😋 My True Foodie Love List for Cambridge
Even though my days in Cambridge were filled with case studies, social events, and last-minute PPTs that made me want to pull my hair out, I stuck to one principle—assignments could be procrastinated, but meals had to be savored. Today, I’m sharing my personal Cambridge restaurant guide—all tried and tested, honest reviews (and hey, if anyone wants to treat me to a meal, I won’t say no 😏). 🍴 Fitzbillies A Cambridge classic. No exaggeration—their Chelsea Bun was the only thing during my MBA that could convince the whole class without a single slide. Tip: Pair it with a Flat White while watching professors walk by and wondering if they’re rushing to finish their papers. Downside: It’s always packed, especially on weekends. Feels like all the dessert lovers in the UK crowd in here. 🍴 The Cambridge Chop House Their steak and pies are a true tribute to your stomach. Our MBA graduation dinner was held here—everyone raised a glass saying “Keep in touch,” but we all ended up connecting on LinkedIn the very next day. Tip: Book in advance, especially for large groups. The grilled lamb chops are a must-try. 🍴 MillWorks This was my sanctuary during mid-thesis anxiety. The river view is amazing, and the food is on the healthier side—so you can enjoy guilt-free. Highly recommend their wood-fired pizza. The moment that cheese stretches, I almost believe my data analysis could go that smoothly too.😁 🍴 Aromi Located in the city center, it serves Italian-style pizza, sandwiches, and desserts. Affordable and quick—perfect for squeezing in a bite between classes. Tip: The Pistachio Croissant deserves to go viral. Stuffed with rich pistachio cream, it’s sweet enough to make you forget about failing an exam.👌 🍴 Pint Shop Great beer and snacks—the fried cauliflower and chicken wings are my go-to while chatting and gossiping with classmates.😊 You’ll often run into PhD students here sipping beer and discussing quantum physics, making you wonder if you’ve tuned into the wrong channel. 📌 A Few Tips from Your Foodie Senior 1️⃣ Dining in Cambridge isn’t cheap overall, but lunch menus are generally more affordable than dinner.😂 2️⃣ Always book in advance on weekends and during peak tourist seasons (especially graduation season). 3️⃣ Don’t just stay in the city center—explore eateries in nearby towns like Granchester’s Orchard Tea Garden. It feels like stepping into a British drama!😊 #CambridgeUniversity #StudyInTheUK #CambridgeAdmissions #StudentEats #UKMasters
