The Open Guide to Cambridge - Differences between Version 7 and Version 6 of Fort St George

The Fort St George In England (to give it its full name) is a historic pub, situated on the edge of Midsummer Common. The old sprawling pub building appears much larger from the outside than from within. It has three rooms of differing sizes and styles: the large open wooden-floored bar area, a traditional dark snug, and a light (dining) room, with windows overlooking the river. It includes a large pleasant pub garden, on two sides, and a substantial covered area overlooking the Common. In the evening, and especially during events at the common, and during the high summer, the pub can become rowdy and unpleasant. During many events on the common, such as Midsummer Fair, the pub often closes to avoid trouble. During afternoons and early evenings, however, the pub can be a rather pleasant place to drink, particularly if you are unused to Greene King ales. Local to many of the houseboat residents on the Cam.

Comment from Kake: Their food menu looks interesting.
