Profile

Owner Andrew Silverman’s empire of global eateries like Steak Frites and Sushi Samba goes down-home American at the bustling comfort-cuisine staple Chat 'n Chew. Regulars know to order the crispy-topped macaroni and cheese, with chicken or bacon added. The overly greasy fried chicken is a miss, but creamy, butter-laden mashed potatoes are definitely something to write home about. And if you need a little extra comforting, save room for the thick, fudgey Coca-Cola cake, made with the soft drink syrup. — Sandra Nygaard

Recommended Dishes

Macaroni and cheese, $10.95; Thanksgiving on a Roll, $11.95; BLT, $8.50; Coca-Cola cake, $6.45

Delicious homecooked food you wont be disappointed -- I just visited CnC for the first time -- had the Miss Patty's Chicken Sammy (grilled chix breast) - loved it......

I've been going to Chat n Chew for years. Always friendly staff and great comfort food at decent price. Red velvet cake is unbelievable. The place is low key and friendly and great to take friends or kids. If you need to find a place to take your parents, this would be it. Ribs were on special once and they were awesome. hope they come back again. Awesome sandwiches too.
