The Enormous Room

567 Massachusetts Ave Cambridge, MA   Map
617.491.5550

Like the Artist Formerly (and, after a brief respite, currently) known as Prince, the Enormous Room announces its existence with a symbol. You'll know you're in the right place when you see the silhouette of an elephant, affixed to a door in the general vicinity of Central Kitchen. Up one flight of stairs one discovers the Room itself, which looks like the upshot of a 'Trading Spaces' episode featuring Lou Reed's loft -- as envisioned by Ali Baba. Languid hipsters recline on ample pillows on a raised platform along the wall, while everything from acid jazz to R&B flows from the sound system, courtesy of a revolving roster of local DJs. In the mix for the future, according to chef/owner Gary Strack, is alternative entertainment ranging from performance art to play readings. Until then, the E.R. remains Central Square's closest contender to the upscale ambience of Bostonian hangs like Mantra and Red Fez, offering cocktails almost as generous as its square footage. --

    I spin there 2-3 times a month. Love it there, great sound system and a DJ booth made with DJs in in mind.

    Favorite place in Boston/Cambridge - low key or active - whatever you make of it. Either way its the chillest place around, such a good vibe, and good friendly people. If you like Thievery Corporation, Thunderball, RJD2, Layo & Bushwacka, or random breaks and beats with chill undertones, you'll love this place.
  7. Excellent Spot

    you can chill out, sofa style. low tables, just watch the peeps dance or get up and shake a leg yourself. drinks are ok, you can get food from downstairs (central kitchen), and the cover is something like $3 if that... or if you go early after work, you can bring a large group and no one is there, you can have the place to yourselves.. dj in the corner..and experimental nights monday/some other nights/???/check it out..!
