Smart Italian joint |
32 Bridge Street Cambridge CB2 1UJ United Kingdom +44 1223 31 4954 http://www.caffeuno.co.uk/ |
Located on the quayside, by the River Cam, Caffe Uno is an extremely pleasant spot. You will enjoy a taste of the continental atmosphere, whether you're out for dinner with a group of friends (it is particularly good for parties) or whether you fancy a quiet meal for two. You can even take advantage of the patio area outside the cafe, relax over a steaming cappuccino and watch the world rush by. Caffe Uno offers an extensive range of Italian cooking (pasta, pizza and risotto), just like mamma used to make. And you can choose between a meal in the cafe itself or you can take away some of the delicious pizza treats. Review © 2007, Wcities |

The Cambridge Curry Center has been around since the 60s. The restaurant has two sections—the main room and a party room downstairs.

Meat-eaters and vegetarians are both well catered to and in addition to the usual fare, there's a myriad of sundries and a selection of English meals. Review © 2007, Wcities |

 Modern entertainment |
46 Grafton Centre Management office Cambridge CB1 1PS United Kingdom +44 (0)1223 31 6201 http://www.graftoncentre.co.uk/ |
When you step foot in the Grafton Centre, you leave the dreamy spires of Cambridge behind for some modern consumerism. This is a bright, clean shopping centre, with shiny elevators, glass and escalators located just across Parker's Piece, about 10 minutes from the centre of town. It has the attraction and practicality of shops and entertainment all under one roof. There is the Warner Village cinema, a few cafes and restaurants, and a variety of shops, including Principles and Oasis. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Tasty Indian treats |
9-13 Castle Street Cambridge CB3 0AH United Kingdom +44 1223 35 8399 |
The Maharajah is often considered the best of the three curry houses on Castle Street. The restaurant's decor is a cut above the rest and its food is delicious.

For those of you who fancy a starter, or a side dish, there's plenty of choice too: bhaji, a myriad of naans, chapati, poppadums and much more to whet your appetite. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Curry house on the hill |
71 Castle Street Cambridge CB3 0AH United Kingdom +44 1223 31 2569 |
The Star of India completes the trio of curry houses on Castle Hill, the Cambridge Curry Centre and the Maharajah being the other two establishments in this neck of the woods. Inside, The Star of India isn't quite as up-market as the Maharajah, but you'll still be able to relax in the surroundings. The Star attracts a varied clientele, but is particularly popular with students. If the restaurant is not too busy then you'll be in for a pleasant night out, but if it is jam-packed then you may find that the service is occasionally hurried. The Star of India provides all styles of curry. Hot, cold, non-alcoholic and alcoholic drinks are available. Review © 2007, Wcities |
