About Bull & Bass Restaurant

Tucked inside the Hilton in the city centre, this is a calmer, roomier option than most Cambridge restaurants at lunchtime — hotel-sized tables mean a pram fits without a fuss, and there are high chairs and a kids' menu. The open kitchen is a genuine distraction for bored children: you can watch the chefs working away while you wait. Food gets rave mentions — the chicken tikka masala with its mango chutney, the chicken schnitzel, fish and chips, and a soup of the day that changes. Portions on sides and desserts are generous, and the cheesecake is light rather than sickly. Plant-based and vegetarian dishes are properly available. Worth knowing: service can be slow or scattered when they're short-staffed, so it suits a relaxed dinner more than a hungry-toddler dash. Thursday steak night brings a useful discount.
