Day 2 in Cambridge and we came to see Jane's cousin. And who'd know that round the corner was a Milton pub. Large horseshoe pub. One half is town like, one half is booth based and more modern. I like it.

The pub is found in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, CB4 1NG.

In High Street it re-opened in April 2013 after being closed for two years so becoming Milton Brewery's second pub in the city. There are a number of separate drinking areas: one either side of the door, a snug (with bar access), and another room off to one side. To the left of the bar the ceiling has been raised to expose the rafters.

We have visited this pub 3 times, seen 19 different beers and tried 9 of them.
