Food scene
There are three Aromi cafes in Cambridge, one is a stone throw away from the house and the other two are near the Market Square (10 minute walk). Aromi has some of the best food Cambridge has to offer, with Sicilian flatbreads, tiramisu, gelato and pizzas. The coffee (especially the hazelnut or pistachio lattes) are the best in Cambridge.
We like to take our food to go and sit on one of the local commons.
