Dining and coffee options range from neighborhood cafés to restaurants and food spots around CambridgeSide, with additional shopping at the mall. Kendall/MIT’s galleries, public art, and nightlife are close by, and the Green Line’s Lechmere station, buses, and bike routes make trips around Cambridge and Boston convenient.
