About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
The Gravel Pit Brasserie & Bar is situated in The Waterfront Hotel with mouthwatering views over the east lake to accompany our fantastic menu.

This site was once a large marsh, fed by the River Great Ouse, but in the 1950s gravel extraction created a series of small lakes and pools which survives today. The gravel was mainly used in road and industrial construction, but today the old gravel pits are home to an abundance of wildlife, flora and fauna; a magical place for all of us to enjoy.

Our restaurant is open 7 days a week, from 7am - 11pm, with last food orders at 9pm.

    Lovely setting by lake however large groups of rowdy drunk golfers spoilt the occasion. The food was very average - it all sounded much nicer on the menu compared to what was actually presented

    Food was ok, and in fairness steak was well cooked. Everything else was just ok. Service was sweet - music was so loud though that it meant we had to speak louder to get over it. But for the price- just not worth it at all. 20 quid pizza and 25 quid steaks these were absolutely not.

    You must feel proud of yourself for such great food. You've done a wonderful job. Perfectly balanced flavors, beautifully presented and cooked to perfection. The best birthday meal I've had in all my years 🤗🙌🏾

    The food was okay, nothing special. The service was poor, and did not merit the 12.5% service added. You don’t close the coffee machine at 9:30 when the restaurant is open till 11pm. You also don’t lay back the table when the guests are still eating their puddings. And the cost was very expensive for the quality delivered.

    A really lovely lunch sat overlooking the beautiful lake. The sun was bright and bathed the whole restaurant. Food was delicious, wholesome and very reasonably priced - perfect for lunchtime. Thought that the team were the perfect balance of caring and hands-on but not over the top.

    We went here for a quiet dinner date and it was definitely worth it! The service was amazing, table was served by Lewis and a young girl whose name we didn’t get but both were brilliant. Timing of service was great, wasn’t rushed at all but never felt like we were waiting for anything either. Restaurant was clean and spacious, we loved the little robot delivery from the kitchen to the bar! The food was on another level, we were very impressed. Great selection of food and drink. It’s been a good few years since I’ve been to the restaurant at Wyboston Lakes and it has changed so much in that time! Will definitely not be another few years before we return! 5 stars from us and a great evening, thank you!
