Hidden Rooms was recently named one of the city’s best bars, we’ll let DesignMyNight explain why:

“Established in 2009, ‘Hidden Rooms’ is located in the heart of Cambridge, in an impressive former Victorian Roman Baths, designed in 1863 by Sir Matthew Digby Wyatt. Situated in the basement, they share this beautiful grade II listed, neo-classical building with the famous Cambridge University Pitt Club. Passionate about drinks and proud of their independence; they demonstrate a level of commitment and customer care, that chain-operated venues simply cannot achieve.”

You can take a little piece of Hidden Rooms home with you too by attending one of their world-class cocktail making classes.
