Pubs & Bars
Red Lion

On the outskirts of Cambridge, in picturesque Cherry Hinton, you'll find this gem of a pub. Expect pool, darts, children's play area, real ales, live music, a wood burning stove and of course, plenty of live sport on TV. The perfect place to roar Cambridge United onto glory of a Sunday afternoon.
The Alma
Cambridge
The place to head in Cambridge if you're desperate to watch some live rugby with some fellow scrum enthusiasts. When heading down to the Alma you can always expect plenty of real ale options, a menu packed with pub classics and exceptional live music to once the day's sport has finished. Highly recommended.
