50 Best Coffee Shops in Providence

“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 vibe was really great. Definitely a great place to relax whether inside or outside. I enjoyed the Iced Brown Sugar Vanilla Latte. The bacon & egg sandwich was good, but it was missing something. The roasted red pepper sauce put it over the top! Definitely recommend to try with the sandwiches.“

“Sit, sip and chill…fast and friendly service…safe space…can’t wait to go back tomorrow…gracias 😋☕️“

“The Coffee Cup at Providence Mall is a hidden gem! It's the perfect spot to take a break during a shopping trip. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and they make some of the best coffee in the area. I love their wide variety of drinks—whether you’re in the mood for a classic latte, a cold brew, or something more unique, they’ve got you covered. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it a great place to relax for a bit.“

“Incredible staff. Incredible environment. Incredible seating. Incredible chai latte. Incredible undertoes. And the most incredible company. Truly incredible. 11/10 would recommend.“

“Very good coffee and environment ♥️“

“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. ❤️“

“Freakin’ awesome coffee & wraps! Stopped over in Providence for a night and this place was across the street and recommended by our host. We had the maple sea salt latte (1 iced, 1 hot with oat milk), breakfast wrap and chorizo & salsa verde wrap. Amazing flavors in everything and made our lazy morning perfect. We’ve already decided it’s our go to place whenever we’re anywhere near Providence. We may even take a detour! It was that good 😊“

“Fantastic coffee and tea. Great spot! All the drinks are level and horizontal to the flat earth.“

“The best coffee I’ve had! Even after tasting many local roasters in other parts of the US, I always return back to Queen Bean 💕“

“Delicious iced mocha. Cute place. Worth the visit.“

“As a non-coffee drinker, I’m surprised how frequently I come here. However, their cinnamon rolls are AMAZING! I work nearby and will probably gain a few pounds from their great pastries (but it will be worth it). They also have a good juice selection and their staff is super friendly.“

“I went to several businesses around where I live and the iced coffee is hit or miss. Today in particular I went to two places and the iced coffee was just absolutely garbage. One place the ice coffee tasted old, other one had a very strange taste. I drove down to Coffee Connection and they never miss. The ice coffee today was just as perfect as it always is. I just wish it was closer to my house. The staff is always very polite. 5 Stars!!!!!“

“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!“

“The vibe is gorgeous! Well-rounded coffee shop with attentive service.

I tried the Spanish Latte, which was great — though I didn’t taste the condensed milk until the last few sips, so up until that point, it tasted like a regular latte with (good) espresso, just no flavor. Would still order again in hopes of a better blend & try it iced!

The croissant I got was fresh, plain-and-buttery, massive, and abundant in soft flaky layers.

Their onsite merch is excellent quality too, and the aesthetic they’ve built for their shop makes it easy to want to purchase and reflect the brand.

Excited to return… perhaps on a weekend where I can try their breakfast sandwich… but the croissant bread pudding also sounds delicious… stay tuned!“

“My favorite place for coffee (latte) and bagels. Rania is the best. Lunch stuff in the fridge. �� Would love a mimosa…hint hint….�“

“Everything is delicious, beautiful cafeteria with authentic Spanish bakery! I recommend you to try! 5 ⭐️“

“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“

“Whenever I am in Providence, I make sure to go to In the Pink, I LOVE their pitaya & açaí bowls and customize it each time, Hailey is always so helpful! Just this week I had their new fall apple smoothie. I also go to Clark Farms every time they are in South County and recruit my friends each weekend. Amazing!“

“I've recently travelled from England to visit a friend in Rhode Island. She purchased one of your cakes as a welcome cake a cute one with bees on it and also some chocolate chip cookies. The cake was absolutely amazing and is by far the best I have ever tasted. The cookies were great too.“

“Quick service, decent latte. I ordered a pretzel chocolate croissant as well - croissant was flakey and light, the pretzel/saltiness paired well with the not too sweet chocolate in a well balanced combo.

I would definitely stop in again and try out their other bakery items.

There is a small parking lot behind the bakery with a couple of spots as well as street parking available.“

“Caffe Nero is so cute, and everything is fantastic! Came here twice during my vacation, and the drinks were amazing and so was the food. The line can get a little long, but that is because the barista’s take their time actually crafting your drink and not just throwing it together like at Starbucks. All the pastries and sandwiches are so fresh and delicious. I wish I lived here so I could keep coming back!!“

“I hear the breakfast and lunch are highly rated. But it seems less well known that the dinner experience is also excellent. Beautifully prepared and delicious food served in an eclectic library setting. It's almost like being at someone's house. And all for a good cause as people learn the restaurant business. Bit of a hidden gem which deserves to succeed wildly.“

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

“I like the recent update with the comfortable furniture and design. It makes a difference if you're sitting for a while. Just wish they could dim the light a bit near the fireplace. The outside patio is always nice in the warmer weather. Food/service is decent.“

“Love the friendliness, Love my Frapps and iced coffees !!“

“My boyfriend and I were looking for a breakfast place on Sunday, but were trying to avoid long wait times. We stumbled across Caspian and gave it a try. It was quiet inside but it felt really homey. We ordered a bunch of food and drinks and everything was AMAZING. Everything felt deliciously homemade and I like how authentic this place feels. Everything was crazy cheap here too, well worth the trip!!!“

“I visited New Harvest Coffee Roasters for the first time last week with my ICED COFFEE Summer Celebration coupon from RI Food Fights. This is my 4th July using these coupons and although I’ve seen the New Harvest coupon in prior years, I never used it. How sad, because it was one of my top 3 coffees this July! I only drink Decaf and the barista was kind enough to make me an Iced Decaf Americano. Delicious. I also snuck a sip of their cold brew (Yumm!) Cant wait to come back here with my husband.“

“Had not been to this Dunkin in awhile, it is a completely different experience; it has been fully remodeled, ordered the avocado toast along with coffee and donut- toast was next level; donut super fresh. Tipped because I felt like it, service was fast, friendly, great to see smiles and get a genuine good morning!“

“You can’t go wrong with Starbucks. This location is great, the coffee is excellent.“

“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.“

“I had an amazing experience at this cafe! The French toast sticks were absolutely delicious—crispy on the outside, perfectly soft inside. A huge shoutout to Charles for their incredible cooking skills. The service was also top-notch, with Miguel and Jasmine at the front of house making me feel so welcome and cared for. Highly recommend this spot for great food and friendly service!“

“The people are wonderful here although I wish they offered a blueberry Scones or rotated their pastries a little more often to offer some new things once in a while.They used to have vanilla scones, and now they got rid of them.I think they only have ginger scones now..
But the queen aman is great.
You have to pick a not burnt one, though sometimes they're a little overdone.
I cannot say enough about the staff friendly, i'm a bend over backwards to please you...
And if you ever have a problem, ask for one of the managers, there's two girls.They will rectify your problem
No questions asked they are phenomenal!!!!
They could and should hold national conferences
In leadership to teach other managers How it's done👍“

“Amazing peanutbutter brownies! Nice gals.“

“convenient and great staff“

“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.“

“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.“

“Sue and her work fam.r the best at D.D.on MANTON AVE. Providence R.l. ���“

“I always have a great experience at this Dunkin' location! The staff is friendly, quick, and gets my order right every time. The store is clean, the mobile ordering makes pick-up super easy, and the coffee is always fresh. Big shoutout to the team for keeping things running smoothly even during busy hours. Definitely my go-to spot for a coffee fix!“

“Great food and service. I got some boba there and I couldn’t help myself but get another! I highly recommend Kung Fu Tea for my tea lovers out there. Atmosphere was very fitting and calm and the costumers seemed very happy. Clearly a 5 star tea house. Also- very cheap items for low spenders!

Kid-friendliness: Lots of kids here! They seemed very kind and were very helpful peaceful. They did not cause a scene. Take your kids here! It is an amazing place to relax with toddlers!!“

“I was impressed with how well the crew works together. Its refreshing to walk into a place where the employees are genuinely happy, quick and courteous. Its hard to find good crews. I hope their manager appreciates them. I will gladly return.“

“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.“

“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.“

“LaSalle has some excellent desserts and sandwiches. Because of this, the place gets REALLY packed on weekends, and so it's not the best spot for sitting down to enjoy your food because it's do noisy. They also seem up be short staffed, so be prepared to wait about 20 minutes to get your order filled.“

“always get a great coffee and service“

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

“Love Sawyers! Favorite time to go there is early evening for a glass of wine and some aperitif. Sandwiches are great quality and freshly made. They are filling but not too heavy end your day at lunch. We recently tried their amazing breakfast sandwich. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable about their offerings. Worth picking their brain about wine selection, they know their stuff. Their dinner pop ups are worth going out of your way for too! Great neighborhood spot, thrilled it’s there!“

“Always great coffee, food, and ice cream! Perfect stop on a spring day.“

“Love the service

Kid-friendliness: My son loves the burritos he gets one every morning and I get a ice tea with lemon which Dunkin no longer have lemon very good service didn't have to wait I would recommend honey dew to everyone“
