The Castle Inn, Cambridge

The Castle Inn is an Adnams run pub with bare board and tiled flooring throughout. The entrance leads to a central area that houses a big round table that is overlooked by a raised coal fireplace to the right. On the other side of the chimney breast is a seating area in the right side of the pub. A step to the left of the entrance leads up to the bar area with a counter that faces high tables along the front windows. Further to the left are small front and rear seating areas that are split by a central column. Out the back is a surprisingly large split-level patio garden with picnic tables and a couple of huts. The bar counter supports six hand pumps that were drawing Broadside, Lighthouse, Ghost Ship, Southwold, Mosaic and Balmy Days, which is a decent collaboration with Vocation Brewery. Craft keg was also available, as was food with the Castle Burger coming in at £14. I though the barman was very friendly and the back music was of my era with a bit of Lightening Seeds et al. I liked it in here so will return when next in the area.
