Adnams Bitter in excellent condition and I seem to remember at £2.65 sensibly priced. Food was OK and welcome warm. Closes mid-afternoon, but not a problem for us.

I totally agree with edchambers 330p is a shocking price for a pint of Broadside.I also went to the Regal in Cambridge and had a pint of Augustinians from the Nethergate brewery down the road at Clare in Suffolk and paid 205p for a decent beer.Right it is the biggest JDW pub in England and they sell cheap beer but I am agast at the atitude of these people who seem to think they can charge 330p for a pint of beer .One to avoid .

Always a favourite when I visit Cambridge, but on this occasion I was shocked to be charged £3.30 for a pint of Broadside. £3.30!! On the previous day I paid just 69p more for a very good bottle of South African shiraz (admittedly on special offer) at my local Sainsbury's. It's being said more and more- no wonder people are turning to the supermarket for their booze. People bleat on about Labour adding 4p a pint in duty in their last budget making price rises inevtable etc etc but the fact is that on the same visit to Cambridge I bought a pint of Old Empire, 5.7% premium ale, at Wetherspoons for £2.05. Presumably Wetherspoons are making approfit on this, and when you consider that they have to buy in their beern from a middleman whereas The Castle is serving beer from Adnams' own brewery you begin to see that the strategy seems to be to turn their backs on people who actually care about the price of their pint. Enough to say, I'd never stay here for more than one drink.

Good range of beer, several from Adnams but also a range of guest ale. Pleasant pub with beer garden out the back - definitely has that Adnams feel about it. Also does good food

Just across the road from The County Arms this is the only Adnams pub in Cambridge. A good range of Adnams beers and guests available; The Bitter, Broadside, Explorer, East Green, Wherry, Landlord, London Pride & Butcombe Gold. Another expensive pub like The County across the road. We chose to eat here and it is quite a pub cum restaurant. This certainly fits Adnams new ideal pub image. It's funny though that Adnams were unable to sell the 9 pubs that they no longer want in East Anglia. The pub was pretty packed on a Friday night but we still found a table on the second floor. The food was good and our small party all appreciated. From the second floor you can overlook the packed sun terrace. This was very popular on a warm Friday night.
