About Bill's Cambridge Restaurant

Bill's Cambridge Restaurant is a British restaurant at 34-35 Green St in Cambridge, where the bottomless pancakes arrive with whipped cream and berries and the staff refill them on request. The menu runs through breakfast, brunch and lunch, and Bill's big brunch is an all-day breakfast for anyone who wants it later in the day. The brunch burger comes with avocado smash, bacon and a fried egg, with salted chips on the side. Gluten-free choices are part of the menu, and the evening offering adds dinner and cocktails. The restaurant is open daily, and dogs are welcome.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often point to the pancakes, especially the bottomless version, which one diner found delicious and generous enough that only one serving each was finished. Another says the pancakes can lack filling but staff are quick to bring more. Close behind are the burger and fries, with one reviewer praising a thick, non-dry patty and salted chips, and the all-day breakfast, called classic with no bad surprises. Service draws frequent praise as friendly and attentive, including handling a child's dairy intolerance without fuss. Food consistency is the recurring complaint. One found the pancakes dry, as if left on a hotplate, and the waiter replaced them and deducted them from the bill. Others describe uneven pancakes, a rubbery, overcooked shawarma, tiny avocado toast and smoked salmon portions, and salty or under-salted dishes. One reviewer reports a rust-like residue inside a teapot, and another says a full English arrived without black pudding and the waiter dismissed the concern. The chilled ambience and a quiet corner table for two earn mention, as does a fresh plate of pancakes brought out without argument.

  • Jenny Seaward
    “I had an amazing meal recently! The team was super friendly and really attentive, especially Fiona, who made sure we had everything we needed. They were fantastic with my daughter's dairy intolerance, sharing great options without a fuss. The food, drinks, and atmosphere were spot on, and I couldn't fault the service or cleanliness. Definitely a place I'll be coming back to!”
  • Maija
    “Mediocre food but nice chilled ambience. Okay lunch overall. The food was average. The avocado toast with eggs tasted fine but was quite small. An add-on of smoked salmon portion was just a table spoon. The shawarma however was really disappointing. Very rubbery and overcooked chicken. The ambience in the restaurant is very nice though. We had a lovely private table for two in a quiet corner. Overall we enjoyed having a little break in a chilled setting on a hot day.”
  • Nadia Taylor
    “Went for breakfast and had the unlimited pancakes which were delicious! We only managed one serving each as they were very generous portions. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive.”
