Fitzbillies in Cambridge is an absolute treasure!

Their Chelsea buns are hands down the best in the country—rich, sticky, and perfectly spiced. Pair that with a mocha that rivals (and, dare I say, surpasses) anything I’ve had in Italy, and you’ve got an unforgettable experience. I’m genuinely surprised it only has a 4-star overall rating—it deserves 5 stars and beyond for its exceptional quality and charm. A must-visit for anyone in Cambridge!

We had the best first-experience having afternoon tea!

It was so lovely and refreshing. The Chelsea buns were so delicious and everything we ordered was just perfect. If you’re wanting an affordable and delicious afternoon tea experience, this is a great place to go! Can’t wait to visit again.

A nice bakery, the service is very friendly and helpful.

We went there to have a traditional afternoon tea. The sandwiches, scones, and sweets were delicious. We felt very welcomed there.

Also, we had to take some of their famous Chelsea buns to go home with. They are really good too.

Of my 3 mornings in Cambridge, I had breakfast here on 2 of them.

Once I saw their scones through the window while walking the city on my first day, I decided to stop in the next morning. Each day, I had a delicious sultana scone (with clotted cream the first time and jam each time) with English breakfast tea. I added peanut butter I bought from a grocery store.

I had friendly service. I liked the vibe. Love the look of all of the locations. Great, all around.
