A bar doesn't seem to me at all like the best place to begin to have lite (let alone Light) interaction with strangers.
I'd recommend the Diesel Cafe in Davis Square, where you can find a seat at a large shared table, or even better imho, look for a small group on Meetup.com that does some sort of activity you're interested in.
