Gift Tips

  • Try the Vietnamese coffee drinks, especially the sea salt shaker or Saigon latte, for a signature Cicada experience.
  • Order one of the rice bowls or noodle dishes if you want a fuller meal with fresh flavors and a modern Vietnamese twist.
  • Save room for a pastry or dessert case item, since the baked goods are a standout part of the visit.
  • If the weather is nice, ask for the back patio or garden seating for a more relaxed meal or coffee break.
  • For a group visit, the small plates and shareable appetizers make it easy to sample several dishes in one meal.

Cicada Coffee Bar is a modern Vietnamese cafe in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in the Central Square area. It offers a mix of coffee, brunch, and dinner in a small space that feels stylish without being formal.

  • Ambiance: Cicada Coffee Bar has a casual, trendy feel with a compact indoor space and a comfortable back patio. The setting works well for a relaxed coffee stop, brunch, or a low-key date.
  • Cuisine: The menu focuses on modern Vietnamese dishes, coffee drinks, pastries, and brunch items. Guests can find rice bowls, noodle dishes, small plates, and sweet and savory drinks with Vietnamese flavors.
  • Highlights: Vietnamese iced coffee, sea salt shaker coffee, and dishes like salmon bowls, spring rolls, and banh mi are among the most talked-about items. The bakery case and outdoor seating also add to the experience.

The restaurant stands out for its balance of fast-casual service and thoughtful food. Guests order at the counter, then settle in with drinks, pastries, or a meal that leans fresh and flavorful. The menu is not large, but it gives diners a few strong choices across breakfast, lunch, and evening service.

Cicada Coffee Bar is a good fit for someone looking for something a little different from a standard cafe. Its Vietnamese coffee drinks are a draw, and the food adds enough variety to make repeat visits appealing. The patio and evening lighting give it extra charm when the weather is nice.

It is also a practical spot for people who enjoy a lively neighborhood cafe with a modern edge. The space feels intimate, and the food has enough range to work for a casual outing, a brunch plan, or a simple meal with friends.
