Zizzi - Cambridge, Bene't Street

You'll find yourself on Bene't Street between the market square and the colleges, where Zizzi slots in nicely amongst Cambridge's dining options. It's the kind of place where you can grab a genuinely decent margherita without the markup you'd pay elsewhere, or settle in for a proper evening with friends over a bottle of Pinot Grigio. The dining room feels bright and unfussy—exposed brick, warm lighting, the sort of comfortable Italian-ness that works whether you're here for a casual Tuesday lunch or a Saturday night out. Service is attentive without hovering, and they're used to handling the student crowd and local regulars alike.
