davis_squareI'm seeing a show at the Somerville Theatre soon, and I've only been to Davis Square once. I loved the area and would like to do a little exploring before the show. I know this comm is crawling with restaurant reviews, but can anyone recommend a good one within easy access to the theatre? Doesn't have to be fancy or expensive, but a nice ambience for a small group would be cool.
Anywhere else (cool shops, strange landmarks, awesome places to park) within easy access of the theatre you can tell me about would also be greatly appreciated. (Is that cupcake shop anywhere nearby, perchance?) Apologies if this is the sort of thing that gets asked too often, but I just don't know the area well enough to figure out what goes where.
Thanks!
ETA: This community is amazing. You make me want to move to Somerville. :D

Date: 2009-03-05 02:15 am (UTC)We parked in the lot right behind the theatre (well, not right behind it, more like diagonal to it) without problems, because we got there early (around 4pm or so). Took a lot of the suggestions to heart as we walked around, including Magpie (very cool shop), and eventually ended up at Alfresco - which I have to say was INCREDIBLE for the price range. The pasta was amazingly fresh and tasty...I would definitely go back there. Kickass Cupcakes (which is practically next door) didn't disappoint either, but I'm a serious cupcake fiend. Saw the MOBA too, and of course watching Joel and the others for Cinematic Titanic was the grand finale.
All in all, I still think Davis is very cool and would love to come back. I dunno, there's just a character about the place I think is special. I would think you agree in some capacity as you live there. ;}
