The Haymakers

Problem: a skinny jeans-wearing scenester is desperate to satisfy his craving for niche indie music. Solution: point him in the direction of Chesterton, and tell him to look for The Haymakers. With its low ceilings and dingy lighting (call it an 'intimate atmosphere' if you will), The Haymakers is one of Cambridge's best-kept secrets. Not only does it offer cheap drinks and snacks aplenty, but it has also seen the likes of NY indie rockers The Bravery and anti-folk singer Jeffrey Lewis grace its makeshift stage. So if you fancy having a pint with the locals, or hanging out with the cool kids to watch an acoustic set one night, then The Haymakers sounds like the one – but don't forget your skinny jeans.
