The neighborhood serves up obscenely large breakfasts on their large and charming outdoor patio (patio is summer only). They make all of their own bread and the cream of wheat is really yummy (strange, but true). Expect to wait on the weekends.

Sightseeing
everybody wants to see the statue if John Harvard in the yard, but there are plenty of other interesting things to do around this vibrant and charming square. More upscale than it used to be, but still good people watching and plenty of places to eat.
