From the owners of Grafton Street and Redline comes a neighborhood bar that brings everything its siblings do, but with even more pretension. Grad students and young locals, as well as the occasional Quadling, flock to Temple Bar in droves on weekend nights to mingle and drink in style, while a more subdued after-work crowd dominates on weeknights. The seasonal menu features New American cuisine with hints of everything from Irish to Japanese fare. The portions are huge, and everything from appetizers ($8-10) to entrees ($15-20) is sauteed or coated with creative and distinct sauces. Come for dinner and stay for drinks to watch this temple come to life. Wine $6-7 per glass, beer $4-4.50. Don't forget Brunch on Saturday and Sunday!

Went for brunch and was happy to find a table available outside. There were three of us and a baby stroller. Although a bit awkward with the stroller, the staff are very accommodating. We had the first three things on the brunch menu: Granola French Toast, Eggs Benedict, Amish Eggs. All of it was delicious. They have hommade Bloody Mary mix with the perfect blend of spices. It is worth it.

Temple Bar is one of my favorite places in Cambridge. It's best to wait for a seat at one of the circular booths in the dining room. They're very comfy cozy! I've eaten in the bar area and found it way to loud to have a conversation. Plust the tables are too close together in that section and the bar is always packed. I always start off with the fondue which comes with everything from bread to bacon for dipping. Yum! My favorite entree is the steak frites. The salmon is a close second. The vahlrona cake for dessert is delicious and comes with a peanut butter cookie pop! Temple Bar is also one of the few places in the area that carries Spires Shiraz which goes great with the steak for just $8!! Parking on Mass Ave can be tough to find. They do have a valet and also a small parking lot tucked behind the building where you can sometimes luck out.
