Tucked into Cambridge, this cozy volunteer-run café blends community purpose with home-style cooking. Known for expertly brewed fair-trade coffee and hearty sandwiches and soups at very low prices, it delivers generous portions, friendly service, and free local events in a casual, no-frills setting. Ideal for families, teens, and budget-minded travelers seeking authentic local flavor and takeout. Expect welcoming regulars, attentive volunteer staff, plain seating, and occasionally slow service as each meal is made with care.

Their small batch coffees are great and priced less than expected. My favorite sandwich is their Reuben sandwich $3 plus coleslaw.

I wonderful local place to eat, which supports a humane organization. I had one of the best Capri sandwiches I ever had. Generous, and with actual pine nuts in the pesto. The homemade vegetable soup was delicious. I had the sandwich, cup of soup(again, generous), and a glass of ice tea for about $8.50! Go there if you're in the Cambridge area, or even passing through onyour way to the beach.

Stopped in from out of town before a meeting, held in an adjacent room. The cafe is cozy with lots of windows, definitely a local vibe. Greeted right away. I ordered a regular black coffee and was given option of light or dark. I drink my coffee black,and it was early, so I went dark. For a 16 oz., I paid $1.25 for a ?smooth Mexican blend,? according to the server. I expressedthat was a deal. The server then informed me that Overflow Cafe workers are all volunteers, which keeps the prices low. Thecoffee was indeed a high quality dark smooth roast, and I appreciated that the business is there to support the community.Enough said. Skip Starbucks and all other chains. Support this place.
