Harvest Just Might Have The Most Epic Dessert Selection In All Of Massachusetts

There's that saying, "save room for dessert," which implies eating a meal first and then you get dessert. But there are some places that maybe, just maybe, you should eat dessert first. For some of the best desserts in Massachusetts, Harvest in Cambridge's Harvard Square is the place to go. And why not have your dessert first while you're here?

As a restaurant that serves contemporary American cuisine, Harvest has been a mainstay in Harvard Square since 1975. With its elegant dining spaces that include a patio, a fireside dining room, and a bar, it's a perfect spot for a lovely time out on the town.

Harvest uses fresh, regional ingredients, so expect the menu to change with the seasons. And you will find the food to be quite delicious, flavorful, and plated like a work of art.

While the brunch, lunch, and dinner menus are outstanding, you may want to either save room for dessert or skip having a meal and just order dessert.
