The 50 best breakfast and brunch in Providence

What a perfect find in Providence!! We enjoyed every minute and bite!! The restaurant is dog friendly on the patio which is perfect for those traveling with a pooch!! The menu offers delicious and unique twists on comfort food favorites. It’s no wonder they have won so many awards - DELICIOUS food!! The own is super kind and accommodating as well. He even came out on the patio to greet us and meet our dog. Love the personal service, small business at its very best!! Excellent restaurant and we highly recommend.

Highly enjoyed this place. Drinks were really good. I got the short rib grilled cheese. Hands down one of the best things I've had and the tots were out this world. Crab cakes where about a 6/10 good but the breading not a huge fan but the rest was really good! Staff was friendly and welcoming. Definitely will be going back!

I have been unable to stop thinking about the crab dip. It was rich and velvety. The taste of crab, cheese, and old bay all combined to make the best crab dip I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating. I also got the burger. Beautifully seasoned and the toppings perfectly complemented the meat, enhancing the flavor. The fries were also amazing seasoned with old bay and beautifully cooked so they were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Would HIGHLY recommend this restaurant.

Fabulous food, cozy seating, and an amazing, fun, engaging server (yes, that's YOU Kevin R.!). From apps to dessert, our taste buds were enthused! Thanks for the delicious evening in the City and super appreciate the additional foodie tips! We will be back!

An amazing place. Located inside the Arcade, and full of character. The food was hands down some of the best I have had. Handmade perfectly. French toast that melts in your mouth. They have it all, Benny's, traditional, and savory. Every looks so wonderful. Need to go back next time I visit RI.

The food is on the pricier side but they used quality and generous ingredients. Pierre, our waiter, was attentive, friendly and went to detail when describing the brunch plates. I recommend this place when you come to Providence.

The first time I came here it was great. Service was awesome and food was delicious. The second time I came here was last month with some friends. The waters we got served had things floating in them. Same with the drinks... Fruit flies. We sent them back. You need to do a thorough cleaning of your bar. Service was good, it wasn't the waitresses fault. Also, if I'm paying $16 for a grilled cheese and $14 for a cocktail that fills up half a glass... you should probably have clean cups. We were very disappointed and there were plenty of other places we could have spent our money. It didn't help that there was a birthday party with kids screaming their heads off running around. Not the restaurants fault, just par for the course I guess.

Summary: Honestly expected a lot better. At the price, definitely would not recommend. This experience was bad enough that I felt obligated to leave a review, even if I have mostly stopped reviewing any restaurants. As others have said, the ambiance was lively and the decor was interesting, but everything else was mediocre at best. Poulet aux Poires--This supposedly 'award-winning' dish was the worst offender. Pears poached in wine were interesting, but that was it. Ginger pear sauce was watery and did not stick to anything, chive dumplings were about what you'd get at a slightly subpar local Asian market, and chicken breast was among the driest I've had anywhere—it was difficult to cut and extremely fibrous on the inside. Could not finish this, and the person I shared this meal with had one bite and agreed it was outrageous for the price. DO NOT ORDER. Bread service--butter/cream had a strange aftertaste and no flavor; bread was average Service--feel like we were treated very strangely--at one point we asked for the check, the guy went and told our waiter, and then he essentially ignored it and stood around/went around doing other things for a good ten minutes before finally giving us our check. The restaurant was not busy either, so I was very confused. 'Jumbo' Crab Cake--for that price, I expect more crab over other vegetables and such, although the chunks had good flavor. Duck Confit--slightly above average price for the amount of duck (I think Circe nearby has better value if I remember correctly), rest of dish was alright.

First time in CAV and it was outstanding! Our server was on-point, the artifacts are amazing, and the food…. The food was excellent. We started with a gin martini and a lychee martini. Fresh and delicious. Perfectly poured. Then apps were walnut crusted Brie and calamari. So good. And large portions for the money. I got the scallops and shrimp, while hubby got the bolognese. I’ll let the picture speak for themselves. I HIGHLY recommend this place. You won’t regret it. Also met one of the owners, John, who was so nice! Make this a must stop when you’re in Providence.

What a great find! The place has a super cute, chic antique vibe — perfect for a date night. We showed up with our two kids instead, and surprisingly, it still worked out great! The food was delicious and beautifully plated, and the service was genuinely top-notch — friendly, quick, and professional. The whole place has this cozy speakeasy feel that makes you want to stay a little longer. Definitely going on our “must-return” list (and maybe next time, without the kids 😄).

What a unique dinning experience located in downtown Providence. This restaurant is beautiful with unique antiques surrounding the restaurant. The ambiance sets the dinning experience making you feel like your in Europe. The food was delicious and had a variety of selections from duck to seafood. Although a little on the pricey side the value for the money was worth every penny. Give them a try if you want a great service, a unique atmosphere, and delicious food.

This has quickly become one of my favorite restaurants. I love the food, the decor, and the overall vibe. The seating feels private and cozy, the ambiance is beautifully done, and the service, especially the waitstaff is top-notch. It’s truly a hidden gem!

CAV Restaurant is a thoughtful place. Every component of the restaurant seems to be articulately assessed. "Everything in it's place" feels like a proper phrase for this restaurant. The antiquities that surround the dining tables are a severe example of the decorator's style. There are places in Providence that mix small business and museum, this is one of those places. The menu had a selection that doesn't feel as limited as other niche restaurants. The selection did include gluten-free labeling for those who have the need. The Parmesan Encrusted Free Range Chicken Breast was delicious. The portion size was enough, for a fast metabolism, you may want to order appetizers. I like to judge a place by it's presentation of a Caesar Salad. Some places look like they threw a bunch of lettuce leaves onto a place and smatter some cheese on top, with a sneeze of Caesar dressing. CAV was not this place. We ordered the salad without croutons, and it was delicious. There was some baked parmesan on top of the salad that added to the flavor. The dressing was light enough that it did not overpower the other flavors, such as the lettuce and the cheese. The cocktails were excellent! I ordered the Silver and Gold Margarita, they were flavorful and highlighted the taste of the tequila without the taste of the alcohol. A very unique aspect. CAV is a place where I am curious about it all. When observing all of the artifacts, and the actual space that the restaurant was in, it tells a very cool story. I recommend taking the time to make a reservation and enjoy the time spent there. It is a wonderful thing for CAV to be in Providence!

Very cool vibes in the restaurant, lots of mirrors and chandeliers. Service was okay, drinks were good. Glass top on table had a chip on the side that they covered with painters tape. Food was terrible. The highlight of the meal was the free bread. Lobster pappardelle had a good amount of lobster meat and the pasta was well made but the sauce was disgusting. Parmesan chicken was hard and dry, we tried to tell the staff and she said “oh…yeah” and walked away? Overall not impressed, save your money,

Colorful diner with typical breakfast/brunch foods. Blueberry French toast was great, but wish they would have been fresh instead of dried berries. The wrap I ordered was a little stale, also overpowered by the goat cheese. Side home fries were very good though.

Visited for the first time last week. Overall, I really liked the visit. I loved the decor and the staff and service was great. My only real complaint was the size of the restaurant. It was compact, but it is somewhat expected based on the location. Parking can be a bit tricky and the entrance is like down an alleyway type walkway. The food was great. I had the Brickway special and substituted the toast for a pancake. (Forgot to take a photo of the pancake lol. It was fluffy and tasty. I definitely recommend it.)

We stopped in for breakfast- it was your typical breakfast. We had eggs benny and the breakfast burrito. The burrito was just was big, but lacked flavor. The decor includes old style tables and the art on the wall is cool.

Had a great experience here! The atmosphere is great with all of the murals on the wall and the food was just as good. A good price for the amount of food that you get and it tasted good. Overall a great time coming here!

I have a monthly breakfast date that I keep at this place and I recommend it to people all the time. There’s a nice range of table sizes and the vibe is friendly and welcoming. The omelettes are all excellent and we enjoy trying different things each time we go. I think our favorites are probably the Wonderland in the Eau Claire. Decent home fries and very good coffee. Only one ding for atmosphere because there is very little dampening and if you get a couple loud talking tables, you will definitely strain to hear sometimes. But ain’t that diner life? If you’re in the mood for great omelettes and really nice people, Brickway is rock solid.

Went here for brunch with an older friend who needs a little more time to read the menu and move about. As we were finishing up, the manager/owner asked us if we were done as I was finishing up my coffee and proceeded to grab our cups and yelled "I have more customers waiting!" And stormed off. I understand it is a busy spot and we were finishing up relatively quickly as we needed to move on, but grabbing our things and telling us you have people waiting was incredibly rude especially from the manager/owner. The waitress was nice, food was descent but not worth coming back to that chaos. Treat all customers well please especially your older ones.

Whenever I visit Providence to see my daughter at Johnson and Wales I go on the hunt for a proper steak and eggs. My one meal a day has to be done right. This place rises to the top every time. They serve a real 7 to 8 ounce steak cooked to perfection and if you ask for four eggs you actually get four eggs. Some places just squirt the eggs and it is not really four eggs and the steak is not really steak or not great steak or not even a proper steak. Every time I try somewhere else I am disappointed. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a real steak and eggs breakfast in Providence.

I love this place! The service was fast even on a busy Sunday morning and the matcha smoothie was so creamy and delicious! I got the sausage egg and cheese on sourdough and my bf got the Hash up he couldn't stop thinking about the sandwich all day that's how much he loved it! Great place we will be back!

I love this place!! I came here years ago on a trip and came every day of that trip, and I got to go back yesterday and ordered the same things! I love the iced dirty chai and the Sunday sandwich, they’re so sweet here and let me know how they make the dirty iced chai and I’m soo excited to make it cause this is one of my favorite drinks of allll time

Easily one of the best breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had. Absolutely delicious! Only downside is that this place is so popular and so the wait is a bit long but worth it!

Don't skip. LOVED the vegan wrap and the green smoothie. Super tasty and fresh, full of flavors

Delicious smoothies! Highly recommend arriving early in the morning, especially on a Sunday. Filled with college students and locals. Unfortunately it was a 50 min wait for takeout at 11 am on a Sunday. However, the sandwiches look amazing and we hope to be back!

Come early!! Because parking is crazy! My friends' and I came for a 8am breakfast on Saturday morning and the restaurant was ALREADY full. There is very limited space but absolutely worth the wait! Food was 10/10 delicious. We got a little of everything and couldn't decide what was better, the pancakes or the egg sandwiches. You'll just have to get both next time you visit. ;D

The Vermonster was awesome, I got it on sourdough(I think), rather than a wrap. They also had Gluten Free bread for my partner, which is always an awesome surprise! Great breakfast sandwiches! They did take about 20 minutes for 2, but it was 90 degrees and they were jam packed. I’ll be back for sure my next time through Providence!

Absolutely incredible. Went here for the first time and had the eggs Benedict. The English muffin was huge, the Canadian bacon was thick, the hollandaise sauce amazing, and the home fries super crispy. I have lived in Providence for almost 5 years and I can’t believe I’ve slept on this place! I definitely have to come back soon!

I love this place! For starters, the staff are always friendly! They greet you at the door right away and take very little time if any at all to take your order. The food is always fresh and the cook does an exceptional job of making sure your order is correct and fast. The atmosphere is bubbly and bright and the staff are always smiling.

I stopped by for breakfast and ordered a custom omelette with my choice of ingredients. The food was delicious and well-prepared, but the overall atmosphere completely ruined the experience. Several servers were loudly chatting about personal topics — things like mascara and face creams — throughout my meal. One server in particular, wearing a ring on her nose, was extremely loud and kept laughing every time she thought she said something funny. Their ongoing conversation was so distracting that they couldn’t focus on their work and ended up making mistakes on almost every table, even though there were only three occupied at the time. My server was polite and attentive, but the cook, who was also part of the loud group, got my order wrong. I had requested whole wheat toast with no butter, but I was served white bread with butter instead. When I politely asked the loud server to lower her voice, she apologized but made no effort to actually do so — in fact, she laughed even louder. I finished my breakfast as quickly as I could just to leave. The food was good, but the unprofessional behavior and noisy environment completely ruined what could have been a pleasant meal.

Cute dinner with friendly staff, good food and very reasonable prices in today’s economy.

If I could give the service six stars, I would! Super efficient so friendly. Great standard diner food with lots of vegetarian options. We had breakfast sandwiches, one with bacon and one with tempeh - both were excellent. Ask for the hash browns extra crispy!

- Thursday at 10:00am / 15 people in the restaurant - $40 tab Staff - The staff were very efficient and great company. The woman(Tracey) who waited on me spoke to me like family and she did her best to make sure she was helpful. The owner takes care of his business. Drinks - Cafe coffee with the honey 👌🏾 Food - I ordered a meat lover omelette with hash browns and wheat bread with a side of biscuits and gravy and a side of corn beef hash. You get the food you came for and it comes out like your mom is cooking it has home. The portions were enough for me to take a full bowl to go. The fellas on the grill 👍🏽 Atmosphere - The cafe you came for is what you get. The place feels good to sit and have a good breakfast with friends family or just by yourself.

This place just closed yesterday. I cant really say much about the restaurant since I don't eat here. But I've been going at night to grab a bubble tea and the 3 times ive been there in the last 2 weeks I have noticed infestation of mice with numerous of mices running around. DISGUSTING. Today I was sitting down for less than 5 minutes and a mice went right infront of my face 1 foot away. Hopefully this place does not open again without a complete Pest control clean up and a health inspection !

We had a great time at Red Stripe! The food was great I got the braised short ribs which were delicious. The only reason that I’m giving it a 4/5 food wise instead of the 5/5 is because I didn’t really care for the bacon it was a little salty for my taste but the mashed potatoes, carrots and short ribs were all great. The other dishes featured are what my cousins ordered which were the filet mignon and I think the shrimp poke bowl. They both enjoyed their dishes as well. Our server was friendly and attentive even as the dinner rush started to come in. The atmosphere and ambience are very old American bistro with a modern flare. I would definitely recommend this place it’s a great stop!

I'm surprised to see this place has only 4.4 stars because the experience I had was nothing less than 5. It was my birthday and I wanted searched through Providence looking for scallops. I found Red Stripe and decided to reserve here and I'm glad I did. The restaurant itself is beautiful and in a lovely area of Providence. There's a small lot in the back and plenty of street parking. The staff immediately noted my birthday and did a great job making me feel special. I wish I had grabbed my waitress' name because she was excellent. We started with the crispy artichokes which were delicious. I had the fisherman's platter and there was an ample amount of food. The shrimp were colossal and easily my favorite of the three seafood options. My significant other had the schnitzel and has been talking about how good it was ever since. We then ended the night with a skillet cookie- complete with a candle! While I may not love the number I turned, Red Stripe helped me celebrate it in style. I highly recommend them!

We visited Red Stripe during Restaurant Week and had a fantastic experience! We started with the buffalo cauliflower, which was absolutely delicious—crispy, flavorful, and a great way to kick off the meal. For my entrée, I had the beef stroganoff made with short ribs, and it was outstanding. The short ribs were incredibly tender, easily the best I’ve had to date. We finished with a tiramisu, which was the perfect sweet ending—light, creamy, and full of flavor. Beyond the food, the service was excellent, making for an all-around great dining experience. We’ll definitely be back!

I’m forever indebted to Red Stripe. When I was broke and in love, I wanted to propose to my wife and have dinner. Red Stripe made a special accommodation to have both of our families and friends sit all together in a special room. Now every anniversary we make it a point to celebrate there! The food and atmosphere is amazing and brunch is always great! Thank you for fulfilling a special moment in our lives and providing exceptional food and service!

The short rib grilled cheese and tomato soup was delicious!! Fish and chips was huge. Also got the crab crusted cod.

If I could give the food and hospitality more than 5 stars I would. The baked stuffed cod was more than amazing! Bobby’s customer service was outstanding the way he went above and beyond to make sure my order was perfect! The staff is very attentive and friendly, made me feel very welcomed. I’ll definitely be a returning customer and recommending Red Stripe to family/friends.

Best Reuben, Worst Cobb Salad I had seriously the saddest Cobb salad I have ever had in my life. It had two cherry tomatoes cut in half a spoonful of blue cheese and a couple slices of avocado all mixed up rather than on top. I think that was to hide how little of the Fixins it actually had. It was loaded with chicken on top, way too much. It did have one boiled egg cut in half. Oh and I almost forgot there was a spoonful of bacon that equated to one strip of bacon. It was absolutely pathetic. My husband got the Reuben. It was by far the best Ruben we've ever had. It did not have too much meat, the balance of the cheese and sauerkraut was excellent, and the bread was very good. The fruits on the side were excellent, salted just right, thinly sliced and cooked perfection.

Food: I ordered the $30 shrimp scampi and it was incredibly bland. As far as I can tell it was cooked in salt-less water and then given no additional flavor before being scooped onto my plate in a bathe of warm water. The consistency was good so I took it home and added garlic salt, thyme, and some olive oil and popped it in the microwave and it is now very tasty. The fries were decent and the desserts were delicious, but multiple people in our party found the main dishes subpar. Service: Our waiter was very friendly. Didn't hover (maybe could have hovered a little more honestly but I appreciated that he wasn't checking in on us every .2 seconds) Atmosphere: The atmosphere was really nice! They had great seating for larger parties, the place had a cool vibe, and I loved the window booths.

Note* Not rated for food or drink....mainly lack of service. We were staying at the hotel (which is beautiful and clean!) We were told the restaurant was open until 11. Wanted to grab a quick drink when we got back before going up so stopped in at 10:15. There was about 7 people at the bar and 3 bar tables with customers....no one seated in the restaurant. We did not walk in to an empty bar. When we sat down, we were not acknowledged by either of the two bartenders. Instead, one walked by us 3 times, as the other one stood to the side. At one point, the one standing looked at his watch and said to the other bartender "good thing there's only 15 minutes until last call" and glanced our way. So this means we still had 15 minutes to order. We would have been gone before "closing". At this point it was our choice to get up and leave, but if making two drinks is such a hassle for you to do in 15 minutes, then you probably shouldn't be working as a bartender. I've worked in that business. I understand being tired (working at bars open until 2am) or having a bad day, but for both of them to ignore us was unprofessional and rude. I'm big with a simple "Hi, I will be right with you", if you are busy, but although they had customers, they were not busy serving them. They were concerned about getting out of there and cleaning. Avoid simply for that reason. There are so many other places we visited while there, all with amazing service and attentive to customers.

The place? So cute! The service? Only if you like sassy retort. The food? As white as it gets. I was hoping for an amazing restaurant for where I could have a fantastic dinner with my mom before a show at the Vets. We got a generic hotel restaurant. Pretty in Pink was the best part of the night. That drink? So dang good. The rest? Eh. Lacking. The host was rude and condescending. The waitress while pleasant was MIA. The food took forever an was obviously sitting under a heat lamp. But somehow the fries were underdone. The crabcakes while had great consistency, did not have the flavor to keep it a good dish. The Caesar salad might as well have come from a shake bag. As said before the fries weren't fried enough. My mom said the burger was delish, so I'll give Public that. All in all, won't come again. My mom said she will but it might be for the atmosphere and age group of attendants.

Several booths remained empty till we finished our dinner, but the front manager told us they were fully booked due to “tons of reservations (which even didn’t look that way)” so we were not able to sit at the booth.

Waitress needs more help but works very hard and cares.. Not the largest portion of chowda but extremely delicious.. Spinach salad had a wonderful balance of flavors..

Great Gatsby New Year's Eve. We didn't receive champagne for the toast nor did we have any wait staff approach with hor d'oeuvres seemed to only be going to the private parties, both were included in the ticket price. Very understaffed at the bar. Enjoyed the DJ. Would have been appropriate to include some 20's music in the mix.

We went in on a Friday at 2pm, and it was a little dead, which was kinda nice. Received prompt service, our drinks were made well, and the pizza we ordered, the Alex "Numero Uno" was awesome. We had 3 of the craft cocktails (I quite enjoyed the Ghosted) and the aforementioned pizza. Total bill for it all came out to $65. The place looks great too.

New to the neighborhood and looking for my own coffee spot. This place is cute and kept popping up when I typed in vegan cafe. They had 1 vegan pastry option. I grabbed it. But unfortunately there’s plastic baked inside the middle. They do have oat and almond milk available. Their caramel and vanilla are dairy free. The sandwich options were very slim pickings despite being there around 11. Coffee is the best part here. It’s cute inside. Feels like the staff could clean up the dining area more throughout the day.

I've been coming here for years every now and then. The inside is totally charming and approachable - exactly the type of place in which I like to have a pastry or sandwich. Was just here on Friday and had an egg sandwich on an everything bagel along with a pastry; way above average on both counts - lots of flavor. I particularly like that they bake all of their own stuff (you can see the baking room in back), get creative and try new things, and have a progressive, inclusive value system.

Plus the music was good there. The description prominently features that this restaurant is eco-friendly, however, other than the organic food choices and the ability to recycle, the food is served on single use parchment paper and my dine-in drinks were served in plastic cups. The food is definitely fresh and delicious and the pricing— being in the nice area that it is— is quite good; me and the person I was with were able to get both of our meals with a fresh pressed drink for about $15.

Set up here for a few hours of remote work and enjoyed a hot brown butter latte (incredible) and their veggie breakfast sandwich (also incredible). Great vibes all around!

The melon matcha tonic was delicious, and they hand-whisked their matcha which I never get to see at busy cafés! My only complaint was that the flat white wasn’t great. Also, the music was not loud at all so really good for a chill study spot that isn’t overwhelming!

Very delicious looking snacks and drinks. The quality and taste are not consistent across the snakes. A bit worried hygiene as the drink making tools, filters are cleaned with the same cloth for the counters and everything else but the milk nozzle which is used with another cloth.

I've never actually had undrinkable cafe coffee before. This was my first. PH was so off, it literally burned my throat, topping off a very bland taste.

We went for a quick breakfast sandwich. Ham egg and cheese on a sub roll. It was slice ham, the bread was so soft with a nice crunch from the kiss of the grill. I added grilled onions it was delicious. The atmosphere was laid back old school with classic meals. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu.

Definition of classic old school diner. Located in a residential area, safe, quiet, steps from Brown and a hike from RISD. Don't judge by the exterior facade. Come inside to this mom-n-pop greasy spoon lost in time that you'd expect to find in Brooklyn or South Philly. Interior is a museum of vintage b/w photographs, eclectic art, old license plates (should've brought my old plate from Seattle) and even a traditional Korean newlyweds doll set preserved in a glass case at the top center of the menu wall. Inside dining area is medium size but will fill up to capacity by 9:30 on a warm New England end of summer Sunday morning. Several tables outside. Family owned establishment frequented by locals, college coeds & tourists alike. Loius's was featured on Guy Fieri's Triple D on the Food Network. Food is made from scratch, handmade, good ole home cooking taste. Bagel & hand cut lox, buttery strawberry pancakes, omelette made to order were all delicious. Portions were generous and prices were not affected by Bidenflation. Where can you get a delicious omelette, potatoes & toast for $11? Service was courteous, accurate and prompt even during the rush. This place is a dying breed. Especially young people today shouldn't miss out on a classic taste of 🇺🇸. Support your local small businesses & restaurants 👍 😋

Wanted to like this place as it’s a short walk from the apartment and it looks authentic. As a rule, I love diners and greasy spoons, but this place is not good. The scrambled eggs were flat, overcooked and greasy. The bacon was paper thin, undercooked and greasy. The “home fries” were inedibly undercooked. Even the toast was inedible: flaccid, slightly warmed bread with a dunk of butter. The food was served by a silent young woman who dropped the plate on the counter in front of me with a thud. Literally no one here looked like they wanted to be there, and I was happy to leave my half-eaten plate and go.

This place had a really hipster/nostalgic and unique vibe! It's a local diner that has photographs, drawings, posters, and interesting things plastered across the walls. It has your classic diner set up with bar stool and open view of the kitchen. There are also many table. Our server was friendly and really helpful especially considering how many tables she had to take care of. The coffee was strong and they had a basic menu with diner staples. The bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich was just wanted I needed to start my day off. I liked the old school vibe of writing the order on a price of paper and checking out at the host stand after the meal. Overall, great little find!

Totally stumbled on this classic diner gem! I was staying near Brown University and searched "breakfast dinner near me" and five blocks away was Louis Family Restaurant. I walked instead of driving to soak in the rich history of the older buildings. I had two eggs over easy, bacon and home fries and coffee for $11. Solid classic breakfast served with a smile from a young waitress. I'm from California and a full breakfast for under $12 is very rare. I has happy to tip $5. Heck I came back the next day and had a veggi scramble. Which was awesome, ask for easy onion. BUT the best part about this breakfast was the homemade Blueberry Muffin! It was sooooo good! Don't sleep on the homemade muffins, 10 different choices. The atmosphere and vibe is good here. Mix of of people from young to old. Chat up the hostess/cashier she full of local knowledge and humor. Bonus points for being a Guy Fieri, DDD (Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives) stop. He had the BBQ chicken ravioli.

Alright, I love diners almost as much as I love great food and this place is a solid gem! I love everything about this place and I can't wait to go back and try more of the food. Be warned: the portions are HUGE! The food portions are definitely sized for blue-collar workers who are out busting their hump on the daily, so if you're a desk jockey (like myself) you may want to just share a meal with your company (nice thing is a lot of their dishes come in small or large sizes, so they've got you coveted regardless). Again: love this place and can't wait to go back!

On our way to Newport, we stopped at this amazing place for breakfast. I would like to start with the "drunk johnny" it was legendary. I am an omlette person, but this one stands out of all by far my top favorite one. I loved the coffee it was perfectly brewed and went well with the omlette and potato. The highlight of this place is that even the bread they serve here are homemade, and it is really good. It's worth it and must try if you are in and around the providence. Stop by, and you will never regret it.

What a great place! It's really nice to be able to get high quality loose-leaf tea, and they have a great variety. If drinking/eating in, the environment is great -- really relaxing and enjoyable!

The seasonal lavender lemonade is so good! It’s just the perfect amount of sweet. I got another iced tea, I forgot the name and it was pleasant as well. There’s a cool room in the back too! They are vegan friendly as well. The only reason I only put 4 stars is because the staff aren’t very friendly and service is mediocre. Other than that though, great place!

Very comfy & welcoming tea spot that serves a large variety of quality tea as well as sandwiches, crepes, and pastries. Open area and space with plenty of seating options. They even have their own coloring activity booklet for children! The tea was excellent, stored in air tight containers to maintain freshness, and the servers were really knowledgeable. They were able to match a perfect tea to my palette

Great crepes and good hot coffee. Nice spot with friends and not too busy. Nice outside seating and friendly staff

Been here a couple times now. Excellent tea, coffee and food. Love the crepes. Nice atmosphere and friendly service.

Cute place, coffee and crepes were good. They seem to have a lot of loose tea leafs as well, though I haven't had any yet.

Amazing tea selection and crepe selection. The vibe is relaxed, great place for meeting a friend or reading alone. Love the little timers that come with the tea to control your tea strength.

Nice friendly service. Had reservations and were seated quickly. The appetizer platter was awesome and the Peta bread served with it was nice and warm. The Gyro meat on the Greek salad had lots of flavors. The beef in the kabab could have used a little more seasoning. Overall a great experience. Will go again.

Invited for a double date with friends and was happy to try a place I've yet to visit! Had heard good things about Andreas, and yet tonight, most of our meal fell short. The service was not great either as our waiter was bringing over the check while one of our party was still eating and ended up redoing them as we wanted to order desert and I ordered an expresso, which sadly was bland in flavor. My and my wifes meals were both over driven by the cheese casing, as the content inside was not very well seasoned as described. The end result was the only delite was the hostess! Maybe we will try it again one day

Love Andrea's ❤️ been coming here for years. Their Gyros are the best around. Get it with the Greek salad so delicious, or their French fries are so crispy and tasty. The calamari is always fresh and delicious 😋

Eyes were too big for my Stomach but the meat was all perfectly cooked. Meatballs and lamb were worth the money little pricey on the kabob end but the rest of the food made up for it. Crisp drinks and wonderful area seating outside. Nice waitress all a pleasant experience 5/5

Food is good and portions healthy. Had the mezzo platter, roasted 1/2 chicken and lamb shank and chicken soup.Food came out quick. Service is good even though they were very busy, so points for that. The mezzo platter is good to share, the chicken soup is good and lemony, the lamb shank was the winner fork tender and nicely seasoned and mash potatoes were super buttery and had lots pf butter LOL. The roasted chicken was good little dry on the breast which is expected but good portion. Decent place for quick bite…!!!

Haven’t come here since I was a teenager. It’s still just as good. I love the Avgolemono soup (lemon chicken orzo) Food was ready quickly They still take tables really close to closing time on a weekday. It’s fancy-ish but there is a more casual back seating area and they still have sports on TV. The waiters seemed to have had a long day but they still checked in on me as they got their stuff together.

Great night out lovely little spot around college Hill. If you like Greek you have to stop in here. Got the lemon brick chicken and have to try the moussaka. Right on the corner you cant miss it! Great staff and service definitely have to go again

I am new in town and decided to go to Seven Stars Bakery for a coffee break. The interior is so beautiful! They have this little outside space to sit and sip. It was beautified with gorgeous plants. The employees were super nice! They recommended that I try lavender cappuccino, and It was AMAZING. The coffee was warm, not hot, that I usually prefer, and they didn't have WiFi, which was pretty odd. Overall, I loved the vibe of that place!

Got a bacon, egg, and cheese and a pumpkin spice iced latte here. Coffee was made perfectly and breakfast sandwich was much needed. We also got a chocolate crossaint that was delicious. So fresh, could definitely tell it was made that morning. Great food, fast service, convenient area, really cute/high-end look inside. Very cute cafe for working or catching up with friends.

Was passing through town and stopped by for a bite. What a pleasant surprise! The food was absolutely delicious and the ambience and service was also great. There were many great pastry and sandwich options — it was hard to choose! Went with a cappuccino, egg and broccoli sandwich, and cheddar scone. Will definitely return next time I’m in town.

We were recommended this bakery by a friend after visiting the Children's Museum. What a gem. We are so happy that we came upon it. We ordered coffee and some baked goods. We sat in the magical garden outside and the birds kept us company. Our son ordered the wrong cookie and the employee gave us a new one on the house. What exceptional customer service! We are so grateful and will definitely return!

I was driving back from Boston to NYC and stopped by this nice bakery. Very good selection and high quality baking there. Their ice coffee is great and very smooth with distinctive coffee taste. I tried the chocolate croissant and the cream cheese spread with on the walnut raisin toast, delicious.

Love this place. Discount if you bring your own cup. Customer point system. Really like the baked goods and the ham and cheese quiche. Black tea is good. Their version of Oreos are fun. Free loaf of bread on your birthday.

Stopped by to pick up pastries for some friends. The kouignn-amann were delicious, as were the ham and chees croissant and the cheddar scone. Can't really comment on the service since I only picked up an online order

I visited this cafe three days in a row during my trip to Providence, RI, with my husband. We enjoyed a variety of pastries and savory dishes. The avocado toast was unique — they blend the avocado into a smooth purée, which isn't my personal preference (I prefer a chunkier texture). Nevertheless, everything else we tried was excellent. The pastries were particularly memorable, and I especially loved the rosemary cookie — a must-try!  We also enjoyed their cappuccinos and matcha lattes. The staff was friendly and welcoming, creating a positive atmosphere. We visited around 11 AM several times, which was their busy period. There was a fairly long line, but it was worth the wait. The space itself is lovely — plenty of seating and a bright, inviting environment. Highly recommended — we’ll definitely return next time we're in Providence!

This place was a gem and easily the best place I dined during my visit to RI. The staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and fast. The windows for the whole place opened to the outside to let in the beautiful fall weather. Lastly the food was delish! We also shared a table with another couple and this led to lovely conversation!

Great experience at Ellie’s a nice cozy cafe in the downtown Providence area. The staff was very friendly and helpful during our visit. The coffee was good and had a tasty breakfast sandwich and delicious pastry. The rest of the menu and pastries also looked great. The cafe was clean, bright, well decorated, and had plenty of seating. Would definitely recommend to a friend or return in my next trip to Providence.

Food was excellent! Service is always exceptional; everyone is so friendly and hospitable. Love the colors and vibes, so pretty and summery. Not too many lunch options, but the ones I’ve had are delicious. Portions are a bit on the small side, especially being more expensive. Overall, wonderful experience!

One of my new favorite places in Providence! We went here on a recent Saturday around 5pm, ordered delicious espresso martinis, sat outside on the patio with the windows of the restaurant open, and listened to an awesome jazz trio playing live music inside the restaurant. There were people there having food, having drinks just listening to the music, sitting alone reading or working on their computer, talking at their table- it was a wonderful cafe/bar vibe where you could feel comfortable doing any of those things, just enjoying the afternoon and being around others. We appreciated that they could make our espresso martinis without Baileys. Their soup of the day happened to be vegan/plant-based but none of their pastries were vegan/plant-based 😥- we would have gotten a pastry if they were.

Third times a charm when rounding the building trying to find parking on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Lucky the corner window was open and we had a cozy spot to enjoy soup, scone and cookie with delicious beverages. The only complaint from my 17 year old was the oatmeal chocolate chip cookie was too heavy on the chocolate and not a good balance of oatmeal. Thanks for the lovely respite for a few Southern Californians who didn’t find any charming, delicious goody places in Warwick. Thanks.

Posting later than I would have liked. We were lucky to eat here in July, we had to queue given the popularity of the place. Service was quick and the food was great.

Food is good, but I was overcharged today. Should cost $2 to get a side of fries with the purchase of a burger. The guy charged me $7.25 for a plate of fries. Photo of plate attached. Very tasty fries, and the burger was good, too. Would give a better rating aside from the poor service at the register. P.S. a guy at the table next to me was charged $29 for two pancakes and a bowl of chili. Maybe the guy working the register today needs training or the prices are kind of high here.

I really wanted this place to be better than it was. My son had a chocolate milk, a side of bacon and and full stack of chocolate chip pancakes, I had an orange juice and a bacon and cheese omelette and it was 74 dollars before tip. It wasn’t 74 dollars good and that’s the problem for me. When you walk in, you walk up to order, then find your seat. If our meal total was like 40 then this would have been 5 stars for the value. I will say the orange juice was amazing clearly hand squeezed.

This is a classic spot on Thayer St. I love that Meeting St has stuck around through all of the iterations of this area. The service is friendly and efficient. The food is solid but the coffee leaves a bit to the imagination. I enjoyed my veggie omelet with cheese and potatoes. Overall, a solid option for a casual breakfast.

Food was good, coffee good. You order at the counter and they bring you the food. Friendly and quick service.A bit pricey at $15.34 with tax compared to other places with same food. Place was comfortable, however I noticed many stained ceiling tiles.

Very tasty and well made food. It didn't take long to receive our meals. Bagels seemed about a day old though. Clean but average interior. Overall, good stuff.

All day breakfast plus a plentiful lunch selection leave room for a fickle appetite, and do not disappoint in either quality or quantity. Service is great, good attitudes, but can be rather slow in terms of turnaround. Worth the wait. For more details, check out my full review here: bit.ly/meetingstreet-review

Ordered the Thanksgiving sandwich, and something wasn’t right. Something taste like the cold from the refrigerator and really bad. I took it apart so I can see what was in the sandwich that had that taste and it was the stuffing, omg the taste and smell of it was so putrid I called and they tell me that they tasted it and that, that’s how they do stuffing there and I said that’s sad. They did however refund me my money fairly fast so grateful for that.

Spinach and Cheese Breakfast burrito last month: well made and cut in half, fairly tasty and then realised there was so much cheese , the grease was leaking out everywhere. Couldn't finish the last couple of bites. Perhaps less chedder(fattier cheese) and more feta? It was a bummer. Today tried the Pesto Panini and it was OK. Pesto was tasty and tomatoes fresh, chicken and and bread were....eh. Really have high hopes for this cafe, as there's not much open on weekends, and not only do we as RISD employees look for good spots to grap lunch, we also LOVE recommending places, especially Hazel. Staff has been great on my two visits, and food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Cannot comment on coffee or beverages. Chairs, tables and benches are inviting. However, the all black walls and too-loud music make it less attractive to stay and enjoy. Will give it another try for food next month and see how it goes.

Stopped in for a latte, was excellent. The staff also has wonderful energy.

Opened 2 days ago, amazing service and great food. Loved the avocado toast! Kids loved their quesadilla and fruit. Very family friendly, highly recommend.

Great coffee, great food, very friendly staff. Nothing more you could ask for.

We tried the new location today. Maybe they are still getting their bearings but the latte was not drinkable. They have high end equipment and the place is cute but the coffee was very very bitter. I feel bad writing a bad review for a new place but it’s in the hopes that they’ll better train their baristas or work out the kinks.

This is just simply a great place to get a great cup of coffee. The bariste prepared us a double and a triple chai latte that were the best this side of New Orleans!

Went there for lunch, Great food, great coffee, nice environment that’s clean, quiet, and good for meeting up or some afternoon coffee to sit and relax. Loved the avocado toast.

Small neighborhood diner serving breakfast and lunch with good food and good prices. Menu is typical with all the traditional choices. 12 tables and counter dining available. They still have plastic screens up from covid days so the dining area looks choppy. Busy with locals when I was there. Several customers were on a first name basis with the waitress. Always a good sign, Eggs, home fries and pancakes were all good. If you are a diner enthusiast this place should be on your list. Note early closing on the weekends.

An ancient diner on the side of a lonely road. Swivel stools at the counter, and a few booths. Offering breakfast perfection! Welcoming, friendly staff. Comfortable seating. Quick service, and the best tasting eggs and bacon I have had in a while. Coffee was hot and fresh and kept coming. Lots of regulars, and lots of menu choices. Ample parking area on the side. Great choice! We saw a very dusty Uma Thurman come in and sit at the counter and ask for a glass of water…

5 stars are not enough for this place! I had the stuffed French toast and it was easily some of the best I’ve ever had. Very reasonable prices and huge portions. Staff are all friendly and the service was quick. The restaurant was full and we maybe waited 10 minutes for a table, which was well worth it. They have an expansive menu to please even the pickiest eater’s taste. We ran into a local and he said this is the best breakfast spot in the city. So thankful we ventured off the beaten path to find this gem!

Really great local spot with an extensive menu, great service, and really reasonable pricing. Highly recommend their crispy chicken sandwich from the specials menu.

We stopped here for breakfast on our way home from a date night in the city. The menu was great and then the page of specials, it was so hard to choose what to get. I decided on funfetti pancakes and my husband got a banana split waffle. It was delicious!! Staff was very friendly and attentive. Great start to our morning!

First time with my grandmother and it was absolutely delightful. We got the mashed potatoes the scrambled eggs, the toast then we got grilled cheese, fries, and water in medium hot coffee.

Found this place through Google Reviews and they did not disappoint. Food was delicious, everyone working was pleasant and fun, and lived up to the diner atmosphere.

This clean, bright cafe was close to the hotel where I stayed for work, so I gave it a try. I grabbed a coffee, overnight oats and macaroons. I liked the quality and service enough to go back a second time to try their coconut espresso martini. It was just what I needed after a long day. I recommend the Cookie Monster macaroon if they have it in the case (blue with chocolate chip filling).

Wow!!! The egg sandwich h was phenomenal! A generous amount of avocado, the egg was made a little runny (the way I like it), the bread was unlike any English muffin or biscuit I’ve had. It was fantastic! Also, the Aussie treats like Lamington and chausson pastry with spinach and cheese were phenomenal. The coconut water was great too but it took several people trying to get it open.

It is a welcoming coffee shop. It has several breakfast and sweet items that are delicious. The avocado toast has an amazing presentation as well as the taste.

This is a must visit for brunch place, when in Providence. Close to the train station, you can just walk straight up there and start your day with an amazing meal. The variety of options you get is amazing. Savoury, sweet, vegetarian. Name it and they have it. Bonus points for having this amazing reusable cups for the beverages. We liked it so much that we ordered two coffees so we can get two of them and we haven’t stopped using them in our daily life since then.

Matcha latte and sweet toast were absolutely delicious! Really enjoyed the music. Modern vibes overall.

Cute cafe right in downtown Providence. Service was beyond excellent. Wonderful young people here. Got breakfast which was delicious and the ambiance is very bright as well as welcoming.

Excellent intimate cafe; 2 min walk from Providence Amtrak station; 10 min walk from Brown/RISD; excellent avocado toast, breakfast sandwiches, espresso beverages; nice clean atmosphere; good place to meet up with a friend, have a small meeting with a colleague, etc. Support your local cafes & small businesses 👍

I went here to give it a try because I seen it on social media a post saying come and sit outside enjoy the weather and have some mimosas no one was outside I was like great I asked was told NO I CAN NOT SIT OUTSIDE it was just me and my husband I wanted to be outside it was quite and not to many people then the host took us to THE BACK ALL THE CONTRARY OF OUTSIDE THERE WAS A LOT OF PEOPLE BACK THERE AND SUPER LOUD like why seat us all the way in the back that’s weird there was boot available. I had the egg Benedict and i ordered and it was done less then 5 minutes idk but that was weird it was not great at all and also ask for PINK MIMOSA which is also on the website the waiter said I don’t know what’s that..mind you I seen pictures on their Instagram and showed them to her and also reviews here with pictures like a month old and she said that’s our old menu…two different kind of mimosas they both tasted the same so disappointing no orange 🍊 no presentation horrible …and my husband said his home fries tasted like onions 😩is like the grill is used for everything and not cleaned at all 🤮I WILL NEVER GO HERE AGAIN. If I could I will give 0 starts to this place is overrated for real. PHOTOS IS MINES AND THE OTHER ONE IS ANOTHER PERSON REVIEW FROM A MONTH AGO WITH THE SAME MIMOSA I WANTED AND THEY TOLD ME THATS FROM THE OLD MENU. I mean look and compare idk i feel like they treat who they want good or pick and choose who deserves better service.

I've been coming to West Side Diner for years, and I have to say—Danielle is hands down the best bartender they've ever had. Her drinks are consistently spot-on, and she has an amazing knack for remembering what everyone likes. She's incredibly attentive, friendly, and always makes you feel welcome. Danielle truly elevates the whole experience at the diner. If you're stopping by, make sure to grab a seat at the bar when she's working—you won’t be disappointed!

Enjoyed breakfast thoroughly! Old-time diner atmosphere makes for a good experience. Servers and employees were all pleasant to deal with and welcoming. Our server, Kayla, was attentive even though it was starting to get busy. Eggs Benedict for my girlfriend and stuffed French toast for me. Added a side of corned beef hash (definitely made on site) and baked beans as well. A great find for a tasty Sunday morning breakfast before heading out theifting!

Great little place for breakfast or lunch. This was my second time visiting. The grilled chicken sandwich was delicious, as well as their omelets. I also ordered a fall drink today, a caramel apple martini, which was delicious. Whether you eat inside or outside, you'll enjoy the space. The wait staff are all kind and helpful as well.

My friends and I came in on Nov 1st around 11am. It was a Saturday post-Halloween so we were understanding that it might be a lil crazy. My boyfriend ordered a breakfast burrito that looked incredible and my best friend ordered the current omelette special. I ordered a turkey wrap that was missing some sauce so it tasted a bit dry. Our server was quite dismissive towards us, just throwing the check on the table. We got the vibe that it was short-staffed perhaps.

My wife and I have lived on the west side of Providence for years, and we’ve driven past this diner countless times saying, “We really should go.” We finally did—twice—and I’m glad we did. Both visits were excellent. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was welcoming, and of course, the classic endless diner coffee sealed the deal. We were pleasantly surprised to see alcohol on the menu, though we didn’t try it this time. We’re big diner fans, and this one easily ranks among our favorites. On my first visit, I ordered the Texas toast French toast, which was perfectly done. On the second, I tried the crab Benedict—outstanding both times. My wife had the crab Benedict on our first visit and the huevos rancheros with a side of corned beef hash on the second, all of which she loved. The diner offers great value as well—delicious meals at an affordable price. We’ll definitely be back and are happy to have such a reliable spot nearby.

Disappointing service. Waited for over 15 minutes for a glass of apple juice, meanwhile the waitress just hung out and walked around on her phone. Used to really enjoy coming here but it’s overcrowded and it doesn’t seem like they care about good service. Complete lack of communication or care for paying customers. Walked out this morning because all I was served was coffee and had been left waiting 15+ minutes for a glass of apple juice

We stopped at the Vig during the Rhode Island Food Fights Big Burger Blowout, and were pleasantly surprised with the food and service. Normally hotel bars have mid-tier food and the staff are just trying to churn customers to get more drinks served, but the folks at the Vig were some of the most attentive and kind people we have had the pleasure of meeting! The burger was delicious, a nacho-inspired mish-mash, with spectacular beer-cheese instead of the canned stuff that other restaurants pass-off as queso. We had the apple blossom dessert and it was a perfect ending to the night.

My only knock on this place is looks like they are worried about overhead cost as there isn't enough staff. There was only one bartender and one cook who at times had to make the long to bring out the food. No complaints on the bartender or the buger and fries as they were great. It's a college town quit being cheap and hire people so your restaurant can be full.

Our bartender, Nico, was excellent. It was only his 3rd day. He clearly tries to make it a nice experience. Went in for RI Food Fights best burger event. Espresso martini was fantastic.

Came here for a graduation event and absolutely loved the food! The menu is pretty large so there was something for everyone. I had the fried chicken burger which was super tasty as well as some wings and calamari for the appetizers. The place wasn’t packed when we came but during game nights, you can expect a lot of folks to be here. Definitely stop by for a drink at least.

Amazing service! Stopped by for late lunch on a Sunday (12:30). Drinks were delicious - just peachy and boozy lemonade cocktails. Beautiful leather chairs with a second floor view of the library and church

After a long day exploring Providence, we stopped by The Vig for a nightcap. Our bartender, Frank, was fantastic—friendly, personable, and gave us a great recommendation for the next day: Federal Hill.

Never heard of this place until the other week and it sounded great so my girlfriend and I gave it a shot. Loved it! I had the Vig Double cheeseburger and it was killer. So delicious. The French fries were great too. She had the kale black bean burger and she enjoyed it. Would definitely go back!

10/2024 - More to come first time here. BEST breakfast burrito of 2024!!

We've been there twice now, the first was a sit down visit we kinda just happened across the place. Had a great time. Then the second time we got the brown bag lunch. If you're close by at lunch can't go wrong with going here.

I had a grilled eggplant panini and it was great. I loved it. It comes with a salad or fries. The salad is small, but tasty. The staffs are so nice and happy, and the environment of the place is amazing for lunch! I'll go back there definitely.

Great diner style atmosphere, great breakfast burrito! Nice and welcoming to all.

Staff and food are fantastic! Our office uses them for catering our team lunches and its always such a big hit.

Rue Bis is my go to for lunch catering. Everyone is fabulous and so friendly when they come to deliver (even when I have 75 sandwiches and salads)! My students always ask where I get the sandwiches from and love how close they are. Highly recommend!!!

This is not a polite suggestion. I demand that you order the breakfast burrito. It's as delicious as it is attractive. Staff is fantastic

We stopped in on a Wednesday night and were seated immediately for dinner. There were just a few other tables in there and plenty of seating. They had decorated nicely for the season. We started with the cauliflower curry appetizer and it was DELICIOUS. We asked for another spoon so that we could eat up all of the great sauce. We had glasses of an orange wine from Slovenia that was wonderfully drinkable. We ordered the pink pasta, for a gluten free diner. She said it was delicious, flavorful, and she couldn’t finish the whole portion it was so filling. We also had the maple glazed salmon over a butternut apple mash with Brussels sprouts. What a delightful dish! The portion was huge! A large, perfectly cooked and seasoned piece of fish over a bowl filled with the mash. The only suggestion I have is to season the mash; it could have used some salt and they did not have any salt or pepper on any tables in the restaurant. Overall a nice meal!

Service was very friendly, humorous, quick, and efficient, and there is both indoor and outdoor seating and there is a good variety of choices on the menu, including chicken sandwiches, lobster roll, calamari and a host of other goodies. The portions are really generous, so either come with a big appetite or plan to come away with your next meal in a box. This place is pretty expensive as it was $152 with tip for the three of us (no alcohol, just an iced tea, Diet Coke and iced latte ) so that is a lot of money for advanced comfort food.

We are new to town and this place offered a great experience, from start to finish! Our server Christine was a gem. She provided great recommendations about food/drink options and also great places to visit in the area. The food was piping hot, creative, and delicious! The GM Micheal made it a point to table touch and check in to get our feedback, which is truly a rarity these days. The effort did not go unnoticed and we will definitely be back. Check this place out, you won’t be disappointed!

We flew to Providence to celebrate my birthday weekend and stumbled upon this charming place. The waitstaff was amazing and the food was yummy. If weather permits definitely eat outside. We had a blast people watching and munching. The burger and truffle fries are a must!! We will definitely visit again.

Very nice place with outdoor seating. There’s free street parking and we didn’t have an issue to find a spot. Our server was friendly and attentive. The chicken and waffles along with the risotto, poke bowl, and scallops were a hit for our party. The Mac and cheese and the shrimp scampi were lacking flavor. Also the portion sizes were not very big, if you plan on sharing with someone.

Wow! The coconut curry appetizer was so flavorful, warm, and delicious. The pink vodka pasta (gluten free version available) was so well prepared--al dented with adequate sauce, tiny crispy pieces of prosciutto and paremesean. Recommend highly!

Had such a lovely experience this past Saturday, my partner and I stopped in for brunch without any reservations and they were incredibly accommodating, we were sat with Markus outside who was so attentive and check on us plenty. It was a pretty crazy Saturday as it was pride festival in pvd so the kitchen was a bit behind but was totally okay and we were happy to wait and Markus made the wait very easy and even offered up some mocktails while we waited and chatted us up a bit. My go to now for brunch! I ordered the lobster Bennie and I highly recommend so delicious and flavorful and they weren’t shy with the chunks of lobster 😊

The food was good! Pretty salty but it may have been just a one off thing. Will definitely return to try again. The brunch sangria was amazing, horchata latte was delicious, and the prix fixe was a great deal to do with a group to taste many items they offer. The ambiance was my favorite part of the experience!

Considering we were walk-ins at the start of brunch hour, the 3 of us got sited quickly. It’s very very small…prospective, if 20 are dinning, the place’s packed! I say make reservations for sure. Food was good but over priced. $24 for an egg cheese w/avocado, tomato on brioche w/a side of salad or home fries. The 3 of us got sandwiches and 1 drink each and 1 app. With tip, almost $140. Most expensive brunch I’ve ever had. Good atmosphere and lovely waitress too.

Food was good and well seasoned. Portions are smaller for the price point. The drinks were good. Dulce de Leche french toast was too sweet with too many dressings. Mofongo with pernil was good. Empanadas were great and had a good amount of filling in the flaky crust. The variety of hot sauces were delicious. Not accommodating for larger groups, and children or babies. The place is very small for a brunch spot. They limit you for a 1 hour brunch. Before sitting down we were told our table needed to be given up in 45 minutes since our reservation was for 11 and we were all seated at 11:15. This made brunch feel like a rushed experience for everyone. Service was not that great. They kept missing things, didn't provide enough plates, and forgot to give us a cardamom knot. They provided the cardamom knot to go and when having it at home, it was hard and a bit burnt. We made this reservation for my friend who came from out of town for her birthday. The birthday notation in the reservation was not at all acknowledged. There are too many things in fine print for this restaurant reservation that make this feel like it could have been a better experience overall.

As, someone who has been exposed to Latin food my whole life . This place really hits the mark . Everything was amazing . I took home 6 peices of pastry . The cardamom buns where a15 out of 10! And the chicken & waffles . You can taste so many familiar spices & ingredients in every bite !

This is absolutely one of the best meals I ever had which is saying something because I've eaten across Europe, Turkey, and North America. Their homemade shakshuka was so rich and flavorful and they bottle it and sell it along with an assortment of honemade jams and hot sauces. The service was fantastic. It took a bit to get our food (which is normal for shakshuka) and they bought us cookies for our wait. It was also a beautifully decorated cafe. Highly recommend.

I don’t want to leave a good review because then this place will become famous and I will never get a table. Service: Why are the staff members so happy here? What a nice bunch of people. The energy spills into the delicious food. Food: Get the Mofongo Benedict. The food is like a hug from inside your tummy. This Latina is very happy to have found this amazing fusion of different flavors to feast on. Thank you. Music: Gosh, listening to Juan Luis Guerra brought me back in time. Lovely music and it was not loud. Yas! I could have a conversation with my partner and listen to the music. My husband was left unsupervised and bought hot sauce and coffee to bring home. We got a complimentary pastry from the owner. We also learned that they have special dinning events on some Thursday nights. Check them on Resy. So, don’t come here. I don’t want to share the happy people with the delicious food with anybody. Mine.

So much heart and attention to detail has been put into this cozy, neighborhood family friendly spot. It’s obvious the owners love their culture and the food they make. You can feel the love. Café con leche was perfect, just like abuela would make. It missed the secret pinch of salt but still excellent. Ordered a $5.50 chicken empanada that didn’t deliver unfortunately. I grew up eating Cuban empanadas and they are always - hot, juicy, heavy and full of flavor with a little crunchy-chewy action with the dough. This had none of those elements. A meager spoonful of chicken stuff that had zero flavor. Their home made tamarind hot sauce helped me finish it. Their star dish - mofongo Benedict was excellent explosion of Latin flavor and recommend sharing as it is large. The shredded pork was cooked perfectly. Their abundant selection of pastries looked amazing but didn’t try this time as the mofongo filled me up. Giving a 5 star for overall experience for flavor and ambiance. 💙

This past weekend my two friends and I decided to visit Providence, unforeseen circumstances wound up with one of my friends being admitted to the hospital late at night. I wanted to assure we had a comfortable safe and warm place to stay while I waited for her in the ER so I called Downtown Providence Marriott. I spoke with a gentleman, although I unfortunately did not think to ask his name though he has a very very distinct accent, who told me he would book me a room for the night. I proceeded to give him my credit card information and he provided me with instruction that it was okay no matter what time we checked in as I told him we were waiting for my friend to get discharged but that we just needed to check out the following morning at noon. With my full name, credit card information, and background on the situation I was in he booked my room and even provided me a confirmation number for my reservation, not only did he verbalize my confirmation code I was also sent an email about my reservation as well. After my friend was discharged we were all exhausted and headed to the Marriott where we were met with locked doors and the same man who I spoke to on the phone interrogating us through the intercom system. He insisted we were at the wrong hotel even though I provided the address AND phone number I called for the Downtown Providence location and he refused to let us through the doors. As I said this man has a VERY distinct accent and intonation and I made clear I was the one he spoke to on the phone for the reservation a mere 2 hours prior but he insisted it wasn’t him ( mind you the only other person at the check in was a woman and I spoke to a man.) I was trying to stay as collected as I could but after 5 hours in an emergency room this was the last thing I expected to have to deal with. After calmly providing all the information he asked of me at the locked door i saw him pick up his phone and call for security. The older security man that came to speak with us was this hotels only saving grace, he listened and profusely apologized to us for the events of the night because it was clear to him that the man at the counter was out of line. My two guesses on why the couldn’t find the reservation I booked, gave a card for, and got a confirmation number for is as follows: 1: the man at the front desk screwed up and just point blank never actually booked my room for me But the more likely is 2: when he saw me and my two friends at the door, inarguably looking a bit haggard from our time in the hospital he didn’t want “people like us” in the hotel Mind you we are three very normal young women who happen to have faced a good deal of misfortune that night and we were met with the most hostile and unsympathetic customer service I have literally ever seen in my life. The man working the over night 9/6-9/7 with the gray hair and accent should be held accountable for his despicable behavior and I sure pray the any young woman in his life is safe around him because he was more than willing to let my friends and I stay out in the cold early morning in an unfamiliar city.

When I to my room i noticed it was nice clean and quiet. I had a long weekend and was exhausted so I ate some food and went right to sleep. When I woke up I noticed some stains on my sheets… no big deal. When I get to the bathroom to brush my teeth I find pee all over the toilet, too the paste in the sink and on the walls, and hair in the shower. The bathroom was completely disgusting. I get down stairs and go to grab some coffee and the man behind the desk comes over and questions if I’m a guest at the hotel, and asked my room number. I tell him my room number and go back to getting coffee, then I could hear him whispering to another member of the staff that people are in the building that shouldn’t be and she asks how they got in.. at this point I’m extremely aggravated and just left. I didn’t even get the chance to speak on my grievances over the room. The room was very expensive and I’m pretty upset even thinking about the whole ordeal.

I had my wedding reception and wedding block at the Providence Marriott Downtown on 6/14. Working with the staff here was a breeze, a literal reception team of my dreams. They did everything in their power to make sure we had the food, atmosphere, and decor set up that we wanted despite rain and changing plans. The staff was amazing -- catering, social events, and the servers and bartenders. Would recommend Marriott hotels to anyone getting married!! All guests were amazed at the niceties in the newly renovated rooms, price, and ease with the reception right downstairs. Everyone was hanging in the hotel lobby and bar all weekend!

I’m honestly heartbroken by how this situation was handled. I’ve always trusted the Marriott name, believing it stood for integrity, professionalism, and care for its guests. Unfortunately, my recent experience proved otherwise. After checking out, I realized I had accidentally left a personal item in my room — something of both monetary and sentimental value. I immediately called the hotel, fully expecting they’d locate it quickly. Instead, I was brushed off, passed between departments, and ultimately told that “nothing was found.” It’s devastating to think that something I trusted would be safe in my room simply vanished without accountability. The lack of urgency, empathy, or even basic follow-up from staff was appalling. Not once did anyone seem genuinely concerned or take ownership of the situation. Marriott, you’ve lost more than just my item — you’ve lost my trust. Guests deserve honesty and care, not excuses and indifference. I will never stay at this location again, and I strongly urge others to be cautious — if you leave anything behind, don’t expect compassion or effort in helping you get it back.

It's near the freeway about 20 min from the providence airport. The dinner was GREAT! Fresh seafood and crab cakes...to die for. Thank you Victoria at the grille bar for the recommendations. She gave excellent and attentive service. It's in the downtown area so I didn't feel safe to cross the busy streets. There are however fantastic rated restaurants less than 10 min driving time. Hemenways was top rated I was also told by the locals that the Roger Williams Park zoo had a fantastic pumpkin carving spectacular going on right now. Didn't bring Archie but they do allow pets.

My husband made a reservation for myself and my two adult daughters to spend a weekend celebrating my daughter's birthday. Upon arrival at about 4pm, we were unable to check in as the reservation was under my husband's name. The woman at the desk said that we'd need to get him on the phone to change the reservation. I left him a voicemail. She then walked to the back room (I could see her!) and came back claiming she'd spoken with a supervisor. She had not spoken to anyone. She changed her story and said actually that he would either need to be there in person OR he could contact the 3rd party he'd book through (on his credit card points) and change the reservation to my name. I asked her what the latest time we could get this done would be without losing the reservation. She said she could hold the reservation until 7pm. Her attitude was very negative, and she was straight out RUDE to us. The only thing I could think of is that we were dressed very casually and my daughter is autistic. There was no reason for the way she spoke with us. We were very polite. I reached my husband at 5pm and he contacted the 3rd party to change the reservation. The 3rd party said that they were unable to change the reservation because there were NO ROOMS AVAILABLE and the hotel had cancelled our room. This was ONE HOUR after we'd been told they could hold it until 7pm -- 2 hours sooner than the deadline. Because he had paid on points, I now had to go to another hotel and pay cash I had not budgeted in order for us to keep our birthday plans for my daughter. Now I was out $400 I had not planned to spend. Then it got even more frustrating. I reached out to Marriott customer service and was told that they would take care of it for me. All I asked for was acknowledgment that they had treated us badly and an apology. What I got was nothing. I was ghosted. I reached out a 2nd time and never got any response from customer service. I have always used Marriott as my go-to and am SO disappointed in the treatment we received from the Providence hotel and the customer service department.

We won a free night here, booked it through the number on our certificate, and arrived for our night's stay, only to be told they would not honor the certificate their sales team had given. The manager clearly had a room set aside for us, as we had a reservation, but refused to honor it. We are long term Marriott fans, but extremely displeased by the lack of service at this location.

So, my son ordered the chowder...I had a bite, it was amazing. Service was top notch. However, my filet was literally white when I cut into it. Unacceptable. The wait staff took it away, they promised it would be right on second attempt and it was. The manager came by and took it off my bill as well as my glass of wine. Acceptable. They made it right and because of that they get 4 stars from me. Great recovery Bluefin

it was fine? like the food was pretty solid. they were out of a few things tho and just overall weren't super busy but maybe that was due to it being a random Sunday night. perfectly fine. side note if you get the Greek salad they also give you extra dressing but the salad is already dressed so just be aware (I'm not a heavy dressing girlie yk)

Pretty bad experience. Server was pretty lacking in the emotion department, but this didn't cause an issue until our main entree. We started with wings, and while they were pretty overpriced they were very good. However, after waiting a good half hour for our meal my burger (I asked for old bay fries and no pickles nor tomatoes) came with regular fries and both pickles and tomatoes. On top of this, the patty was still mooing! It was bright red and literally bleeding onto the bun, I should've taken photos of it before I sent it back. After another 25 minute wait (it was not that crowded) my burger came with old bay fries, no pickles, and tomatoes 🫩 I was too hungry to send it back again so I just ate it.

The host was polite, courteous, and enjoyable. Our waiter Jon provided exceptional service and excellent recommendations. The food was stunning. The chef special fish was out of this world good, cooked perfectly. Will visit again next time I'm in Rhode Island.

I took my BF to bluefin bay resorts for his birthday and we stopped here on night one after driving 5 hours. We ordered food and the food looked horrible and tasted disgusting. My BF never complains and will just stay quiet and pay anyway. But I told him not to because it was his birthday and we should take the food back and request something much more simple. We were seated right out side the kitchen doors. And the entire kitchen staff including out waiter from argentina Lucy I believe was talking crap about us and mocking us. They we’re also making fun of us. We over heard every single thing they said about us. This was the worse experience ever and a way to ruin my BFs birthday!!!

I’m not sure it would be worth eating here if you weren’t already staying at the hotel. The small menu had a good amount of variety, but the descriptions provided were a lot more promising than what was actually delivered. I ordered the papardelle bolognese (which I believe was one of, if not the most expensive items on the menu) and was thoroughly unimpressed. It was a vegan dish that lacked flavor and the pasta, which I’m assuming was homemade, tasted over cooked and was difficult to chew. I ended up eating not even half and didn’t bother bringing the rest back to my room with me. Someone else in my party ordered the prosciutto and fig flatbread, which was yummy but absolutely should not have been called a flatbread. The dough was so thick that at some points we had to cut the pizza with a fork and knife because we couldn’t bite through it. The calamari appetizer and fish and chip entree were both decent. Our waitress though, I believe her name was Kim, was phenomenal, very kind and attentive.

Took the wife out for our second anniversary, we decided to give Bluefin a try. It's a good looking place, music wasn't too loud, everything was clean. The food though, mid at best? Nothing wowed me, nothing stood out as anything more than meh. Calamari was bland, the crabcake sandwich was boring, even the Irish coffee at the end was half-assed at best. Not at all a memorable experience. Overpriced and overhyped. Skip it guys.

The rooms are the downside, since they are old and have a couple issues mainly with the pipes. Beds are comfy though and the staff is nice. Plus it’s attached to the convention center and right downtown so a great location. The room service is tasty and quick!

Love staying here! This was the third stay and always amazing service, also so very clean. Jerry, the security guard, is honest and serious about his job. He makes sure guests are safe and taken care of. He personally made sure I got to where I needed to go safely and went above and beyond to ensure the best service. The front desk staff is amazing and I highly recommend staying at the Omni as they have a top notch crew, in a top notch location!

The Omni Providence Hotel is a great luxury option when you're staying in the city. It is convenient to dozens of nearby eateries and other entertainment. The rooms are spacious m, clean and fairly modern. They also have great beds. There are two restaurants on property. Flemmings and another high level brand. The service is friendly, fast and efficient for just about anything you'd need. The have valet parking as well as a self park garage with a hotel entrance. Definitely will be our go to place when visiting the region again.

I am writing this review with extreme disappointment after a truly terrible stay. This hotel failed on the two most fundamental levels: cleanliness and customer service. This was not a case of a minor oversight; the room was visibly dirty from the previous guests. The carpets/rugs were stained and had visible debris, the furniture was dusty and sticky, and the light switches were grimy. It was completely unacceptable. The Housekeeping Issue: We left the room at 8:15 AM for the day and noted a housekeeping cart just two doors down. We even exchanged "good morning" with the housekeeper. Despite this, our room was entirely skipped. The Unprofessional and Rude Front Desk: This was the worst part. When I called the front desk at 5:00 PM to report that our room had not been serviced, the staff member was immediately dismissive and argumentative. Instead of apologizing or sending someone to clean, he told me, "You must not have ever stayed at a hotel before," and condescendingly informed me that they "do not do turndown service." We were not asking for turndown service—a simple evening courtesy. We were asking why our basic, daily room cleaning had been completely neglected. He was deliberately misrepresenting our complaint to avoid responsibility. His attitude was nasty, unprofessional, and utterly shocking. Conclusion: A hotel should provide a clean, safe space and professional service. This hotel provided neither. The physical state of the room was unpleasant, but the disrespect from the front desk staff made the situation infuriating. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Spend your money elsewhere where you will be treated like a valued guest.

"upscale" hotel. I don't expect to have to hear mechanical whirring noises for close to 24hrs (22nd floor) at an upscale hotel. I don't expect half the gym to be broken at an upscale hotel. I don't expect to be asked if we want our room cleaned @ 4.30pm while we're trying to relax before going out for the evening, when they've had all day to clean while we were out. When calling down for coffee pods for the Keurig, I do expect it to be brought, and it wasn't. Anyway rant over, the hotel is in a great location, the hotel bar is really lovely, and the room itself (eg: bed, bathroom, cleanliness etc) is all good. But the noise thing was absurd. Yes we could have asked to switch rooms but 1. There shouldn't be any room with that level of noise, and 2. We were only there 2 nights so it just didn't seem worth it.

Rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. Hotel is connected to the mall, as well as the Providence Convention Center, with makes it very convenient for meetings, as well as shopping. However, for the size of the hotel, there are limited restaurant choices so you have to venture out to find a place to eat.

Recently stayed for a conference. I had payed through a third party. Stay was fine. Room was average (West tower signature king). My issue is that the hotel charged me again for my stay, despite me having paid already. I only noticed while checking my credit card statement for something else. I called and they were able to offer me a refund which I’m still waiting for as they said it could take a couple days. However, the person on the phone offered zero apology for the inconvenience and mishap and instead tried to blame me for booking through a third party. I would not be inclined to stay here again due to this interaction.

This place was great! awesome flavor combos and the employees were really happy and nice 😊

This place was good. The ladies that worked there was cool. The place is on the small side and not to much sitting. The menu is nice big n clear to read. There are a good amount of items to choose from. They have the choices of small, medium, and large cups. Now please know you are not going to get the same size cups if you ate use to going somewhere like dunkin. The cups here are smaller. The coffee was fresh no burned taste and the smoothies are made with real fruit and vegetables. They will add or subtract whatever you do or don't want. The wait was not to bad especially knowing you were getting it fresh. Just know the traffic and parking is terrible. You are going to pay for quality.

Delicious hot fudge ice cream sundae! Had a scoop each of peanut butter crunch and maple walnut. Abundant fudge and whipped cream topping. Friendly staff and plenty of seating.

Found this while visiting a outdoors market, and it was the perfect little treat after all the walking! I got the coffee Oreo ice cream and it was really good. It was nice and creamy then the flavors were bold on top of that.

do you guys use a tablespoon to measure your portions? Not only is your staff extremely rude and unfriendly but your ice cream scoop portions are embarrassing especially in comparison to all local places. I think if you are going to make the change from the nice coffee/ breakfast / lunch place to an ice cream only joint you should probably invest in being a comparable ice cream place with good customer service to sustain the longevity of your business

Ice cream was very good but place is filthy. Overflowing trash inside , glass door looks like it is never cleaned tables filthy outside with garbage on ground. Two of the four employees sitting on their phones. Clearly no management of any kind. It’s too bad…. dirty food establishments are a major turn off no matter how good ice cream is

Ok! Let's just go ahead and add this place as a top favorite ❤🥰 I felt like a little kid full of ice cream dessert options and SURPRISE I was not disappointed. I have to come back and try the breakfast and lunch menu. Guys this place is a must go!! The staff was so wonderful and patient.

PVDonuts – Providence, RI PVDonuts is absolutely worth the hype! 🍩 The moment you walk in, the smell of fresh dough and creative toppings hits you, and you know you’re in for something special. The donuts are huge, fluffy, and packed with flavor — truly next-level compared to your average shop. I loved the variety of flavors, from the fun seasonal creations to the classics done right. Each one is like a little work of art. The staff was upbeat and friendly, keeping things moving quickly even with a line out the door. The vibe is fun and casual, perfect for grabbing a treat to start the day or sharing with friends. If you’re in Providence, PVDonuts is a must-stop spot — indulgent, unique, and unforgettable!

I’ve been to PVD Donuts a few times before, but this was my first time checking out their new spot. The new location is way bigger and so much more comfortable; lots of seating and you don’t feel crammed in. Get there early because once a flavor sells out, that’s it! My husband and I grabbed the Carrot Cake, Vanilla Sprinkles, and a Honey Cruller. The Honey Cruller was the winner for me! Super light, flourless, and just so good. Definitely worth the visit!

5/5 Chocolate covered strawberries -- loved the crisp exterior with the moist interior of this old fashioned donut dough! I also really enjoyed the fresh strawberry flavor. Definitely on the sweeter side. 4/5 Tiramisu -- would say this is a good "not too sweet option" for those looking for those kinds of desserts! The brioche dough by itself as quite a salty bite to it, complemented with the mascarpone cream topping. I wish it had more coffee notes to resemble more of espresso dipped ladyfingers in tiramisu. These both traveled great in the box on the train with me to NYC! I would recommend going earlier or pre-ordering if you know you are visiting for sure as I noticed on their IG page they were sold out by 1pm on the day I visited.

Love this place so much. I found them on instagram in 2017 and we’ve been driving from Massachusetts to Providence since then just for them. The donuts are amazing, the people are real, and it’s absolutely worth whatever drive you have to make!!

This donut shop was very cozy inside and had quite a few tables. Loved the hanging plants from the ceiling. The donuts were decadent and you’ll pay for that- but they were a delicious treat that we ate at the park while all the runners and walkers came by. We had the blueberry fritter, chocolate cake donut, carrot cake donut, and maple bacon brioche donut. I also had the cold brew. We paid $36. My favorite was the carrot cake. I wish they had an apple fritter but their flavors rotate, as I like to try town’s apple fritters as I travel. If I’m in town again, I’d go back. Steps required to get into the shop.

I can see how popular this place is! I've only been successfully able to get in here once because I just like sleeping in too much. 😆 They do have to close early if they run out of donuts. I came in and the most helpful employee greeted me and assisted me with my order. I chose the carrot cake donut and a lavender iced coffee. The coffee was delicious and didn't need my usual cream or sugar. My carrot cake donut was fresh and perfectly sweet. Very delicious. I need to try to get back here again at an earlier time.

I've been wanting to check this place out after seeing it on social media; now I get the hype. They opened in 2016 and brought brioche style donuts to New England. The donuts are handmade fresh daily and they have a variety of flavors and unique combos to choose from. They have crullers, fritters, cake, filled brioche, old fashioned, and many more options. Every month they have different flavors and of course, different seasons comes with different offerings. They also have coffee from various vendors. The donuts are made by hand daily and with so many unique flavors to try. The brioche donut was huge, airy, and light; not too sweet which complements the various sweeter toppings. I had their maple bacon donut and that was so so so GOOD; the bacon was crispy/salty and the maple frosting was just the right amount of sweet and went well the airy brioche, I love the sweet and savory flavor. The service was great too, quick and friendly. There were seating inside and outside. The location is great on Wickenden Street with plenty of on-street parking; although, on weekends it may be tougher to find closer parking. I can't wait to go back and try out more of their donuts!

The woman at the register was nice and helpful. This location has plenty of seating. After lunch time, there were people in here on their laptops working in the booths. It seems like it would be a comfortable spot for that. I remember the bread being better here when I was younger but it’s fine. This location does not have a drive through because it’s located inside the mall.

Great job kitchen & possible manager stream lining orders and handling hard people. Made me upset to see you guys have to deal with that but everything was handled pretty professionally. I got great service and great attitude. God Bless!

It has always been a good experience at Panera Bread. Keep it up - you may be a store manager, or a part-time employee. Keep it up and do a good job - you will be rewarded - just a matter of time when it is getting better. There are plenty of seating in this store. Great location at Providence Place mall to grab some healthy food in a relaxing place.

The best workers at any panera I've ever been to. I would recommend this location time and time again! From the fresh food to the politeness and courteousness of everyone it is always a pleasant time here! As a regular they never fail me and I Thank you to the team at this Panera !!!!

The ingredients are fresh, the seasoning is excellent, and paired with their expertly made bread, their sandwiches are truly delicious.

At the end of the day this was the best Panera bread I ever had the crew was excellent in the food was fantastic. The general manager Daniela was excellent she runs a great crew. Everybody was nice and the food was fresh.

I ordered 8/21 they gave the Dasher the wrong order. I called and they said they were going to remake it and send me my order. That was almost 2 hours ago now and nothing happened. This isn't the first time they've messed up either, another time they promised to remake it and add a dessert. I got my food, cold, so it wasn't remade and no dessert. Stop promising things you're not going to actually do for the customer.

We had the best experience here! This was our first time in Rhode Island so we really wanted to try the coffee milk and it was absolutely delicious! The staff, especially Joe, were extremely patient and kind, and we bought a t-shirt and some coffee syrups to bring home. Overall, definitely recommend!

The mango lemonade was delicious and did not taste artificial, which is a very difficult thing to do. The croissant, bacon, egg, and cheese was very filling and also tasted great. I also appreciate that if you spend $25 you get a free drink. I definitely recommend going here; it’s very affordable and the store itself is very cute and cozy, a great place to study or do work.

Heard to try coffee milk while I was in Rhode Island. Specifically this place. And it’s actually really good. I talked about liking it so much (and trying to find other places that tasted just as good. Which I couldn’t find anywhere) that my (now) fiance proposed with a coffee milk bouquet very cute!

What an adorable spot!! I decided to try the weekly special Frankenstein Matcha. I ordered it less sweet. I came as part of a big group and all the employees did an amazing job getting the drinks out quickly and accurately. The drink I had was terrific. The ube was sweet and creamy and perfectly sweet and the matcha was nice and earthy. Ube and taro are some of my favorite drink flavors and this was similar to a bubble tea without the boba. The menu had a lot of options that sounded terrific so I'm hoping to go back soon and try something out! I saw they can add a homemade marshmallow and/or a maple whipped cream to any drink and those are both calling my name!!

Stopped here on a whim, we were walking by and needed our caffeine fix. I love coffee shops so I was excited to check it out. I read after the fact that they make all natural, small batch, cold brewed coffee syrup that you can mix with milk to make coffee milk; a Rhode Island staple. They roast coffee beans in their 7000 sq ft roastery in Narragansett. There are two Dave's Coffee shops, one in Charlestown and one in Providence. Love supporting a small business, especially from my home state! I saw a sign right out on the sidewalk showing their specials. I had to try out their iced cardamom vanilla oat milk latte; that was perfect and I could've drank a whole gallon of it. Service was great and ambiance was that of a cozy coffee shop. The coffee was fresh and tasty. A great asset to have in RI.

The baristas here are so sweet! They made the best drinks and had a wide variety of options. My friend and I got coffee there every single day of our trip in Rhode Island. She kept getting the white chocolate hibiscus lavender matcha, and I got the sea salt coconut and honey latte! We also got the ocean latte and mango honey matcha, both of which were also great 😆🩷

Had a great latte here vanilla. Very good espresso too. There coffee is small batch roasted and you can definitely tell they take pride in their work. Great people working here also very nice and they know their coffee. Their suggestion for a whole bean coffee to go was spot on. Blind pig I'm glad I got it very good rich and smooth. Roasted 5 days prior to my purchase. Worth every penny!

Love this place! The staff is always incredibly friendly. The vibes are amazing. They have THE BEST homemade pickles!!! I wish they sold jars of them. 🤤🤤🤤 Highly recommend with a sandwich and coffee. So good!!

It's a place with a really cool vibe. I had an egg sandwich, and it was very good. Also, at the time I was there paintings of a local painter named Joe Marchesi were on the display. The paintings are pretty good, go check them out if you are in the neighborhood.

Cool artsy spot; great sandwiches (love it that you can opt for a pickle instead of chips!), good coffee. The spot is very popular so prepare for quite a bit of a wait

What a great place! The atmosphere is fantastic -- can just relax and enjoy the space, I can imagine doing a lot of writing here. The service was kind. And the coffee was delicious too (regular black coffee and a latte). The bagel was wonderful, with a good texture and tons of flavor. Overall, my only gripe is that I did not come sooner!

Went for lunch, had a sandwich on a garlic bagel. Fresh, delicious, and generously filled. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The latte was very good too

Came here in the morning and got some pastries which were pretty good and ordered a black sesame latte hoping it would be as good as the one I had in NYC. Unfortunately, the latte fell short. The black sesame syrup was way too sweet but I would give it a 2nd chance for regular coffee if I'm ever in the area as the staff was generally nice.

Eclectic local shop! Inspiring story of a workers owned spot here in Providence. Didn’t even know about this model until I learned about it from this place. Friendly staff. Love how they share local resources on their board. Clean environment, even their bathroom is cute! Lol Delicious Macha as well as everything else I’ve tried here such as their chocolate croissants and iced lattes with honey! 😋

Excellent spot if you’re looking for a classy night out in Providence. Came here for the RI Food Fights burger competition, and their burger was by far the best tasting and was the best value, as you also got fries and a side of chicken nuggets. I also ordered a Brussels app, it was not what I expected and unlike most Brussels dishes that I’ve had, but it tasted great. The rest of their menu looked amazing as well. It’s definitely not cheap, but you will get what you pay for here. The pistachio martini was also delicious and unique. Bartender was friendly and conversational as well. It’s also in a great location right across from Trinity Rep so could make for a good pre-show meal. An excellent choice if you’re looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion or just to splurge a little.

We will not be returning to Res. Service: Miguel S., although you were a very pleasant waiter, you only informed us about the specials after we inquired, and that was following our appetizer order. The service was quite slow, resulting in a meal that stretched over three hours. We appreciate your effort to come and apologize for the delay. Atmosphere: We sat in the upstairs area, where it was both hot and noisy. The women's bathroom, in contrast, was extremely cold. Washing my hands there felt like using the icy water left over from melted ice in a cooler. Food: They were out of so many beer options that we had to ask which ones were actually available. Additionally, they did not have the sparkling rosé we wanted. My salmon was tasty, but the plate was not sufficiently heated, and the spinach was overly salty. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his lamb. The dessert was impressively creative and we appreciated it. However, overall, this dining experience did not justify the expense of over $190.

We went on opening night, what a beautiful restaurant inside and out , it’s conveniently located a couple mins off of the highway and right in down town area. They have a 2 floor establishment , but with the windows on both floors , you will get some great views from either while you eat. For the first night being open , the staff were on their game, and they were all very friendly. We were even greeted by the chef and owners which was a pleasant surprise. Now on to the menu , the cocktails we had were amazing , my fave was “ the Sanchez” . The appetizers were unbelievable , you can’t go wrong with the lobster Tempura or the lamb chops. The main courses were exquisite. I had the butter aged sirloin , and it was mind blowingly delicious. I tried a bite of all my friends food and all the food was all flawless. So for my first time this place was everything you would expect from fine dining. I can’t wait to come back !!!

Came here for a dinner hosted by a vendor for work. Was able to try a bunch of different appetizers. Got the lobster roll, wished their had just a bit more lobster. The dessert tart was also delicious. Got the lychee martini and some strawberry drink that everyone was getting. Both drinks were good. Service was very good as there were prob 30 of us. Very attentive all night.

Food was good although the burger was unimpressive. Not bad just unimpressive. Will def be back and order something else. The charcuterie and my wife’s scallops and risotto were excellent. The drinks were outstanding, 5 of 5. The service was also outstanding. The young woman who took cares of us did an excellent job. My only complaint about this place is that’s it TOO LOUD. Having loud music play while enjoying a meal just takes away from the dining. 2 thumbs down on loud music during dinner!

We had our wedding reception at Res, everything was absolutely amazing. The owner, Evan, and Caity, the event coordinator, were so accommodating. They helped us customize our menu to our liking, seating arrangements, and decor. We received so many compliments on how beautiful the space was, food was outstanding (the steak was to die for!), and the service was out of this world. They absolutely made our visions come to life and the day was so perfect, thanks to them!

First time dining in at Res american bistro. Great ambiance, delicious cocktail, very attentive server for our table, Justin, were our first impression of Res. We had Lobster Tempura, Lamb chops, Burrata salad, Flatbread as appetizer, and The grille’s filet as main dish. Our favorite dishes were lobster tempura and burrata salad with pistachio pesto. For the lamb chop, actually we liked roasted onion mostarda came out as a side better than the actual lamb. Chef Evan seems like talented and experimental on putting different cultural aspect together in each dish. We still have many other dishes we want to try here at Res, so definitely coming back. Event manager, Katie, was also very nice on explaining on details about event options at the 2nd floor when we had some questions. Highly recommend!

Love this place, the bagels is always top notch. I love that there is plenty of options. The best part, is having your bagel neat! Nothing falls off / apart. Very neat and organized, my go to is cinnamon raisin bagel, sausage, bacon, egg, American cheese, avocado and jalapeños with jalapeño cream cheese and a side of small black coffee. Pricey but worth it, and supporting local is always a plus.

Very average bagel sandwich. Expensive for the quality and I don’t recommend the sausage. I would be interested in trying the Mexican food next time though

I always found myself grabbing breakfast from this place for almost four years. And in those 4 years, they never failed to meet my expectations for a good breakfast Sandwich. The staff were lovely to talk to, even going further beyond to remember my order as my "usual" whenever I went in. Little to no wait time between their orders. The breakfast sandwiches were never anything but amazing. A great hole in the wall spot to grab breakfast before work.

The smell and sounds were all so genuine and rich in culture. Their bagels had their familiar crusty bite but just melted in your mouth once you start chompin' I ordered the Cinnamon Raisin bagel with a Cinnamon Raisin cream cheese spread. And as redundant as that sounds I think the spread fell too short of the markup price just by taste alone. Equally, the bagel was grilles which is a welcomed method of toasting, however, it had the grills residual flavors of garlic, salt, and some other questionable flavors left unrecognizable due to the other sweet flavors. I finished the bagel and spread with a med hot chocolate of SwissMiss and whole milk. It wasn't too hot, so I was pleased I could drink it right away. Overall 5 stars but the rookie mistake of a not so clean grill set the flavor profile a star below.

Excellent customer service! Very friendly and welcoming!! Will definitely come back whenever I’m in Providence!! Food is EXCELLENT!!

I get breakfast here just about every day. The bagels are amazing, they use fresh eggs so their sandwiches are delicious. I always get a tomato egg and cheese on a spinach bagel and it never disappoints. Theres a larger than average cream cheese selection and I haven't tried one I didn't like. PLUS everyone that works there is so kind and lovely. It's an amazing place!

I’ll miss the bagel here! The sundry tomato cream cheese is so rich and creamy. This is definitely my brunch to-go place.

We had breakfast at the Blue Cottage after flying in from North Carolina and found the place very nice. The food was amazing, and the service was great. Note, they don't take credit cards or ATM, but they do take pay by app. Love to go back when in town next.

Comfortable, quaint & quiet place, perfect breakfast spot for 2 friends catching up. In the heart of the beautiful & boisterous East side 💙 The food was excellent with perfect portions 😋 Service was great - Just be aware/ need to know credit or debit not accepted ✌️

I wanted to take a moment to share how much I enjoyed my recent visit. I stumbled upon your little hidden gem, and I’m so glad I did! From the moment I walked in, the welcoming atmosphere made me feel right at home. The service was excellent, and the waitress was incredibly friendly and attentive. As for the food, everything was absolutely amazing. had the mango shake, which was refreshing and delicious. For my main course, I tried the eggs with homemade corned beef hash, and I have to say it was the best I’ve ever had. The potato slices under the hash added such a delightful touch, and the eggs were cooked to perfection. Every bite was a treat! I’ll definitely be coming back and will highly recommend your restaurant to others!

A very sweet, casual breakfast place. The service was friendly and the food was well-made. The place is small but cozy, a quintessential hometown diner vibe. A great please to get an affordable, classic American breakfast. Will definitely be back again in the future!

First time here. The coffee wasn’t good to my taste and neither was the food. The home fries were sliced potatoes and very bland. The toast was dry . They also don’t accept credit cards, just Zelle and Venmo for electronic payments. Priced higher than other places for same breakfast.

Homemade hash. Nice and crispy. Good pulled strips of corned beef. Fast. Open nice and early in the weekends. Open right before 7am. Reasonable prices.

I love this little spot on Hope street. Food taste so fresh. The air is clean, the owners are the waitress and the chef; so talk about family feel... Tip: try that waffle so light and airy.....hmmmm

On hunt for a great breakfast place? This place delivers. 2nd best pancakes I’ve ever had. Waffles are crispy as well as soft. Omelettes are fully packed with fresh ingredients. Real standout is the staff, keeps the coffee flowing. Small place but worth it.

I really wanted to give the cafe 5 stars because the food was amazing. My waitress was rude and not attentive at all. So many times I had to ask another worker for coffee refill, my check, take out container etc. She never once came to see how everything was or if we needed a refill. The water was giving to us with no ice not sure if that was normal but it wasn’t cold either. I seen everyone getting great service by my waitress besides my family. Next time if I go back Im asking for the girl with curly hair or the one with glasses they were so helpful and make me want to give the place a second chance since they seen my frustration. Overall the place was clean even the bathroom which is a plus!

Wow. I’ve been to Rhody Hen in Pawtucket twice in a row now and it’s still just as good. The Steak Tip Benedict is obnoxiously good, I can’t stop thinking about it. Everything was cooked perfectly and loaded with flavor. Coffee’s on point too. I’ve had both the cold brew and the regular iced coffee, both were great. It can definitely get busy, but honestly, it’s worth the wait every time. I’ve only been to the Pawtucket location so far, but yeah… I still can’t get over how good that dish was. I’ll absolutely be back.

Great little place food was extremely good along side some mimosa’s . Our server was Mike very on top of his job with great info about the food . The bill was a little on high side for breakfast but definitely be back

the rhody hen is always one of my go-to places for breakfast. ive tried many different things here! pawtucket is a smaller size location so parking can be iffy if its busy.. depending when you get there, there could be a wait like any breakfast place but its worth it in my opinion. get there early early and you’re probably chillin in there 😎 i recommend giving it a try!! 👌🏼this time i went got the cubano breakfast sandwich.

I absolutely adore these places, the "hole in the wall" type places that when you walk in, you just know there is care in the food..they have added little touches every where in here it's so cute. What a surprise to see a familiar face come to our table! This is some dangerously good food.. Wait as y'all say up here Wicked good food!! I subbed(I know but you will understand in a second) my Chicken and waffles for 🥁.... FRENCH TOAST and Chicken.... 😲😲😲🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 See I had a good reason!! It was all Soo good!!! I finished mine with good ole agua.. The kids meal was Eggs Benedict with chorizo ☺️☺️☺️ She also ordered an apple cider mock tail...I wished I took a photo of it!!! Apple cider with a Carmel brown sugar rim.. If your close or you have Google amhas brought you here. It's reaaaaaalllly good!!

I have been looking for a good corned beef hash eversince jp spoonems closed, and everywhere it always falls short for me... Except here. I finally found the best corned beef hash in the state! Mission complete. Everything else was great too (eggs cooked perfectly, steak tips delicious, etc) but my god that corned beef hash was so good it's going to haunt my dreams...

Nice clean atmosphere, good service. Ive been to this location many times over the last 5 years since I live right up the road. It was always a place where you knew what you would get: good quality food and a nice clean establishment. While I will vouch the cleanliness is still up to expectation, the food has gone straight down the drain, I don't believe I will return. My last 3 experiences I have been served COLD dry food. French toast is just a piece of bread with powdered sugar, it was so cold the butter wouldn't even melt. I don't believe they cooked it for more than 30 seconds. My girlfriend had substituted her hash-browns for fruit, they gave her HALF of a strawberry, and maybe 3 small pieces of melon. I understand things are expensive and portions may be affected, but this was just downright not caring about your product. Cold eggs, cold sausage, everything on my plate was cold. This has happened my last 3 consecutive visits. If I were you, I would not bother coming anymore, until they decide to start caring again about their product. The value is just not there, at all. It's a shame, but luckily Athenas is right up the road also. My advice: have competent kitchen staff that take maybe a little pride in what they do. I'll give them one more chance, but it'll be awhile until i bring anyone here again.

Came from RI Food Fights.. Was told we had to sit down to use our breakfast voucher. Which is fine, but always a little annoying as we already paid for the voucher and now feel obligated to pay for something else on top of money we already spent. Which is, again, fine, but at least have your food be of quality. Truly this place was just awful from start to finish. This breakfast sandwich was basically inedible, covered in maple syrup all over the outside so you couldn’t lift it, the sausage in it was not breakfast sausage, it tasted like a weird hotdog with a really thick casing that you couldn’t even bite through… it was really really gross. And it came with sweet waffle fries which sounds great in theory but they were not. And then the waffle we ordered was completely burnt and had “maple butter” which was not good at all and wouldn’t melt, it was almost sour and had a gooey texture idk something about it was just off. Really disappointing and will not be going back. Idk why they decided to do Food Fights if they were going to make people feel weird about using the coupon and then also have yucky food and only allow you to pick that one item.

I used to love this place, but the food quality has been really going downhill the last several times I've ordered. Whoever they have in the kitchen needs to be re-trained. Overcooked eggs. Incorrect cheese, I requested cheddar and received a disgusting shredded american with a texture that makes me sick. Food thrown onto bun in a mess. I'm very disappointed, because this is usually my favorite breakfast place.

Best breakfast spot in the area. The dough babies will have you falling in love. Also gotta enjoy a yummy Irish coffee while you're there. Never had a dish I didn't like.

I ordered delivery at 7am. The food arrived at 8:30am. Cold! My driver was shown to be at the place for over 40 min waiting on the order . And I also paid $3 for a “fastest delivery 🙃”.

Delicious. Melt in your mouth. Loved the apple sausage omelet and the kids loved the kids breakfast and Mickey's pancakes. When we come back this will be the place we go. Home fries are crispy and yummy.

I had a fantastic experience here! The food was absolutely delicious, and the veggie smoothie was an absolute standout. It was so good that I'm already craving another one! I highly recommend this place and can't wait to come back for more🥰

Fun, cozy bar spot with good food and good options for non-alcoholic IPAs. I've been here several times before and always loved the food. This time around I got the pulled pork nachos and my partner got a burger. Nachos were excellent! The restaurant is currently undergoing "menu renovations" so their food selections are limited at the moment. To the kitchen at Black Duck Tavern, bring back the chicken and waffles!

Delicious meal before heading to the comedy club next door. The restaurant is large and very welcoming. The drinks are expertly made (if you like spicy drinks, go for the “Some Like it Hot”), our waitress was attentive and the food was hot and delicious. We had to try the mozzarella sticks in the shape of ducks - gooey and stringy and the best crust! We both had sandwiches for dinner, and my burger was exceptional… juicy and tasty with an amazing fig spread. Leave room for dessert, the caramel/salt topped cheesecake is a winner 🌟 The restaurant is accessible. There is parking in the back and on the sides, as well as street parking.

This is a great restaurant located seconds off the highway. If you fancy your self a night out on the town, or if your catching a comedy show next door at the comedy connection, this restaurant is the perfect place before and after the show. They have a great looking place, the inside gives off a classy relaxing vibe. They have plenty of seating , and have a nice outside patio for the warmer weather. The staff are great and attentive. Drinks and good are slammin. I’ve never been here and been disappointed. So again if your looking for a great place to try.. the Black Duck is worth the trip.

So I made a reservation for the outdoor patio and was seated there and it looked really nice, I enjoyed the look and atmosphere of the restaurant. Unfortunately, me and my two brunch partners had to wait an hour and 20 minutes for our food. We arrived for a 2:15 brunch reservation and didn't receive the food till 3:30ish, left at 4:15. Two customers who arrived about 10 minutes after us actually received their food, ate, and left before we received ours and the waitress told us there was two big groups inside so our food was late. Watching everyone else get served waiting for my eggs,home fries, and bacon, I was very confused. Really sweet waitress though! $10 bottomless mimosas were nice!!

Great prices at brunch! We didn’t make a reservation but we were still able to be seated right away even though it was pretty full. It wasn’t my favorite breakfast but it is reasonably priced. So I was thrilled with everything. Would definitely come back for their bottomless mimosas promotion. Only $15 for as many as you want in the two hours.

The poor waitress seemed to be servicing all the tables with little help. Nonetheless, she was as attentive as she could be. Food was great! The mozzarella ducks were SO cute! I had the impossible smash burger with mushrooms and swiss and it was delicious! The West coast burger was also good. The coffee cake (not the name on menu) was amazing, light, and not too sweet.

This was a great family dinner out. They had a TV with cartoons playing while the adults could talk and enjoy good food and drink. It's perfect for families looking for good food and a nicer dining experience. We will definitely be back!

After visiting RISD museum, I took a quick break at this coffee shop. The drink and scone are very good, especially the scone (with butter). The price is reasonable and service is excellent.

This is now the best coffee and service in Town The museum branch has amazing breakfast biscuits w Jam but it’s the coffee that draws me here.

Very nice and convenient cafeteria! The avocado toasts were amazing. The breakfast sandwich was excellent. Drinks were great, too: tea, macha latte, Americano Prices are not low, but the food was really enjoyable!

Their sister location is also fantastic. Matcha tonic was amazing. Lovely baristas

I enjoy Bolt coffee and if you’re near this museum this is a convenient place to find it. Parking can be tricky but worth it if you find a spot.

This place is absolutely fantastic. They knock everything out of the park: service is super friendly, the coffee is well-crafted, and the food is fresh and flavorful. My recommendations are: the breakfast sandwich and the avocado toast. 👍🏾

I was visiting providence for two days and I drank coffee twice there. I loved the staff and the atmosphere. Worth visiting if you're in providence. I had ginger snap & I forgot the other one something. Both were super perfect.

Super cute on the inside, great customer service- the employees were so kind and helpful. They did not have crounuts? when I went (on a weekday) but I did try their jelly donut and coffee cake donut. The raspberry jelly was good but it took many bites to get to the jelly, because it was so sweet and rich, it was overwhelming at the end and I couldn’t finish it. On the other hand, the coffee cake donut was delicious- award winning. Everything was super fresh and tasted delicious.

Knead to try harder…mediocre donuts at epicurean prices. Purchased two donuts, an expired milk and a water for $15. Donuts were day olds…despite being there an hour after opening. Good flavor (blueberry lemon and strawberry shortcake) but super dry to the point we didn’t finish. They were nice an about the expired milk and then checked the whole case, but were nonverbal during the purchase. Clearly not morning people.

This is a really cute doughnut shop with a nice variety of fresh high quality donuts. We came on a Saturday morning and it wasn’t too busy and they had a great selection of donuts and pastries to choose from. The service was great too. We got a brown butter pecan donut and a mocha old fashioned donut. The brown butter pecan donut was one of the best donuts I’ve ever had. It was so big and fluffy and had so many little pecan pieces coating it. The mocha old fashioned was good too but the texture wasn’t quite as good and I didn’t taste much coffee flavor. This is a great a great spot with delicious donuts! We’ll be back for sure and will recommend it to friends!

I came in skeptical, and unfortunately, the donuts didn’t win me over. The chocolate frosted with sprinkles and vanilla glazed tasted basic - definitely not worth the premium price. The pecan was the best of the bunch, but overall, it felt overhyped. I’m a PV Donut guy.

Came here looking for a good apple fritter and the apple fritter was good not the best it could be but still yummy. The vanilla glaze is a good choice as well but I hated the chocolate frosted. The donut was dry, the frosting seemed store bought and the sprinkles were not enjoyable. I also got a cinnamon roll donut and it look so promising but there was not cinnamon throughout it was just a plain donut with cinnamon glaze. It was also a bit pricy $6/donut is a bit steep considering the quality.

Amazingly this place is never crowded on weekday mornings making it an excellent meeting or study spot. The cinnamon buns are unparalleled in my opinion, flakey, buttery with just the right amount of sweetness. No espresso drinks, but their coffee is solid.

Used to love the dark roast coffee...last 2 times definitely different. Less boldness, flavor. I was reassured by staff the proportions had not changed. Tried again, weak again. Back to Coffee Exchange. Always good, every time.

It’s really rare that I leave a negative review, but the expensive cake slices we had at L’Artisan yesterday were freezer-burned to the point where one was completely inedible. I went back to ask for a different slice, which is bad considering I seriously never send anything back. The two staff who were there were super nice about it, which I definitely appreciated. The pastry I traded for was better, but still tasted like a dirty freezer. I was especially bummed to know they were frozen at all. I assumed that for the price ($20 for 2 cake slices) they would be freshly made. I highly recommend you skip this place and go to Madrid Bakery instead.

I was very disappointed in the desserts I ordered from this bakery. Looking at all the photos I was hoping for something amazing. The desserts were delivered frozen solid and weren't in great shape. The food looks amazing on the pictures. Please don't decide not to eat here because of one experience. Everyone has bad days.

Excellent place to go grab a salad/snack/sandwich and a coffee. I've had the lattes and the cappuccinos, which were both 10 out of 10 stars. The food options are vast, and everything is SO fresh. As you can see from my picture, the patio area is a very nice spot to hang out during the day.

Enjoyed an iced cappuccino and a lemon poppy seed muffin. Greeted by a friendly staff and service was great. Enjoyed my breakfast on the patio. Ample seating indoors and outdoors. I'll definitely visit again and maybe try lunch next time.

I honestly thought the chai latte was atrocious. Sickeningly sweet and very watery. I couldn’t even eat the tiramisu, it had no coffee fragrance whatsoever. Ended up throwing everything out. Not sure how it’s rated so highly, maybe I took the wrong things. Also, everything came in a plastic container even though I sat there and not to go. The premises are nice, however. There is an outdoor seating area and the staff are friendly. I’ll give them that. Otherwise, I truly wish I saved my 12$ for something else.

Very nice place to get some coffee and meetfriends. Wendy is the best, she always smiling and provides the best service.

Everybody here has a Im better than you attitud and bad costumer service. I got a pink drink with cold foam and a chocolate pop since they where out of the birthday one. I never new that was ready untill after waitimg for few minute I ask. They just drop drinks on the counter and I never heard my name. Since I dont know how the drinks look I had to ask. The preping area for the drinks was dirty with splashes of other drinks all over the place. The only reason why I came to strash bucks for the 3rd time in my life with the same experieexperience is because my daughter is hospitalized kn hasbro and she was craving this. Hopefully she will not ask for anymore of this unreasonable expensive place. April 6 2025 1:45 ish pm

Super packed the day that I went, but somehow it was the calmest Starbucks I’ve ever been to. This location seems perfectly staffed, and I love that the baristas don’t yell out names while people are studying. The warm moody lighting makes it a perfect addition to campus. Cutest Starbucks I’ve ever been to. Also!! Every time I see the lavender matcha it’s always gray and ugly and the cold foam ends up as a really thin layer. But at this location it was vibrant and had the perfect consistency! I love when baristas love to make drinks and do their best to make it work. With this particular drink it’s not realistic to expect this outcome every time, but I really appreciate the innovative approach that went into making the presentation as good as possible 🪻🍵

Best Starbucks in providence. No wait. Kind staff with funky decorative hat pins. No mugs at downtown Starbucks. This one has the collector cups. I would go back 💃

Honestly the best Starbucks I’ve been too I’m so thankful it’s on campus. Even though they are incredibly busy and probably stressed out college kids serving a ton of other stressed out college kids they are always extremely kind. They also make the best coffees

I am not a student at JWU, but I pick my husband up from work nearby, and this is a good place to kill time if necessary. I am always impressed by the friendliness, efficiency and proficiency of the staff; in fact, I have found that these students are better trained (and more polite) than at most regular Starbucks locations. Gets busy sometimes (I am guessing right before or after classes) but in between the rushes, it is actually pretty quiet, and it is usually filled with kids studying.

Staffs are professionally trained and always nice! Food and drinks are prepared in hygienic surroundings. Except specific times, there are a good amount of seats available and I love their big window seats

Even when it's busy there's never too long of a wait, if you go there past dinner time though expect them to not have any pastries available Edit: After a month I can say that there is a huge wait around 11, if you have classes then plan at least 15 minutes if you really need it If you like sweet things but don't know what to order I like getting an iced white chocolate mocha with a couple liquid sugars and whipped cream (yes I know how unhealthy that sounds)

They took two hours to deliver my food and he handed me a bag of utensils and an apple juice. I spent 50$ for a plastic fork, ketchup, a syrup packet, and juice. And then no one responded to help me or fix the issue. Update: Just heard from the delivery driver who said the restaurant was out of stock. I ordered an omelette, so they apparently have no eggs or cheese. No one contacted me to cancel or refund. The restaurant won’t answer the phone, after dozens of calls. Absolutely unacceptable service all around.

TLDR: The late night menu is 50% more expensive and they don't offer the standard menu until 7:00. We arrived at 5:40 and our orders were not taken until 6:10 am. That alone isn't a major issue but the menu we got was the late night menu, which understandably offers a limited menu from 10pm - 6am. Because we sat for longer than expected, we asked if we could have the full menus but they said they don't pull out the normal menus till 7:00 am, despite it being printed on the menu that it begins at 6:00 a.m. so we were stuck with ordering off the limited menu at prices that were 50% higher than standard. Our waitress was great but seems like they could use some standardization on the process.

All day breakfast restaurant and more. Lots of choices. Medium or large portions from some items like pancakes, you choose. Tasty food. Very polite helpful staff. Good coffee. Good presentation. Reasonable prices. High quality ingredients. Highly recommended.

Coffee was not hot very cold, no butter with pancakes 🥞, Fruit was fresh on French toast they were great 😊 Great place for quick bites or a nice dinner lunch, Noisy and very cold inside dress warmly

I was very disappointed when I walked in. It smelt dirty and like bug spray. Not like it used to be. Could use some TLC but the service was good and the food tasty but I probably won't go back there

Was seated beside children who were banging on the seat behind me and moving nonstop. Other than that, was fine. The parents weren't nice enough to make them stop. First time in RI.

I made an order through DoorDash and I asked for the meat well cooked and they sent it very rare. I also accompanied it with pancakes. I paid extra for tres leches and they sent them to me. I really will not buy anything from this place again. I am not happy with this order.

Amateur Bagels. Under risen usually. Muddy, heavy. Clearly no one making the dough, rising dough or baking has enough experience. Even frozen bagels from Queens or Brooklyn are better than this.

I'm really picky about bagels since getting bagels in NY, and this is the only bagel place I go to in RI. I prefer this location over the other one as well. There hasn't been a bagel or cream cheese flavor I haven't liked. My go to's are poppy seed, pumpernickel, and if they have it, honey wheat Sunflower seed. I used to get vegan spread and avocado, but now I get the bacon scallion cream cheese. I recently tried the garden veggie cream cheese, which was recommended to me and was really good. The staff is always friendly and efficient, even though it's often packed inside. I also recommend the caramel iced latte.

I ordered bagels online from this place, and was extremely disappointed upon their arrival. Today, I ordered 6 bagels, as well as a container of plain cream cheese. 2 of the bagels never made it into the bag, and their cream cheese tastes sour, almost rancid. The bagels were all supposed to be sliced and toasted, but they couldn't even do that right. They WERE sliced, however very unevenly, and none of them toasted. The last time, about a week ago, I asked for 2 bagels with cream cheese ON THE SIDE so I would be able to save them for another day, but that request was completely ignored. Instead of being able to toast up a bagel, all fresh and warm, I had soggy bagels waiting for me in the fridge. This may not be a big deal to a lot of people, but it still goes to show that there is a lack of effort and attention to detail. It was a very simple request, and it was not honored. On top of all of this, their bagels are extremely dense and taste a day old. Overall: Bad bagels. Bad cream cheese. Bad service. GET YOUR BAGELS ELSEWHERE.

I absolutely love Providence Bagel! The bagels are always fresh, chewy, and full of flavor — exactly what a bagel should be. They have such a great variety, and the cream cheese and sandwich options make it easy to find something new every time I go. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere is casual but inviting perfect whether I’m grabbing breakfast on the go or sitting down with a coffee. Service is quick, and I really appreciate that they put care into both the food and the customer experience. Providence Bagel is definitely my go-to spot for breakfast or lunch.

This has to be one of the worst, if not the worst drive-thru in Providence. The staff is great and the food is good, but the drive-thru itself is unbelievably slow and inefficient. It regularly takes several minutes longer than it should, even with only one or two cars ahead. I sent an email about this before, but it was never acknowledged or replied to. That time it took around 15–20 minutes from ordering to driving away, and today, with an almost empty drive-thru, it still took over 10 minutes just to get a simple bagel sandwich. They really need to step their game up

Very impressed by the egg sandwich I got. With my RI Food Fights coupon, I ordered their spicy sunrise egg sandwich on a sesame bagel. I loved the combination of sausage, a hash brown patty with some hot honey. Was a good size too. Normally $8

Great place for a great fresh baked bagel! Alexis and the crew are like coffee in the morning. They are always friendly and welcoming. They're quite knowledgeable and a great local company that I think we should all support!
