Eat and drink

Our quintessentially English brasserie restaurant

At Parker’s Tavern, every dish is a whimsical re-imagining of a British classic, sourced from field, fen and England's seas. This is where you will find plates piled high with Norfolk fruits de mer or suckling pig with wild mushrooms, and our special spaghetti bolognese. You can taste England on every plate.

The Bar

As an old coaching inn, Parker’s Tavern has been a meeting spot for over a hundred years. The inventiveness of our cocktail list is matched only by a famously well-stocked wine cellar. Then and now, the Bar is a place where meetings are concluded with a round of drinks, where stories are told late into the evening in the company of friends and stiff nightcaps.

The Restaurant

Borne of feasting, yet of our time, our restaurant is a meeting place, a confluence of old and new, where university hall meets velvet-upholstered club. From early in the morning until late at night, Parker’s Tavern hums with conversation, with waiters carrying plates piled high with delicious food.

Monday-Sunday, 12:30pm - 5pm

Afternoon Tea

Cambridge has given the world more great literature per square mile than perhaps any other city on earth. In their time, preeminent authors have paced along every side street, canal path and cobbled courtyard. Afternoon tea at Parker’s Tavern is inspired by the city’s literary legacy, inflected with a maverick pastry chef’s creative passion.
