Welcome to cambridge-pubs.co.uk, a guide to pubs in Cambridge. Since 1996 we have visited each of the 119 pubs in the area, usually on Friday or Saturday lunchtime. Over this period, new pubs have opened, 9 have closed, and many have been refurbished. We try to keep our reviews up to date, but visitng all the pubs takes us around three years. If you find anything to be out of date, let us know by using the form below, or mailing us at timothyjmills@hotmail.com or dlg10@cl.cam.ac.uk.
Historically, Cambridge has been well served with pubs. In 1597 there were 80 ale houses, although this was reduced to 50 because too much corn was being used for ale instead of bread! By 1749 the number had risen to 156 inns and pubs, serving a population of 10000. Today, the 110 pubs serve a population of around 125000, an average of 1136 people per pub.
