Quick info
About Eagle
The Eagle sits on Bene't Street in Cambridge, a pub and restaurant housed in one of the city's older buildings. The kitchen covers a familiar pub range, with Sunday roasts, fish and chips, and burgers running alongside the daily menu. Dogs are welcome throughout the front bar, making it a stop for walkers and locals out with their pets. The room keeps the feel of a neighbourhood pub, with a long bar and seating that stretches through the building. Service runs at the counter, and the team will sort out any issue on the spot, including a refund when a plate falls short. It opens through the week for lunches and evenings.

Customer Review Summary
The reviews split sharply between atmosphere and food. Two diners single out fish and chips as the highlight, praising the batter and freshness, while three reviewers describe the Sunday roast as dried-out, reheated meat and potatoes, with one saying the food looked scraped from other plates; that diner reports receiving a prompt refund. Several reviewers call the staff welcoming and the space atmospheric.

“Fish and chips sipariş ettim ve bayıldım. Balık’ta patateste muhteşemdi. Sıcak, taze, hızlı ve çok lezzetli geldi. İngiltere seyahati yapıyorsanız ve fish and chips deneyimlemek istiyorsanız ilk adresiniz olsun derim.”
- Eve Light
“For drinks, it’s atmospheric. For food, avoid avoid. We ordered two roasts, a fish and chips and a burger. They were inedible - the roast was like scraps scraped off other plates and microwaved. We said we would need a refund as soon as we saw the food and were given one immediately. Very thankful for that. Maybe a sign it has happened before.”

“El peor Sunday roast que he comido en UK. Patatas y carne secas, recalentadas y con fecha de elaboración dudosa... no volveré (Además de unas mesas sucias, que hay que pedir 3 veces que las limpien...)”
- Mount Sappho
“350 years without learning how to cook! Worst Sunday Roast I've ever had. Reheated meat, and potatoes as old as the pub (see picture)”
