the same recipe or fish, but still decent. The dinner item is served with house fried potato chips that are thick and very crunchy.

My partner said his chicken parmesan served on shells was good but the sauce was just tomato with no detectable seasoning. Calamari was fair, but again, for my readers, we eat a lot of this dish which gives us a vast landscape in terms of reviewing this appetizer.

Full bar in that they actually had Myers rum. Most CT restaurants and bars just have three rums to offer patrons: Bacardi, Malibu and Captain Morgan's spiced. I manage with the Bacardi, as having more than one Malibu is not possible as it's too sweet, and Captain Morgan's is my least favorite rum made. Good for young or unsophisticated palates. It's always tasted to me like the free pink gum that used to or still comes with baseball cards.

A large and airy space with a lot of seating, big bar and multiple television screens for viewing. Outdoor seating for warmer weather.
