This is a regular for my wife and I, my friends and I, and a bunch of strangers and I. It's a homey atmosphere, with no attitude from the servers. It's a pub, so keep the expectations appropriate. They do pub-style well, and have some of the best bartenders in the area. Their beer selection can't be beat in Cambridge and prices are among the fairest. It's official - this is my "regular".
- Order: Beers - Guinness, Kronenburg
- What they do, they do well

One of the best UK-style pubs in the region, they blend English classics from both the good ol' days to the modern curry invasion. The Chicken Curry is the best I've had since moving to Cambridge over a year ago, far better than any Indian restaurant I've visited. The Butter Chicken could've been less saucy, but was excellent. If only they used real naan bread instead of trying to pass off pocketless pitas as naan.
Service is always good - food was hot, beers were cold. A great Friday night of hearty food. - Order: Chicken Curry, Butter Chicken
- Nice spot, but so slow.

I've been here a few times, and will (I'm sure) go back again. It's become really a 'change of scenery' place for myself and a few friends.
The beer selection is great, and the food is alright. The problem with this place is that it's so slow. If you've got a little bit of patience, I'd say give it a try..... if not, take a pass.

Myself and 2 of my friends go there every Friday for Perogies and they are the best I have ever eaten. Our server is usually Nicole and she is great. She always makes sure that we have our food in time knowing that we have to go back to work in 1 hour. I speak for myself and my 2 friends when I say that we will not change our routine and will continue to go there every Friday if for nothing but to see Nicole's smile and a coffee.

The Badger is what it is. I've been coming here for beers for YEARS, and the menu hasn't changed much-but they do pub grub well. We come here as a team atleast twice a month.
The fries with curry sauce isn't really curry sauce at all-more of a vindaloo sauce (could be pataks) but is still good. The butter chicken has bell peppers in it which is a bit odd to me.
Wings are great-and 2 for 1 on Mondays and a variety of sauces. Nachos are piled high and lovely.
Julie is fantastic and always friendly and attentive. - Order: 5 pitchers (Tennents I think?) Nachos, wings. butter chicken, fries with curry sauce, jalapeno poppers, caesar salad.

I come here regularly to have a drink and often have food. The food is very good, best bar food you can get. I think every day there's a special meal, my personal favourite would be the Prime Rib dinner which comes with a heap of mashed potatoes, vegetables, and a thick delicious slab of prime rib with a side of horse radish of course. Sometimes it's very busy so you might feel like it takes a while to get around to you but the girls there are real sweethearts that will treat you right.

I ordered the taco salade. It was cold when they served it, and the sour cream tasted like mayonnaise. It was poor tasting. I did notice that no body else was ordering food. I think it is more of a place to go for a drink. The waitress was not friendly at all. I was left feeling like I was an inconvenience.
