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!“

“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. ;)“

“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“

“We ate here for the first time today around lunchtime. We were in an area unfamiliar to us, saw 9 Twenty, took a look at the menu and decided to drop in. It was an excellent decision. Both my wife and I ordered from the daily specials. My wife had an avacado toast covered with a mound of elote and other items. Very good. I tried something I've never tried before: fried cachupa. Fantastic decision - it came with pickled onions, fried cheese, fried salami, and two eggs. I still have the leftovers and am looking forward to them. The fried cachupa was really good and I hope we can get back up here for another breakfast or brunch.“

“Had a great flat white here. The breakfast sandwich was good; I didn’t request any add-ons and if you’re looking for a bit more flavor, I’d definitely recommend adding something like avocado and greens. Don’t get anxious if your coffee is ready 10 mins before your food, the staff didn’t forget your food, the breakfast sandwiches just take a bit of time to prep. I’m looking forward to coming back here“

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

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. ❤️“

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

“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!“

“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 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!!“

“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.“

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

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

“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 experience We ran a fundraiser and the people, food & drinks were absolutely incredible . Highly recommended. Donna the bartender gave such a wonderful experience Thank you so much for the wonderful service“

“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.“

“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 🌟“

“I just had my first experience at Caffe Bon Ami. The owner was so welcoming and immediately knew it was my first time in- seemingly because he knows his patrons. He asked me many questions to ensure my coffee was perfect. He’s been “doing what he does,” for 31 years and it shows in the product.“

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

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

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“Neat. Excellent coffee in real ceramic mugs. Expresso served correctly, wow, haven't seen that in a long time. Glass of double expresso on a little tray, WITH a spoon AND a little glass of sparkling water WITH a lemon slice in it. Perfect. Hurrah finally expresso served correctly.“

“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.“

“Great food and great prices. Friendly atmosphere. My go to for breakfast“

“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.“
