| Notes: | Renamed as the "Oxford and Cambridge" in 1789, as the "Cambridge Stores" in 1811, as the "Newman Street Tavern" in 2012, as "Dickie Fitz" (a restaurant) in c2016, and as "Mr Fogg's House of Botanicals" in 2018. It was primarily a restaurant as "Newman Street Tavern", and before and after that was just a restaurant. The directories list it as the "Cambridge coffee house" in 1841 and 1856, so it may not have fully been a pub for a period. |
