"A lot of you asked me..." (literally no one) what my brunch recommendation is for the Easter Monday. Don't worry, I got you, and so does the Histon Station House (@histonstationhouse 🚅).
Met up with a friend Layla here back in March to escape the chaos of the Cambridge Half Marathon—and honestly, that was the best decision!
It’s only about a 10-minute cycle for me living up North (or ~25–30 minutes from Cambridge City Centre), but feels like a proper little getaway from the city.
First impressions: really great spot for brunch. The outdoor area looked lovely, but it was a bit too cold to sit out—so we stayed inside. After brunch, I also went for a nice little walk in Histon, but let me tell you, that won't take very long 🤣
What we ordered:
🍳 Brunch dish (~£14.5)
🧇 Waffles with halloumi & avocado (£15)
☕ Coffee (£4.2)
🍵 Oat Chai Latte (£4.5)
🧃Green Goddess Smoothie (~£6)
🍽 A — Aroma & Taste: 5/5
Really, really good.
My dish was super flavourful—the chilli sauce had a nice kick, balanced perfectly by the Greek yogurt.
Coffee and bread are from Hot Numbers, so you already know the quality is there. Even the latte art was cute (seen better, but still not bad).
📍 L — Location & Vibe: 4.5/5
Charming, relaxed, and a nice escape from central Cambridge. Great mix of cosy indoor space + a really nice outdoor setup for warmer days. It was also full when we got there, but we had a booking. My consider that if you want to visit.
🙋 I — Interaction: 4/5
Friendly and welcoming staff—no complaints here. But occasionally it took them a while to notice us, including at the end when we wanted to pay.
💸 S — Spend: 4/5
Not the cheapest brunch, but you’re paying for quality—and it shows.
🔁 T — Take Me Back: 5/5
Definitely coming back. So many options on the menu—already eyeing the French toast 👀
(also… need to try those pastries next time)
⭐ Final Score: 4.5 / 5
👉 Adrian Approved? ✅
Perfect spot if you want a high-quality brunch just outside the Cambridge buzz.
