House of Feasts
Boy can this guy cook – just ask Mary Berry or the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge! House of Feasts chef-patron Damian Wawrzyniak cooked for the royal couple on their five-day tour of Poland and Germany, and baked babka with Mary Berry on BBC Two.
At his restaurant, House of Feasts near Peterborough, Damian shows why BBC Good Food named him a Top 10 UK Food Pioneer by creating wonderful ingredient combinations and introducing diners to some of his Polish favourites. Expect sumptuous food elegantly presented using local produce and homegrown fruit and vegetables.
On our second visit for lunch, this time on a Sunday with a group of four, we were treated to some gems including a lovely aged beef tartare served with pickled mushrooms and red onions marinated in blackcurrants, and a traditional Polish smalec served with sourdough and pickles. Our mains included a succulent half of chicken, brined and roasted, and served with Fenland potatoes and Cambridgeshire vegetables. Then there was hake with black risotto, pecans and marinated green and yellow beans. Desserts were equally appealing, such as a beautifully cooked pear infused with orange peel and served with peanut powder, white chocolate creme and a dark chocolate tuile.
Damian’s new book, ‘I Am A Cook’, will be out shortly.
Visit House of Feasts once and you will keep going back for more!

Very beautiful restaurant and great service. The food was unbelievable (the duck was the best) and the chef is a very friendly. I give 5-stars because it is an amazing restaurant near the edges of Peterborough. I highly recommend this place.
Excellent food and great customer service makes you want to com back every time.
Creative and delicious food in a lovely setting. We can’t wait to return and would definitely recommend it!
Simply amazing, without doubt the best food I’ve tasted in years, lovely venue and extremely friendly staff, will be back very soon for more!
Been to House of Feasts several times and it was absolutely fantastic from start to finish! The staff were attentive to every need. The decor and layout is beautiful and a lovely garden area to dine on a sunny day. The food was out of this world it was a complete taste sensation that everyone should experience! I promise you you won’t regret it!!!
Now it was my third visit, its gets better and better!
We love idea of daily changeable menu.
We will be back!
House of Feasts is an amazing experience. Polish fusion with high end flavours and creative attention to culinary detail . Important to me is “ it’s all about the taste” and Chef Damian is a master craftsman.
The food gives you a taste of regional Poland produced using a combination of Polish/ English ingredients. I can tell you how good it is but you HAVE to try it for yourself . It’s Eye/ Peterborough’s best secret . Enjoy the experience!
Beautiful restaurant just outside Peterborough. I was just passing by and tried their lunch menu, lovely food and great decor.
I will recommend to friends.
We went to House of Feasts mainly because of friends recommendations and it did not disappoint at all, we have travelled from Surrey just to eat there! (WORTH IT!)
Damian & Klaudia creating perfect team, great touch to service and absolutely perfect culinary journey makes this place a Destination location and the best restaurant in Cambridgeshire.
We will be back with friends and hopefully Star or two will be on the wall!
We went to try House of Feasts mainly due to friends recommendations, we loved the food & ambience. Unusual flavours and completely new dishes became one of our favourites! Especially Smalec, Pierogi & Pork Knuckle were our favourites. Desserts were also very interested, my husband loved Pear with Surprise, which was packed with flavours.
We definitely will be back soon, this time with friends and family.
GREAT CULINARY EXPERIENCE!
