What is it? Hands down the fanciest place to eat in Cambridge.
Why go? Midsummer House is a two-Michelin-starred restaurant right by the River Cam. It’s famous enough to have its own Wiki page, and its head chef is Daniel Clifford. If you can afford to go, it serves insanely pretty portions of French-inspired food. Midsummer House is where you go when nothing but pure decadence will do (and if you get an invite, all the better).
Time Out tip: Can’t quite fork out £280 per head for the evening tasting menu? The lunch menu is half the price.
Address: Midsummer House, Midsummer Common, Cambridge CB4 1HA
Opening hours: Wed–Sat noon–1.30pm, 6.30pm–8.30pm
Expect to pay: £105 per head without drinks
