50 Best Cafes near Barrington

“Overall very good food, chefs are great. Summer hires are rude and impatient however. So just “for future reference”: The line gets crowded quickly, small place. To avoid the staff becoming frustrated with you, make sure to: 1) Pick your menu items quickly and 2) pick drinks quickly, and if they are from fridge take drinks with you to final register If you do not do this, you may be called out in public by folks at register, and it can be a little embarrassing. Check menu online and know what you want before you go and you should have a good experience!“

“Great food and an assortment of tasty desserts! Trendy atmosphere and service with a smile!“

“Food is excellent. Portion sizes are healthy. For example the veal parmesan with linguini feeds both me and my husband. I haven't tried anything as of yet that I didn't like. Everything is cooked fresh“

“First time try…. played it safe, and got my ice caramel latte, although they had so many specialty coffee’s that I was tempted to try. Owner and or employee recognized we were new faces and asked if it was our first time. When I said yes he handed me a free large sample of their “OG” which was very good, and I would def go back for or try another specialty! Customer service experiences like this are always huge for me and also if your a plant person and love coffee this is the place for you!“

“Went on google maps looking for a little breakfast spot. Found this gem. Nothing bad to say. Crepes were a perfect balance of all ingredients. Golden Latte hit the spot. Atmosphere was the right amount of cozy and inviting blended with bright and cheerful. Definitely worth the stop.

P.S. if you look at posted menus here beforehand- there are no waffles. ;)“

“went for the first time today for a breakfast sandwich. What a hidden gem we found!! We will definitely be back again and probably sooner rather then later!! Staff was very friendly, sandwich was excellent and the cafe is cute. Give it a try, you won't be sorry!!“

“Absolutely love this coffee shop! From the moment you walk in, the cozy atmosphere makes you feel right at home. The baristas are friendly and knowledgeable, always eager to recommend something new or tailor a drink to your taste. The coffee is top-notch—smooth, rich, and perfectly brewed every time. I particularly enjoy their signature lattes and the selection of freshly baked pastries that pair beautifully with the drinks. The seating area is comfortable, with a nice mix of quiet corners for working and a lively vibe for socializing. Whether you’re grabbing a quick cup or settling in for a while, it’s always a pleasant experience. Highly recommend!“

“Went for lunch today and Everything was so delicious ! Best quiche I’ve ever had and the Kale salad and poutine were awesome . Highly recommend“

“Awesome Lil place, staff was nice and friendly, waffle dessert was awesome! can't go wrong If you are a waffle fan and Sweet Yummy desserts! highly recommended“

“Awesome espresso martinis!“

“Yummy chai lattes and delicious breakfast sandwiches. 🙂👍🙂“

“First off, let’s start with the space. I’m visiting from a big cityyy so my expectations can be a little high — but this place is absolutely breathtaking. The vibe is cozy, upscale, and still relaxed enough to just kick back and enjoy. It feels refreshing and thoughtfully designed without trying too hard.

Bianca, the bartender who helped me out, was incredible. She has such a well-crafted, extensive specialty knowledge and was amazing at guiding me through the menu when my indecisiveness kicked in (which happens often). She’s relatable, friendly, a little edgy in the best way, and the space felt very queer-friendly and welcoming because of that energy. I’m already looking forward to coming back and chatting it up with B again.

Only small con: the payment process. It would be a nice upgrade to have handheld devices so guests don’t have to give up their phones to close out. Small detail, but it would elevate the experience even more.

Overall, a fantastic spot and definitely worth visiting.“

“We just came by boat with two little kids not realizing the new fall hours. The employee working saw them peaking into the window and was so kind bringing them each out doughboy donuts. It was such a generous and thoughtful gesture that truly made these two little kids day! We look forward to coming again in the spring (during hours your open)“

“Best coffee in town with very friendly and knowledgeable owners. You will not be disappointed. New to Providence or just visiting, enjoy a cup of coffee and get great suggestions on what to see and do. They are supporters of local artisans for all your souvenir needs. Can’t say enough good things about this place. ❤️“

“excellent light fare, fast service... going there again this week.“

“The Watermark Cafe is RISD (Rhode Island School of Design) owned dining venue. Though many RISD students come here regularly, the general public seem to always drop by and enjoy toasty treats and healthy meals. The cafe serves excellent fresh sandwiches, wraps, burritos, soups, salads, fruit, local yogurt, organic smoothies, espresso drinks, fair trade coffee, and organic tea. A lot of the stuff is kept local, organic, and healthy-conscious.“

“One of the best little surprises around. Food and deserts are great, drinks are awesome. My smash burger was out of this world. Service 5 star.“

“Absolutely delicious food. Large portions, excellent service. I highly recommend!“

“Stopped by for RI food fights and both the coffee and the food was delicious. Our barista was super friendly too. Highly recommend the cinnabon iced coffee and the breakfast burrito. The burrito was super fresh and had this amazing crema on it. I also had an egg and cheese that you could tell was super fresh. The atmosphere of this place was so cute too. Super cute chairs, decor, and great music. A must try Providence cafe. Definitely check them out!“

“best breakfast sandwiches and bagels in the state! 💯❤️“

“Oh I loved the atmophere. Clean, cozy, comfortable... good food. But my passion for cats, anomals said i have to see this place.. so surprised how any one could complain about anything..people were also there in a room for a book club. What a great idea. So i voluntered. No pay, just want to be with the kittys... loved the serenity of the place. Now i can love all the cats I want.. stop by,, a nice surprise... maybe see you there. The counter where the food is ordered is a bit further back to the right. Hard to see, but stop by.. nice change, too.“

“I absolutely LOVE Pinku. Upon entering, everything is pink and cutesy! There's free wifi. They offer coffee, many boba flavors and a wide, ever-changing selection of deliciously creative mochi donuts! (which are lighter than regular donuts and super addictive...) Plenty of good deals offered in-store, on coupons, as well as the Too Good To Go app. This location also has a coin-operated claw machine with super cute plushies you can win! It has quickly become one of my favorite spots to grab a regular coffee or coffee boba and donuts by the half dozen!“

“My new favorite martini spot!“

“Fantastic. They made me the best iced mocha I've had since I've been back in the US, exactly to order, and the bagels are great. They have less wasteful packaging than most places these days, too; not super-eco, but they haven't completely given up, like most coffee places in New England. And there are lots of places to plug in a laptop and chill by a window. I'll definitely be back.

Parking: I don't think this is a driving neighbourhood.

Wheelchair accessibility: The building is a bit of a rabbit warren, alongside a bit of a hill—there may be wheelchair access, but it isn't obvious.“

“I was a bit early for my train. Decided to grab a coffee, added a grill cheese to enjoy. They are very nice and friendly and the grill cheese made me dance of joy. 5 🌟“

“Gorgeous Brown University student-run cafe and bakery. They make fantastic coffee and tea. They make bao on Mondays and kabob and curry other days. Muffins are delicious. Overall a really good place to have a snack or a meal and enjoy with a friend or alone!“

“Fun friendly place to meet your friends for a drink prior to your evening plans or afterwards for a night cap. The bartenders are the best in the State but beware they won't let you overr do it. But hey that's their job. One thing I know is they'll be open during all hurricanes or snowstorms“

“This is my favorite corner of Brown. The baristas, the food, the atmosphere are unbeatable! Shoutout especially to the fantastic and talented Tevah!!! Make sure to pay a visit when you find yourself walking through campus or attend one of the many awesome events hosted there.“

“The Staff is amazing and the food is great! My favorite place of all the great sandwich shops that participated in the #BestsandwichRI Showdown.“

“One of my favorite coffee shops in the country, loveee their breakfast sandwiches ♥️, and the cortado is a must!“

“EVERYTHING is amazing!!! Coffee, pastries, staff, environment, culture, all top notch.“

“convenient and great staff“

“Prepare for the most delicious smoothie of your life! This place is run by a sweet doña with the kindest smile. The name caught me and I had to go inside. It's very bright and colorful inside and they have a ton of beverage options. They also have like 20 topping options for your drink! I will definitely going back. I am very glad that I found a banh mi place and a smoothie place on the same block!“

“The breakfast sandwich on a fresh biscuit was one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've had in Providence! I'd recommend that you pay the extra $2.00 for the biscuit upgrade and not skimp; it makes a big difference. My friend ordered the breakfast sandwich on an English muffin and it was good, but not quite as good as on the biscuit. The coffee here is also excellent. If you're planning to stay at the cafe, you should know that it can be tough to get a table. A lot of customers seem to study or work here for extended periods, so tables only infrequently become available. I'd recommend ordering your food and drink to go by default whenever you visit; you can always nab a table if you're lucky enough to have one become available while you wait for your order.“

“What an incredible unbelievable experience after a tough night with my two year old, I was ready for a cup of coffee in the morning, so I got into my car and I looking for a place completely oblivious that I wasn’t carrying my wallet and Harborside Café me a huge favor give me a coffee give me warm And lots of cheer and smile. What a wonderful experience God bless the whole team at Harborside.“
