“Loved this spot. Super nice employees and enjoyed a Hot Lavender Haze Matcha so much!“

“Just visited for the first time, and it was worth the trip from the other end of the state! Delicious food, nice people, can't wait to come back!“

“Wonderful place to eat the best Middle Eastern food in RI , they also have some outstanding deserts, I would recommend this place for sure“

“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“

“Popped into this café this morning with my family and was pleasantly surprised at their selection of croissants available. Giant gourmet croissants. I had the pistachio croissant and the filling was absolutely delectable, very nice texture and not too sweet. My husband had the chocolate croissant and he said it was delicious. Our little one loved the matcha cookie. My favorite was their iced matcha with almond milk, very nice that they offered matcha! The owner was very kind and you can tell the staff really values their customers’ experience.“

“What a gem! I got Lavender Fields and it was beautiful and so unique. Pastries were good too. But look at the decor! I have never been to a coffee shop like this. They offered to make my take-out coffee for someone else after I finished my own. Owner chatted with me a bit and gave me recommendations on where to visit in Providence. Top notch service. Short 5 minute walk from Veterans Memorial Auditorium.“

“Best waffle I have ever eaten!“

“I visited on a work/leisure trip and had read about this shop in barista magazine and I’m soooo glad I stopped. The oat cappuccino was delicious and beautiful. I highly recommend the chicken salad sandwich or lentil bowl for lunch! I didn’t get to have any pastries but have no doubt they’re just as good. Wish I had more time to stay longer because it was just great! The staff is sweet and have great anticipatory service skills. You can tell these folks know what they’re doing!“

“Everything here is delicious and the staff are really nice. Not a ton of seating, but it works, usually there's a spot for two, harder if you have a larger party. I would tell you my favorite food here but sometimes they sell it out so I won't mention it! Let's just say they have some extremely delicious things in their menu and it's worth exploring!“

“love this place. my only advice is make more bakery items because any time you go past like 11 or noon almost everything is sold out :(“

“Excellent stuffed cabbage for lunch today at the Exchange St.Cafe. Highly recommended. Ate 1/3 at lunch, saving the rest for later meals. Can't wait!“

“Truly an incredible place with even more lovely people. Places like this are what keep our city wholesome. And of course they have tasty yums and bevs“

“The food is so good.

The place is always busy but the staff is very attentive and gets your order in and serves quickly.

The atmosphere is quaint and you don't even feel like you're in a store front space“

“Went in with the Mrs for the 1st time and it didn’t disappoint!! Customer service 10 out of 10, Our meals were DELICIOUS and looking forward to going back again.“

“I had a great experience here. The staff were super sweet and everything I ordered was great. I got a latte and a pumpkin muffin. The muffin was super moist, not too sweet, and definitely tasted homemade. The latte was delicious. The prices are super reasonable. They also have lots of great seating. Highly recommend.“

“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. ❤️“

“So this morning I go to get a breakfast sandwich and was introduced to a new feature. The operator of the cafe' has made Raised Donuts. She gave me the flavors and I chose the Maple Bacon Donut. WOW! Great job! Well done! This is an excellent addition to your menu for those looking for a little sweet. All the best!“

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

“Went to Dough Bros for the first time today and I was very impressed! Shop was very nicely decorated and comfortable. Service was excellent, they were patient with my excited kids and the prices were so much better than similar shops. Most importantly for me with my kids - it was EASY. Similar shops in the area have challenging parking, super crowded areas and are tough with littles. This was perfect. Got the doughnuts home and they were outstanding!“

“Great food best omelets ever!! Never disappoints. Ok maybe one thing… sometimes runs out of fruit crepes…. Lol Love you guys!!!“

“great food and drinks and amazing service . amazing ownership“

“It's great to see the Xo Bar open again! It was always one of our top lounges to go to back in the early 2000s! Now its even better with the new hang out lounge area! It's so hard to find a nice place with cozy couches in RI. It has a great set up and friendly service! We will be back!!“

“I want to say the food is great and Tammy is a pleasant woman. She is a very hard worker and will do anything for the customers. The other woman I feel like she just seats around.“

“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.“

“I have driven by this place so many times and finally stopped for the first time yesterday. Amazing! I had a cinammon raisin bagel with maple walnut cream cheese and a toasted turtle iced coffee. So incredibly good. Please support this local business!!“

“Always fresh food and friendly service. I have been a customer since it opened.“

“The coffee and atmosphere were amazing! Highly recommend this spot.“

“The best shawarma with garlic sauce you can find in Rhode Island!!!!!!“

“Very good coffee and environment ♥️“

“Good food, cute environment, kind staff!“

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

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

“Healthy & Fit Nutrition is by far the best herb-a-life shake around. Tons of protein, low calorie and the taste is amazing! Not to mention the TONS of different flavors to choose from. Z, the owner, welcomes everyone with a smile, and is a friendly environment!“

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

“The employees are very friendly and welcoming! Love the smoothie of the day!“

“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 heard great things about this place across social media so I figured I'd give it a try and was a big let down. I ordered the #2 Breaded chicken cutlet with pink vodka sauce topped with provolone cheese. The bread was chewy as if it came out of microwave, I got mozzarella instead of provolone, the chicken was rubbery and dry (almost no pink vodka sauce), also mushrooms somehow made their way onto my sandwich. My girlfriend got the #10 The Tuscany breaded chicken cutlet with fresh mozzarella, sautéed mushrooms, and finished with a sun-dried tomato cream dressing. She received VERY hard bread, no chicken, got prosciutto, no mushrooms, had balsamic dressing instead of the sun-dried tomato cream dressing and some type of mixed greens. Unfortunately the food and accuracy of the order was very poor and I could not recommend this place. Neither of us could finish half the sandwich. Very disappointing.“

“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.“

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

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

“We visited the RISD Museum location on a quiet Sunday morning; since not many cafes are open before 1000 on a Sunday, this was our closest choice. This little cafe is quaint, with some good coffee and interesting tea options. Of note, the chinese black tea surprisingly was really good. The pastries are good, but not as fresh as you would expect.“

“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!“

“I'm biased being as I'm the owner. I believe our coffee is the best in town and fresher since we deal with a local roaster in Providence. No sweet flavor shots here; the flavored coffee we sell has the flavor roasted into the beans. Many people do not know we are located inside the Attleboro Commuter Station. We sell coffee as well as a variety of snacks, muffins, and pastries. You can buy train tickets from us and we help maintain the station and restrooms as well. Come in and see us: we'd love to get to know you!“

“My family and I recently visited the RISD Museum in Rhode Island, and it was a memorable experience. After enjoying the impressive art collections, we decided to grab some drinks from Cafe Pearl. We ordered a mocha latte, an Americano, and a hot chocolate.

However, when I tried to pay, my credit card was declined multiple times since it wasn’t a US card. I only had enough cash to cover the hot chocolate. I asked the staff to cancel the rest of the order, but to our surprise, they generously told us not to worry and gave us the mocha and Americano for free.

Their kindness truly made our visit special. Thank you.“

“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!“

“AMAZING...A wonderful surprise! New here in town, headed for a different Cafe but got lost. What a great find, instead: food, service and atmosphere top shelf! May have been a mistaken find, but will be a must have when ever in town.“

“Love all Seasons Cafe excellent iced coffees, sandwiches are so good and the best Watermelon lemonade ❤️“

“If you want a taste of real coffee, this is the place to go! The environment is very calming and beautiful with lots of photos and memories all around, the atmosphere is very friendly, and to top it off, the coffee is amazing, and it tastes incredible! I only ordered a cappuccino, and it is the best coffee I think I ever had. This place is open for only a few hours in the morning but just staying there for 10 minutes made me enjoy the whole day!“

“Fresh, fresh food! Egg and cheese with sausage patty was like from the farm. Next time I'm lost in Providence I'll ask for directions to small point Electronic walking directions city wide are useless.“
