Cambridge Blue

A friendly 1860s backstreet pub, built to serve the terrace that housed railway workers, with an unexpected large sun trap garden and an amazing range of beers, from 200 bottled beers from around the world to a mind-boggling choice of 14 real ales from micro-breweries on handpump in the tap room - try a pint of Oakham Inferno or Woodforde's Wherry. Inside are two real fires, lots of memorabilia and a lively, buzzy vibe. Good-value pub grub made on the premises comes in the form of steak-and-kidney pie; fish pie; sausages and mash; a daily curry; and a range of filled ciabatta sandwiches and jacket potatoes (plus there are always vegetarian options). Don't miss the February, June and October beer festivals.
