Right next to Harvard University, Harvard Square is a place of bookstores and coffee houses, of fine dining and eclectic shopping. It is a place of folk music and old theaters, of Cuban ballet and world-class music, of street-performers and award-winning pizza, of public discourse, and public art.

Instantly increase your IQ by walking the grounds on one of the worlds most prestigious institutions; Harvard University. Inside tip- some of the lecture halls and classrooms are publicly accessible. Go in, take a seat and experience what it feels like to be a student. Our favorite places to eat around Harvard Square include Alden & Harlow for a sit down meal. Flat Patties, Felipe's Taqueria and Shake Shack for fast casual meal. Tatte Bakery for coffee, tea and baked goods. Icing on the cake in this neighborhood, or icing on the cannoli in this case, is the famed North End outpost Mike's Pastry has a shop here.
