Cambridge Edition May 2024 - Web

FOOD EDITION

Running from 10 to 12 May , the Eddington Beer Garden will be returning following a hugely successful inaugural event last year. Free to attend, head on down to Eddington Square as the space comes to life with a pop-up outdoor experience. Guests can expect a standout bar showcasing the produce of local breweries, distillers and suppliers, accompanied by a tantalising selection from Cambridgeshire’s best- loved street food trucks. In addition, enjoy garden games, tasting sessions, plus a lively programme of entertainment and community performances. Later this month, charming countryside pub The Tickell Arms in Whittlesford will be hosting its own event from the evening of Friday 24 to 26 May . With over 25 real ales and ciders to choose from, attendees can also enjoy live music and street food. If beer’s not your thing, there will be a gin and Pimm’s bar. BEER FESTIVALS GALORE!

Monster brunch The Garden House Brunch returns on 18 May , offering diners the chance to indulge in a three- course menu in a tasteful riverside setting. There’s a mouth-watering selection of dishes, including English muffins with smoked salmon, poached eggs and hollandaise sauce, buttermilk fried chicken served with French toast, or Garden House granola with berries and yoghurt as a healthier option. Best of all, guests can enjoy free-flowing cocktails, prosecco or bottled beer and a live DJ channelling that feel-good vibe with house music and club anthems playing throughout the day. Served from 12.30pm to 2pm or 3pm to 4.30pm, tickets are priced at £55 per person. Find out more at gardenhousecambridge.co.uk

CHEERS TO 50 YEARS! Cambridge Beer Festival returns to Jesus Green from 20 to 25 May The city’s favourite knees-up, this year’s Cambridge Beer Festival is extra special. “We’re delighted to be celebrating our 50th anniversary and this year’s festival will be better than ever,” says organiser Anthony Mobbs. Buoyed by the success of last year’s event following a three-year hiatus – due to the pandemic’s impact on the hospitality industry – a dedicated team of volunteers have been hard at work selecting and ordering an unparalleled array of beverages. “We’re looking forward to trying some of the best beer, cider, wine and mead from around the UK and beyond.” Head to cambridgebeerfestival.com to check opening times and ticket prices.
