| The Castle was much quieter than the city centre pubs. Situated up a hill, it's an Adnams house with a limited selection of their ales plus a guest. Adnams Bitter, Broadside, Ghost Ship, Lighthouse & Old Ale were joined by Fuller's London Pride. A few people were wandering in for food and were being served fairly quickly. I was expecting a little better from this pub which has been in the Good Beer Guide regularly over the last 15 years or so. But in comparison with the wealth of decent pubs in this city, I was left a little disappointed. blue_scrumpy - 27 Jan 2020 20:30 |
| Pleasant Adnams pub, just across the river from the tourist mayhem of the city centre. Nice pint of Adnams Fat Sprat. Aztecgoat - 6 May 2018 09:37 |
| Rambling pubs are great ! Certainly middle class, but its not alone. Beer range was great again, Ghost Ship very good, Broadside average, Konig Pils lovely. The imported (I hope) German beers are a big plus, as are the cheap burgers. Wonderful pub. mtaylor40 - 17 Jun 2013 21:43 |
| pricey, rambling kind of place. can't help thinking it's the sort of pub you'd see the vaguely upwardly mobile neighbours from george & mildred. very middle class, veering to cliquey, attracting that class of person who goes straight from school age to middle age without an intervening period. guess that's cambridge for you. it didn't really do it for me. benscaro - 13 Jan 2013 13:08 |
| Although I was lucky enough to visit many fine pubs whilst in Cambridge, the Castle was easily the best with its friendly service, fine food and perfectly kept range of beers. The Castle is an Adnams house offering eight ales from Southwold and from further afar, including Timothy Taylor's Landlord. The Broadside was the best I have had in a long time and it was a pleasure to meet John, the Landlord who was the drummer in the Rutles, a band who parodied the Beatles' story in a 1978 comedy 'documentary' which starred Eric Idle and Neil Innes. The Castle has a nice sized bar as you walk in, with various little rooms branching off of it. here is also a first floor restaurant and a garden which backs onto the old castle mound and is a real sun trap in summer, when we actually have one. A must do if you are in Cambridge. ahscum - 1 Dec 2012 20:14 |
