What whatter: A lot of people come here who think they are cool but they are just boring like everybody else. That’s the scene. It can be ok but feels kind of dark and cramped. Maybe they are communists? I don’t know.

Chiara Masnovo: Lovely spot for a cheapish beer and decent food!

Brian O'Reilly: Came for brunch with some mates on Sunday. Staff was very friendly and the Irish breakfast was excellent. Will certainly return!Vegetarian options: Most brunch items contain meat, but the huevos rancheros or french toast might hit the spot for a vegetarian!

Richard Cheng: Hamburger is as basic as you can get in bar food. It is so easy to make it right by using high heat. Yet Plough & Star can make theirs so blah by using low heat. Not many bar food can match that.

Tunc Oz: Great vibes

Christine Del Vecchio: Live music 🎶

Vanessa: Perhaps the cutest dive bar in the area (however they do have food so it may not be a true dive). Great service and atmosphere. Also love that they have weekly live music! It can get crowded as it is a small space

Steve Kitay: Small, old-fashioned Cambridge bar that serves a lot of Guinness. Great fun if you like generally superb music and if don't mind close quarters.Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More

Bailey Waldorf: This spot is only a five minute walk from my residence which makes it an easy choice if my partner and I don't feel like taking a hike to find a hot meal.The food has always been good, but not always great. However, if you've read any of my other reviews you'll know that an excellent eggs benedict goes a long way with me and says a lot about the kitchen it came from. Namely because hollandaise sauce is no easy thing to make.I have had there traditional Benny before and was a little disappointed in the hollandaise sauce from this particular visit. It was beginning to separate when it reached our table. But for this past Sunday my partner and I wanted a quick brunch fix and I am happy to report the hollandaise was on point this time.Instead of the traditional eggs benny I went for their poached eggs. This dish was absolutely delicious! Hopefully my photo of this incredible dish will do it justice because it's certainly worth a try.The poached eggs are served with a toasted English muffin over a bed of pork confit. The pork confit reminded me of pork chow mein and it went so well with the perfectly poached eggs and hollandaise sauce.As I understand it this place has some history. The Plough and Stars is one of the older bars in Cambridge. Modern and bright are NOT words I'd use to describe this atmosphere. With it's low warm lighting and decades of serving the community it's earned a worn in, homey feel to it, but keep in mind it's no dive bar either. It's always clean and inviting. A good spot for old friends to come together and catch up over a pint The staff do a great job of making you and your party feel right at home here.#eggsbenedict #poachedeggs #hollandaise #cambridgecusine

JeffLovesJets: This was just the spot we were looking for to have a good beer and food while visiting the city. Very cozy! And the gentleman behind the bar took good care of us. The linguini was delicious.

Kevin M. Doyle: Generally full of hipster Harvard students, but a few salty regulars are often found at the bar. Good, sometimes quirky musical acts play on weekends. Decently stocked bar and not a bad selection of draft beers on tap.Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More
