Hmmm... I seem to be losing out again. Was in Norwich a few weeks ago on a stag and the party went to a load of crap bars and a strip club. My attempts to divert towards beer were all thwarted by the plan.

Oh, unlucky Vicar. That's no good at all. My brother works in one of the best pubs in Norwich, so I always get a head start. I've only ever seen the City pub on matchdays and with their very worst of rowdy fans, so it didn't leave me with a very good impression. I'm sure it has its moments though. The Live and Let Live was closed when we tried to go there, though. Unlucky. It does have odd hours, but I'd rate it as Cambridge's best, even if the others do occasionally eclipse it. I still think Norwich and Sheffield are better drinking cities, but Cambridge is up there with Manchester, Glasgow and Wakefield. Cambridge lacks enough truly exceptional pubs, but it is very easy to stagger between the good ones. It's a shame neither football ground is blessed with a great local – City have the dodgy Portland Arms, while United have The Wrestlers, mixing ales and oriental cuisine. Yes, I do love the Live and Let Live. It's one of my favourites, for sure. I haven't been to sheffield but I do love Norwich for drinkies - I try to get up there a few times a year. I do prefer Cambridge myself, though, so there we differ. |
