A
pub in
Cambridge,
UK. It is located on Bridge Street, opposite the entrance to
St John's College's
North Court Gate.
The
pub itself is reasonably small and the interior is
sparse. The walls are a
murky brown colour, and the wooden board floor something similar. That may sound
oppressive and
dingy, but actually gives the space a
cosy feel. At the front there are tables by the windows which face a large
open fire, which is
perpetually lit in the
winter- very
soothing.
As far as
beer goes, it's a
standard Greene King establishment.
Grolsch is the
lager of choice and there is a very large selection of
ales.
Guinness is
a tad expensive at £2.50 (Aug, 2001) per
pint.
A write-up on the
Cambridge node suggests the The Mitre is one of the
best pubs in the City. It is certainly in that
league.
