Popped in last night, the live singer was a lovely surprise. Food was solid, and they&rsquo;re dog-friendly which is great. The wine list had some interesting local options, went with a glass of red that paired nicely with the steak. A good spot for a relaxed evening.

The pizza was piping hot, just out of the oven. Plenty of toppings on every slice, really generous. A nice step up from the bigger chain places.

Hidden gem in Cambridge. Portions are generous for the price. The staff really know their stuff. Had the lamb shank, and the chef&#39;s recommendation for a full-bodied red to go with it was spot on. Made a good meal even better.

Tried the sweet potato fries, definitely worth the extra quid. Portions are generous, salad was fresh. Staff were friendly, no complaints. Solid spot for a quick bite.

The rhubarb cake was super fresh, and the cappuccino was a nice surprise &ndash; really smooth.

Great spot for a quick lunch. The chicken katsu curry came out fast and hit the spot. The place is bigger than it looks from the outside, which is handy when you&#39;re in a rush. Fish tank&#39;s a nice touch.

Been coming here for years. The pistachio kulfi and mango pickle are always spot on. It&#39;s that consistent finish that keeps me coming back.

A lovely Sunday lunch. The wine list had some interesting local options that paired well with the roast. Staff were very friendly, and they even gave my daughter a student discount.

Raf was so welcoming, really made us feel at home. The tables were spotless, and I tried the lamb tagine for the first time - perfectly spiced and fell right off the bone. A lovely spot for a relaxed dinner.

Lewis was really nice about us showing up a bit late. He didn&#39;t make a fuss at all, just got us seated and sorted. Felt like we were expected, not an inconvenience. That kind of welcome goes a long way.

Nice spot for a lazy afternoon. Big windows let in loads of light, feels relaxed but still a bit smart. Had a pot of tea and a scone here, just what I needed.

The pastries are lovely and the coffee is very good. A nice spot to stop while exploring Cambridge.

The sausage rolls are delicious, and I really liked how they presented the coffee. It&#39;s a nice place for a quick, satisfying bite. The staff were friendly and the seating was comfortable, which made it a very relaxed stop.

Great spot for live music. The band last night had a nice, relaxed set that fit the pub&#39;s vibe perfectly. Not too loud, just right for a pint and a chat.

Been coming here for years. The coffee&#39;s always spot on, and that chocolate croissant is the reason I keep coming back. It&#39;s just a solid, reliable spot for my morning routine.

Been coming here for years. The outside seating is perfect for a quiet pint after work, always seems to have a spot free even on sunny days. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

No. 4 of Bars in Cambridge

Lunch was nice. The staff were genuinely friendly, which made the whole thing feel relaxed. I liked the vibe - it was just a good place to be for a bit.

The rooftop bar offers stunning views of Cambridge, making it a perfect spot for a special occasion or a relaxing evening.

Ordering&#39;s on an app, but the staff were really sweet about helping us figure it out. Food was hot and tasty, perfect for a casual catch-up.

The landlord and bar manager are brilliant, really welcoming. The beers are top-notch and it&#39;s a very popular spot on a Sunday evening.

A proper British pub experience. The history here is genuine, you can feel it in the atmosphere.

Even on a packed Friday night, the staff were so on it. Our big sharing platter arrived super quick, and everything was spot on. Perfect for catching up with the girls without waiting forever.

The bang bang cauliflower is so good, I&#39;m still thinking about it. Perfectly crispy with that spicy-sweet sauce. Giancarlo was lovely, but honestly, the cauliflower stole the show.

The staff were so nice to our big group! They kept checking in without being annoying. The menu even marks how spicy each dish is - saved us from ordering something too hot for my friend. 😅

We&#39;ve been a few times now, and it&#39;s always reliably good. The food is tasty and reasonably priced, which is why we keep returning. It&#39;s just a comfortable, easy spot for a meal.

The pies are consistently decent, with a nice flavour and texture. The mash is pretty good too, and the liquor has a natural colour. A solid choice for a simple, filling meal.

Had a lovely, relaxed meal here. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for a quiet date night. We lingered over our mains and just enjoyed the vibe.

Food was great and fairly quick, staff were friendly and efficient. Right beside the river, ideal for walking the dog before our meal and he was made welcome by the staff as well.

Been coming here for years. The service is always spot on, even when it&#39;s packed. They remember your name, know what you like. That&#39;s rare these days. Sure, you might wait a bit for a table on a Friday, but it&#39;s worth it for that consistency.
