Great for Beers but Mediocre Food

Really 2.5 stars. Cambridge Common is a frequent destination for HLS students looking to grab a few drinks with a large crew – and occasionally some cheap eats.

The dimly lit restaurant is often crowded and somewhat tightly packed. There’s a large bar area for those who just want to drink and a handful of TVs perennially tuned to ESPN. Beer selection is plentiful and they serve fairly potent mixed drinks in a pint glass. At the very least it will probably make your food taste better!

Good selection of beers at low prices. I prefer t

Fish and Chips

Heaping plate of scrod. Lots of fries. Not the best I’ve ever had, but certainly not the worst.
