Harvard Gardens is many things. For one, it is a local Beacon Hill haunt. During the day, a place where nearby MGH folk enjoy lunch. On the weekends, there is a brunch crowd. Dinner is served here featuring upscale comfort food and American favorites such a delectable pastas and delicate salads. However, the real Harvard Gardens is mostly known for it's great bar scene appreciated mostly by Beacon Hillers. Crammed into the long and narrow bar you will find a plethora of preppily clad 20 and 30 somethings looking for fun and someone fun. The bar is crowded, but the drinks are not that expensive. There is something here for everyone, just remember that unless you get there really early thursday - saturday- it is standing room only!

Homemade desserts like a Guinness float or a sinful "chocolate lovers" platter for two are worth a visit alone. With its location across t he street from MGH, the bar enjoys one of the highest ratios of doctors and nurses of any establishment in the city.

The food is OK - standard pub stuff - and the bar is usually pretty decently crowded. The layout of the bar is a little annoying - there's not much space between the bar itself and a rail with tables behind it, so it can get tight in there and kind of tough to order drinks. Crowd is a little random, from what I can tell - everything from cougars to docs from the MGH to locals from Beacon Hill. There tap beer selection is kind of unexciting.
