About Cambridge

Cambridge is a compact city and within a few minutes’ walk of Browns there is a whole variety of things to see and do.
Almost directly opposite us on Trumpington Street is the remarkable and internationally famous Fitzwilliam Museum. For a completely different experience, on a warm and sunny day head to the river to hire a punt – the quintessential Cambridge activity.
The historic colleges are good to look at by foot as well as from the river, and a walk around Cambridge is rewarding in itself. You can increase the rewards by popping into some of Cambridge’s many shops.
And make sure you stop by at Browns Cambridge for a fortifying drink and a delicious meal once you’re done; it’s the ideal way to end a day in this beautiful city.
