Great places to grab a bite in Cambridge

The University City of Cambridge is the perfect destination to visit on a weekend. There are numerous historic attractions and great shopping along with plenty of fine restaurants and outlets to enjoy a great meal.

It is best to make your hotel reservations in advance especially during the months of May – June, when the hotels in Central Cambridge are packed with revellers and tourists, who drop along to join the celebrations in the city after the exams.

One of the best places to stay in Central Cambridge is The Tamburlaine Hotel, a fine 4 star accommodation that is located in the heart of the city. Some of the best places to enjoy a meal at in Cambridge are:

Aromi: It is a popular eating joint with locals as well as visitors to Cambridge. On a Sunday afternoon you will probably need to queue up to get a table. It would be ideal if you could make your reservations in advance to avoid a long wait. They offer a fine spread of Italian delicacies that include cannoli, focaccia, ricotta brownies, paninos and lots of varieties of sumptuous ice creams to choose from. It is one place you definitely need to visit on an empty stomach. It is ideal to have a meal at, or order a pick-up to enjoy a Sunday picnic at any of the wooded areas on a sunny afternoon in the city.

6 Ice Cream: It is another of those fabulous eateries that is concealed in a cosy spot on Bene't Street, which is a great place to visit if you are foodie. 6 Ice Cream is incredibly popular and packed with patrons most days of the week. With stylish interiors, a warm and cosy ambience and a titillating range of ice-creams and other delicacies, it is a much sought after destination when you feel like indulging yourself in a sweet treat. Try their signature Cambridge Cream that comes infused with salted pistachios, lavender and orange sorbet. Definitely a place to visit when in the area!
