Take a break from the bustle of the Harvard Longwood campus to stop by Sebastian's Café, where we offer everything from a light breakfast to a hearty lunch to a midday snack to tide you through the workday.
Sebastian's also supports the University's sustainability goals, and was the first Harvard location to be Green Restaurant Certified. Among our initiatives are the use of fully compostable corn-based disposables, re-usable mug and water bottle incentives, green cleaning products, and more.
