    After clarification by the government on which businesses may operate during the tightened restrictions, breweries with off-sales licences are permitted to sell beer to take home. The Grain Drive-Thru will therefore be open for business unless further restrictions are applied. Due to the COVID19 outbreak and the closures of pubs, we have a brewery full of beer but no pubs to sell it to, so we are turning the brewery into a Beer Collection Drive-Thru. Cleanliness and sterilisation is second nature to us, and you will find the Grain Drive-Thru to be a far lower risk and more sterile environment than any supermarket or shop you will visit. This service is aimed at those local to the brewery, so first see if a brewery closer to you offers a similar service. You drive in at one end, place your order and pay using contactless payment or cash, then drive to the next door to pick up your beer.

    Rescued from decline and opened in 2010 as Milton Brewery's first pub in Cambridge. Just off Mill Road, the Dev attracts a mix of characters for beer, food and a chat. A deceptively large pub given its small frontage there are also small patio areas both front and back. Inside it was impressively renovated with front and rear drinking areas offering a mixture of wooden booths and larger tables. Tall windows and a high ceiling with fans.

  • Duke of Cambridge ku.oc.gnikeneerg@7901(01223) 304121 176 East Road Cambridge CB1 1BG

    A pub which has been through some interesting times, including a disastrous spell as the Noble Art, a boxing-themed bar. It's most recent incarnation as the Duke of Cambridge is perhaps appropriate, the Duke having visited East Road in Feb 2013. and Prince Edward was banned from here in his student days though it was hushed up at the time. Bright modern decor, popular with work groups. Food served noon-9 every day.

  • Dumpling Tree moc.eertgnilpmudeht@ofni(01223) 240808 59 Perne Road Cambridge CB1 3RX

    Former Tolly Cobbold pub built in the late 1950s (opened by Lord Tollemache in November 1959) when it was known as the Weathervane. Subsequently renamed the Master Mariner before becoming the Med "Mediterranean Bar & Grill" in 2010. One time home of Turpins microbrewery, which has since moved to larger premises in Pampisford. In 2019 it underwent renovations reopening in August as the Dumpling Tree Chinese restaurant and pub.

  • Eagle ku.oc.gnikeneerG@4003(01223) 505020 8 Bene't Street Cambridge CB2 3QN

    Probably the most famous pub in Cambridge, with its galleried courtyard and back room ceiling covered with graffiti applied by World War Two airmen. This is also where Watson and Crick announced that, in nearby labs, they had worked out the double helical structure of DNA, the "secret of life". A window at the back of the pub has been open for 300 years - because it's believed a child died in the pub during a fire when the window couldn't be opened. For a time in the early 90s its future was in doubt because of possible redevelopment but common sense prevailed and the pub reopened in 1992. The price to pay was a major expansion of the original two-bar layout to incorporate former office premises fronting Bene't Street. However, this work was sensitively executed and the "new" areas, especially the panelled room to the right of the front entrance, are very attractive. Food from the standard GK managed house menu is served 11 - 10 every day. The pumpclip for the "Eagle's DNA" gives no clues as to its origins but we assume it's made by Greene King and is probably a rebadging of another beer (Morland Original?)

Pool, darts and bar billiards are played, as well as a range of board games. Regular beer festivals are held. Large patio garden with gazebo adjoining the building.

  • Engineer's House 07761 049353 The Engineer's House, Riverside Cambridge CB5 8HN

  • Fort St. George ku.oc.gnikeneerG@6011(01223) 354327 Midsummer Common Cambridge CB4 1HA

    Parts of this riverside pub date back to the 16th century and it was originally built on an island. It gets its name from its resemblance to the Fort St George in Madras, which when built in 1639, was the first British fort in India. (the pub used to be callled the Fort St George in England so people wouldn't confuse the two but the last two words have sadly been dropped). From the front door you turn right into the snug which has lost some of its character over the years but retains an open fire and tiled floor. The large main bar has a wood-boarded floor and rather spartan furnishings but great views of the river. To the left of the entrance is the restaurant, part parquet floored and part quarry tiled with some vestiges of the old walls but mostly repro fixtures and fittings. Again lots of windows onto the river. Food is from the standard GK managed house menu, served 11am to 9pm (8pm Sunday). If this is a bit much for you, slum it next door at the Michelin-starred Midsummer House. In front of the pub is a large patio overlooking the common. Its seasonal popularity is down to its location on the common next to the river.

  • Free Press moc.egdirbmacsserpeerf@tcatnoc(01223) 368337 7 Prospect Row Cambridge CB1 1DU

    Close to Parker's Piece, this intimate, friendly pub serves high-quality food and great beer. The rare Greene King XX Mild was its best seller until Greene King stopped brewing it. Pub regulars still cuss when GK are mentioned. Guest beers are from Greene King's seasonal and guest lists, including Jarl from Fyne Ales, a Weston's Old Rosie cider is also available. It has an interesting selection of unusual spirits such as English whisky and a range of bottled beers. A pub since 1834, it just survived the 1970s Kite area redevelopment. It is identified by CAMRA as having a regionally important historic pub interior. Only the tiny snug is from the original pub. The other two rooms are a loving reconstruction. Local pictures, historic newspapers and printing type cases containing nick-nacks decorate the walls. The rowing eight bow hanging from the front bar ceiling is from the crashed 1984 Cambridge varsity boat. When students relished a frivolous challenge, Downing once got 59 in the snug. Bench seating out front and a walled garden at the rear. A recent addition is the "press room" in the garden.

    Located in Chesterton, the Green Dragon is a village riverside pub and one of the oldest pubs in Cambridge. In 1630 it was described as an "ancient victualling house". The skeletally exposed beams reveal where some of its interior walls used to be. Despite serial refurbishments, including some modern furniture, it still retains some of its character. A large central inglenook fireplace divides the bar into two distinct areas. There is a lovely beer garden by the river on the opposite side of the road and also a walled rear garden which is non-smoking (there is a well-furnished smoking area in the gazebo attached to the rear of the building).

There are a number of separate drinking areas: one either side of the door, a snug, and another room off to one side. Dark wood and warm colours abound. To the left of the bar the ceiling has been raised to the rafters. The wood and glass walls around the front door hark back to an older incarnation. Behind is a good sized beer garden. The car park has been converted into the largest pub cycle park in Cambridge, leaving a few spaces for cars. Eight real ales (5 from Milton and 3 guests from micros) including at least one dark), three real ciders or perries plus Moravka unpasteurised lager from Taddington, Derbyshire. Well regarded for its stone baked pizzas (available to take away) but other options exist. Returned to the Good Beer Guide in 2014 after a twenty year absence.

  • King Street Run moc.liamg@nur.teerts.gnik.eht(01223) 328900 86 King Street Cambridge CB1 1LN

    Self-confessedly quirky establishment whose name commemorates a Cambridge pastime which involved drinking a pint in each of eight pubs that used to exist along the street without going to the loo. When owned by Whitbread many years ago it was refitted as a "fun pub" and it still bears the scars e.g. carpets and furniture on the ceiling. The upstairs is even more higgledy-piggledy than the ground floor; the latter has a bare-boarded U-shaped layout with unused fireplaces, a couple of telly screens and a table footy alcove. The clientele is largely of an alternative persuasion and the atmosphere can get quite funky though it's also a friendly place. Happy hour 5 -7, Mon - Fri.

    One of several claimants to be the oldest pub in Cambridge.

    When it opened in 2000 Wetherspoon's reckon this to be the biggest pub in the UK and it's certainly a whopper, occupying two floors of the former Regal cinema (the Picturehouse Cinema occupies the rest of the building). Although essentially a barn of a place, there are a few more intimate areas on the edges. There is also an outdoor area to the rear. A DJ ups the atmosphere from 10pm on Friday and Saturday evenings. Excellent value beer and food but it can get hugely busy in the evening when service can become an issue. As well as its 4 regular ales it also offers 8 to 10 guest ales. It is no longer Britain's biggest pub. The Moon under Water, Manchester (opened Jan 2014) and the Royal Victoria Pavilion, Ramsgate (opened Aug 2017), both also Wetherspoon's pubs, are larger.

  • Royal Standard moc.liamg@292bupdradnats(01223) 569065 292 Mill Road Cambridge CB1 3NL

    The Royal Standard was originally built before most of the Victorian housing in the Romsey Town area was, thanks to a far-sighted brewer who presumably predicted the expansion of Mill Road past the railway line - it's at a slight angle to the road, probably as a result of predating it. Following almost a decade when it was a restaurant and then a charity shop, and after several rounds of planning applications from the developers who bought the site, the Royal Standard reopened on 22nd October 2015 as a pub, albeit smaller, and with a vastly reduced garden. It immediately became a fine addition to Cambridge's pub scene. Bottled beers, changing keg beers (including Duchesse de Bourgogne) are frequently Belgian but there are plenty of British options as well, including locally and regionally brewed cask ales. It offers a range of real cider, including several locally produced ones. Wide selection of gins. The kitchen is run by Tzatziki who offer a Greek menu which is also available to take away.

    The Moon and Starfish has been a feature of the Clacton sea front since 1997, making it the only Wetherspoon pub in Tendring until the Bottle Kiln opened in Dovercourt 20 years later. Situated in what was once part of the Royal Hotel, which was first built in around 1872 as one of the first buildings in the then new (in July 1871) coastal town of Clacton-on-Sea, it offers coastal views. Opposite the Pavilion Fun Park and a short walk from Clacton Pier it offers meals throughout the day as well as a range of ales and a regular cider. Being only a short walk from Pier Avenue and Jackson Road most Clacton bus services pass nearby, and the railway station is less then half a mile away. During Clacton carnival week in August it overlooks the route of the procession, and is similarly conveniently situated for views of the Clacton Air Show at the end of each August. The pub participates in the national Wetherspoon beer and cider festivals each year, and has been a regular supporter of the Clacton Real Ale & Cider Festival.
