Cash & Olive's Pub — Restaurant in Town of Oakland

Update from visit Sept 2025: this was our 3rd visit over the past year or two, we eat out about once a month and go to various Cambridge/Deerfield restaurants for fish. We were excited to try Cash & Olive's again after reading their perch special from the Facebook site. The person that took our order was unaware of this, but checked and they were out of perch, OK. Attempted to order the cod on the normal menu, also sold out. With no other fish options at 630pm, we left. The staff seems nice every visit, this is the most expensive restaurant to eat at in Cambridge with the plow closed now. Im not sure we'll be back, the past 2 times the food has been ok, usually the main part of the dish has been great but the sides like fries/chips have been meh. The staff are always amazing.

Tried Cash & Olive's for the first time, the service was excellent. Our server was friendly and constantly was visible and checked in. There were multiple waitstaff for the dining room.

The chicken sandwich and fish fry was delicious, we opted for fries and were a bit disappointed with those, shoestring fries needed a bit of seasoning and got cold quick because they are so thin. The fried cod was on par for our top 3 fish fries in Cambridge.

We got appetizers because of a coupon, they were good but without a coupon seems really over priced.

If you want great sevice and fresh food this seems like a great choice, as long as you don't mind paying a few bucks extra for...

It was pretty bad. Went on a Saturday afternoon with my husband and 2 year old. Took a few minutes before we were even greeted. There were only 5 people sitting at the bar and not a single table filled, so they weren’t busy. In hindsight, we should’ve just left. After searching for a booster seat ourselves, we sat down. We ordered the goat balls and crab rangoon for appetizers. The goat balls were cold in the middle and they had a watery sauce dumped on them, which made no sense. The crab rangoon was okay. But an insanely small portion for the price. You basically get 2 rangoons cut in half. We did eat all our appetizers, since we were hungry. For entrees we orders the Cuban and Ruben sandwiches; 1 with kettle chips and 1 with fries at a $2 up charge. They were BAD. The meat in both was soggy and stringy; essentially inedible. The fries were nothing special for $2 extra and they absolutely needed ketchup. However, the ketchup at our table was sticky to touch and crusty on the top, so we didn’t trust it. The Cuban’s meat was much the same and had so much mustard it was disgusting. Our server was young and sweet enough, but never checked in on us and had to flag her down for the check. All of the food we ordered was suggested to us by our server. We paid way too much. Food bad, service meh. We...

Tried this place for the first time for a Friday fish fry. It was fantastic, we got the cheese curds which were unique and delicious, they came out quick, were shaped like a cube and not the typically cheese pull, but were crispy on the outside and soft inside. The fish was great, thin and crispy batter with soft flaky fish. Good portions. Wife got sweet potato fries which were crispy and fluffy done perfectly. I got American potatoes loaded up. Could use some seasoning on the potatoes but they were homemade and good. I wouldn’t get them with out loading them up with onions peppers cheese and bacon. To be honest I didn’t get any bacon and could’ve used more cheese. Rye bread was super soft. Salad bar was typical Wisconsin style pretty small but enough to get the dinner started. Coleslaw is vinegar based which is not my preference but still good. They seem to have really great specials all week long. A little more of a fun take on a Wisconsin diner. Right on the golf course with a nice outdoor patio. Service is upbeat/friendly and quick.It was pretty loud in the bar area but dining area was fine. We will...
