The WiFi quality and A.C. both work really well- which is super important when you're trying to get a bunch of work done! I think the design is really intentional and beautifully restored and I noticed a ton of original pieces of machinery and decor reused from the original factory. The gal Sara(h?) that manages the property has been so amazing with answering my questions and even letting me in when I forgot my key card! A new bar, Far West, just opened next to the coworking space- I plan on stopping in all the time!! Thanks for existing, Rooms & Works!!

This has got to be one of the most beautiful rehab projects I have seen of an old factory building…read more What was once an old manufacturing building is now a shared office space/incubator kitchen/speakeasy bar/apartment space. There are so many surprises within this one building. A bunch of apartments above, the shared office space and incubator kitchen on the main level. A bocci ball court, cornhole, grill and picnic tables in the courtyard. There is also another building out back that is not currently being utilized but is another amazing (small) space for something amazing once they figure out its intended purpose. My favorite part is the amount of items they salvaged during the rehab. From machinery to metal drawers, they incorporated as much as they could into the overall aesthetic of the place. Kudos to a great job and preserving such a hidden gem.

The folks who run the space are friendly and welcoming, the wi-fi is fast, and the on-site kitchen has the coffee and other basics that you'd expect. Pricing also is reasonable, especially for the cafe membership. I plan to use the space again should I need to.

I was in town for the day, and I needed a place to work. I realize some would opt for a nice…read moreStarbucks, but I personally need dedicated "work" space to get into the right head space. I tend to soak up the environment, so if I'm in a bustling coffee shop, then I'll want to become part of the bustle. Hence, finding an actual co-working space topped my list of to-dos. Luckily, I stumbled across Sprout on Yelp, and even luckier for me, they are one of the few places in Providence to offer a day pass! The pricing was incredible given the free (fast) WiFi, the access to multiple kinds of spaces (including my favorite hot desk area with sprawling desks and large windows--though there are other places to work closer to cubicles if that's your jam), and free coffee/tea. There's even a cute little cafe a few hundred yards away to grab some quick lunch (closes @ 2 pm). The parking was also free (score!), though the lots are shared with an apartment complex/other businesses, so be aware that you may need to circle around a bit to find a spot. Overall, it was a great place to get some work done, and I'd highly recommend checking it out if you're in town for the day/week, and if you need monthly plans (and conference rooms), they've got that, too! Stacey (business manager) was kind enough to give me a short tour when I first signed in, and she had lots of great information to share. 5 stars without a doubt!

Not sure if I had to pay for that but I didn't ask and he didn't ask for payment so I tipped him instead.
