Lived near Harvard square for about 6-1/2 years. I regard RHT as a place where mostly tourists or visitors go at this point. Exceptionally average. Much better spots in the area to grab a bite or drink.

Grendels den in the afternoon might be a good place for this.

Street parking is pretty much everywhere in Cambridge. The resident sticker plus a guest pass is also incredibly affordable ~$25 a year.

Valvoline on mass Ave with a Groupon.
