No mention of Cambridge or the Cantab that I can see in this Globe article

Boston after dark is incomparable to New York or Miami, let alone the rowdy staples of Europe: Amsterdam, Berlin, and Barcelona.      https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/07/02/business/boston-nightlife-is-entering-new-era-or-least-its-trying/?s_campaign=breakingnews:newsletter

RC Smith, the cofounder of the Boston Black Hospitality Coalition, added that every neighborhood deserves attention — not just those seeing rapid (and expensive) expansion. He’s hoping that changes in city policy can spread the growth of neighborhood-friendly night life to places like Mattapan and Roxbury, where he runs a tavern called District 7.

“In a perfect world, I want Nubian Square to look like Lower Mills,” with a smattering of watering holes and nighttime restaurants, Smith said. “Because if more people came to Roxbury, Roxbury people will thrive. Once you get money in the door, you grow.”

Still, a sobering reality persists. The public perception is dismal, with 88 percent of respondents to a Boston.com survey faulting the city for closing too early and having too few late-night restaurants, food trucks, and clubs. One person called Boston “a liberal city whose night life is imprisoned in a chastity belt.”
