Calverley's Brewery — Restaurant in Cambridge

Small size, LARGE QUALITY! A true neighborhood brewery that prides itself on quality and offers a variety of custom ales. The Farmhouse Trip Ale is the best ale I’ve had in the UK, by far! Delicious!

The brewery site itself is located in a small neighborhood off the beaten path of the Cambridge city center but a close walk from the eclectic stores of Mill Road and worth the walk! The brewery is tucked up against the train tracks which allows you to feel the authentic UK experience of trains passing by in a low rumble that you notice occasionally but isn’t loud or annoying (part of the fun experience). The experience inside is very simple and focuses on the beer inside. The site does offer good food but gooses to limit its offerings as the focus is meant to reside on the brews.

Outdoor seating is available whenever possible; the location has polite notices to be mindful of the neighbours, but the crowd that the brewery attracts should not be a concern - the atmosphere is very friendly and calm.

Overall very good experience for drinks and a bite whenever possible, thanks to the offer from the participating food trucks. The concept is a success and they have...

The formula is simple: great beer + great food, but Calverley’s is really something special.

Situated at the end of Hooper Street by the railway track (just follow the large chalkboard marked ‘Beer’) - you’ll find a no-frills tap room serving, in my opinion, the best beer in Cambridge.

The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and won’t hesitate to offer you advice and tasters. There’s a varying beer menu and option for wine by the glass, alongside an excellent selection of visiting street food vans. Highly...
