This city is primarily recognized as home to the prestigious Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Cambridge is made up of squares on squares, but the people who inhabit them are far from square. If you're here to study, have no fear you smart cookie, there are plenty of great coffee shops to caffeinate and bust out the books for a late night study sesh " check out Crema Cafe in Harvard Square. Does the brain hurt from studying so hard? Time for a break. Fun in Cambridge is densely packed, everything is in walking distance, and it's is one of the most walker and biker-friendly communities. Grab a few buddies and hit The Garment District, a sprawling used and vintage clothing store " you never know what you might find in the mountains (yes, mountains) of clothing here. After you've shopped till you've dropped, catch a sunset on the Charles River. Hungry? Try Henrietta's Table or Grafton Street in Harvard Square for brunch. For the veggie-loving hipster, head over to Clover. Date venue? Oleana. Russell House Tavern is a Harvard-student heavy restaurant and bar, and The Sinclair and The Middle East are great venues for small concerts. An intellectual hub where old school meets the modern, Cambridge is full of character. All it needs is you.
