Let me preface this review by saying this place was a second choice after realizing the Smoke Shop would be an additional 30+ minute wait on a Wednesday night at 7:30pm. We were starving so off to the CBC! My SO and I dined here with another couple and they are known for their Beer selection. Sadly our waitress informed us that they were actually out of several of their favorite beers. Womp womp. Well luckily I wasn't planning on ordering a drink anyway. The other couple ordered 2 different beer flights and that's great that they have that option for you to sample several different types and figure out what type(s) you like the most! As for the food, the experience was pretty run of the mill for my CBC burger. It was filling, but nothing too memorable. The fries were also quite bland. My SO ordered the poutine appetizer (as a meal) and it came out as a larger size than expected! Granted most of it were thick cut bland fries topped with some meat. The other couple ordered the fish and chips and a large pumpkin ravioli (1/2 order comes with 4). One major point of discomfort was definitely how close the tables and seats were together so my chair was probably almost touching the back of the table behind us. I felt bad for one of the male patrons that was completely spilling out of a table meant for 2 but it looked like he was also dining by himself. I like to have my own elbow room while dining and we are in Cambridge, not Boston so I wasn't expecting this scare of real estate.

Nice large space would be good for happy hours of moderately sized groups. We enjoyed trying the flight of beers. The ‘taste the rainbow’ tastes more like juice or kombucha. We liked the IPAs. We did not try any of the food here but it seemed consistent with Cambridge pub food. I’d come back here. CBC would be better if the flight tasting cards were designed so that the labels were wide enough to actually align with the beers (right now there is a CBC logo that is a bit unnecessary and takes up space). The menu also list types of glasses rather than volume for the beers, which can be difficult to interpret. There are two doors to get to the bathroom so you have to use your hands to open the second door. It would be nice if they either put a trash can near the door to open with a paper towel and discard or a foot pull to reduce exposure if other people haven’t washed their hands as thoroughly

I tried 5 of their beers and not a big fan. And the food menu wasnt impressive. The waiter didnt give an approximate response when I asked how long the pizza take since we were in a hurry. Calamari had yellow bell peppers mixed into it which was strange. Spinach artichoke pizza was too heavy.
