Our story

Our Story

2-minute walk from Premier Inn & Travelodge — Nepalese kitchen, HD sport, and cosy snugs in a 1930s art-deco pub.

Built in the 1930s as a corner pub, The Corner House is now Cambridge’s home of pints and momo — 2 minutes from Premier Inn & Travelodge and 10 minutes to Abbey Stadium. After CAMRA’s Most Improved City Pub award in 2020, Lapen Inns relaunched the house in late 2024 with a Kathmandu-led kitchen, heated cabins, and wall-to-wall HD sports while keeping real ales, snugs, and free Wi-Fi for solo travellers, families, and away fans alike.

Neighbourhood promise

Cambridge’s corner living room

We keep a mix of bookable cabins and walk-in tables, pour cask ales from local partners, and greet every guest like we already know their order.
