Comments: Free bathrooms are almost impossible to find in Harvard Square. The Coop's are way upstairs, and have recently been remodeled. Since they are about the only free ones in the square, they are always busy, so pick up a book on your way upstairs to read while in line.

Comments: Upon entering this building, find your way to the basement. Often full of students relaxing, this basement also contains bathrooms, phones, and a water fountain. If there is a performance in the theater, the bathroom will be accessible late. Perhaps it's always open late, not sure.
