Things to do in Cambridge

There’s so much more to Cambridge than chino-clad students scurrying around in caps and gowns, so check out our recommendations below and start planning how to make the most of your time away.

Where to eat

The Eagle

Tuck into a hearty steak and ale pie at Cambridge’s most well-known inn. With its wood-panelled walls and unique old world charm, The Eagle offers the perfect winter retreat with simple pub grub that won’t break the bank. However, its real claim to fame lies neither in its food nor its furnishings, but in a legacy of an altogether more scientific kind, for it was here that Watson and Crick announced their discovery of DNA in 1953.

Midsummer House

For something a little bit special, Daniel Clifford’s double Michelin-starred restaurant certainly won’t disappoint. Although a bit on the pricey side, the imaginative taster menus serve up genius blends of taste and texture, all stunningly presented to the highest standard. And to top off a delicious meal, you can also admire the tranquil River Cam from the dining room… if you can tear your eyes away from the culinary masterpiece in front of you.

Fitzbillies

No trip to Cambridge would be complete without a taste of Fitzbillies’ world-famous Chelsea buns. Baked on the premises since the 1920s, the top secret recipe has attracted foodies from far and wide for nearly a century. Since then, a second café has opened up on Bridge Street offering breakfast, brunch, lunch and afternoon tea. Both sites are open daily until 6pm.
