Midsummer House

Creative · ★★ Michelin

££££

In an idyllic location overlooking Midsummer Common, inside an equally beautiful Victorian house, you'll find this stylish, long-standing restaurant. Over 20 years into its lifetime, the dishes are continually evolving thanks to a kitchen which is not afraid to push the boundaries. Every course is packed full of personality and originality, especially the stand-out desserts like delicious coconut parfait served in a mock-coconut shell made of Nyangbo chocolate. Luxury ingredients are generously used, flavours are measured and there’s an appealing range of different textures.

Restaurant Twenty-Two

Modern Cuisine · ★ Michelin

££££

This Victorian townhouse has hosted a restaurant for many years and has long been a feature of Cambridge’s dining scene. Its current guardians are Sam and Alex, who have really made it their own. Sam’s food is poised, detailed and very precise, with his technical skill shining through in beautifully presented dishes such as roasted quail with a buttery vin jaune sauce. The house has a bright, understated style and the enthusiastic service team – who explain the make-up of the dishes in full – keep the atmosphere welcoming and relaxed.

Fancett's

Classic French

££

The vibrant Mill Road is a focal point for Cantabrigians looking for everything from independent eateries to small antique shops, and this friendly restaurant brings a generous dose of enthusiasm to the area. The eponymous Dan Fancett and his team demonstrate both great care and skilled craft in their preparation of generously portioned dishes that are French to their core, such as the terrific twice-baked cheddar soufflé and the pear tarte Tatin for dessert.

Vanderlyle

Vegetarian

£££

A large, open-plan kitchen takes centre stage at Vanderlyle, which blends shabby chic styling with designer comfort. The well-balanced tasting menu is all about showing off the power of vegetables with imagination and creativity, along with a passion for seasonal produce – all evident in dishes like roasted wild mushrooms with Roscoff onion and Bordelaise sauce. The friendly service team run the restaurant well and the wine or soft drinks pairings enhance the experience. It’s a popular spot, so book in plenty of time.

Mercado Central

spanish

£££

Located a stone's throw from Trinity College, this brightly decorated townhouse is home to a Spanish restaurant exuding a warm, buzzy vibe – whether you admire the open-flame cooking on the ground floor or sit in the quieter upstairs dining room. Northern Spain has the largest influence on the menu, with Galicia and the Basque Country featuring prominently among dishes built around proudly sourced produce of great quality, such as wonderfully marbled presa Ibérica. Save room to finish with the 'tarta de Santiago'.

Margaret's

Modern British

£££

A labour of love from the owners behind Restaurant Twenty-Two – and located right next door – this soothing space comes with plenty of neutral tones, giving it a simple, relaxing elegance. The opening selection of breads, dips and nibbles is a brilliant way to start, featuring highlights such as a beautifully made focaccia and a creamy whipped butter bean dip. Across the menu, the vibrant cooking moves with the seasons and pushes delicious natural flavours to the fore. The wonderful service team are engaging and knowledgeable in equal measure.

Poynton and his brigade offer three lengths of set menu and the dishes shine at their simplest, when the high-quality produce provides plenty of flavour. Modern, simply furnished bedrooms are available so you can stay overnight and make your visit a real event.
