Fitzbillies - Cambridge

Delicious coffee and a wonderful selection of cake etc. to choose.

The food is great. I never had such a fulfilling brunch without being that greasy or too fried. I am so happy to spend my money here

A good coffee and a delicious Chelsea bun. Service was a bit slow and we were lucky to be there before the rush. Hope to return.

A very strangely polarised meal in terms of quality. The best cheese toastie I have ever eaten, accompanied by a “super food” side salad completely undressed and so dry and inedible that even my husband (who’ll eat anything) admitted defeat. No dressing was available on request. So odd.

We visited the Trumpington Street branch for afternoon tea and were extremely disappointed with the experience. Priced at 23.99 per person, we had high expectations but unfortunately, everything fell short. The fresh mint tea I ordered was served in a tiny pot and I had to make it last the entire meal as refills were not offered. The sandwiches were dry and missing one of the advertised fillings (ham and mustard). After sending it back, we received a second batch with flaked ham but still no mustard. The selection of cakes was overly sweet and lacked variety, although the fruit scones were a highlight. We felt overcharged, especially when a 10% tip was automatically added to the bill without our consent. Despite voicing our concerns, there was no effort made to rectify the situation. Overall, it was a disappointing and expensive experience, and we will not be returning to Fitzbillies nor recommending it to others. With the same amount of money, we could have enjoyed a much better three-course meal elsewhere.
