Arched into the cobbled lane of Trinity Street, behind a mustard yellow door, an all-day bar-café cuts loose. Come for breakfast, stay for lunch, dinner, cocktails! Kick back, relax.
Full-on feasts, serious snackery and good old knees-ups. On the menu, Breakfast Naan Rolls, Chaats, Salads, Curries and Dishoom faves rub up against knock-out collabs with local breweries. On the decks, resident DJs bounce beats. Feet tap, spirits lift, Aunty’s groove.
Step inside. The vibe never dims.
Permit Room Cambridge is mainly for walk-ins — but we do keep some tables for reservations. For big parties, it’s best to book in advance (you might be spread across some nearby tables in one happy-go-lucky section). After the kitchen has closed, come for a late-night snack and drink (walk-in or book).
Any questions – chat with our team.
There’s an eclectic mix of events at Permit Room: great pop-ups, local performers, DJ nights and other happenings.
You can kick back like a Bombayite from your very own Cambridge living room. We deliver straight to your door from our Permit Room kitchen. Feast on our Chicken Pick-Me-Ups with tasty Chilli Chips and Chef’s Lamb Curry. Dishoom faves like Chicken Ruby and House Black Daal too.
