The Empress: "Excellent pub, known for its quiz nights" Top 5 Page for this destination Cambridge Nightlife Tip by Airpunk

This pub is a real students' haunt and due to its location, tourists usually do not find it. It is located in an area usually referred to as Romsey town, an old workers' area off Mill Road. Their weekly pub quiz (tuesday) is probably the most popular and one of the most challenging in town. Other events like comedy and music take place regularly as well, but due to space reasons, many of them were moved to the "brother" pub called the Emperor. The Empress has usually a good choice of ales and gets pretty full from around 8 pm, especially on pub quiz nights. Decoration focuses on pictures from good old Queen Victoria. Pub games are available, but sometimes there is just no space to play them....

Good pub and probably one of the best places to meet locals (especially students) instead of tourists.
