The brand will be offering a spaghetti and meatball sandwich as a nod to the old restaurant.
A popular sandwich shop in Cambridge is opening a second location on Mill Road just a few months since its first store was unveiled. Marvin’s, which is a sandwich shop found on Green Street and is the sister-brand to Stir Bakery, will be taking over the old site of Maurizio Dining & Co on Mill Road.
Martin Perkins of Marvin’s said: “We know Maurizio’s means a lot to people. Places like that become part of the rhythm of a street. We’re incredibly grateful to Maurizio for everything he’s built here and we’re proud to be taking up the mantle.”
The opening follows the “successful launch” of Marvin’s first location, which only opened a few months ago in September 2025 is is the next step for the “fast-growing independent brand”. The brand has said it is “honoured” to be continuing the “site’s tradition of feeding the neighbourhood”.
Mill Road is already known for being an area packed with independent businesses, restaurants, and cafés. Matt Harrison, the founder and owner of Stir and Marvin’s, said: “Mill Road has a unique energy. It’s where so much of Cambridge’s food culture lives. Independent businesses, family-run shops, incredible ingredients and cuisines from all over the world. To open Marvin’s here and become part of that fabric is something we’re hugely proud of.”
Similarly to its Green Street shop, the Marvin’s on Mill Road will serve its signature menu of “big, layered sandwiches built on bread baked fresh every day specifically for each style of sandwich”. The shop will be bringing “chewy bagels and fluffy focaccia” sandwiches as well as a special spaghetti and meatball sub, which will be served with a marinara dipping sauce as “a nod” to Maurizio Dining & Co.
Guests will also be able to find an ever-changing selection of “globally inspired” sandwiches. If you fancy something sweet, Marvin’s also stocks fresh pastries and a range of soft drinks that have been “designed to complement the food”.
The Mill Road locations wants to keep “Marvin’s relaxed, high-energy approach to hospitality that has quickly made the Green Street site a favourite among Cambridge sandwich fan”.
