Steve C left this review about Live & Let Live

Live and Let Live was very busy on Friday evening last week. So much so that we ended up stood in the rear at a beer shelf in what felt like a corridor. The five cask offerings were Great Newsome’s Sleck Dust, Nethergate’s Suffolk County, Oakham’s Citra, Fat Cat’s Marmalade Cat and Settle Brewery’s Plum Porter. There were also six real ciders available as well as a craft keg range. This pub is on the revisit list for when I’m a bit more sober because this visit was nine hours into the crawl.

More Cantabrigian backstreetery, extensively described below.
This is a very busy mixed locals’ place, with lots of natural wood t ‘n’ g style and an Artex ceiling.
There were five cask offerings, with a good half of Oakham Citra; worth including on a crawl or a prolonged stay.

My first visit for well over a decade, and it was good to find it less gloomy than my memory of it. And livelier too, and with five beers on the bar, two of which I can aver were in very good condition. There are 10 "craft beers" too, and a number of ciders listed on the blackboard. I went for two beers from Nethergate, a brewery I have found reliable in the past and they didn't let me down; neither did the cellar team, as both beers were in the NBSS 3.5/4 range. There was another Nethergate, plus a chocolate stout from Rudgate, and Oakham Citra. Definitely one to include when visiting Cambridge.
