    Exceeded my expectations. I got the breakfast bowl special which has farro, peppers, onions,…read morepotatoes, and topped with an egg - it was a really tasty bowl. The ingredients were actually cooked together and well seasoned making for a cohesive dish rather than one of those bowls that just dumps separate ingredients into a bowl that lacks flavor. Would get this again for sure. My only complaint is that my egg was covered in black specs which appeared to be burnt cast iron residue. The honey lavender scone was also great - nice texture - almost biscuit like tbh, and the lavender flavor was a little too subtle for me to really taste, but I still enjoyed it. The place is cute as well but be warned they don't let you use a laptop here which I'm not a fan of. I didn't have a laptop on me but I know a lot of people like to go to cafes and do some work. My friends got sandwiches and they rated them 10/10. The bread looked like they had the perfect texture.

    We stopped in today and Groundswell was hopping! A line out the door and an employee directing…read moretraffic. Not a problem though as the line moved quickly. The cafe itself is absolutely gorgeous. One of the nicest cafes I've ever seen. Decorated perfectly and had numerous goodies to sell. It was packed but we didn't have trouble finding a place to stand. The menu is pretty limited but that made it easy to choose what we wanted. The employee who served us was very accommodating and friendly. She answered any questions we had with no issues. I ended up ordering a leek quiche and chai tea latte. The total for two drinks, a quiche, and a sandwich came out to $56. Definitely way too pricey to do this often. The food came out quickly. My latte was delicious but for $8 it should be. Mostly ice as well. My quiche was not as delicious though. It was barely lukewarm and pretty bland. For $19 I also found the portion to be pretty small. Definitely not something I would order again. My partner enjoyed his sandwich but said it was also small for the price and the bread was a bit too crusty. Overall, it's a beautiful venue and a nice experience but I wouldn't rush back on my next trip to Tiverton.

Tt has everything you'd want from a great coffee shop: comfortable seating, plenty of room to spread out and work, a rentable conference room, and something you would not expect from a coffee shop, the Aurora Bar, stocked with a nice selection of local spirits and other favorites. My partner and I stopped in for a quick nibble for lunch on Sunday and this was perfect. My partner went with the Caprese sandwich, which is served on a pressed ciabatta with fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, roasted red peppers, spinach, pesto mayo, and balsamic. It was simple and tasty, and I was lucky enough to get a couple bites! I went with the Chicken Bacon Ranch Wrap, which was also simple, but packed with flavor. It had all the obvious ingredients with the addition of pickles, which added such a nice briny little punch and really hit the spot. Something worth noting: both of our items were ordered from the laminated menu at the register, not in the beautiful leather-bound Aurora Bar menu, which appears to be an evening menu with cocktails and other tasty food items. For drinks, I went with an espresso tonic; the slight bitterness of the quinine plays really nicely against the bold espresso, and it's one of those combinations that's refreshing in a way that's hard to explain until you try it. One small note for the team: the Riverside location has always had a real warmth and cohesion to the staff that I haven't quite felt at Bristol. It's not a dealbreaker by any stretch, but a little more energy behind the counter would go a long way. Still a five-star spot, as the coffee and the space more than make up for it.

    I've visited several times in the last couple of years. My most recent visit was this week (June…read more2026). It was very busy for noon on a weekday, though it is summer and the weather was gorgeous. The restaurant itself is clean and well kept. The outdoor area is lovely. There's plenty of seating and a fun tiki bar that opens in the summertime. For lunch, I got the wild berry iced tea and the breakfast bowl. My sister got the tea and avocado toast. Portion sizes are small, and at cafe prices. The avocado toast was super disappointing... it was one slice of bread, a smear of avocado, and about a quarter cup of chopped up tomatoes. I put more butter on my toast than the amount of avocado this one had. It's a great local spot, but be warned about the food/prices.

What a brilliant idea! I am a chai snob of sorts. I only like chai made from powder and NOT liquid! Happily Sunset Cove uses the powder and it was delicious! Had mine iced! My husband had an iced latte and he said it was smooth. We sat outside in a couple of the adirondack chairs enjoying the view and the breeze off the water. The inside is also a very nice setting. We both used the bathrooms which were clean and whatever deodorizer they use smells good! These things matter too! I can't wait to return. They have concert nights and their pastries looked yummy. I want to bring my family and friends. Highly recommend.

    The Corner Cafe has never, and I repeat, never disappointed. The Claudia's Pick (veggie omelet)…read morewith a bolo and spicy ranch is my go to because it is perfect in every way. The veggies are super fresh, the home fries are full of flavor and the spicy ranch is so good, I wish they sold it in bottles. The service is also something that can't be beat, everyone is super friendly and treats you like a regular even if it's your first visit. Even though the location appears small there is tons of seating and also some outside dining when the weather cooperates. Hot tip: It can get pretty busy and the line to wait is outside, so be mindful of that. Also, it is BYOB and there are a couple if places near by to pick up some bubbles for a Saturday morning mimosa.

We were…read morehighly recommended by a wonderful and intelligent young woman to try this spot for Breakfast if we are in Newport! We took her advice and yes this place was quaint, inviting and very busy but it was a holiday in A historic Newport! We waited briefly to sit outdoors in the bright morning sun which was very close to the 12 O'Clock time! We did sit for a long while before being approached even for coffee or welcoming us but we all understood it was busy for 1 to handle maybe 7 tables that were filled! But, at some point I had to get up and go inside to politely say we had been waiting longer than one should expect! A moment or two our waitress came to take our beverage order and then after enjoying our coffee she came to take our Breakfast order, I chose the Holiday Special Omelette, which were two listed! The Shrimp and Prosciutto Omelette with Avocado sounded Amazing so that was my Choice! We all ordered! When it all arrived we took photos of each and they all looked very tasty! Anticipating my breakfast I delved into my Omelette and ate a bite and it was very tasty, took another bite still very tasty.....I paused and wondered " Where is the Shrimp and Prosciutto and Avocado?" I told my family member, I don't see either, we joked she said "maybe it's chopped... ". So, I flagged the waitress and asked her if this is what I ordered and she said, " She made a mistake thinking there were only one Special Omelette and apologized and will have one made immediately! I said Ok, she left and we joked about the Staff and then THE OMELETTE ARRIVED! It was spectacular looking and even better tasting! Unfortunately, my family already finished but it was OK! We sat still enjoying more coffee and then without being aware accidentally spilled coffee on my families slacks but we chose NOT to mention it! It was obviously this Waitress should have had additional help to take care of the outside guests! She was polite and did her best but she was overwhelmed! She brought the Check and she did mention she would remove my Omelette from the Bill as a courtesy for the error! That was acceptable and nice of this Cafe to do that! The Food was Excellent The Location outside was Nice The Service was a comedy of errors! The Day was Still wonderful!
