Places to Eat in Cambridge

Because of the class Cambridge university, the city is known for being highbrow and bubbling with sophis­tica­tion. Thankfully, the restaurants across the city offer up a lot of options, from experience 5-course meals to your on-the-go burger before the last night of freedom. You can feel right at home with the choice of places to eat in Cambridge or be adventurous if you fancy!

A combination you might have never come across before, mix fine dining with delicious Indian cuisine and you’ve got a flavour explosion that all the girls can sink their teeth into! Navadhanya on Newmarket Road is a beautifully-decorate restaurant offering refined Indian cuisine that you’ll want to tell all your friends about. We told you that Cambridge has a spectrum of cafes, bars and eateries, and Smokeworks is a shining example of this. From fine dining to diner style dishes, this barbecue restaurant on Free School Lane offers classic American cuisine to line your stomachs.

For a quick lunch stop, bite to eat during the day or simple meal to cure a hangover, Bread & Meat is exactly what it says on the tin. This stripped back café offers posh sandwiches using the finest ingredients so you can indulge in some home comforts with a stylish edge. Finally, our wild card is The Olive Grove. If you’re looking to try something different, this Greek restaurant serves unique dishes to large groups throughout the year. You might struggle to pack all the great places to eat in Cambridge into one small hen weekend!

Market Passage

Presents some of the liveliest party bars and if you’re looking for world class cocktails then there are plenty to try around here. Revolution bar and Hidden Rooms are both popular venues that offer just that.

Baroosh is by far one of Cambridge’s best hidden gems. This venue has several floors, making it a welcoming place for parties of any size. They serve delicious cocktails, beers, spirits and much more. With music on 24/7, you and the girls won’t be able to stop dancing.

King Street

Home to the King Street run where the local students would have to run to every pub and down a pint every time! Now, you’ll simply find a quiet row of some of the best pubs in Cambridge where you can enjoy a couple of drinks and some good food.

The Cambridge Brew House prides itself on being an amazing place to spend time with the girls and also having a wide selection of fine drinks on their menu. They even have their own micro-brewery on site, so you will never find yourself short of a drink in this venue.

Sidney Street

Though if you do fancy partying a little harder, then we recommend Vinyl nightclub on Sidney Street. This retro and modern club offers great music and cheap cocktails, with a large dance floor that you and the girls can bust your best (or worst) moves on. Vinyl offer many different deals that includes private booths, drinks packages and VIP treatment, making it the perfect place to celebrate a hen party in Cambridge

Reasons to Visit

The Architecture

Old, bold and simply stunning, the buildings around Cambridge are a vision. Key places include King’s College chapel and Quayside just to name a few.

Punting on the River Cam

The River Cam is the city’s pride and joy, so why not hire a boat and have a go at punting down the river? You can see the city atop the water with a glass of bubbly in hand.

Relaxed Parks

Outside greenery is very important to the city of Cambridge, and places like the Cambridge University Botanical Gardens provide a great daytime experience for any plant mums out there.

Chelsea Buns

It may seem strange to add a food item onto the reasons to visit in Cambridge but trust us. If you’re going, find yourself the best Chelsea Bun (ever) at cafes like Fitzbillies.

Unique Activities

Although small, Cambridge is mighty when it comes to the array of hen party activities on offer. There’s a handful of experiences that you actually won’t find anywhere else!

Getting Around Cambridge

Once you arrive into the centrally located Cambridge Railway station you girls can navigate around the city at your leisure by foot as many of the main attractions are within walking distance.

There are however plenty of buses and taxis available throughout the day/evening if you’re planning on going somewhere a little further. If you fancy something different you can hire a bike or enjoy some punting on the river.

If you girls have decided on driving to Cambridge then if you’re coming from London follow the M11, or if you’re driving down from the north, the A1 is for you.
