The Fitzwilliam Museum, while primarily known for its art and antiquities, does have a culinary element represented within its onsite café and the food-inspired events it occasionally hosts. It resides in a city with a rich academic history, where dining traditions have been influenced by international scholars and visitors. Although the museum itself does not possess a food history stretching back to its foundation, it reflects the diverse food culture found in Cambridge, including an array of international and British fare.
