Me and my husband went to the jester a few years back and I wasn't overly impressed. The bar staff were rude and the menu only offered pizza and pasta! Wow what a difrence! We went again for a family meal and was blown away at how different it is. the food (ham hock and the stuffed chicken) were fantastic... More

Travelled some distance to eat at this restaurant after finding their website online and being impressed. Arrived at the Jester with my partner and were greeted immediately by a male waiter (?) who said we could choose a table anywhere and he would be over shortly with menus. Ordered starters - no problem, grilled prawns and baked brie - simple... More

Stayed here recently with family for a nearby wedding, this was not my choice but due to price, location and availability it made sense. My choice would have been the Holiday Inn Express about 12 miles further up the road since it is a more predictable experience and in this case, cheaper. And i think this is what The Jester... More

Booked this hotel quickly to attend a meeting at Royston Industrial Estate in Sept 2011. Good hotel, well appointed. Train noise not as intrusive as some would have you believe. Didn't eat dinner there as I arrived too late but manageress, who seemed East European and was very good, sorted out a snack. Next morning breakfast was good but staff... More

As a result, we now have a number of good friends that live locally, and go back often to spend time with them, always spending time at the "J". Brian and Maggie have recently returned... More

Since our wedding we have been regular customers and enjoyed every visit. We went a couple of weeks ago and was greeted well by Anthea (who served... More

A group of 12 of us stayed at the Jester last June. We attended a wedding a few miles away from the Jester, so the location was very handy for us. The rooms are simple and a bit dated but certainly did the job - a place to rest our heads for the night. For the price, the hotel was... More

We've always enjoyed lovely, mid-week, evening meals here - the food is great and the service and environment is friendly, never rushed, never forgotten.....but then something happens during the weekend and all relaxed, friendliness is replaced with a strange distant, "really rather you hadn't ruined our weekend approach to customers". Sunday Lunch wasn't a good experience; which we didn't expect... More
