Beloved Massachusetts Eatery Serves The 'Best Fried Chicken' In The State

Some things in life are worth chasing: true love, lost luggage, and unbelievably good fried chicken.

Some eateries talk a big game, boasting "world-famous" wings that taste suspiciously like yesterday’s leftovers. But every once in a while, you stumble on a place (maybe it’s a roadside shack, maybe it’s a no-frills diner) that absolutely nails it. We’re talking crispy, golden skin that shatters like glass, juicy meat that drips flavor, and seasoning that whispers secrets to your taste buds.

Yeah, that kind of fried chicken. In Massachusetts, there’s a restaurant dishing out poultry perfection, and LoveFood has tracked it down. No hype, no gimmicks, just honest-to-goodness fried chicken that might make you cancel your dinner plans for the rest of the week. So loosen your belt, grab some napkins, and let’s dig into the best fried chicken Massachusetts has to offer.

According to a list compiled by LoveFood, the best fried chicken in Massachusetts is served at The Coast Cafe in Cambridge.

Here's what LoveFood had to say about the best place to order a basket of fried chicken in the state:

"The Coast Cafe was opened in 1997 by Tony Brooks and his sister Julie, with the slogan 'food from the soul.' The business is committed to serving the best fried chicken and mac ’n’ cheese in New England and, based on the rave reviews from customers, it's succeeding. The fried chicken is obviously the star here, but you won't go wrong by pairing it with candied yams and finishing your meal with sweet potato pie."
