You'll find yourself in one of Cambridge's most dependable gastropubs, tucked into that brilliant stretch of Peas Hill where the cobbles meet proper cooking. The space strikes that perfect balance between polished and pubby – exposed brick, industrial touches, and enough craft taps to make any beer bore weep with joy. The kitchen takes British pub food seriously without being poncy about it. Think slow-cooked beef shin with bone marrow, or their legendary Sunday roasts that draw queues of hungover students and discerning locals alike. The beer list reads like a love letter to independent breweries, and the staff actually know their hops from their malts. It gets properly busy at weekends, but that's half the charm – this is Cambridge dining at its most confident.
