Cambridge Pubs, Bars & Clubs

 

 

Cambridge may have a global reputation for its university and its STEM sector, but on the local level, having an incredible choice of pubs and bars could also be considered one of Cambridge’s claims to fame! It’s not always easy to know which ones are independent though which is why we’ve curated this list of the best local gems for you.

 

Pub heaven

 

Cambridge pubs really do come in all shapes and sizes. Cosy backstreet pubs perfect for a Sunday roast and a real ale, city centre pubs with a buzz, or a visit to a local village pub to relax and soak up the atmosphere – take your pick of the best!

 

Cocktail connoisseurs

 

If you like to mix things up a bit, Cambridge is blessed with some seriously good independent cocktail bars and lounges. And it’s not just for drinking delicious cocktails, as some offer cocktail making classes too – a great choice for a special occasion or just a fun night out with friends.

 

Let them entertain you

 

For live music fans, the independent pubs of Cambridge are where you need to be. The pub scene on and around Mill Road is especially vibrant. But there’s other entertainment to be found. Many more pubs, bars and clubs have drink and draw nights, board game competitions and, just for a few laughs, comedy nights.
