I NDE P ENDENT OF THE MONTH
one purpose, and it fits particularly well into village life, where people might want to pick up cards and gifts while they eat their lunch, or pick up a snack when they’re browsing for something for their home. “The other plus,” adds Caroline, “is even if we’re not busy, the fact there’s lots to look at and do means there’s always a good atmosphere here. Over the years, we’ve become a really central part of village life, with lots of loyal regular customers we’ve got to know really well.” The Geographer is no more than two miles from Cambridge city centre, so it’s within easy strolling or biking distance – as well as being very close to the guided busway for city dwellers who fancy a jaunt into the country for some coffee and cake. David and Caroline also regularly open the doors in the evenings to run special events or courses, such as watercolour workshops, cake making, wine tasting and flower arranging. They’re planning an extension to the building so they can expand this side of the business – and it will give them the space for more seating in the cafe, too. So, now spring is well on the way, why not venture out the city and make a trip to Impington? You can be sure there’ll be a warm welcome, a mouthwatering slice of cake and a fantastic coffee waiting for you at The Geographer if you do. l
