The Chalkboard

The Chalkboard is one of the food-and-drink stops worth knowing about in Peterborough: it is a popular tearoom-style café on Riverside Walk, offering a calmer daytime stop close to the River Nene and city-centre routes. It adds a useful coffee-and-cake experience to the waterside side of Peterborough’s visitor offer. As a café, it works naturally into a daytime visit rather than requiring a special evening journey. It can provide the pause between heritage, shopping, walking or countryside stops that makes a longer day in Peterborough practical, while also supporting the independent businesses that give the Fens their local character. Menus, service times and opening arrangements can change seasonally, so visitors making a special journey should check the venue’s current information before travelling.
