The Mill in Cambridge

Ah, The Mill – what a gem of a pub down by the River Cam in Cambridge. I have to say, it's one of those places that just draws you in with its idyllic setting on the grassy banks, where you can sit out in the summer sunshine with a drink in hand or huddle up inside by a roaring fire when the weather turns chilly. The real ales are a highlight; they're so well-kept and have earned the pub some well-deserved CAMRA awards, making it ideal for anyone who appreciates a proper pint. The food doesn't disappoint either – think tasty burgers, generous Sunday roasts, and even a new spritz menu with options for everyone, including those opting for alcohol-free alternatives. Plus, the staff are absolute stars, always making you feel welcome, just like in that review where Ricardo turned a quick takeaway into a memorable experience. It's dog-friendly too, which adds to the relaxed, community vibe. On the flip side, though, keep in mind that the toilets have had a mixed report, with one person finding them a bit whiffy, and the prices are moderate, so it might stretch the budget if you're out for a casual night. All in all, it's a fantastic spot for catching up with mates or enjoying a bit of live music or events, but it's worth checking ahead if you're picky about the finer details – still, I'd recommend giving it a go for that authentic pub charm.
