The Window Shop (56 Brattle St.) is an outdoor cafe that provides a front row bleacher seat as to who's who at the Casablanca (where the preppies hang out for their booze). Grendel's Den (on Boylston St. across from the Hungry Persian) is a basement coffee house with great spicy shiskebab, an endless selection of the most select folk rock albums, and some of the most carelessly elegant counterculture waiters around...
