Pretty good Pho. It's right by Boston Common, where you'll inevitably end up, regardless of where you're interested in traveling. ~$9.

It's MIT. You have to go just to say you did. Plus, it's along the Charles River (which you should drop $20-$30 to kayak along!) and most everyone loves the walk along Mass Ave between Harvard and MIT. Personally, I like "Building 10": it has posters for all kinds of clubs and indirectly shows you the life of the MIT campus.

Entertainment & Activities
The Red Sox! Ticket prices are steep if you're not a fan but... I got in for free with a friend by holding up a "I *heart* the Red Sox! I *heart* Free Tickets!" sign. Rethink possible :P

Sightseeing
Mostly a tourist trap now, but still an interesting walk if you've never been. Pho Pasteur is there, and it's very close to Boston Common and the harbor.
