Cambridge Hospitality To Be Proud Of

Last year TW2B awards attracted several taxidrivers and small shops. This year we have two Cambridge restaurants on the list of nominees, which is good news if you like good food!

We have had a nomination for La Mimosa restaurant, and by coincidence my father chose if for his 86th birthday lunch this week, so I was interested to meet Dom the proprietor and see his team in action.
Certainly the place is physically accessible, in a lovely location by the river at the end of Thompson's Lane.

The welcome was very warm and staff very attentive, and as it happened my father had rather overdone his eardrops and couldn't hear properly, but the waiter was very courteous and it was clear to me that customers with hearing problems are in safe hands as well!

We have also had a nomination for Brown's in Trumpington Street. I myself was pleased to see this one come in, as I was invited to lunch there by a friend some years ago. MS meant that my friend used a powerchair and had difficulty with his speech, but it was noticeable that the staff at Brown's addressed him throughout as he was the host, (he was paying, after all!) and we had a most agreeable meal. Obviously their tradition of good manners continues.

The ramp and automatic doors make it physically accessible of course, but as ever it is the attitude of the staff that lead to a nomination for TW2B.

If anyone reading this has personal experiences of Mimosa, Brown's or any other businesses featured in this blog, please do add your comments or make a nomination.
