A proper pub crawl for anyone visiting Cambridge. I have tried to plan a logical route starting and finishing at the train station. The idea is not to have a drink in all of them, but it gives you a nice route to follow while drinking in the sights of Cambridge.

Today I have a tour of various historic pubs and breweries in Cambridge, each with unique backstories and atmospheres. Starting with The Elm Tree, known for its vintage décor and selection of cask ales, the journey highlights The Cambridge Brew House's microbrewery and quirky interior, as well as Pint Shop's blend of historical charm and modern design. Other notable stops include The Free Press, The Tram Depot, and The Blue Moon, each featuring distinctive features and local brews. I emphasise the community vibes, live music, and a variety of beer choices across these establishments, culminating in a visit to The Broken Seal Tap Room in Stevenage.

I spent two days exploring Cambridge’s pubs, starting at the Kingston Arms and working my way through a wide mix of historic and characterful venues. It was great to meet CAMRA members Alistair, Will and Ingvar along the way. Each stop offered something different, from railway heritage at the Old Ticket Office to revived locals like the Royal Standard and Devonshire Arms. I also visited The Bank Micropub, a cosy former bank focused on good ale and conversation. I enjoyed a strong range of cask ales, ciders and keg beers throughout, with day two adding brewpubs, taprooms and a trip out to Northstowe. https://micropubadventures.co.uk/2026/04/04/03-04-26-04-04-26-cambridge/
