Fantastic food to keep you coming back |
23 Trumpington St Cambridge CB2 1QA United Kingdom +44 1223 46 1655 http://www.browns-restaurants.com |
Browns has become something of an institution since it first opened in Brighton in 1973. Comfortable and stylish, it is also spacious and the bar is always busy. Starters include Smoked Irish Salmon, Duck Liver Parfait, Caesar salad and roasted red peppers. Main entrees include Swordfish Steak, Confit of Duck, Browns Lamb Steak, Scottish T-bone steak and Chickpea Casserole. Lighter fare includes hamburger with chips, steak sandwich, or Char Grilled Tarragon Chicken. For dessert, try the sticky toffee pudding, lemon tart, summer pudding or thick ice-cream milkshakes.

Smoke-free traditional pub |
85 Gwydir Street Cambridge CB1 2LG United Kingdom +44 1223 36 1382 |
This pub boasts a wide range of traditional local beers and real ales (including Adams, City of Cambridge, Milton, Wherry and Woodfords). It manages to combine its authentic character (no music) with a modern, clean and comfortable setting. Smoking is not permitted anywhere inside—or outside in the garden—where children can have a great time or you can try your hand at petanque. Reasonably-priced pub grub is also served from noon-9:30p daily. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Polish fare |
13 King Street Cambridge CB1 1LH United Kingdom +44 1223 35 5156 |
This cozy Polish cafe is definitely worth the visit. Fresh and colorfully decorated inside, the walls are adorned with oil paintings. They are well known for their specialty teas served in beautiful huge cups, which go well with the variety of polish pastries available. (Ask the owner to taste one the specialty Polish baguettes or cheesecakes.) If you really enjoy your lunch, then the cafe also has other Polish specialties to take away. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Huge servings of delicious noodle delights |
1-2 Millers Yard (Mill Lane) Cambridge CB2 1RQ United Kingdom +44 1223 36 3471 http://www.dojonoodlebar.co.uk/ |
Dojo Noodle Bar is a must for all fans of Japanese, Chinese, Thai and Vietnamese cuisine. The menu sports a varied range of noodle treats: soup-based, wok-fried, or smothered in sauce. There are plenty of vegetarian, meat and seafood dishes as well, and the servings are extremely generous! Ho Yo Min (king prawn), a wok fried dish of oyster sauce, prawns and vegetables, makes an absolutely delicious main course. And do try one of the fresh fruit or vegetable juices, green tea or the Japanese beer. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Central Italian eaterie |
12 Market Hill Cambridge CB2 3NJ United Kingdom +44 1223 36 7063 |
You will be spoilt for choice at Don Pasquale. You can enjoy a coffee or a meal in the bar pizzeria on the ground floor, or a full a la carte menu on the first floor. In the summer months, the restaurant takes advantage of its front terrace area, from where you'll have a great view of Market Square and Great St Mary's Church. The restaurant is fully licensed and the ground floor bar pizzeria provides a real slice of Italian life with pizza, snacks, cappuccino, hot chocolate and Italian style ice cream.

Continental-style restaurant |
33 Bridge Street Cambridge CB2 1UW United Kingdom +44 1223 36 2054 |
This is a well regarded and quality central restaurant. You'll find it over towards Magdalene College and just before the bridge over the river. It is a delightful small restaurant and serves two-course lunches and three-course evening dinners. You will find the waiters are exceptionally helpful and the chef is always willing to adapt a dish to an individual's personal preferences or requirements. The pizzas and fish dishes come highly recommended! Review © 2007, Wcities |

A good place to make friends |
8 St Edward's Passage Cambridge CB2 3PJ United Kingdom +44 1223 36 8753 |
This coffee house is deceptively small, despite being laid out on two floors. Huge mugs of coffee—Coffee, Coffee, Coffee and Marshmallows (three shots of espresso and marshmallows) is a favorite—can be sipped while inspecting the daily newspapers or the selection of magazines; a variety of snacks are also on the menu. Very popular with students, seating in the upstairs and colourful downstairs fills up very quickly. It is situated perfectly in the centre of the city just down an alley opposite King's College. The cafe is a great alternative to the larger chains in the city. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Tasty Italian dishes |
106 Grafton Shopping Centre Cambridge CB1 1PS United Kingdom +44 1223 46 2464 |
Located on the top floor of the Grafton Centre, just next to the Warner Village cinema, Mamma Amalfi looks like a quaint farmhouse—inside and out. The restaurant isn't the largest in town, but what it lacks in size it certainly makes up for in ambience. The service is always efficient and very friendly, the food is of the highest standard and the range of mouth-watering dishes on offer will dazzle you. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Excellent location and cuisine |
Midsummer Common Cambridge CB4 1HA United Kingdom +44 1223 36 9299 http://www.midsummerhouse.co.uk/ |
If you are looking for a highly exclusive place to dine then this is a great place in Cambridge. Its location is perfect: a Victorian villa house overlooking Midsummer Common. The culinary delights are many and prepared by the in-house chef Daniel Clifford, and you can expect every dish to come full of a multitude of tastes and flavours. The quality of the food is mirrored by the perfect service from the waiters. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Good food and location |
1 Kings Parade (The Cellars) Cambridge CB2 1SJ United Kingdom +44 1223 35 9506 http://www.n1kp.com/ |
Upon entering this restaurant and historic wine cellar, you are instantly immersed in a medieval setting. Favorite lunchtime entrees include Smoked Chicken Salad and Brisket of Beef and mashed potatoes with Burgundy sauce. If you prefer a sandwich, then try the filled baguette selection, served with homemade fried potatoes and mixed leaf salad. Choosing what to order in the evening is even more difficult, where the range of excellent dishes increases. Beverages include Cafe Latin, Earl Grey tea, and a wide range of wines, liqueurs and soft drinks. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Tea gardens to the Bloomsbury Set |
45-47 Mill Way Cambridge CB3 9ND United Kingdom +44 1223 84 5788 http://freespace.virgin.net/jd... |
Three miles south of Cambridge city centre, in Grantchester Village, is the famous Orchard Tea Garden. When the weather is dry, where better to sit than in the low-slung deck chairs on the grass, shaded by apple trees? Wasps aside, nothing interrupts the laziness of the place. The Pavilion has indoor seating with photographs on the wall evoking the spirit of the past. Morning coffees, afternoon teas and lunches are all served here. Sandwiches and cakes on the service counter prove difficult to resist. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Flash and contemporary diner |
14a Trinity Street Cambridge CB2 1TB United Kingdom +44 1223 50 6090 |
This is a superbly refurbished and stylish restaurant, offering one of the very best settings available in the city. It has an earthy feel to its decor and the range of food on offer is more than acceptable. Choose from 15 options on the lunch menu, or the possibility of 25 incredible dishes for dinner! Only the freshest meat, fish and vegetable ingredients are served. For drinks, try a Silver Mercedes or Killer Kool-Aid cocktail skillfully mixed by the professional bartenders. Live music and a specialty traditional roast are offered on Sunday Review © 2007, Wcities |
