Cute little spot with great food n drink offerings. Very reasonable prices considering the speed and taste of everything. Very much enjoyed walking in and getting a thai iced tea within a minute of my order and sipping it outside at their outdoor seating. Staff was friendly as well. Definitely will come back and try the other food and drink options!! Edit: have now came back multiple times, doing take out one twice and dine in once. Both takeout orders were we ready at the expected time for pick up, warm, and had all items packaged. Edit edit: Tom yum noodle soup is amazing, nice and nutty with great spice and darker flavors from the fried chicken. Exciting to try something new. When dining in the staff was attentive, helpful, and friendly. I got the grilled chicken plate (Gai Yang), spring rolls, and a thai tea. All were presented nicely and satisfactorily filling. Love this spot!!!

Yet another Thai Chicken and Rice gem that serves delicious and affordable plates in North Cambridge. Thai Chicken Rice may not be a sophisticated dish requiring intricate techniques, but it’s a comforting classic that rarely disappoints. No matter where you order it, you're almost guaranteed a delicious meal, and Chicken & Co was no exception. In GBA, there are three spots specializing in this dish, and while the offerings are nearly identical, Chicken & Co has a slightly bigger menu. Beyond the standard, they serve up crave-worthy extras like crispy chicken skin and Crispy Pork Belly Rice. From the small plates, I couldn’t resist trying the Zaab Wings (naturally), Duck Wings, and the Crispy Chicken Skin. Unsurprisingly, the Zaab Wings was my favorite—juicy to the bone with a bold, tangy seasoning that made them irresistible. The Duck Wings, however, didn’t quite take flight. A bit tougher and drier than expected. One thing I loved about the main menu at Chicken & Co. was the customizable "Chicken Duo" rice plate, where you can mix and match two out of four meat options. So, instead of the usual poached chicken and crispy chicken combo, you can switch things up with, say, crispy pork belly and crispy chicken. The crispy pork belly I tried on my first visit was excellent, so on my second visit, I went with the classic crispy chicken and poached chicken duo. While the poached chicken was spot-on, the crispy chicken didn’t quite measure up to their stellar wings. Next time, I'll definitely stick with the winning combo: pork belly and poached chicken.

Chicken and Co. - 2261 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, MA 02140 We went all out on Thai food and drinks at Chicken and Co. and had quite the feast! Drinks Thai Iced Tea - A classic! Sweet, creamy, and comforting. A must-have. Butterfly Pea Milk - Gorgeous drink! Loved the color-changing magic, but my heart belongs to Thai tea. Thai Iced Coffee - Smooth, rich, and perfectly sweetened. A great pick-me-up! Verdict: Drinks were top-tier! 9/10 Food Tom Yum Noodle Soup with Crispy Chicken (13.95) Spicy, tangy, and super filling! The crispy chicken paired well with the flavorful broth. 8/10 Zaab Wings (8.95) Perfectly seasoned and even better with the sweet chili sauce! A must-try. 9/10 Crispy Chicken Skin (6.95) Extra crispy, well-seasoned, and great for snacking. 8/10 Truffle Fries (7.95) Crispy but needed more truffle flavor. A little underwhelming. 6/10 Daikon Soup Simple, light, and comforting. 8/10 Gai Tod (Crispy Chicken Rice) & Moo Tod (Crispy Pork Belly Rice) The crispy chicken over ginger rice was the winner for me! The pork belly was good but not a fan of the tamarind sauce. 8/10 Dessert Sweet Sticky Rice with Mango & Coconut Ice Cream A Thai classic done right—creamy, sweet, and refreshing. 9/10 Final Thoughts Food: 8/10 Affordability: 8/10 (Great portions for the price!) Ambiance: 7/10 (Cute spot, small seating, but they were playing the new Lady Gaga album! ) Verdict: If you’re craving crispy chicken, Thai flavors, and refreshing drinks, Chicken and Co. is a solid pick! Grab a feast and enjoy it while watching White Lotus!

Great chicken rice! I’m partial to the Hainanese version with ginger scallion sauce, but their Thai rendition packs vibrant flavors. Succulent chicken, tangy sauces, and a comforting, homey vibe.

Chicken game on lock. Literally cannot go wrong with any of the choices —they are all perfectly juicy and paired well with delectable sauces. The Duck Wings produce that deeply satisfying crunch that I love, but my personal favorite is the Gai Yang (grilled chicken) because the tamarind sauce paired with it goes crazy. The ginger rice is also a unique and very nice touch to the dishes. Do not miss out on this up and coming gem.

Wow so good, didn't really know what to expect but will definitely be coming back. The pork stew (kha moo) is incredibly tender texture and the dressing sides are a great match. I think the spicy chicken (gai Saab) was the best though - super flavorful, not too oily, really perfectly balanced flavors. The diakon soup side gave a refreshing and comforting element as well. Overall fantastic place, go try!

Solid 10. It’s simple, it’s fried chicken, not many people can perfect it but they do. Poached chicken also good and tender too. Definitely place to go if im looking for thai chicken rice

The food is fresh and packed with flavor! Service is good and welcoming. I got the Thai iced tea and tom yum noodle soup in my last visit and they’re probably my favorite dishes here but the chicken and rice dishes are also great.
