Cambridge UK Recommendations
Hello all - don't know if there's anyone on here from the UK and/or around Cambridge. I'll be there next week and I'm planning to meet a friend for drinks/dinner after work. Self: omnivore. Friend: fussy vegetarian (the kind that doesn't eat vegetables). Italian is always safe with her.
Any recommendations? Thanks in advance.

I've never been wowed by the food in Cambridge, but I did have great gelato in an Italian restaurant on Magdalene St, a couple blocks north of the river.
I also had horrible Indian food at a restaurant on St. Andrews St (can't remember the name) so I'd steer clear of curry over there!

I agree with @ChristineB, but there is the Rainbow Cafe on Kings Parade. I haven't been there in a long time but I seem to remember that it was good, even for omnivores.

If you don't mind walking a little, I think the Black Cat Cafe (on Mill Road, over the bridge) is very veggie-friendly for lunch and cake.
I second the suggestion of the Rainbow Cafe on King's Parade, but check the menu online because I seem to remember it being quite vegetable-heavy.
The Italian restaurant that ChristineB is referring to is called La Margherita and it is fabulous - by far the best Italian restaurant left in Cambridge.
Varsity on Regent street does a nice Veggie Meze set menu.
