What People Are Saying
from Google"Tell me where else in Cambridge you can get a burger, fries, and a draught beer (any of your choosing, not just a subset) for $12 M-F before 4 PM? The sign outside this restaurant landed me roaming in and Im glad I did! I sat at the bar and there was enough space to at least keep a stool between you and the next party, the place was comfortably busy. Daniel - the bartender and seemingly only person in the whole place rocked it! The food was perfectly timed and there were no gimmicks, it really was $12 (before tax and tip). I tossed a $20 and called it a day with tip for his speedy and attentive service and because this was an incredibly fair deal by the restaurant - I hope others tip Daniel based on regular and not discounted price, otherwise Id imagine it could get tricky making it as a server there with this deal. The bun was a nice thick roll (like a Calise bun) and burger was great - could have used a few more fries, but I also got a typically pricier beer for part of that $12 bundle so I cant complain. The fries were a nice thicker cut to golden crispyness and lightly seasoned to perfection. Great weekday value and cozy spot. Cheers!"
"The best place to watch UEFA Europa League games (Lille - PAOK 3-4)! Great service from the manager and good range of beers! We had the burger+beer combo (very good option if on budget). Will definitely go back. Highly recommended!"
"A great selection of beers on tap (as well as wine and cider for non-beer drinkers). The atmosphere was warm and welcoming - we happened to be there for a trivia night which was a blast! The food was also delicious, and our server was very proactive about allergens!"
"The Plough and Stars is a regular for my roommates and I! It’s very much a classic local bar you come to get the occasional beer and catch up with friends. We usually come here for beers, but we actually got dinner for once as well. I think the big call out for us were the Chili Rubbed Chicken Wings. They were tasty and very crispy. Based on other reviews the brunch here seems to be good as well so I will definitely try that out next time!"
"Nice little Irish pub near Harvard square. I went there for brunch on a Sunday. The catfish sandwich was good. They have approximately 13 beers on tap and a good selection of liquors. The ambience is good. Patio seating is available. Overall, a nice place to check out if you’re in or around Harvard square"
