To ask you to help me remember…(if you lived in Cambridge in the 90’s)

[WhyMeWhyNot21]

HELP!!!!

I’ve been Googling for hours with no luck and it’s slowly driving me round the bend!!

In the mid/late 90’s I used to go to a club/music venue with my mates, we’d watch local bands play. It was around Napier street/Cobblers yard and it was possibly the strip club - Talk of the town at some point before then.

Any ideas?
Thanks!

I used to get my morning coffee from a little sandwich shop on bene't Street when I worked in Cambridge. Run by a Greek couple I think. It was the best coffee I've ever tasted, massive cup for a pound. And their sandwiches were to die for. I would sell my soul for one right now. Sadly they sold it a while ago 😪 can't remember the name, just down from the Eagle.

And we used to go to the Eagle on our lunch break for wine and then go back to work half cut 😁 happy days

Colonel Fudpuckers. Best chilli burger ever

Gone by the time I moved here, but my next door neighbour gets almost tearful remembering the glory that was Colonel Fudpuckers.

Anyone missing Sweeney Todd's: a mate used to work in the kitchen in the 90s and said the chef never washed his hands after going for a shit. Claimed he (the chef) also used to shag his girlfriend out the back and then go straight back to cooking (no hand washing then either).

Heffers was amazing (less so now it's one shop and half tourist tat and cards) but does anyone else remember Brown's bookshop on Mill Road?

And did anyone else ever go to the Duke of Argyle off Mill Road? Rough as a badger's arse, and always someone selling knocked off stuff. Had a huge hole in the wall just inside the door, obviously where someone had punched it. Only place I've ever had a drink that had a non-ironic set of those pictures of dogs playing poker/pool, etc plus a set of identical cat ones. Ended up as a crack house, got converted and extended into four tiny houses that now sell for something like £500K.
