Open four days a week, Vanderlyle on Mill Road offers locally sourced produce to create its unique tasting menu, giving guests the option to pair their food perfectly with beverages to savor all tastes.
The restaurants offer guests a unique dining experience that usually lasts a few hours and the opportunity to taste the food of local farmers in a whole new way.

The Michelin reviewer said: “A large open-plan kitchen takes center stage at Vanderlyle, combining shabby chic style with designer comfort.
“The well-balanced 10-course vegetarian menu shows imagination and creativity, along with purity and freshness of flavor.
“Opt for the wine or juice pairings to complete your experience.”
The Vanderlyle is just one of six Cambridge restaurants mentioned in the guide, including Central Market on Green Street, Parker’s Tavern on Regent Street, Navadhanya on Newmarket Road, Midsummer House on Midsummer Common, and Restaurant Twenty-Two on Chesterton Road.

Speaking with one of Vanderlyle’s chefs and co-owners, Alex Rushmer earlier this year said, “We design the menu based on the list of items that are sent to us twice a week.
“Most of the produce comes from a farm called Flouris Produce in Hildersham, a sustainable organic regeneration farm on the outskirts of Cambridge.
“We don’t officially call ourselves a vegetarian restaurant, because that’s almost secondary to what we do. It’s just about showcasing local products. “
He added: “The response we get is that people love to go out to eat and not have to worry about what they are going to order and not ask for the right thing.
The Telegraph also praised Vanderlyle in August last year and named him in its “great restaurants you won’t want to miss on your Cambridge list.
Here they wrote: “A former Subway branch has been transformed into a smart yet casual canteen-style dining room.
“Although it is not officially a vegetarian restaurant, the menus until now have been limited to plant foods served in extraordinary and delicious combinations, such as wild garlic and turnip risotto, or white chocolate and celeriac semifreddo with a celery and celery slush.
“Wine pairings or (unusually) non-alcoholic beverages, such as homemade kombucha, are recommended.”
The Michelin Guide rates more than 30,000 establishments in more than 30 territories on three continents, and more than 30 million Michelin Guides have been sold worldwide.
