After being acquired by Chestnut Inns back in March, The Rupert Brooke reopened its doors on 16 October to the delight of locals and foodies from far and wide.
Locally sourced food, great service and stylish interiors – yet which reflect the pub’s heritage – are top of the agenda for Chestnut Inns, who have already turned The Packhorse Inn, Moulton, into a thriving, top quality gastro-pub (we’ve been there for Sunday lunch and can vouch for it!).
Philip Turner of Chestnut Inns commented:
“The Rupert Brooke’s position in Grantchester – rural, historic, with literary links and yet within walking distance of central Cambridge – perfectly fits the key criteria of ‘location, location, location’. The rest of the ingredients, a creative outlook and an experienced team to make it work, are what Chestnut Inns are all about.”
The newly-revitalised pub features an open plan kitchen, a pretty conservatory dining room, an extensive bar area and an upper floor private dining Club Room with access to roof terraces.
The gardens overlooking the Grantchester Meadows and the footpath to Cambridge will be restored for next spring.
