The Earl of Beaconsfield is a thriving community pub and live-music venue at 133 Mill Road in the Romsey district of Cambridge. It pours a Cask Marque range of real ales alongside lagers, draught ciders and wines, and has built a reputation as one of the best places for live music in the city, with music four nights a week. The regular programme includes a blues jam night, an acoustic jam night and a host slot on Saturday nights where musicians get up and play. It's a child- and dog-friendly pub with stone-baked pizzas, a bar-billiards room, a swap library, a sun-trap beer garden and Sky TV for the football crowd. The relaxed, community-driven feel makes it an easy, welcoming room for Cambridge folk, blues and acoustic players.
