My friends and I enjoyed 4 rounds of whisky, beer, cider and house specialty drinks in the alley / designated smoking area. Inside on a Friday night, there wasn't a seat available. We braved the cold and drizzle for 2 hours. When the place started clearing out, we sat in a hall with stools and a counter. Seating area around the bar is all low top tables. Loud but worth the atmosphere. Great energy. 3 different bartenders helped us. All professional, patient and kind. Noticed the 2nd floor was for dinning. And if you need to work off food or drink, the restrooms are on the third floor. Clean, well stocked and charming decor. Memorable visit for a one night stay in Cambridge. (American in England)

I'll preface this review by stating that we are Americans visiting friends in Cambridge. We had…read morehigh expectations for the Sunday Roast at The Fort St. George. It is known for being the old pub in the river in Cambridge and has a nice atmosphere inside. The outside looked amazing as well but the sun was (unusually) shining. Our reservations were for 3:30 and we came hungry. We ordered using the Greene King app which was very simple and the food came quickly. I will say that the servers were nice and seemed attentive. My wife got the sirloin Sunday Roast and I had fish and chips with a Guinness. The Sunday Roast came with a fair amount of beef, barely-cooked carrots, semi-cooked Cauliflower, a cup of gravy (very good), potatoes, and cooked cabbage. The star of the show was the gravy and everything else was average. However the fish and chips were quite nice- the fish was perfectly fried with a nice and crispy skin. We both ended with Sticky Toffee Pudding with custard which was quite nice although our Cambridge friends thought it could have been better. I can't say that the overall meal and experience met expectations. I'm glad that we went but probably would not go again.

It's got strange live music, a pool table, a beer garden, free newspapers, a small but decent selection of beers, seating on the street, bar billiards (sometimes) and... thousands of pigs. That's right - this dark but warm little pub is brimful of random pig toys, pig posters and pig sculptures. It adds a unique atmosphere to an already well-known atmospheric pub. Being only about 20 houses away, you can trust me that this is a true local gem. After 5 on most nights you'll find this place packed with drinkers who can't be bothered to go home just yet or catch the train home to the villages. Even if it's near-freezing out you'll still see us taking our beers out and sitting on the grass by the BBC next door so that the smokers can smoke away. And on a hot summer night - it's just perfect. No need to go home until I get thrown out.

If all you're looking to do is meet your basic needs, in a Maslow's Hierarchy sense, then this is your place. However, for anyone who has traveled through Europe and/or has a reverence for the sacred nectar that is Belgian beer, this pub provides service with a most disrespectful sin. Allow me to explain. One of the glories of drinking beer in Europe is the service. Each beer is typically served in its brewery-appointed glass. Some are even served pair with small snacks to complement the beer. This takes the simple act of having a beer and turns it into an experience of greater depth and enjoyment. The Maypole, however, doesn't feel it should conform to this practice. Instead choosing to serve some of the world's greatest beers without the care to serve them in the proper glass, even though they have them. It feels wrong. Sure, some may argue that serving a beer in any style of Belgian glass meets the requirement, but for me it doesn't. For example, my local pub had a Belgian night a couple years back and even for just that one night, they acquired the proper glasses for each beer and served them accordingly. Surely The Maypole, with its reputation as a source for Belgian beer on a daily basis, could easily match the effort my local pub made? Surely. The Maypole is disrespecting us and the beer with each glass it pours. We all deserve better.
