Quick info
About Panton Arms
The Panton Arms is a pub on Panton Street in Cambridge. Dogs are welcome inside, so walkers and their companions can settle in alongside other drinkers. The pub trades under a single straightforward category, working as a neighbourhood local for people living and working on the surrounding streets rather than as a venue built around any one specialism. Drinkers arrive at the bar to order, and the room serves those looking for an ordinary pub visit close to home.

Customer Review Summary
The ales are the draw, with one visitor counting four cask ales plus more on tap and describing a bartender who spontaneously offered a taster during a question about one of them. Outside seating away from the city centre crowds and strong wifi in the garden also come up. One reviewer found no food available, was pointed to delivery apps instead, and wants the food photos taken down.

“Very welcoming pub, 4 cask ales,plus more on tap, very friendly and chatty man behind the bar proactively /spontaneously offered a taster when I asked about one of the ales, and I wasn't actually asking to taste it, just asking to clarify what type if beer it was. Great wifi even outside in the garden Music on (inside one of the bars ) when I was there but plenty of seating outside. Really lovely pub”
- Adam Hutter
“Nice pub. Outside seating near city centre but away from the crowds”
- Tim Cajarc
“Beers good, a quiet pub with no food ("but you can order in with uber..."). Thus disappointing. Photos of food need to be taken off and some more up-to-date commentaries / reviews added. Perhaps the atmosphere improves when there are lots of drinkers there but with 3 people around a table outside and nobody inside at 6pm on a Sunday I don't think I can give it more than a 2. No food no stars.”
