Champion Of The Thames
3rd
4.7(578 reviews)
94/100
Champion of the Thames is a gem of a pub in Cambridge, boasting award-winning beers and a warm, welcoming feel that's perfect for a relaxed catch-up with friends.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The beer selection is absolutely spot on – they've won loads of awards like CAMRA Pub of the Year, so you know you're in for some cracking ales that are fresh and full of character.
  • The staff are proper legends; they're friendly, helpful, and full of great tips on what to do in Cambridge, making it feel like you're chatting with mates behind the bar.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some of the drinks can be a tad pricey, like that imported pint someone mentioned at £7.60, which might make you think twice if you're on a budget.
  • It seems a bit more geared towards locals, so if you're a visitor, it might not have that buzzing tourist vibe, though that's part of its charm really.

Thirsty Cambridge
4th
4.7(473 reviews)
94/100
Thirsty Cambridge is a cracking little spot for craft beer lovers, with a warm atmosphere and top-notch selections, though it's a bit pricey and cosy in size.
Pros and Cons

  • Staff are super knowledgeable and friendly; they'll offer tasters to help you pick just what you fancy, making the whole experience feel personal and welcoming.
Areas for Improvement
  • Prices can be a tad on the steep side, as you'd expect in Cambridge, so it might not be the best spot if you're watching your wallet.
  • The place is quite small with only one toilet, which can get a bit cramped when it's busy – not ideal for larger groups.

The Elm Tree
5th
4.6(774 reviews)
92/100
The Elm Tree is a delightful, unpretentious pub in Cambridge that's all about top-notch beers and a warm, welcoming atmosphere – ideal for a chilled-out catch-up with mates.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The beer selection is absolutely fantastic, with a brilliant range of Belgian brews, real ales from small UK breweries, and even tasters available if you're not sure what to go for.
  • It's got such a cosy, candlelit vibe that makes you feel right at home, perfect for a relaxed evening with board games on offer and live music most Sundays.
Areas for Improvement
  • There's no proper kitchen, so you're limited to bar snacks or whatever you bring along, which might disappoint if you're after a hearty meal.
  • Opening times can be a bit confusing with variations listed, like being closed on Mondays and Tuesdays according to the website, so it's worth double-checking to avoid a wasted trip.

92/100
The Free Press is a delightful traditional pub in Cambridge, serving up fantastic food and drinks in a cosy setting that's full of character.
Pros and Cons

  • It's got that cosy, welcoming vibe with open fires in winter and a lovely courtyard garden for summer days, making it perfect for a relaxed catch-up.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get pretty packed on weekends, so you might have to queue or book ahead to snag a table.
  • They're closed on Mondays, which is a shame if you're planning a mid-week pint.

92/100
The Carpenters Arms in Cambridge is a cracking little pub for craft beers, tasty pizzas, and lively events, though it has its off moments with service.

  • It's a fantastic spot for craft beer lovers, with a solid selection that makes you feel right at home if you're into your brews.
Areas for Improvement

  • They've got a fantastic selection of drinks, including what many call the best Guinness in town, plus a great range of real ales and guest beers.

88/100
The Eagle is a charming historic pub in Cambridge, blending rich heritage with tasty food and a friendly atmosphere, though it does draw a crowd.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The historic atmosphere is absolutely fascinating; it's like stepping back in time with tales of DNA discoveries and WWII graffiti that add a real sense of charm.
  • The food is spot on – fresh, traditional pub grub like fish and chips that's full of flavour, with options for vegetarians and vegans to boot.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get quite crowded with tourists, which sometimes takes away from the cosy feel and makes it a bit overwhelming on busy days.
  • Service isn't always hands-on; you might have to fetch your own drinks, which can feel a tad inconvenient if you're after a more attentive experience.

The Maypole is a cracking little pub in Cambridge with top-notch beers and tasty Italian grub, offering a warm, family feel – though it's not without the odd service snag.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The beer selection is absolutely brilliant, with a huge range of real ales and craft brews from independent spots – it's won them some well-deserved CAMRA awards
  • The Italian food is a real treat; think homemade pizzas and gnocchi that are packed with flavour and feel just right for a pub meal

  • They serve up some cracking food, like that glorious steak and ale pie, and it's all affordable with quick service, plus plenty of options for veggies and vegans.
Areas for Improvement
  • They can be a bit heavy-handed with the ice in drinks, which might water them down and leave you wanting a bit more of the good stuff.
  • The pub can get quite warm inside, which adds to the cosy feel but might not be ideal if you're after a cooler spot on a hot day.

MillWorks is a gem in Cambridge, blending a picturesque riverside setting with delicious, fresh food and welcoming service – it's a solid choice for a memorable meal with friends.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The location is absolutely stunning, right by the river with a view of the old millpond – it's perfect for a relaxing meal or a special occasion.
  • The food is top-notch, with fresh, local ingredients and standout dishes like succulent steaks, fresh fish, and those delicious Sunday roasts that everyone raves about.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get quite bustling, especially on weekends, which might make it feel a bit crowded if you're after a quiet pint or intimate chat.
  • Parking isn't the easiest – you'll need to walk a few minutes from nearby streets or a car park, which could be a minor hassle after a long day.

The Burleigh Arms is a charming historic pub in Cambridge that's raised the bar with exceptional food and attentive service, though it's a tad more expensive than your average local.

  • The service is spot-on and warm, with staff going the extra mile for special occasions, like offering complimentary drinks that make you feel right at home.

Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be hit or miss; one account described it as condescending, which might put a dampener on your evening if you're not lucky with who you're served by.
  • Drinks are on the pricey side, so it might not be the best spot if you're watching your wallet on a night out.

Hidden Rooms is a delightful cocktail lounge in Cambridge that's all about top-notch drinks and engaging events – a real treat for anyone after a sophisticated yet fun night out.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The cocktails are absolutely spot on – creative, well-crafted, and full of flavour, like that clear espresso martini that's a real crowd-pleaser.
  • The staff are super friendly and knowledgeable, especially hosts like Marcus who go the extra mile with entertaining stories and personalised service during classes or events.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some events, like the NYE party, might have disappointing music or DJ choices that don't quite match the occasion, leaving you wanting a bit more energy.
  • The bar staff could be a tad more attentive at times, though they're not bad overall – it's just that little extra polish might make the experience even smoother.

Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • It's a proper traditional English pub with that warm, welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home.
  • The pints are always fresh and full of flavour – you can tell they're well looked after.

The Cambridge Brew House is a cracking little spot in Cambridge, where you can enjoy fantastic home-brewed beers, tasty grub, and a welcoming vibe that makes it ideal for a casual get-together.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • Their own micro-brews are absolutely spot on – from hoppy IPAs to rich stouts, it's a treat for any beer lover.
  • The food is spot on too; I've heard the scotch eggs are incredible, and the menu seems fresh and seasonal.
Areas for Improvement
  • One or two reviews suggest it's solid but not standout compared to other local pubs, especially in a competitive area like Cambridge.
  • The operating hours listed seem a bit muddled, which might leave you scratching your head about when to pop in.

The Granta is a charming waterside pub in Cambridge that's ideal for a relaxed drink by the river, with friendly service and decent food, though it does get hectic at peak times.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The waterside location is absolutely stunning, with a peaceful beer garden overlooking the river—perfect for soaking up the sun and enjoying a pint on a nice day.
  • It's got that lovely mix of traditional charm and modern touches inside, making it a welcoming spot for a casual catch-up or a special occasion.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get pretty crowded, especially on sunny weekends, leading to long waits for drinks and food that might put a dampener on things.
  • Some dishes fall short— like that chicken Kiev that was a bit tough and greasy— so it's worth being picky with your order.

The Tram Depot is a lively Cambridge gem with cracking beers and a friendly buzz, ideal for a casual pint, though the food might leave you wanting a bit more.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The beer selection is absolutely brilliant, with a fantastic range of cask and craft ales, ciders, and even cocktails that make it a real treat for any beer enthusiast.
  • The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, full of character from its historic roots as a tramway building, and it's a lovely spot for a relaxed chat with mates.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some of the food can be a bit hit-and-miss; a few folks have mentioned it's overly greasy, like the coleslaw that didn't quite live up to expectations.
  • The menu's sociable sharing plates are meant to complement the drinks, but they've been described as fairly ordinary at times, so it might not wow you if you're after something special.

  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready with a smile and great service that makes you feel right at home.
Areas for Improvement
  • One little niggle is that the gents' bathroom lock needs sorting out – it's not a deal-breaker, but it'd be better if it was fixed.
  • The operating hours seem a bit muddled in the details, so it might be worth double-checking to avoid any surprises if you're planning a visit.

  • It's a welcoming spot with a friendly vibe, mixing locals and students, and being dog-friendly means you can bring your furry mate along for the fun.
Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be hit or miss; some folks have mentioned being ignored by staff, even when it's not overly busy, which puts a bit of a dampener on things.
  • It can get a tad rowdy or feel like it's turned into a family hub in the evenings, with some reports of rude behaviour from other visitors, like squabbles over seats.

The Anchor Cambridge is a lovely riverside gem with cracking views and a welcoming vibe, but it's not without its rough edges, so keep expectations in check for a balanced outing.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The views from this riverside spot are absolutely stunning, right by the River Cam with sights of the Mathematical Bridge and Queens' College – it's a proper treat for a relaxing pint.
  • They've got a cracking selection of beers and ales, plus some tasty specials like the new Prix Fixe menu, which is great value for a couple of courses without breaking the bank.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some folks have mentioned dodgy hygiene in the facilities, like slippery floors in the toilets, which is a bit off-putting and could spoil an otherwise nice visit.
  • Food can be hit or miss; one review noted a new dish that was completely bland, and there are mixed feelings about things like the Sunday roasts compared to nearby spots.

  • Some of the dishes, like the seasoned fries, can be a bit basic – just a sprinkle of salt, which might not live up to expectations if you're after more flavour.
  • There aren't many condiments on offer, so if you're someone who likes to customise your meal, you might find it a tad limiting.

Ta Bouche is a lively cocktail bar in the heart of Cambridge, offering cracking deals and a fun atmosphere that's perfect for a casual get-together with mates.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The cocktail selection is fantastic, with loads of options and great happy hour deals like two for £15, making it a brilliant spot for a budget-friendly night out.
  • The staff are really friendly and know their stuff – they can whip up just about any drink you fancy, which adds to the welcoming vibe.
Areas for Improvement
  • It can get pretty hectic and crowded, turning into what some might call 'carnage', which isn't ideal if you're after a more relaxed evening.
  • No reservations means it's first come, first served, so you might end up waiting or struggling to find a table on busier nights.

  • The food's decent for the price, but it's not exactly gourmet – it's more about filling up than fine dining.

79/100
Byron's Bear is a charming new riverside pub in Cambridge that's got the views and vibes just right, though it's not without a few service wobbles here and there.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The location is absolutely spot on, right by the River Cam with stunning views over Jesus Green – perfect for a relaxing pint on a sunny day.
  • They've got a cracking selection of beers, real ales, and even some great ciders that are worth seeking out; it's a real treat for beer enthusiasts.
Areas for Improvement
  • Service can be a bit inconsistent; some staff are brilliant, but others might make you feel like you're interrupting them when you're just trying to order.
  • Prices aren't the cheapest, especially for things like a side of chips, which could leave you feeling a tad short-changed if you're not expecting it.

The Duke of Cambridge is a welcoming pub in Cambridge with brilliant service, tasty grub, and a relaxed atmosphere, though the facilities aren't always perfect.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • The food is spot on – think crispy chicken wings, massive portions of nachos, and seasonal specials that really hit the spot.
Areas for Improvement
  • The toilets can be a bit of a letdown, with some folks mentioning they're dirty and smelly – could use some sprucing up.
  • It's a short walk from the city centre, which might not be ideal if you're looking for something right in the thick of it.
