Milton Arms

Head north from the city centre towards Milton Road and you'll find yourself in proper local territory—the kind of Cambridge that doesn't revolve around student punts or three-quid espressos. The Milton Arms is a straightforward neighbourhood pub that does what it does without any fuss: serves decent food at reasonable prices, keeps the ale flowing, and doesn't try to be anything it's not. It's the sort of place where you can roll in for a weeknight pint after work or bring the family for a casual weekend meal without the pretence you'll find elsewhere in town.
