Located on Mass Ave. in Cambridge between Harvard Square and Porter Square, Cambridge Common is a pub-grub beer-bar that caters perfectly to its college-aged crowd. This isn't an upscale place, but Charlie Christopher, owner of Christopher's, Toad, and West Side Lounge, has been keeping his Red Line crowd happy for years with high-quality, low-priced food.

Bostonist is sure that you have seen the movie that made you rethink about Moon Boots and an animal known as a "ligre": Napoleon Dynamite, a low budget film put out last year by MTV Films. If the bitter temperatures of this weekend have had you holed up inside, why not venture out and meet up with Napoleon and friends. The West Side Lounge is holding free movie showings on Sundays for the month of February. Tomorrow night is Napoleon Dynamite at 9 p.m. (next week is "Punch Drunk Love" with Adam Sandler). The bar here serves up lots of innovative drinks (from ginger martinis to blood orange margaritas), so ask the bartender for a drink menu. The West Side Lounge is at 1680 Mass Ave., between the Harvard Square T stop and the Porter Square stop.
