I celebrated my first Mother's Day here this past weekend!! I'm finally part of the cool club! Lol my husband, our baby and I all sat outside on the patio. We went around 9am and there were still a couple of tables open thank God, I was expecting it to be packed. We were immediately greeted and our server came shortly after to take our order. The food was delicious and I could not stop eating it. The steak was cooked to perfection, the home fries were crispy and the eggs were perfectly poached. I had such a great experience here, I can't wait to eat here again!

Eggs, home fries, Italian toast

It's a joy to give this place a four-star rating. The service is top-notch, and the food is bursting with flavor. After spending time in the Midwest, returning home to Rhode Island was a treat, especially for the deliciously seasoned home fries. The eggs were cooked to perfection, and you can never go wrong with Italian toast. Best breakfast or brunch in Rhode Island hands down. I almost forgot to mention the fresh hot cup of coffee and KENO!

Ladies and gents, gather 'round and let me tell you about the unparalleled breakfast brilliance that is Harriet's Kitchen. Now, I fancy myself somewhat of a breakfast aficionado, and after devouring brunches far and wide, Harriet's remains unbeaten. Imagine a world where every other breakfast joint becomes a mere hors d'oeuvre to the main course of Harriet's. Yep, that's the world I'm living in. When it comes to my regulars, it's always a toss-up between the lip-smacking #12, the Croissant Sandwich--a delightful medley of scrambled egg, cheese, and your choice of meaty goodness. Pair that with their home fries, and don't be shy; ask 'em crispy and deep-fried, just as I do. And if I'm feeling adventurous? The Hash Benedict sweeps me off my feet every time. Picture this: English muffin, corned beef hash, two poached beauties (that's eggs, my friend), slathered in Hollandaise sauce. And yes, those crispy home fries are non-negotiable! The Mrs.? She's all in for the Harriet's Special - two eggs, toast, and those unforgettable home friends...err, I mean, fries! As for my little one? The Mickey Mouse pancakes sprinkled with powdered sugar are her jam. Cute fact: she nibbles the ears first, every time! The ambiance? Classic Rhode Island! It's that cozy corner where everyone knows your name and, heck, probably your order too! The charm isn't just in the air; it's in every plate, every smile. Speaking of smiles, a big shoutout to Harriet's top-tier servers--always on the ball and ever-so-delightful. You'll feel the owners' presence--they're hands-on, ensuring impeccable service every single time. I've been a loyal patron for a whopping 14 years, and I've evangelized Harriet's gospel to many. Honestly? I see a lifetime of breakfasts here, right till my twilight years. In the race for the best breakfast and brunch in the state, Harriet's Kitchen isn't just running; they're soaring! P.S. A wee bit of wisdom for newcomers: if it's packed (and trust me, it often is), brace yourself for a bit of outdoor waiting. No fancy reservation list here--just an old-school, honor-based queue. And communication's key; it's a dance of nodding and smiling, figuring out who's next. To sum it up? Harriet's Kitchen isn't just a breakfast joint--it's a Rhode Island legend!!!

Mickey Mouse pancakes

I hadn't been to Harriet's in at least 20 years. But the food is just as delicious as I remember. The service was great and even though there were tons of "regulars" coming in and out while we were there, we weren't made to feel like we were out of place or infringing on someone else's territory. It was a great breakfast and a very comfortable experience!! My daughter got the Mickey Mouse pancake (chocolate chip) and I got the eggs Florentine. Both were absolutely delicious. And the home fries were very different (like thinly sliced potatoes) but some of the best I've had in a while!! We'll definitely be back!!

I did a quick #travelsketch of a roadside stall I passed on the way while having my meal.

A wonderful breakfast find while traveling. Welcoming staff and a good cheese and mushroom omelette with bottomless coffee.

Vegetarian omelet with italian toast and a side of onion rings

The food is an all-American brunch/ dinner feel. Staff is always friendly and inviting. The place is well kept, beautiful open late spring/ summer outdoor seating your view will be filled with beautiful flowers and daily traffic.

the menu for the restaurant

This is a great little restaurant on Atwood Avenue in Cranston. On this beautiful November day we decided to celebrate my daughter's birthday with a nice breakfast. They have a nice little outdoor patio that was full due to the great weather. I had a Belgian waffle with warm apples and whipped cream. It was soft, fluffy, and delicious. My kids had omelettes with their signature home fries. Besides breakfast, Harriet's also offers appetizers, sandwiches and burgers. Their prices are very reasonable as well. Masks were worn by the wait staff. Check this place out, it's a great place with delicious food and fast service!

Harriet's Humdinger with ham!

Exceptional: large portions. I had the Harriet's Humdinger with ham and it was huge! I ate a large breakfast and had 2 meals from the leftovers. The person next to me had a bacon omelet and it looked like it had a half pound of bacon in it! She took more than half home also. Good: varied menu for both breakfast and lunch, strong coffee, active take out business. Average: prices were about the same as other sites in the area. Bad: Busy on the weekends, small parking lot, small seating area and small counter.

Old Fashioned sausage gravy and biscuits w home fries. Delicious!
A. F.

They have the best home fries around! My favorite on their menu is the Old Fashioned. It's sausage gravy and biscuits that comes with a side of the home fries. I also ordered with a fried egg. Can't say I've ever had a bad meal here. Only negative I would say is that it's a small place and gets filled pretty quickly.

Mickey pancakes!
Steph P.

Finally made my way to Harriet's! Enjoyed a great breakfast here in what seemed to be a cheery renovated interior. Tried a veggie omelet which was impressive in size. Also tried blueberry pancakes which did not disappoint! They have a Mickey pancake for kids that my nephew enjoyed :) as far as service goes it was our waitress's first day and she was just wonderful. The food came out on a timely manner and was nice and warm. Loved everything besides their big screen TVs blaring OAN "news". Very pleased with Food and service at Harriet's but please, mind what you you air on TV!!!

once you find a place to park, good luck-you enter the overly cramped dining room. Food was good but could see how this place could get too packed. Best home fries in the state.

Owner's reply

Went inside for an off-peak breakfast. Sat at empty counter. 2 waitresses were unmasked, but complied when I asked them to. The Owner (self identified male) came out, mask under his chin. I asked him to pull his mask up. He refused, with a variety of responses: 1. I am wearing it correctly. 2. I'm not required to wear it at all. 3. I'm vaxxed. You vaxxed? Then it is safe, what's your problem? 4. Why is it ok for you to eat with your mask off, but I have to wear one? 5. If you don't feel safe, stay home. 6. Health Dept has been here several times & we always pass. As I waited for my check, he kept coming back to me, standing close as I kept backing away, repeating the above. I paid my bill, tipped my server, & left. I have enjoyed breakfasts there in the past. But am now wondering what other Health Department regulations are routinely ignored there. Avoid.

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.
