The sides, including mac&cheese and collard greens, are also well-received. The menu features a selection of options such as chicken sandwiches, ribs, and chicken combo, all seasoned to perfection. The quality of the food remains consistently excellent, though there have been rare reports of overcooked chicken. Customers appreciate the commitment to tradition and quality, as the cafe has been a family business for over 20 years, following cherished family recipes. Despite potential long wait times and rising prices over the years, the high quality of the food makes The Coast Cafe a hidden gem in Cambridge.
