There is a pay lot in the back for convenience, and for 2 hours it would have been around $9.00. I ordered breakfast tacos. Delish!! Served with a choice of side. I went with hash browns.

Strong, tasty, and have such a good variety. Honestly, they're one of the best parts of the colder weather coming back, just so I can go and have them again. I do wish they had them all year round ! Location: The location has a cozy, casual yet modern. You can definitely come dressed casually, but it's also nice enough to dress up if you want. I've only been here for breakfast, so I'm not sure how dinner is. I would definitely recommend making a reservation since it gets pretty busy. This place is perfect for a chill family time, first date, or just to catch up with friends ! Parking is easy with both street parking and a lot right in front, which makes it super convenient. Service: The service has always been great when I've gone. The servers are friendly, attentive, and get the job done, no complaints there. I'll definitely keep coming back, especially in the wintertime!

When we heard it was a bakery by day, we thought it might be awkward for a dinner service but boy were we wrong. The space was so warm and relaxing, cozy and inviting. And the food and drink? Amazing. My cocktail was one of the best I've had in quite a while. The same for my husband. Really inventive and tasty. And the food was incredible. We had the fois gras, baked cheve, pork chops with polenta, panna cotta and madelienes. Every bite was so wonderful. Thanks so much for a fabulous birthday celebration for me and my husband!

The first time I came, it was a rainy weekday and this time it was a sunny weekend, so I was expecting an even larger crowd; and my prediction was correct. The line was just out the door but because of their awesome staff, the line was moving very quickly. While we waited in line, we could watch them making pastries through the glass, a couple feet in front of us. I admired that level of transparency. When we were third in line, the kindest lady asked us whether we'd be eating in or taking out and she took down our name to help us find a table when it came time. She did the same for the rest of the people in line. She also gave us some recommendations, including the cinnamon bun - apparently they're so good kids cry when they sell out. I didn't intend to order anything with my drink, but I couldn't get the cinnamon bun out of my head so I ordered it along with my iced spiced chai latte. The hen (I think it's their logo) on the aprons of the employees are super cute. We did secure a table. The tables are close together to maximize the number of people who can sit down but I didn't mind. I love their art all around, mostly of birds which I am obsessed with. I love that they have a lot of natural lighting coming through their tall windows. I also like the navy blue and white theme they have going on. The chai latte was perfect. It was the right color (a dark tan), meaning the ratio of tea and milk was good and I could taste a lot of the spices. The cinnamon bun blew my expectations away. The second my teeth made. contact with the icing, it was a magical feeling. I couldn't quite put my finger on what it tasted like, but the closest I got was dulce de leche. It is truly unlike any other cinnamon bun I have ever had. The dough is soft and there is a good amount of cinnamon. It's also $4 which is not bad. I had a bite of their canelé, which apparently requires a lot of work to make. It was very moist, with a great caramelized finish. I am super excited to try their new weekend dinner menu, but also more of their all day menu items.

Chef Ben Sukle has received many accolades including being a James Beard Finalist so I knew we were in for a treat. Everything we ordered was so fresh, had a farm-to-table vibe, and felt very intentional. 3 different dishes had 3 different types of olive oil - that's impressive! I was blown away by the Red Shrimp Quasi Crudo. They were slightly sweet, perfectly cooked with a delicate snap, and I still got some of the roasted/grilled flavor. The Raw Scallops were so simple yet so exquisite. This is a must order along with anything on their crudo menu! The Carrot & Mascarpone Anolini was such a unique pasta and was perfectly balanced and delicious. And definitely leave room for dessert because you can't leave here without trying the Wood-Roasted Basque-Style Cheesecake. It's so creamy, borderline custardy, with a beautiful char on top and the delicate blueberries and olive oil that paired so well together. They are really using their wood-fire oven to the max and I'm here for it. What an exceptional meal; highly recommend.

My pieces were tasty but a bit fatty (hard to chew). I had the eggplant ravioli which was very rich and tasty ($28) - but so heavily sauced it was hard to tell what was what. The less good parts: the cheap wood chairs are too uncomfortable to sit on very long (I moved to the banquette next to my partner). The food is overpriced. It really needed something with it - bread, potatoes, vegetables, anything. The pork came with a few bitter leaves of a salad. I have a small appetite in general - I usually take home half my food anywhere I go. I looked at the food and said "we are going to have to go to IHOP later" because it was a light snack. The only bread available cost $12. Maybe it's amazing but I just couldn't bring myself to pay $12 for bread on principle. The food took awhile to arrive. Long enough for the server to tell us she was leaving for the night and to get up and order two drinks directly from the bar myself. The servers were nice in a way that felt somewhat forced. We are finding someplace else for dessert. I really liked my espresso martini, and that was within the price range I would expect ($13).

Parking is on the street. Another thing I didn't like is they charge a kitchen fee. No matter it comes out of their tip but I think it's a little bit weird I think this would be a great place to get a drink. The food was very good and on point but given the price point it's a bit on the high Overall I would come back for the bar but not in a rush for the food for the price point

Ordered during my last visit: - Midsummer Negroni - Seasonal crudo* - Tomatoes & peaches** - Half chicken*** - Salmon *Fluke with golden berries & allium of some sort. It was remarkably underwhelming. The fish had a strange texture & the dish was completely lacking in flavor. Very bland. The best part was the golden berries. For the price (22 whole dollars) it was a huge let down. **When I saw this combination on the menu, I had to know more. I'm so glad we ordered this! It was delicious, rich yet also light & summery. I would definitely order this again. ***This dish absolutely stole the show. What a wonderful combination of textures & flavors. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Delicious! The portion size surprised me as well. I will be back! I might stay away from the overpriced raw bar next time. I'm still a fan of Bayberry & think this is a great place to take people when they're visiting from out of town.

We started out with my husband's newfound favorite, the clam cakes. I appreciated the herbiness of the breadcrumbs they were fried in. My husband got the crab roll for his entree, and I did like the bite I was able to sneak of it. I really wanted the lobster roll but that $42 price tag turned me away quickly. Instead I got the fish and chips with pollock for my entree. I am always complaining about portion sizes. Not here, I was only able to finish around 1/3 of it. It is substantial! Not only was it a generous portion, but it was really nicely fried, and I loved the flaky salt on it. My one complaint is the sauces that you pay extra for. I got some piri-piri mayo and garlic aioli. Both of these were absolutely not worth it, grossly lacking in flavor. Don't waste your money on these and stick with ketchup. The staff was friendly, helpful, and as attentive as they could be from inside the food truck. The locale is super cute with a bunch of picnic tables out on a patio. The parking is super limited though so beware. Would definitely recommend!

They only offer outdoor seating, so I'd saying nice weather is key to enjoy a meal here, but we lucked out. My wife and I placed our order at the window, and waited for them to call our name. We split a cup of clam chowder (white) and a lobster roll. Food was ready pretty quickly and was delicious. The lobster roll was not only full, but it was packed with huge chunks of meat, very tasty, it was also served with French fries. The clam chowder was also tasty, with good flavor and decent chunks of clam inside. Prices here were a bit high, but the quality of the food was very high, and very fresh. Portions are decent, as we were able to share one lobster roll and a cub of chowder, and it was adequate. They also had live music playing to add a little ambiance If you find yourself in downtown Providence, I'd recommend this as a staple to check out.

This a local spot, if you know, you know, and if you don't, now you do :) Let me just say that if there is one thing to really focus in on, it's consistency. In today's economy with everything so expensive you sometimes feel like you don't get the best value for money spent. So let me tell you, these guys and girls nail it every single time. First off it's a super cozy spot, perfectly lit with a high end tavern type feel. Service is always prompt and friendly. Ask anyone working and they're happy to help you out. You'll never hear let me get your server. Drinks ! Specialty drafts that are nearly impossible to find anywhere else. Drinks that are so well thought out and properly made. The wife hasn't been able to complain once ;) and that's saying something. The dishes speak for themselves just look at the pics. Who makes sausage cups for dipping ??! This place does. The wife had a watermelon salad here years ago and hasn't stopped talking about it. There is literally something here for everyone and every pallet preference. You have to try their brunch ! It's nice to see a place that really prides itself on what it serves. The wife and I were able to get a sitter and finally have a dinner night and Rogue never disappoints. Getting into the city can be a pain sometimes but it's so worth it coming here. They buy their products from local sources and they're a local business. I love to support it and can't wait to eat here again. For me to take the time to write this is saying a lot but the guys and girls who make this place run, really deserve the recognition. I hope you try them out.

They also messed up the check which further delayed the whole thing. There are plenty of great coffee shops in the area where you will have a nicer time, better experience at less cost. It's not worth it for brunch at all. I will never be back. Response: male waiter on Sunday do not remember his name he was not memorable, check had an extra coffee on it, waiter shared it was a miscommunication, we had to communicate with other staff because he was barely at our table.
