Great Food Club Guide Cambridgeshire The Geographer

The Geographer

This travel-inspired café, deli and store just north of Cambridge is a food lovers’ delight!

Whether you are dropping in for coffee and a bite or lunch, you will receive a warm welcome. Owners Caroline and David Child offer a fabulous selection of delicious homemade cakes, cookies and salads.

The packed shelves groan with goodies from far and wide, and there’s no doubt you will leave with a jar or packet of something! We picked up some artisan drinking chocolate when visiting in late November, when The Geographer was gearing up to fulfil orders for its bespoke Christmas food hampers.

This cafe/deli/shop is a mainstay of the local community but we would urge those from further afield to visit. You will not be disappointed!
