About The Cambridge Blue

A Cambridge side-street pub with a long room, a rear garden and a big canopy over the outdoor seating, so there's space to park a pram and let children spread out a bit. There's a kids' menu, high chairs, buggy access and free parking, and the walls are covered in old brewery memorabilia — enough curiosities to keep small people looking up, especially at the ceiling. Food is ordered by QR code at the table, which helps when someone's hungry now: the pie and mash, the smash burger and the tomahawk all get raved about, and portions are generous. Staff are friendly and unflustered. Be aware evenings fill up fast and it's popular with drinkers, so lunchtime is calmer; one quiet spell left a lone person behind the bar, and service slowed.
