First ever beer in Cambridge. Spotted this bar on the Cask Marque App. Barsham Golden Close IPA from Norfolk. 5%. Sadly card only. Cannot wait until all spending is Government controlled so I can drink less. Nice airy bar with one hand pump.Food looks good. Jorvic and Casta like the friendly staff.

The service is excellent and all the staff were really friendly and attentive, and it has a lovely, cosy atmosphere inside. I’d been really wanting to go for a while, but was a little disappointed by the food. The food itself tasted good and fresh, but portions were really small for how much you’re paying. You could probably go somewhere else of similar quality with larger portions for the same price.

Very friendly staff and good service. Food was delicious - I can definitely recommend the chicken supreme. We also ordered the british cheeseboard and that was one of the highlights. Very good atmosphere.

Had a lovely brunch, eggs royale and a flat white. I only gave it 4 stars because it could have been hot not lukewarm but overall a good experience and I would go back again.

A nice little restaurant! Went for dinner and was not disappointed! The dishes are very original and the portion sizes were good! Value for money and what you get is very good as well. The ambiance of an old bicycle shop is really nice, completed with little details which add to the experience. The staff were very kind and attentive. I would definitely recommend and would certainly visit again when in town.

Really tasty and generous portions (not pictured was the trout starter).Only downside and reason it’s not 5* was that the service was quite slow, I had to go up to order food and get our starters cleared as both times we were forgotten about. Prices were v reasonable however, so would go again

I have to say that this place was rather disappointing seeing as it came highly recommended on websites and various videos. For me the pancakes were a bit too dry for my liking. The banana, dark chocolate sauce and nuts worked really well together but the pancakes struggled to absorb sauce. The place is really nice and it is a great vibe but the food was a let down.Warning: if you are travelling by car there is no free side street parking near by.

"2/5 much better brunch places located in Cambridge so spend your money elsewhere"In all honesty pretty disappointed with the brunch here! I had high expectations from this place and as always in life expectations are the root of all disappointment!We ordered the avocado on toast with a poached egg. The sour dough was extremely stale and the portion sizes were very limited.The pancakes with dark chocolate and banana/hazelnut are a good flavour combination however the pancakes were extremely dry and hard. We had to ask for extra maple syrup to correct this. Definitely not fluffy pancakes!Overall the coffee was nice, rich and smooth and so I think that warrants the 2 star review.However if you are in Cambridge looking for brunch there are much better places I would visit first before coming heere

Very friendly staff, cool interiors and a varied menu. I would agree with some other reviews that the portions were a little on the light side, but certainly good quality and service.

Had quite a disappointing visit for brunch after so many people had recommended this place. The staff were nice, but the portion sizes were tragic for the price. The "scrambled tofu on toast" came with just a single, thin slice of untoasted bread, and wasn't nice at all. The cauliflower wings were tasty, but was just four small florets. I simply can't justify coming back for food when the value for money is so bad.
