A roadside GK pub with a lively, loud local following, but reasonably sociable with a goo dpub atmosphere. The single bar feels a bit cluttered with all the columns and tables crammed around them. The food was abysmal, even by GK standards, but they did have a reasonable ale selection, and it was well kept – Greene King Fireside, Rocking Rudolph and IPA, and Moynihan Best Bitter. Probably worth dropping in when passing, but it’s not in Cambridge’s top drawer when it comes to crawl candidates.

A busy pub on a main road near the station offering accommodation, with a mixture of Irish, sporting and student feels. The main room has a sanded floor and is mostly laid out for eating, with breakfasts available from 07.30 and various food offers. A side conservatory room is not much different. There are a couple of sofas and much sporting memorabilia decorates the walls, with a few TVs. A number of outdoor benches are available to the side and at the back of the car park. Beers entirely from the Greene King stable, with St Edmunds, IPA, London Glory and Old Speckled Hen on handpump.
