Calling all foodies! We'd love to take you on a Food Tour neighborhood adventure in Harvard Square!

Join us for a delicious culinary adventure through historical Harvard Square. You'll hear interesting stories about the Square, learn fun facts about the places we visit, and sample the best and most interesting food around -- and a lot of it. Located right outside of Boston in Cambridge on the Red Line MBTA Train Stop, Harvard Square is home to Harvard University and also has a flourishing food scene with some of the best and most unique food in the city.

Each tour is 2 hours and includes 5 stops with plenty of food and less than a mile of walking. We can't wait to take you on a unique, foodie adventure! While we can accommodate gluten or dairy-free options on our other tours, on this tour there are two stops where gluten or dairy-free substitutions are not available unfortunately.

Its unfortunate that access to the Harvard campus was prohibited due to the protests, but our guide did a good job of making the tour informative, interesting and enjoyable

The Harvard Square Food Tour with Roberta was so much fun! After a visit to the Harvard Yard, we visited four very different restaurants that were truly off the beaten path. We sampled authentic Greek, Venezuelan, Italian, and Chinese delicacies. The food was delicious and we were quite full by the end of the tour. We highly recommend this tour both to locals as well as visitors to the Boston area!

This tour had some of the most unique tasting selections of any food tour I have been on. Our guide, Chloe, was lovely, knowledgeable and fun. We had a good selection of food and learned some things about Cambridge history.

Enjoyed our food tours on Saturday. Our guide, James, is a student at Harvard and he had a lot of history to share with us. The food was excellent as well. I would highly recommend this tour and James!
