The Old Bicycle Shop – occupying Howes Cycles’ old Regent Street spot – is getting a makeover. After nearly a decade of business, the bar and restaurant is freshening up with a new menu – one that’s more sustainably sourced and plant-based. Available 12 September, the new autumn offerings include a pumpkin ravioli with mushrooms, shallots and seeds; a seared salmon fillet served with spinach and gnocchi; as well as spiced plums topped with vanilla ice cream and crushed amaretti. The Old Bicycle Shop offers all-day dining both indoors and out, as well as private hire for special occasions. Old Bicycle Shop, 104 Regent Street, SHINY NEW BIKE

Three’s a crowd-pleaser A newcomer to Cambridge’s Bridge Street, Three Joes – named for its founding trio – specialises in sourdough pizza. Each Neapolitan-style pie is made from scratch from fermented Caputo flour, Maldon salt, Glastonbury cheese and a range of tasty toppings. Three Joes offers vegetarian and vegan options, plant-based pizzas, plus salads and slaws for gluten-free patrons. Pair your meal with craft beer, cocktails, mocktails or a milkshake. There’s something for everyone – even little ones, thanks to its under-eight kids’ menu. Three Joes prides itself on being open to all; a place for the ‘average Joe’ to enjoy a well-made meal at a decent price. Three Joes, 14-15 Bridge Street, Cambridge CB2 1UF threejoes.co.uk
