About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Vegetarian-friendly
  • Neighborhood gem
Forage is a farm to table neighborhood bistro in Cambridge right off of Harvard Square. Through partnerships with local farmers, fishermen, and foragers, ​we offer an ever-changing seasonal menu served in a comfortable setting. We offer tasting menus every night, and proudly accommodate all dietary restrictions. Wine pairings or non alcoholic cocktails are available to compliment your meal.

The bar program at Forage ​works closely with the kitchen team's zero waste efforts to make innovative cocktails, using locally sourced ingredients. Bar manager Josh Watts is always up to something unexpected...

​Forage also boasts an esoteric but approachable list of natural/biodynamic wines, curated by Teague Mitchell. We have special pours available every night, and often some open bottles that aren't on the menu... Just ask!

Chefs Eric Cooper and Alycia Palame are drawing from global cuisine's to create a hyper local and increasingly creative menu. They invite you to join the adventure!

    We ordered the tasting menu and it was underwhelming at best. We had 4 different dishes, which included the dessert. Each dish for whatever reason had uncooked asparagus with it. Even though it is not overly expensive compared to other tasting menus, it still is overpriced based on the ingredients and quality of the food. Without a doubt the worst tasting menu I’ve ever had.

    Phenomenal food, farm to table at its finest, depending on season may have ingredients repetitive across offered dishes but all cooked with unique ways. Worth the price tag!

    This was our second time at Forage and our first for the vegan tasting menu. Each course was delicious and well pared with NA cocktails! The service was truly delightful!

    We ate the vegan tasting menu, which was excellent. Also available in omnivore, pescatarian, and vegetarian. The service was the real standout here. So attentive and helpful. Answered many food questions for us and it was clear each person had a passion for everything they offer. The cocktails were terrific. One course of our tasting featured fiddleheads, which it turns out I didn’t care for. When they realized this, they adjusted each of the future courses that had those to remove them for me (without me having to ask). When we asked about a spirit that was in our cocktail, they brought out tiny glasses for a tasting of that spirit. Really nice experience.

    It's cool basement, but still a basement. The vegetables were good, but the steak, fish, polenta were so-so, and surely not a good ratio price-quality. Wine choices lean German. The staff and the service was was good.

    Every dish was delicious. We did the tasting menu (one vegan, one omnivore) with the non-alcoholic pairing. We've never been to a restaurant with a more thoughtful NA beverage selection. Interesting, complex, delicious flavors all around.
