I was having a day trip to Cambridge and the weather was cold and rainy. I was looking for something hot to drink to warm up myself. This cafe is a gem. Located in the center. The hot chocolate was delicious. The service was quick and excellent. The price was great. I highly recommend it if you're in the city.

Gluten free options are pretty horrible to be honest. jam on toast is indeed not jam and not toasted bread with packets of butter. Sad experience first time in Cambridge. The cramped conditions. Harried service, not fun but it didn’t break the bank.

Legendary local coffee outlet, roasting nearby and supplying some other cafes too. Love their hardcore insistence that coffee may come in many lengths but only two forms, espresso with or without steamed milk! This is some of the best coffee in Cambridge, though; it doesn't need to be complicated 😊

Worst place to have a coffee in Cambridge. Update - After avoiding their shop in Trumpington Street, it turns out the whole chain is unbearable. They now repeatedly tried to screw me and some colleagues. It happened to a lot of us that they grind your espresso wrongly so you have to buy the entire things again. Take a look yourself: they pretended both packages were ground the same level (they obviously aren‘t) and that this was my own problem. The coffee is not particularly good and it is incredibly expensive – you even need to pay for the oat milk that you can fill in your cup by the entrance on your own haha. Even worse was my experience when buying ground espresso. Although I specified very clearly how to grind it and a (in that case very friendly) employee offered me to just come back if it doesn‘t work, an incredibly unfriendly „manager“ denied this the next day, questioning the pledge in the same shop the day before. Instead of just preparing my coffee, I thus ended up on a 1.5 hour journey to the shop where I had to argue to finally just get the ground coffee I already asked for the day before. This experience was unbearable and I certainly will not return.

I usually make it a point to get my morning coffee from here every time I am visiting Cambridge and that's because they really do make one of the best espresso and cappucino that I have had. While the roast are seasonal I have found every visit as satisfying as the last one if not better.

This was by far the worst lunch experience I've had in a long time. First off, three items on the brunch menu were unavailable, which was quite disappointing. When our food finally arrived, the poached eggs on sourdough were a sight to behold - they looked like they had been slammed onto the plate, completely bare and unappealing. My daughter's sausage sandwich was equally disappointing, arriving burning hot, tasteless, and incredibly dry. To top it all off, the woman serving at the till could certainly use a smile. While this may seem minor, it added to the overall negative experience. The food was basic and bad. It was clear that no attention or care was put into preparing it. I am extremely disappointed with my visit to Hot Numbers and will definitely not be returning. Did I mention that it was disappointing? I would also caution others against wasting their money here.

Great little place in the heart of Cambridge. Shame the same could not be said for their “famed” bacon sarnie - one of the reasons I chose to visit - or their service. Crispy bacon sarnie (listed separately to a normal one) was lukewarm, not crispy and fatty. No sauces offered or provided. Didn’t get the coffee expert vibe. Appeared disorganised. Only plusses were the scrambled eggs (which were delicious) and the look of the sandwiches. Unfortunately couldn’t send the sarnie back as we had a walking tour booked and didn’t have time.

We were staying in a nearby hotel and needed a quick breakfast and a coffee before checking out. Managed to get a table at around 08:30. The Cafe was very busy which is always a good sign. Ordered 2 cappuccinos and a sausage sandwich. Service was prompt and efficient. The coffees were very good and the sausage sandwich rates right up there with the best I have ever had. Would highly recommend Hot Numbers at Trumpington Street and will definitely visit again if ever in the vicinity.

I’ll be honest, the food was underwhelming, and not worth it imo. The eggs and avocado were pretty mid, and needed to be seasoned. The plates and cups also had an odd smell that was really off-putting. The pancakes were solid though!

If you're looking for the perfect spot in Cambridge for a cozy atmosphere, great music, and excellent breakfast, coffee, or desserts, you should definitely visit this café. The interior is beautifully decorated and immediately envelops you in a calm and cozy ambiance. Their music creates a perfect setting for relaxation or work. And their matcha? Absolutely fantastic – smooth, creamy, and perfectly balanced in flavor. The service is very friendly, and I love coming back here. This place is a great choice for anyone who wants to enjoy quality coffee and desserts in a pleasant environment. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! 🤍

We came to Cambridge for a weekend getaway and looked for a local café to try for breakfast. It was very difficult to find a table as it was very busy. Ordered food and drinks and sat at the table. I liked how you could choose the size of coffee to order in oz. The food and drink came out in a timely manner. For the food, I ordered a Bacon sandwich and Bacon and Maple Syrup Pancakes. I'll start with the sandwich. Thin streaky bacon in-between cold sourdough bread without butter. One half of the sandwich barely had any bacon in it. As for the pancakes, these were way overly cooked, dry and swimming in a pool of maple syrup. I had high hopes for this place, due to being fairly busy. Maybe it was a weekend being busy and unable to cope? But, the experience I had, wouldn't make me come back when I come to the area again. As for service, ours was good overall, however, when we sat down, there were previous people's plates and cups left on the table. The staff came over twice/three times where they could've taken them away, but did not.

The service in Hot Numbers is probably the worst I've received in any coffee shop. The staff behind the counter show no urgency while a queue of people wait to be served. They are laughing and joking and looking at their phones and quite frankly, look as if they'd rather be somewhere else. I stood in a queue of 6 people and waited a good 10 mins before I was served. I then waited a further 10 mins for my takeaway coffee which arrived luke warm. When I asked for a HOT cup of coffee (that is the name of the shop after all), there was no apology just a rather glum expression before a slightly warmer cup of coffee arrived. That's what you get for £4! Please, please train your staff on how to provide a good, speedy service - for those of us that have to get back to work!

Pet friendly cafe with nice sourdough.

I had a discouraging experience during a recent visit. I reached out to the team and Rich made everything right and apologised. I couldn’t fault their response and hence the changed review. The coffee is excellent, the staff are friendly and helpful and the atmosphere in the cafe is pleasant. Due to them being a roaster, the coffee is always spot on and has interesting flavour profiles.

Flavorful coffee and delicious breakfast/brunch options. The place can be very crowded, and a long line can form even in the early morning. This makes me very anxious and stressed whenever I dine alone… So I don’t visit very often :) but it’s definitely worth an early morning walk across the river. — No bibimbap today. I was so excited to try the new menu 😿 Turkish eggs are alright. Nicely poached egg. The chili is quite bland.. Flat white good as usual. — The new guacamole and jerky chicken sourdough tastes good. Flavorful without greasy bread. There are some fruit flies lingering though. Busy as always at noon.

The café is lovely for a quick drink, and offers some of the more decent, if not particularly impressive, coffee in Cambridge. At the same time, it can be a little inhospitable if you'd like to do anything other than stare off into space or chat as you have it — while I understand that common courtesy demands people don't take up a table for ages on end having a single drink, the moment I even attempted to plug in my laptop to book some tickets while having my coffee and toastie, I was immediately approached by a server who told me it simply wasn't allowed, at all, even for a couple of minutes, anywhere but one large, at the time unfortunately full table in the centre of the shop. I wouldn't actually have attempted had a couple of little tables like mine not had plugs underneath, and had I not seen several people in the café at the same time using laptops at them without issue — but, in retrospect, the people at the tables with laptops did all seem to be chatty with the server, so presumably different standards apply depending on how well one knows the personnel.

Disappointing bacon sandwich and not available until 8am on a Thursday morning. My previous review of this place in 2015 was really positive. Unfortunately, for whatever reason, the once-brilliant bacon sandwiches have been standardized into overpriced sadness: pre-cooked bacon and un-toasted, dry bread. Greggs would be far better, and cheaper. The coffee is good, but note that the house style is not to provide any drinks with frothed milk (eg a cappuccino). Presumably this also helps de-skill the process. Look, I get that the cost of labour and materials is high, but for me, there isn't a solution here that leaves me wanting to come back. Edit: to the reply - it's unproductively defensive and misses the point. I don't feel listened to as a customer. Other readers: interpret that as you wish.

Been coming here for years and today was a sad day. A very cold bacon sandwich with meagre amounts of re-cooked bacon, on cold bread. Expect better for £7. Thanks for the reply. If it’s freshly cooked, why was it cold? When I ordered before 8am and had to wait until 8am until the kitchen opened. Given it came at 8:02 it seems odd it was cold. Maybe it had been cooked in the hour before 8 and was left to cool. That then begs the question why can’t you serve before 8. All I’m saying is I feel the focus on quality has dropped. This is a sentiment echoed by many recent reviews and all your response made me feel that you don’t listen. It’s been a good run!

Alright, avocado toast with them is WAY too literal. No salt, no butter, not a single spice or flavouring, all for the low low price of a mortgage. Also what are their rules for laptops because we've been told about 5 different things that don't corroborate at all, and then getting kicked off a table to another that has a sign that CLEARLY contradicts what the staff just said is unacceptable. Unspoken rules aren't rules. Contradictory laptop mess. Edit: to reply to the team's reply; unfortunately it doesn't make sense or clear things up. Your laptop "rules" are confusing, contradictory, and being told to our faces that the rules are x, when they table sign says y is an accessibility issue. It's understandable to want to compromise between chatty visitors and laptop workers, but your staff cannot be rude or contradictory about it. You've given rules that we obeyed, then created a hostile atmosphere in telling us something else. It was an impossible situation and made us incredibly anxious, to the point that we can't come back knowing that staff will be rude to us for trying to follow your confusing "rules" that no one seems to know.

I rarely leave a critical review, especially when it comes to local cafes. But I've visited this cafe multiple times over the course of 2 years, and each time the average waiting time for a black americano is 10 minutes - the coffee itself is also not amazing enough to justify this amount of waiting. I accept that this is coming from someone accustomed to a more metropolitan pace, so perhaps just manage your expectations. It benefits from being in a prime location, but otherwise my honest experience with this cafe has been disappointingly mediocre at best.

Poor. Don't bother with this place. Decent coffee, and a couple of pleasant staff members, but coupled with worn out furniture and decor, a broken toastie maker, a dreadful vegan baguette, a cold and drear outside toilet (which is hard to locate after dark), and a very silly process of closing off a third of the seating an hour before closing. The way the staff member closed the area was also unnecessarily brusque. It doesn't matter that you've told people a few minutes prior – when the time comes, you need to let people finish and then leave, not stand over them while they neck their expensive coffees or try to move to other tables that don't exist. The young family at the next table were shadowed until they moved, with no understanding of the dad's point that he'd just got his kids to sit down with a snack for a few minutes. Even better, if you're open until a time, be open fully. Don't inconvenience and hassle customers just because you want to save 15 minutes of close down and get to the pub. Training and introspection needed.

They used to be good. It was the go-to place for very decent coffee and food. But, a fall from grace we seem to have. Service is sloppy, orders are either incorrect, not delivered all together, unrealistic wait times, or almost-cold food or coffee served. It’s a shame, but Hot Numbers is definitely cooling off, and after repeated disappointments, this is more than just a ‘blip’. Avoid…

Friendliest cafe in Cambridge. Great ambience & music (music thankfully not loud). Excellent coffee. Wonderful service, even when flat out. Narrow design - it gets busy - with smallish terrace out back and a few street-front tables. Only does oat milk in the non-dairies, otherwise I would visit more often. If they had range of gluten-free options (lunch, not cake) would order more food when I do. But as far as staff&mgt, ambience & coffee goes, Hot Numbers hits it out of the park.

I've been visiting Hot Numbers for years. The food is amazing, the coffee is superb but in the last year the service has become variable and, at times terrible. There's something missing and its a focus customer service Last Friday I had a business meeting. Cake and coffee delivered - ok but no friendly greeting. Saturday I had breakfast, no friendly greeting but an excellent bacon sandwich and coffee. Sunday was awful - I waited nearly 5 minutes to give my order whilst the staff looked everywhere but at me and chatted. The food took nearly 30 minutes to arrive even though we were only the second order into the kitchen. No apology for the wait and we were then charged an extra £1 for a thimble of maple syrup because it's a really expensive ingredient - this has never happened before. Pancakes were great, sausage sandwich was a bit sad and cold. Hot Numbers has had a super reputation for years. Transient staff not bothered about the customer experience will wreck it.

A tricky place to review. The actual coffee is the best in Cambridge. However, be prepared to wait for it. Every time I would have to wait over 20 minutes from ordering a to go coffee to receiving the coffee order. Furthermore, if you want a standard coffee (with normal or speciality milk) then fantastic. However, an extra hot coffee is the same temperature as a normal coffee, and a wet coffee has the same amount of foam as a normal coffee. Unfortunately, I did have to send my coffee back to be remade. Coffee is a luxury and therefore, something I want made to what I have asked due to it being a pleasure. The staff are all very young and unfortunately, unprofessional. They made it very obvious they were talking about me when I sent my coffee back. When I next came in, one boy looked, said something to his colleague who then looked at me in disgust. I understand it being frustrating having to remake a customers coffee, however, when paying for a service it is not the way to be treated. Additionally, I do like to see staff getting on, but the staff are often joking around rather than making coffee which adds to the wait time. A good coffee, but unprofessional staff.

Gezellig Cafe, aardig personeel , ruime keuze aan ontbijt, goede porties, lekker gekruid. Kortom: Mjummie. Wel aan de prijs, zoals veel in Cambridge: voor 4 personen ontbijt met een drankje reken je 40 pond af. We namen de kinderpannekoek (vind ik te zoet maar 11yo vond m lekker), kinderportie toast met scramblers egg (mijn keuze en echt genoeg voor een volwassene), tosti met 3 kazen (te veel en machtig voor m’n 17-jarige dochter) en toast met poached egg en bacon.

I visited today with my mum, having previously had a really nice time at the gwydir street branch. We sat outside and both ordered coffee and the veggie toastie. The bread was lovely and the coffee was delicious as usual, but the mustard content made it virtually inedible. I really like mustard but had to scrape as much as possible out to even attempt to eat it. Anyway we understand that these things happen and mistakes are made, so we went inside and politely told a member of the team. The response is what was disappointing as we were told ‘did we not realise it had mustard in it!?’, like it was our fault. No apology or offer to swap our food for something else. Unfortunately we definitely won’t be rushing back!

Made a takeaway order of sweet pancakes for our firms staff to celebrate the Shrove Day . Taking in to account the quantity needed ( 30 portions ) agreed this several days in advance (paid some cash advance , of course). The pancakes were received exactly in time , hot & accurately packed . Looked very nice and appetizing . The most popular feedback , received from my colleagues : "That`s incredible !" Many thanks to the professional & friendly Hot Numbers team !!!

Clean and pleasant ambience, friendly and helpful staff, delicious brunch (fluffy buttermilk pancakes with maple syrup, poached eggs and crispy bacon… the menu was very varied with lots of enticing options!) couldn’t resist buying some roasted coffee beans and elderflower & blueberry cake to take away!)

Hadn’t been to Hot Numbers in a while, so thought I would give it a try. The coffee is still very good, but the food was really not great. I got mushrooms on toast, and it’s not the cheapest, so you expect decent quality. The mushrooms themselves were very nice with the ricotta, but the bread was so stale- I struggled to cut it with the knife I had. I wasn’t sure there was any spinach, and I found the hot sauce a kind of weird accompaniment with it to be honest.. it didn’t really go with the dish I thought. I went on a hot day and the staff at the till were very nice and gave me one of the big glasses of icy water, which I very much appreciated!

The coffee is good. All else unfortunately is very average, *especially* when considering the prices. I've been here multiple times, so I do feel my opinion is quite balanced. Ordered a (quite burnt) focaccia that had 2 sundried tomatoes, 2 slices of mozzarella and some salad leaves - all for roughly £6. The quantity of food makes you feel like they are trying to be as economical as possible. Not really pleasant to experience.

Went here on a birthday trip to the City for brunch. Chose based on ratings. Huge queues, nobody clearing tables,had to physically ask someone to clear the mess. Only brought us 1 coffee despite ordering 2. Tried to order pancakes with bacon and poached egg....

Excellent cake, fine cup of tea, lovely service. Job done. No need to say anything more, but there's a 100 character minimum.

Perfect for coffee not for eating. Waited 40 minutes for scrambled eggs on toast when not that busy. Had to chase it up. Needed a steak knife to cut the toast. Plenty of distracted staff busy catching up with each other.

The slowest coffee I've ever had! Barista more interested in talking to girl colleague than serving anyone. Don't understand its popularity.

Coffee from here is not, as the name suggests 'hot' but lukewarm. At these prices, shouldn't be able to drink a coffee down in one. Make it 'hot' please, and be true to your name. Also, what has happened to the veg/cheese toasties? None available...

Wanted to try Hot Numbers so I joined the queue with everyone else. After 15 minutes got to counter when I was approached and asked if we would like to sit in. Shown to our seat in the outdoor courtyard then told that I would...

Delicious sausage sandwich. We were drawn to the restaurant by the smell of bacon as we walked past. We went in for brunch- the place was heaving! We were advised that there would be a 30 minute wait for food. That was no problem- we...

Food and coffee is nice, but seating is limited. We visited on valentines weekend and were sat at a larger table with a couple at the opposite end, which was fine. But then after we had already paid for our food another couple was sat...

I have been to hot numbers many times and always love their coffee. I still think it’s basically the best coffee in Cambridge (maybe only bould brothers compares). The coffee shop is nicely decorated and places ambient jazz music. However, my most recent visit I...

This cute and comfortable cafe made for a perfect beginning to our day trip in Cambridge. The staff was extremely accommodating in regards to my life threatening allergy and even served the granola separate from the yogurt for us. Although the eggs on toast were...

Reserved a table for a large group for lunch. Good selection of drinks and food and a great location for the station where a few of our group were heading afterwards. Kelly and Liv were really friendly and helpful and would highly recommend.
