Eggs Benedict
Camille T.

Great spot for breakfast! We hadn't been here before but my mom has. When we got here it was busy, but there were open tables (my mom said this, too - it's consistently busy. It you never have to wait!). The service was very good and quick, they had great coffee, and the food was fast and delicious. The portions are very large, so be prepared to take some home with you! We'll definitely be back!!

A side of bacon
Ana B.

This is very much a diner type of restaurant, located in a strip mall area. We were seated quickly but there was a little wait for larger parties. We ordered our food and it came quickly too. I did not receive my crispy home fries as I asked for but the food was great overall. My niece loved the pancakes they were bigger than our faces and full of flavor. Just what I was looking for in a breakfast spot, we will come again.

Western omelette
Samantha W.

Went here after doing a quick breakfast search and I'm sure glad we did. We sat at the breakfast counter and after a few minutes we had hot coffees. Looked over the menu and decide to try the omelette!! Hearing other customers order they allow many substitutions and are flexible with orders. They had a short wait for a table about 20 minutes and were busy our entire stay. There were many take out orders as well. The atmosphere of the restaurant is cozy and family friendly.

Top: Breakfast Burrito with shredded hash-browns   Bottom: Eggs Benedict with home fries
Danielle D.

My fiancé had the breakfast burrito with shredded hash-browns, which he said it was a 10/10. I opted for the classic eggs benny with home fries- which is my go-to order for breakfast, since I'm not talented enough/ have the patience to make my own at home! Portions are large enough to get two breakfasts out of them. I would recommend both of these dishes! Service here is always friendly and attentive. We went around 8:30am on a Saturday, and there was a decent amount of people/ not too crowded. I've been here before around 10am on a Saturday, and they also handle large crowds well! The inside could use some updating, but it serves the purpose of being a nice breakfast place. The parking lot situation for this plaza is an absolute mess among many other choice words- but they have no control over that. I would recommend to plan accordingly during peak hours and be cautious of other drivers in this lot to say the least. Overall Athena's is a staple in the Knightsville community!

French toast, ham, sausage, bacon(not shown),rye toast, home fries, scrambled eggs
Lisa W.

This was our first time here, and we will be back. Our server, Sherry, was very nice, checked on us several times, and even had some small talk with us. Coffee was very good, which is a big deal! I had basic scrambled eggs, sausage, home fries and toast. The eggs felt heavy, not light and fluffy like I prefer, but we're tasty. The sausage had a different taste and texture, I'm on the fence about it. My toast was extremely dark on one side, light on the other. The home fries were ok. Mine were burnt on one side, and some were more seasoned than the other. Note- there are onions in the home fries, but not tons that makes the potatoes overwhelmed by them. My husband had a huge breakfast that included bacon, sausage and ham, as well as french toast (or pancakes) along with the eggs (scrambled), home fries and toast. He couldn't finish!! He thought the same about the heavy eggs, although his home fries and toast were done nicely. They had a big enough menu that I have no problem trying Athena's again. It was very busy this Saturday morning, and no sooner did a table or counter space open up, it was filled. It's a worth-the- try breakfast and lunch establishment.

Egg and cheese sandwich on an everything bagel. Very good
Nick C.

Damn, the value at Athena's is crazy! I got 3 pancakes ($6.25) with Nutella spread (+ $1.50) as well as a egg and cheese breakfast sandwich ($2.75) on a bagel (+ $.50). Everything was so tasty! What I loved is that each of the 3 pancakes had a generous amount of Nutella spread, not just the top one. The pancakes were light, fluffy and delicious. I ate everything, but barely. The value of their food is great. I can eat a lot in one sitting (clearly), so I'm always looking for spots where I can get tons of food for a great price and quality. I'll be back soon for another cheat meal!

Bacon, eggs, and potatoes pancakes
Rhonda S.

Bill was $40 with 2 beverages. You get a lot of food for the bang. Def would recommend. The food came up very fast. Very friendly service.

Coffee Milk
Ravuth O.

Better than T's Restaurant in Cranston. I have always enjoyed the fact that they are humble than T's. The manager and owner who cooks and always goes around tables greeting the customers. I brought my parents here. My dad is picky so it was wonderful to get the thumbs up from them! Today, I decided to get the Breakfast number 4. Eggs and Ham off the Bone. Fruit bowl substitute and whole grain toast. What I like: Wow! The is huge. It's literally looks like the Ribeye steak! What I love about this place is that they don't stick you with the sides you don't want to eat. I got fruit bowl substitute. My biggest likes is reliable service. I have no criticism or anything bad to say! I more than recommend this place and Howie's in North Providence. Pictures provided of my delicious meal.

They gave this to us on accident (we ordered chocolate chip banana), but it was so pretty I snapped a photo before they whisked it away.

My review still stands but I think my rating was inaccurate. They're more middle of the road, or "A-okay," as yelp says for three stars.

I ended up staying here kind of randomly - I had booked the Extended Stay America down the street,…read morethrough Delta Travel, and they canceled on me last minute, and ended up booking me here. Definitely stressful but it ended up working out well for me (this was more of a luxury hotel). Pros: -Super comfy bed, I had a room with a king bed -There is a restaurant on-site -The hotel is definitely modern but very tastefully decorated -Lots of plugs to plug in phone chargers, etc. -You can add on breakfast - on the Delta Travel site it was $11 and my breakfast cost $21 so objectively it's a good deal, however it's limited to only four entree choices and juice or coffee. -Friendly front desk employees Cons: -The toilet would make a weird noise whenever I would flush it -The rooms are okay-sized (300 sq. ft.) but bathroom is tiny - if you're sharing a room with friends I could see it being a little awkward. I also couldn't completely close the bathroom door and I was afraid it would get stuck so I didn't attempt it -Parking is across the street and is $12 per day, I believe they have valet as well Overall I would stay here again - Delta Travel paid them $450 for last night's stay (!!!) but I remembered seeing it for $300 when I was looking previously (and to compare, the more-basic room I had booked was $215... I assume because it's a Friday night) which isn't quite as bad.

We stayed at the Loom overnight en route to Boston via Amtrak. Check in was easy and the hotel has…read morea major industrial feel to it. It does feel luxurious nevertheless and has alot of character. The shower pressure is amazing and the beds were comfy. We didnt use any other amenities. Checkout was a bit disengaged but for a quick over night stay it more than fit the bill. It left me wanting a bit more. I would 100% stay here again.
