ONES TO WATCH

NEW FOR 2021

Ones to Watch THE EATERIES AND ENTERPRISES

ast year is going to be remembered as

one that brought the hospitality sector to its knees. Decimated revenues and huge job losses were the miserable shock waves of national lockdowns and restrictions, but in spite of the tough climate, Cambridge’s food and drink scene continued to expand and grow. New eateries – including Thrive and Giggling Squid – arrived and became instant hits, while much-loved Cambridge brands such as The Linton Kitchen and Jack’s Gelato cemented their success with second branches. The food delivery market got interesting, too, with Foodstuff launching as an independent- focused rival to Deliveroo, and Click It Local bringing the best of the indie high street direct to our doorsteps. Looking ahead to this year, things are about to get even more exciting, with some fantastic new food businesses heading our way. Say hello to the rising culinary stars of 2021…

WE PREDICT WILL BE STEPPING UP TO THE PLATE TO SHAPE CAMBRIDGE’S FOOD SCENE IN 2021
