The Rupert Brooke in Grantchester offers a unique drinking and dining experience in an idyllic setting just outside Cambridge. It is the latest adventure of Pasquale Benedetto, who has been part of the Cambridge dining scene since joining his father at Don Pasquale over 30 years ago.

While the venue is a fresh start there are many familiar faces among the team, many of whom have worked together at previous sites for several years.
The mission of the entire team is to set ourselves apart through great service, a buzzing atmosphere, good food executed well & a wide offering of high quality drinks.

There has been a public house serving up drinks and food on the site since 1839, well before the days of the poet Rupert Brooke who the pub is now named after. It was originally opened as The Rose & Crown and the name only changed in the 1970’s. The new name is a homage to one of Grantchester’s most famous residents. Rupert Brooke was a wartime poet known for his idyllic sonnets about home, whilst studying at Cambridge University, he spent time living and working in the village and ‘Grantchester’ is one of his most famous poems.
