Neighborhoods

A 15 minute walk from the house, Harvard Square is full of shops, cafes, restaurants, and tons of people watching opportunities. Geared towards tourists and Harvard students, warm weather brings street performers, and wide plazas provide seating to sit and take in the atmosphere.

A more folksy neighborhood that's geared towards locals rather than tourists. Quirky shops, sandwich/taco/pizza joints, and eclectic restaurants. On the Red Line subway route, one stop from Porter Station, which is a 7-9 minute walk from the house.

Sightseeing

Closest subway station to the house. Buy a charlie card at the kiosk, and hop on a train to places all around the Boston area. Park Street Station, 5 stops away, is in the middle of Boston, right at the Boston Common, and also offers connections to other subway lines. Trains usually run every 10 minutes or so.

Food scene

Right on Mass Ave, across from our street. Excellent and fresh- Americanized Chinese food prepared with care and quality ingredients. On the pricey side. Dim Sum on Sundays. Really nice dine-in experience.

Take a right on Mass Ave, a couple blocks towards Porter. Delicious ramen! Also, great appetizers. Haven't tried the sushi, but probably great too.

One of the best restaurants in Cambridge. Nouveau Italian, focused on quality ingredients and hand made pasta. Impossible to get a reservation, but walk-ins can often eat at the bar. Expensive.

Mass Ave towards Harvard. The only good pizza in the area. Small pizzas only, but decent prices mean it's reasonable to get one per person. Do NOT go to Harvard House of Pizza or Half Shell for pizza.

Best sandwiches in a little place run by the nicest guys! A little fancy/French, but so fresh. Not cheap but well worth it.

Best Indian food, especially the samosas! They have their own delivery drivers, so order through their website for delivery rather than a service, so they get all the proceeds :)
