Mill Road is a robust and thriving area of Cambridge, England with a surprisingly strong sense of community considering the extremely mobile local population and the fact that a major trunk road runs right through our midst.

Mill Road is an extraordinary street on which it is possible to drink Arabic coffee or fine wines; where you can worship in a Mosque, a Hindu shrine or a Baptist church; where you can eat pâté or fish and chips, tom yum or chicken tikka lababda; where you can stock up on herbs and spices from aam to zedoary, shop for free range eggs or lamb chops, fresh ciabatta or coconut milk; where you can buy the most up-to-date computer or widget, cookware or musical instrument; purchase an antique chair or a vintage hat; have your hair or your nails styled; do your banking or get personal counselling; select a good book and get your eyes tested so you can read it. Until the 1970's you could even have a bath there!

There is a florist, a printer, a specialist in beers, a fine wine shop, a butcher, Chinese, Korean, Indian and Italian supermarkets and a diversity of eateries to feed every taste in Cambridge. What is more, with few exceptions along its entire length, all of these services and goods are provided by independent traders.

We invite you to join us in visiting and celebrating this remarkable and unique neighbourhood!
