Great place for a breakfast sandwich that hits the spot. The shop is small with a few seats inside but it gets crowded fast. If you can, it's best to order ahead online, otherwise there can be a long wait, especially on weekends. The Sunday Sandwich was great. Order the sauce on the side if you want the hashbrown to stay crisp. The sandwich is indulgent and satisfying. Our only change would be if the bread could be crisper or slightly more toasted to contrast the rest of the textures in the sandwich. Overall, a solid spot!
Came to Amy's for Sunday brunch and had a delicious meal! I got the Chive On (scrambled eggs, chives, hash brown, cream cheese, sriracha honey on a bolo) and Matcha Smoothie (matcha powder, mango, banana, spinach, oat milk, coconut milk, honey). Loved the subtle sweetness from the bolo bun contrasted with the savoriness of the eggs, chives, and cream cheese. Also thought the smoothie was really well-balanced and had the perfect consistency and amount of sweetness. Service did take at least 40 minutes, but it was peak weekend rush hour so understandable. There's a good amount of tables indoor and outdoor, but lots of traffic so you could consider taking out to the nearby park. 10/10 would recommend!
Maybe my expectations were a little high going in. After all, I've heard so many great things. Don't get me wrong, it's good! Potentially a little over hyped though. First, a warning. Do not wait inside for your food unless you want to smell like a deep fryer. The smoke from the kitchen grill permeates the whole place and you will leave smelling like you got off a 8 hour line cook shift. This place is pretty inexpensive. Seeing that I should have known better, but boy this was a sandwich for ants. Don't expect to come here and get full unless you get at least 2 of these if you have any kind of appetite. The bolo was nice. Soft, could have been a little more toasted IMO, but what was going on inside was better: pickled onion, cheese, egg, avocado and hot sauce. Texturally it was good (crisper bolo would have been a nice break from all the soft), the spinach helps a little with that, lending some crisp. Flavor was on point, the acidic and tart bite was really nice and very familiar for me because I lean into these flavors with my home cooking. Just know what you're getting when you come here. It's a simple breakfast sandwich shop and if you have those expectations, you'll love it. If you love cheffing up breakfast sandwiches at home, I'd probably pass.
Back on the RI Food Fights #BestBreakfastSandwich trail, we stopped at Amy's Place in Fox Point. This tiny breakfast spot was packed! And for good reason - the food is delicious & comforting, worth every minute of the wait. We took our sandwiches to go. I selected the Sunday Sandwich: egg, american, bacon, hash brown, spicy aioli, guacamole, greens and tomato on a bolo. That's their description... this is mine: crispy bacon, a perfectly cooked egg, melted American cheese, fresh tomato & lettuce, creamy guac, a golden hash brown & a punchy garlic aioli, all piled onto a fluffy Portuguese bolo roll. It is the kind of sandwich you dream about after a long week. Yes, it's that good! Hubby selected The Hangover: egg, cheddar, bacon, spinach, sautéed onion, guacamole & hot sauce on a bolo. It absolutely lives up to its name - bold, satisfying & exactly what you want when you need a serious breakfast reset! Amy's isn't just about the sandwiches, either. The coffee is excellent, the smoothies are fresh & flavorful, burgers & tacos are unique creations. Everything comes out with that made-with-care feel that keeps you coming back for more. The space itself is small with limited indoor & outdoor seating, so it can get crowded pretty quickly. Pro tip: ordering ahead makes things much smoother if you are short on time. Perfect for small groups of two to four to dine in & anyone who plans ahead to takeout, Amy's Place continues to earn its reputation as one of Providence's best breakfast spots & a definite must-stop on the RI Food Fights trail!

My friend and I came here on a weekend to grab, what we thought would be a "quick bite," but it ended up being a 25 ish minute wait. They were transparent about the wait - there was a sign and they told us before placing our order. The inside is small, but despite that, they are able to seat about 8-10 people between the high tables and the high chairs facing the windows. The menu is well organized and offers breakfast and brunch type foods - breakfast burritos and tacos, sandwiches, burgers, and the typical breakfast - eggs, bacon, potatoes. I was hungry and wanted something filling, so I decided to go with their burger. I was originally intending on getting Amy's burger, but I wanted cheddar instead, so I built my own burger. My friend had a sausage egg and cheese, with a latte. We waited inside, and then took the food to the car after. The burger was tasty, and still pretty juicy. The toppings were fresh and the cheese was perfectly melted. The bun was soft on the outside, but crispy on the inside. I loved the sauce, I wish there was more of it for additional flavor. You could ask for a double patty but I am glad I stuck with one; It was thick enough and allowed the rest of the flavors to be present. For $7, it was a good burger.
The best breakfast/brunch spot in the area! It was my first time checking out Amy's Place and everything I got was above and beyond my expectations. They stop their food menu around 1pm on Saturdays and I made it just in the neck of time. The staff was patient and was happy to take my order, I got there just 3 mins before they stopped their food menu and put my order in right away and they were very accommodating. The breakfast sandwiches are amazing. I also got the Amy's burger and it has a nice kick to it. You can also add in a side of fries. The chai latte was amazinnnngggg! I was pleasantly shocked since I'm a big coffee lover - it did not disappoint. There's indoor and some outdoor seating and the service was quick.
We finally had the pleasure of trying Amy's last week! I think you should just come on over and check it out. I know a thing or two about breakfast sandwiches and it's CLEAR that the Amy's team does too. Great ingredients. Great ratios. Texturally sound. The cold brew was NOT too strong. Amen.
I visited Amy's Place this past weekend to grab breakfast with a friend! On a Saturday morning, this place was PACKED out the door. Customers zooming in and out to pick up their orders and sitting all around the tables of the small location. It was about a 30 minute wait after we ordered so it's good to stop and shop by the local businesses in the area. We split the Hash It Out with bacon and The Hangover. Each sandwich has ingredients which compliment each other. Super delicious. Those sandwiches + the smoothies we had made me super full and satisfied. Make sure to add hot sauce for that extra kick! I wouldn't have this every weekend, but it was nice to try and I'd come back to try their other sandwich options.
This was my first time at Amy's and wow! Their breakfast sandwiches are amazing! You can tell the show is loved because it was packed and people were willing to wait 30 minutes for food and beverage. And I can see why---it's amazing! I placed my order, walked around the neighborhood to shop, and came back. I hear they are opening a Newport location and I am very excited for that! I think the space will be a bit bigger and it will be closer to me! :)
My first bite of food into the food scene in Providence and I fell in love. The sandwich in 30 degree weather was a great bite to start out my day. Though it might have been a mistake to grab a smoothie in the cold weather on a warmer day it would have paired better. The smoothie was fresh and very customizable. The only down side is the wait. The wait was about 20 minutes for my order since it was quite busy for 9 am. The sauce paired well with the protein and the portion was great. I can see why there was a massive line outside the door for this hidden local spot. The staff were also friendly and had great recommendations.
Cute cafe that was completely packed on a Saturday afternoon. The counter had a sign that warned the wait for food would be 25-30 minutes. We scored a table inside, away from the beating sun, and decided to stay despite the wait. The space is small with a handful of tables and a long counter, although there are quite a few tables outside. I ordered the banana pancakes, breakfast burrito, house burger, iced chai and tropical smoothie. The drinks were both delicious, I especially loved the iced chai. The burger was good, as were the pancakes. However, the breakfast burrito was nothing to write home about. It was just average and I definitely won't order it again. Overall, a great place to take a break and grab a bite. I won't go out of my way to go though. read more

One of my favorite breakfast and brunch places ever! Everything is always delicious and comes out quickly. I love all of their smoothies and but my favorite sandwich is the hangover. A must try! read more
I've been wanting to try Amy's Place for awhile but they are always so packed and they never have their ordering for pick up on. Well, finally I was able to place a take out order on a Sunday around noon and it took about 30 minutes but it was well worth the wait. My wife and I ordered two breakfast sandwiches and they were absolutely delicious. I ordered their Vermont sandwich which had scrambled eggs, hash brown, sausage, and cheese, with maple aioli in a wrap. The cheese was perfectly melted, the hash brown gave it a slight crispness, and the maple aioli added a tasty sweetness. My wife ordered the bacon, egg, and cheese on a bolo and added the maple aioli to it. The bacon was crispy and juicy. It was like they made the perfect sandwiches for us without us telling them how we like it. When I picked up my order, there was a long line. This place is definitely popular and for good reason. We will definitely be back... as long as we can place an order online. read more
Best bang for your buck in Providence for breakfast/brunch. This small spot is a the place to go for a casual brunch of breakfast. Food was great got a bagel, hash, and an egg for around $10. Wanted a big breakfast before looking around the Providence college area. Staff was friendly and place was cozy. Probably more of a local budget spot so wasn't too busy but the place is pretty small, so don't come too late! read more

Ordered: Egg and cheese sandwich + bacon, Blueberry pancakes + home fries. Received food within: 6 minutes. Quality of the food: Very good, especially for the price! Ambience: Nice environment but a little cramped especially when it's busy. After all the space itself is very small. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a nice brea! read more
This small breakfast spot in Fox Point is always packed - for good reason - the food is delicious. We go to Amy's about twice a month for the same sandwich - the Sunday Sandwich, which is a Bacon, Egg, Cheese, Tomato, Lettuce, Gauc, Hashbrown and Garlicy Aioli on a Bolo (portguese fluffy bread). TL,DR: - Best Breakfast foods, including the Sunday Sandwich - Excellent Coffee & Smoothie - Crowded on Weekends - Limited Indoor and Outdoor Seating Best For: -Parties of 2-4 (seating is limited) -Advanced Planners who order ahead to avoid the wait time Fun Fact: We moved to Providence because of* Amy's Sunday Sandwich- the best breakfast sandwich we've ever tasted. We were in the process of moving out of New York City (pandemic, remote work) and had a chance weekend in Providence, where we tried this magic breakfast sandwich. It opened our eyes to the hidden foodie paradise that is Providence, Rhode Island! read more

Amy's has something here. Pro tip: get the hangover sandwich. For me a perfectly proportioned blend of a a perfectly cooked egg and bacon, along with onion, and spinach sandwiched between two slices of heavenly bread. A Marine drill sergeant calls out your name when it is ready. What could be better? On a scale of 1-10 and 10 does not exist for me it was a 9. Thank you to whoever conceived and brought to life such beautiful scrumptious satisfying breakfast sandwich. read more
A breakfast sandwich that has the right balance The Sunday Sandwich hit the spot after a beautiful morning run around downtown providence up to Brown University. The balance of fats, cooling aioli, and fresh tomatoes on a soft bolo bread was delightful. I would also recommend giving the Sunday Sandwich on a wrap a try as it was pretty hefty. read more
Reasonably priced breakfast place with very limited seating. Kitchen staff worked feverishly to keep up with the steady stream of orders. Limited coffee drinks, but smoothies and similar are available. Heinz's ketchup proudly served. Scratch made food was on point. Don't come here is you want a quiet relaxed family style meal. read more

Usually busy on the weekends, slinging amazing breakfast and brunch food. They offer gluten-free options and make a yummy cup of coffee!! This is the Sunday Morning Sandwich on GF toast, minus the greens. Not to mention the ability to eat outside on their patio in the sunshine! read more

Not a place I would go to on a regular basis. Place was described as "cozy" which really means "small" I sat inside and it made me feel like I was in everyone's way while sitting in my stool. It was definitely cramped in the morning. My smoothie wasn't the best either. It was lacking in flavor and just take like orange juice. And parking? Forget about it. You'll be driving around the block a couple times to try to find parking. read more
This place is a popular breakfast spot on Wickenden, it's always super crowded. If you go in person or order online, expect a wait. I got takeout, and it was a 25-30 minute wait after I placed the online order. The time estimate was very accurate, I waited 30 minutes. I got the breakfast burrito. I'm sad to report, it was underseasoned and greasy. There was not much flavor, and I couldn't identify any of the individual components, (except for raw onion) they all blended together in texture and flavor. The size was also small and not very filling. In my to go order, they put cut watermelon and slices of oranges right next to the burrito, so the flavors mixed. Pretty disappointed with this dish, but I would try something else from them. They do have a decent range of dishes, and I have heard that their smoothies are great. In terms of ambiance, the line goes right through the middle of the restaurant all the way out of the door, so it's cramped feeling and chaotic. As I picked up my online order, I accidentally bumped into people who were eating because there was no room to walk through. It might not be the most enjoyable dine experience because of this, however they do have outdoor dining which looks less crowded. read more
Make sure you go early or plan to wait a while. My husband and I had breakfast here on a weekend morning. We went inside to order our food and then was able to grab a small bistro table along the sidewalk. They had the street shut down for vendors so it was a nice time to sit outside and people watch. The place is very small with only a few tables inside that were all occupied. My husband and I each got a breakfast sandwich which we enjoyed. read more
Giving this a 5 star because it's affordable and super tasty. I got the avocado toast and my friend got the rise and shine. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals. I loved the pickled onions on my toast along with the chili lime salt on top. The tables were a bit small, but the interior was overall very cute. read more

The best breakfast sandwiches on the east side! I have had their Avocado Toast and The Hangover, both were delicious and filling. You have your chose of breads to choose from but I recommend having your sandwich on a Bolo. Not sure what a Bolo is, they'll tell you! I'm looking forward to trying the rest of their menu. They are busy but the service is quick and precise on your waiting time. You can also order for pick up. They have some window barstools for people watching and some outside tables for Al fresco dining. read more
I wanted a green smoothie, but also a delicious breakfast sandwich, so I tried Amy's Place for the first time. The space is cute and the food was delicious. I had the hangover breakfast sandwich & the matcha smoothie (substituted the banana with extra mango instead). the two made a perfect pair. delicious fat from the bacon in the sandwich, offset by the cool and refreshing smoothie, and any sandwich with onions on it makes me happy, sooo--bliss! read more

Great breakfast spot in Providence, RI! Amy's was recommended to me by my AirBnB owner and I am SO glad I listened to them. Their pancakes were sooo good! My boyfriend loved their bolos too. Small place so you might have to wait a bit when you go there but it's worth the wait. read more
I was in Rhode Island for Memorial Day Weekend. We spotted this place while hanging out new providence. Amy's place has really cute interior and exterior seating. What I really liked about this place is that you can just order at the counter and then, get seating where they will bring your food. I feel most of the breakfast places are so busy, it's hard for waitress to get through each table. We ordered pancakes, hash it sandwich, and house fries between two people. Their quantity is definitely enough to share between two people. read more

I wish I had found this place sooner -- it was a late discovery made only AFTER moving to MA. I've since crossed state borders 4 times and make it a point to always stop in. Aside from the most recent trip, the hangover sandwich has continually knocked it out of the park. It is both extremely complex in flavor AND comforting -- toasted bolo, spicy aioli, greens, tomato, bacon, crispy hash brown, and egg... a crazy combo. Look no further for convincing than the cross section below. read more
