There are farmer's markets, vintage clothing bazars, and lots of fun craft fairs. I've always been impressed by the different vendors and bought many wonderful things over the years. The smaller events that are in the cafe are very grassroots, affordable, and fun. The bulletin boards are also wonderful - many flyers and business cards with helpful services.

The staff is great!! Brittany will give you what you ask for when you ask for it, Tiffany will murder you with abuse and you'll enjoy your last breath, and Leslie will have you laughing before the punchline of the joke. May I recommend the Zywiec Porter, it's strong yet drinkable. If you are a pool player then this is a good place to check out, there ARE elite talents, but even the worst of players (me amongst them) will give you a challenge. 5 stars?, it's not fine dining, it's just a fun time,

We held our wedding at the Multicultural Arts Center in Cambridge and it was the most beautiful,…read moreintimate, old-world-Boston setting for a wedding! We got married in late October and were fortunate enough to get a sunny, mid-60s day. The brick outside is absolutely beautiful, but the space inside is just take-your-breath-away lovely! We had ~115 people attend our wedding and had more than enough room for a dance floor with a DJ. We even had a Bulgarian Dance Group come in and do a performance and there was enough space. We worked primarily with Jeff R. at the CMAC who was amazing! He was extremely helpful throughout the entire process (even on the day of the wedding itself - he was there until long after the event ended). He even recommended an uplighting vendor who was great as well and he added all of these mini touches that made the entire experience special (like focusing a light on us as we made our big entrance down the staircase as husband & wife).

This venue is absolutely beautiful. We were struck by both the courtyard, where we had our…read moreceremony, and the theater, where dinner was served. The theater itself is so beautiful that, other than table linens and flowers, we did not decorate it at all because the architecture, marble, and ceiling are so striking. We also used the standard lighting and did not need any extra lights. CMAC gives you a list of approved caterers, so it narrows your options a bit (which was good for us, since we needed a place to start) and will rent tables and chairs to you. We also rented a piano for dinner, and all of these items come out of your deposit. The location is great in that it is close to the T and a parking garage; we walked to a boat near the Cambridgeside Galleria for our coffee and cake, which we would not have been able to do at another location. It was just perfect for us!!! One thing that was absolutely amazing was the event manager. Jeff completely took care of us and helped us by giving suggestions and being really flexible around rehearsal and event times. He even let us lock up items after the wedding and come back the next day for them. He was awesome! THANK YOU, JEFF!

The food, drinks, and live band also create the full experience. The non-special-event nights at the Fly are also fabulous. This club has a reputation of being a little bit preppier than others and it is classy and cleaner. I miss college :/ !!!

I visited and got to hang out there without knowing anyone -- though it helped that I was with two girls. I don't give it four stars only because the people are not the most exciting, and all you can do is have drinks or play pool. But it is usually one of the few places you can go to keep drinking after 2 AM so it's worth checking out after other places close. **Update**: it had been a few years, but about a week or two ago I was able to get into the place again after a messy night in Harvard Square and one too many Tasty Burgers. They still let you drink for free, which was great. I made some Harvard references and the club members seemed wary but OK with me being there.

Came here a few weeks ago to see Neena Freelon, a Cambridge singer made good. Lovely jazz singer…read morewith a tight trio backing her up. She sang standards and original compositions, and the vibe of the evening was warm as she interspersed her set with acknowledgements to her Cambridge family and friends in attendance, and the city where she grew up. The drinks were fine; the only complaint was our seats right by the door, which ordinarily wouldn't have been a problem except that the ceiling stage lighting to the left of the stage was in our eyes which made it impossible to see the performer unless she stepped away from the center of the stage, which she didn't do often. There are few jazz clubs in the Boston area so I will always return to the Regattabar if there is someone playing I want to see. I find it a cozy environment although there are a couple of structural pillars that create obstructed viewing that aren't acknowledged upon ticket purchase. I've seen folks seated in those areas; If I ever am placed behind one I will definitely ask to be moved or leave and request refund.

They sell overpriced bottled water ONLY (no tap water available to customers, I felt like I was being nickle and dimed), if you are drinking alcohol and trying to stay hydrated know that you'll be paying for overpriced bottled water AND contribute to consumer waste, I find that unacceptable.

Attended a show there in the summer and while the show was great, the venue is in horrendous shape and they don't care. First, they claim to be ADA compliant. That's pretty much a lie. They're wheelchair accessible, *IF* they remember to open the door that leads to the elevator, and ALSO to unlock the door that leads to the venue, HOWEVER, they very often forget one or both of those, but also, they do NOT have an accessible restroom!! Saloon, down the hall, allows use of their accessible restroom, *IF* they're open, but they have cut their hours, and were not open during the aforementioned show. No warning, just no ADA-compliant restroom. This is BAD. I have emailed the venue FOUR TIMES and have been completely ignored. So here we are. A place that used to be quirky but cool, is now just a little craphole that sometimes manages to book good talent. I would definitely advise my friends who produce shows to find elsewhere. Communication is important. So is accessibility. They do NOT care. I was going to be nice and give 2 stars, but you know what? With their willingness to refuse to talk about/include accessibility, they can take their one star and shove it.

Atmosphere is lovely. There were only two other tables on a cold Friday night. We had tried to reserve online and it wouldn't work so we showed up without and were easily seated. The service was exemplary. He was very friendly, made recommendations. We had the appetizer sampler, choose 3, we had the arancini, mozzarello wrapped in prosciutto ( which was fried) and truffle fries. This was supposedly homemade, but tasted reheated and I disliked that the prosciutto being fried. The entrees were much better and we enjoyed beef stroganoff and shrimp scampi. We then enjoyed his recommendation of nutella crepe for dessert.
