If I could give a negative review, I would. My wife and I thought we had found a hidden gem of Cambridge and were hugely mistaken. While taking a quick video of the tables and treats on display to share with her friends, one of the employee started to angrily shout - ' my face is in the video'. Attempts to reassure said employee didn't help - my wife was left in tears. Worst experience in Cambridge.

Very cozy place. We went there for dinner and we had pizzas. All of them were really good and tasty. The couple of Italian guys were very friendly and professional with us. Highly recommend.

Me & my partner really did not enjoy the pizza here. Despite it being wood fired and few recommendations to say it was really good; our pizza was undercooked and lacked enough topping. I just thought false publicity isn't fair.

There should be 20 more Charlie's Coffee Company in Cambridge! And I would say in each city, as it's the most wonderful place for adults and children without being childish. It's actually very fancy, and the food is so delicious. It's pure creativity, cleverness, and good taste, all together!

As a cafe it's Fine. Nice decor and good music, but I don't think I've ever seen them with enough staff. The staff that are there are lovely but there's not enough of them to take orders and make drinks simultaneously so orders take a while. Very possible that it's better in the evening when people come for dinner

Amazing little find! A lovely pizzeria/coffee house. Such friendly staff, spotlessly clean, and beautifully presented coffee, the cake was AMAZING! I would thoroughly recommend this place. Oh and for those who want to keep their children and trainspotting friends amused, the tables have running model railways inside !

The restaurant had really interesting and quirky interior with model train under the table that you can play with and a carriage coach as a seat. Kids would love the model train seats.
Pizzas are made to order so very fresh and it is entertaining to watch your pizza being made while you wait.
The restaurant closes early so check the opening time if you are dining late in the evening.

Very intense, tasty flat white served with a small glass of water (classy\traditional!).
A cute, tiny ice-cream cone on the side as a special treat!
Pavement seating ideal on a warm evening.

Very disappointed with the post lock down Charlie's, they appear to have a new chef and new ingredients and a high price tag! Cheap mozzarella, pizza came out with a blanc base without the menu telling us so. I don't know what has changed but 2019 Charlies wipes the floor with 2021 Charlie's!!

Yummy authentic pizza. decor is quirky and cute. I had the mini pizza which was perfect for me as I can't eat a lot in one go. I also had a smoothie which was yummy and much needed in this hot weather. Perfect way to end my day after working at the vaccination centre in Grafton centre.

Food was really nice, but service was shocking. Tables weren’t cleaned, the chef arrived to work and didn’t wash his hands and after an hour of waiting (told it would be 20 mins) the waitress brought the wrong pizza... twice!!! The Manager was too busy on his phone and drinking Latte. Real shame - need to sort the service!

We went to Charlie’s for lunch today and were very disappointed. We ordered pizzas for my husband and myself and mini pizzas for our two daughters. The mini pizzas only arrived once my husband and I had already… finished our pizzas! Surely the kids’ food should be brought out first if they are busy? There was only one guy preparing all the food- most definitely not enough on a Sunday! We also found it very pricey- over £50 for the pizzas, a beer and an aperol spritz!

I wanted to give this place a higher rating because the pizza was delicious, the mint tea I had was lovely, the decor was eclectic and fun, and prices were just ok, but during my visit, the place was dirty and disorganised despite being nearly empty and I don't think I saw any of the staff smile once. Maybe on another day they could've gotten 4 stars, but not today.

Reasonably priced, comfortable coffee/tea, cakes and light lunch options with wonderfully refreshing kid accommodations. There's a small space set aside for children and the whole place is a good balance of quirk and function. Prompt and friendly service have been the hallmark of my three visits so far and encourage my return.

Âœ“ Vegan and Vegetarian Options
Upon delivery by Deliveroo, I had a vegan pizza option – tomato base topped with cucumber, aubergine, bell peppers with vegan cheese. I remember Charlie’s had really nice pizza crusts when I was in Cambridge around 2014. However, the pizza wasn’t as good I remembered (even when delivered). The crust was almost soggy (might be because of the vegan cheese which is more wet?) but still acceptable. The topping were very lacking for the price. Not a fan of the vegan cheese they have either. Sure, the texture clearly is not close to normal cheese, but the taste

Charlie's is a true gem! My family & I will truly miss this great spot: the warm/welcoming atmosphere, the tasty brick oven pizzas, the coffees that suit every mood, the eye catching pastries and the great customer service!
