We’re frequently asked by our customers to recommend local restaurants when they are visiting Cambridge, so we thought we would do our bit by compiling a list of local establishments who are participating, right here.

If you fancy grabbing something to eat, either before or after going on a punt tour with us, then this list is definitely a good place to start.

If you’re staying in a budget hotel in Cambridge, then you might want to find a place to eat, especially if you’re accommodation only has limited, or no food on offer.

So, without further ado, here (in no particular order) are the Cambridge eateries, bars, restaurants, cafes, pubs, etc that we think are worth a visit. We’re not saying that these are the best restaurants in Cambridge but some of them might be and they are definitely worth checking out.

Oh and if you are the manager of somewhere in the Cambridge area that isn’t listed here, please get in touch with us so we can add you in.
