Pages Cambridge
Pages Coffee House opened on Trumpington Street at the start of October 2023. Founder and Cambridge local Jasmine Jayyousi had a desire to add another independent spot to the mix with the hope it'd become a core part of the community and keep the city's unique spirit alive. Serving beans from London roastery Monmouth and baked goods from Borough Market, Pages provides a slice of the big city but served up in a more relaxing environment. Along with supplying a daily caffeine fix their menu also offers speciality lattes such as matcha, beetroot or turmeric which have added health benefits for those who are looking to try something a bit different.
