Hidden Gem of Cambridge
Tucked in between MBTA’s green line and red line, Inman Square is one of Cambridge’s most charismatic hidden gems.
Centered where Cambridge and Hampshire Streets meet, this culturally rich East Cambridge district blends historic character with an energetic, lived-in vibe. Strolling down the streets, you will find multicolored storefronts, mostly owner-operated businesses, and a globally inspired dining scene shaped by strong Brazilian and Portuguese influences, plus Eastern Mediterranean, Indian, Mexican, and more.
Named for 18th-century merchant Ralph Inman, the neighborhood today is a welcoming mix of professionals, students from MIT and Harvard, and long-time working-class residents.
