Exactly the two that came to mind when I saw the thread title!
Baron of Beef used to have a bar billiards table. Can't remember what the attraction of the maypole was.

Also the Eagle, the Mitre, and the Pickerel. Just avoid the chains and you can't go wrong in Cambridge!

cheap cocktails, amazing range of Whiskeys and 8 different ales on the pump, with homemade italian food perhaps?

All plausible reasons, although not exactly what I was into 20 years ago (apart from the cheap bit!).
King Street used to be a good - lots of tiny places there.

A lot of the first microcomputers in history came into being in the mid-Seventies over those swilling tables. It's a shrine really.

The Eagle is interesting because the wartime graffiti of airmen and their girlfriends onthe ceiling, and the fact that two young gentlemen called Crick and Watson burst in one lunchtime announcing that they had discovered the "secret of life" (and presumably then got thoroughly drunk?)
A plaque commemorates this..

And where did Franklin drink?

It's a bit more complicated than that...
Cups of tea in the SCR in Newnham, presumably.
I guess you're off the wagon then TC.
Phew!
I was obliged to rein in my temperance thang, on account of Agent Hilda's celebrations. But it's £4.15 for a bottle of Churchill College Ale at this gaff, so last night was verging on the teetotal.
