Usual Cafe Nero. This one is very busy as on Kings Parade. I was able to get a place to sit in the cafe. Would be great if there was a time limit on people staying there. Seemed to be full of students on their laptops and empty coffee caps. Also didn't know you had to get a number to use the loo.

Food and atmosphere is great but service is very poor. I have never seen such rude staff ever at Cafe Nero. I am not surprised with 3.9 rating as you have only because of cafe Nero good coffee and food else it will be 1 with current staff. Because of amazing location, this works well.

Caffe Nero is my place to go for a quick coffee fix on the way somewhere:) Their coffee is not something special or awesome but always of good and steady quality. It’s a well know chain so for me there is also a feeling of familiarity - I know what to expect and what to order. Very conveniently located. A bit too pricey, not especially cozy but overall nice.

I had the pleasure of encountering a truly remarkable barista today, and I must say, he was not only cute and handsome but also incredibly skilled at his craft. From the moment I placed my order, his warm smile and friendly demeanor made me feel special and welcomed. As he artfully prepared my coffee, his attention to detail was evident. The flavors and aromas that emanated from my cup were nothing short of exquisite, surpassing my expectations. It was evident that he took pride in his work, and his passion for creating a perfect cup of coffee was contagious. The care he put into every step of the process was reflected in the beautiful presentation and the delightful taste. In that moment, I truly felt like I was savoring a work of art. This charming barista's dedication and talent made my day, and I am grateful for the experience.

Visited here a few times but today the barrista was very rude. I had already ordered and did not receive a receipt with the toilet code on it. When I came to the till to ask for the code. The barrista ignored me for 10 minutes then when I caught her eye I asked politely for the code. She then said in a very rude way. 'Are you a customer?' I'm 6 months pregnant and her behaviour made me feel very uncomfortable. This has really put me off visiting the cafe. Would be helpful if they actually gave you the receipts with the codes on them!

A caffe with lovely view just in front of the King´s College Chapel. I had a tasty chai latte (spicy, sweet, gave me all the energy I needed) and my hubby had a small and strong espresso, both to our liking. We managed to sit outide which is priceless because of the view. Prices are quite high but given the location, I can understand that.

Place is beautiful and really in nice spot, but only 2 starts for poor service. Barista didn't listen the order. Made a several mistake and argued that he was told something else. In the end the drink which I've order to seat in was served in take away cup and half empty and the other would be a total different drink if Barista wouldn't be corrected while preparing drink. Disappointed to pay 4£ for each drink and got it all wrong. When my friend came back with his half empty cup to get it right the staff seemed to be annoyed. Sad that half od team is trying their best and it's spoiled for other half.

Dreadful, appalling treatment by young man with glasses who clearly has an oversized EGO, a persona quite disconcerting!.Extremely rude to me & gross slander of my name gossiping between staff and discriminating. There are members of this establishment or to be more realistic ‘maffia’, twined themselves who are always too eager to illegally ban customers for no wrong doing!. Nero needs to pull it’s socks up and train the staff, where are good old people skills?, where is respect gone for the customer, really shameful behaviour, begs the question whether these individuals actually like the job?. My case raised years ago got swept under the carpet!!!. Covering each others backs in the place of ‘truth’, and self grooming individuals who are bereft of any sense of honour!.

Visiting Cambridge to see family (Sunday am 7/11/2021). We popped in for a coffee and we were met by the server, a young man wearing glasses. He was incredibly rude and discourteous and appeared to have no social skills whatsoever. He spoke to my elderly mother in an extremely condescending manner. Fortunately, this was the only rude person we met in Cambridge.

Best coffee shop in Cambridge! The staff know how to make my coffee of choice, a dry cappuccino, which is not always the case with other chains. They are friendly and attentive, and work very hard, as it can get very busy, which is another indication it is good. The view of Kings College Chapel is outstanding, the atmosphere is relaxing. The Pastries are excellent too. If your visiting Cambridge for the first time or a local, I would recommend this Nero’s without hesitation.

Back when this vaults was a really nice cocktail bar. Haven't been here in a while and boy it's taken a dive. The cocktails where great a bit pricey, the bar staff friendly, but the physical premises has seen better days. The men's toilet top 5 worst toilets I've ever been had the displeasure of using. 1 urinal full to the brim with piss and a dead fly floating in it, and given how quiet it was at the time, that wasn't from that evening. Cubicals locks broken and graffiti everywhere.

Fond memories of this riverside pub from 30 years ago. Sadly on a late afternoon in November the atmosphere was flat, the place was not particularly clean, empties left on the tables, and taps not working in the toilets. Staff were fairly indifferent. Signs pinned to walls complaining about 'non-customer' use of facilities, and blaming them for maintenance issues do not lend an inviting air to the place. External area would be nice in summer
