An excellent bookshop in the centre of Cambridge, with a huge range of both academic and more…read moremainstream texts. I was after a copy of Pevsner, (eclectic tastes, I'm afraid) and they had the full range in stock. Great stuff. Very knowledgeable and helpful staff. A long queue formed on my visit, but they got in 2 extra staff to tackle it after less than a minute. Recommended.

They don't take refunds on statute books (a book which has the law of something on it, in my case…read morethe Companys Act, 2006 and related laws). Something they didn't tell me when I first purchased the product. Something that wasn't reflected in the receipt. Something that wasn't on a sign on the counter. All they could offer was "sorry". What is the reason for this, I asked? Because statute books can be photocopied and returned. But that is the same for ALL books in theory. Actually it is even less likely for statute books, because YOU CAN PRINT IT FOR FREE ON THE INTERNET. I imagine they must have other nonsensical policies out there just waiting to bite you. Out of principle, I won't be buying anything from this place ever. Amazon here I come.

It's very cool to visit the home shop of the press which prints probably half the books I've read…read morein university, and to peruse the large selection of high-quality academic texts. One small downside is the somewhat bloated cost of books here; most of them are significantly cheaper even new from Amazon. Otherwise I'd easily give this shop five stars.

Bookshelves outside have bargains on them, if you're after obsolete 1950s commentaries on Greek plays, or perhaps something to do with slide rules. The sort of place you'd expect to hear someone ask for "Flyfishing, by J.R. Hartley"; definitely more for grownups than children, but delightful nonetheless.

This café has got no background music and is open till 8pm. As this combo is absolutely unique in…read moreEngland, there must be some big BUT for me to not award full five stars. This BUT is the café's air-condition. I understand that when it is 28° outside, they want to cool their spaces down a bit, but what they are doing is way over the top. I have to bring additional layers which I put on *inside* the café, which just feels completely stupid. Plus air-conditioning is extremely energetically demanding (much more than heating), so in the price of my drink I am effectively covering the cost of them making me feel unpleasant.

I can't believe how long it took me to find this Cambridge gem.

They seem to do a good trade in second-hand consoles and some of the rarer, collectible stuff and sell lots of Japanese imports. If the shop isn't too busy, they'll happily plug in a game for you to try, or just let you have a go on whatever they've been playing when they didn't have customers. The owner has been trading games in Cambridge for as long as I can remember, must be 15 or 20 years now. Customer service is very good, if you do buy a second-hand game which doesn't work properly, they refund or replace with no fuss at all.
