Delicious breakfast sandwiches. We loved the egg sandwich with avocado and bacon on ciabatta bread! There are some tables inside and some outside. There usually is a line but it moves quickly.
The line and wait for the food is way too long for the quality of food they give. The place is very small there are only a couple tables and the line is awkward out the door so you can't get in or out. I went twice the first time my late was good the second they did it wrong twice. The avacado toast wasn't really toasted it was avacado on stale thick bread. I wasn't impressed. The second time I had gone for the coffee only and it wasn't the same
Our food was delicious, right down to the bread. Service was friendly. They were very busy- long line, but the employees hustled and had smiles on their faces.
In my humble opinion this is the BEST place on block island to get coffee and breakfast items. They have a few vegan options on their menu which is incredible! Wish they had more vegan pastries if course, I didn't get any either day I went. They had a vegan cow poke type cookie but I skipped it and went for the vegan just egg breakfast sandwich. Okay the blackberry syrup is TO DIE FOR I keep thinking about it! UGH I wish I could come here more. To say that this is a favorite of mine would be an understatement. Worth the line and wait, worth the money. Great service and vibes. Beautiful location!!!!!!!!
Let's start with the amazing food!! My friend and I stopped in during a very very busy day (Saturday during August!) and ordered sandwiches to go. I tried half of a Ti Penso and half of the Sun sandwich. Both were delicious but I loved the Sun, it was super flavorful without being heavy and was something I hadn't tried before. The Ti Penso was tasty as well, but definitely felt the Sun won out. The spot is super busy so be warned that the wait times (at no fault of the staff!) are extreme. We got in line at 12:15, ordered at 12:45 and got our food around 1:30. So overall waited over an hour for two sandwiches. However, I imagine if you came during a quiet period it would be a great place to sit inside and read!
Wonderful! Quaint little breakfast spot just around the corner from the hustle and bustle. Inside and outside seating, it's best to walk or ride a bike there. Service is very professional and efficient. Breakfast sandwich, espresso and pastry were all delicious. It's always our first stop when we're in town.
A must try at block island! the line may seem long but it moves quickly. we were able to grab a seat in doors once we ordered. we ordered a lavender latte and matcha latte - both which were great! the lavender is sourced directly from the island which is amazing. we both got their classic egg sandwich, and it was delicious and perfectly portioned. the prices weren't too bad either - being $37 total with the drinks! I would definitely recommend and understand why there's such a long line there!
~ 5 min walk from the ferry. Perfect place to grab a quick sandwich and drink. The line can get long but moves fairly quick. Seating inside is very limited, but there's a decent amount of patio seating. Bathroom available for customers!
Very good egg sandwhiches. Fast customer service and good staff. We went there on a saturday afternoon and was not that packed. We got seats pretty quickly. Very cool cafe.
So cute and delicious! They have a surprisingly large menu including lots of tea and coffee options. The line moved pretty quickly and the breakfast sandwiches were yummy! It is very popular and absolutely worth going to for breakfast when you're on the island!
Absolutely love Perspephone's. Great inventive menu, super cute decor, choice of indoor and outdoor seating, surprisingly reasonable prices, and the toasts are fresh and delicious. There's a little bit of a wait to collect your order but I promise it's well worth it!
Perfect for a light breakfast. The hazelnut latte and specialty lattes are delicious. Located right on the water (you'll see it when you get off the ferry). We got the bacon egg and cheese sandwich in addition to the avocado toast with goat cheese, honey and bacon. I do wish there was more bacon, but still very tasty. Quick service. Beachy vibes.

I visited Persephone's Kitchen twice during my trip to Block Island. The first time I tried Lunch sandwiche " Ti penso" and "Envy" smoothie. On my second visit,I wanted to try something diferent, so I ordered the Simple Egg with whole wheat bread and added bacon. I also ordered the Envy Smoothie again because it was so good that I never forget about it. the atmosphere is good.the first time, there was more spaces I ate inside. the second time, it was busy, but the line moved quickly, so I took my lunch to the beach. The price is fair because the quality is really good.I love spending money on food that is actually worth it! I really enjoyed the place and the quality of the food,I'll definitely come back every time I visit the Island. If you're visiting Block island, I definitely recommend stopping here. read more
I was curious about this place. Each time we walked by there was a line out the door so I knew it would be good.....I didn't expect it to be addictive! The mocha was rich and smooth and so decadent! I asked the staff to pick a pastry and I ended up with a fabulous mixed berry scone. I was moist and flavorful and loaded with fresh berries. I truly enjoyed this meal, the porch of the National was the perfect location to enjoy it! read more
Great coffee, friendly and efficient counter service. It's a quaint little place - maybe 6-7 tables - always a line but they do move as quickly as possible. All the pastries look delicious but on this visit I just got coffee! :) read more

Not impressed at all! My wife and I got breakfast sandwiches on English muffins. Neither of our English muffins was toasted (really?! Yes). The scrambled eggs seemed to be microwaved and bland. Portions were really small. We were hungry about 2 hours later. Our sandwiches were much more expensive than the nearby bagel shop, had a much longer wait, and were not nearly as good. My wife ordered decaf coffee. She ended up pouring it out since it was undrinkable. This place is not seem worth the hype... I'd never go back. read more

Food and Storefront were fabulous. The toast and smoothie were a perfect blend of sweet and savory. The art on the walls is nice to look at. Long line to order and no AC so kind of humid in the shop. Service was friendly enough and food came out within 10 min within the lunch rush. read more

Choose from a variety of eggs,toast, bowls, melts... Persephone's menu is "comfort food" at its finest, that can be both healthy and nourishing. For eg. grilled cheese, a childhood favorite, is elevated into a Ti Penso with pesto, arugula, mozzarella and Vermont Cheddar. After a lot of contemplation I finally settled for the Lala Toast, a thick slice of sourdough slathered with pesto goat cheese and topped with caramelized onions, arugula and of course minus the bacon. This is the kind of dish where you say "I'll just take a few bites and save the rest for later", and then you take a few more bites, and then a few more. It's simply too good not to finish every last morsel. Persephone's is a worthwhile stop for a cafe breakfast. read more
This place was so quaint! I had seen it on Tik Tok and couldn't resist stopping by when we landed on Block Island. Luckily they open at 7, so get there early if you can. By the time we got there around 8, the line was outside the door. One thing they pride themselves on is getting the food ready at a reasonable time since it's a pretty popular place. I had the avocado toast and added bacon and egg and my friend had the Nutella and banana toast. Overall a good way to start off our day with the right amount of energy. They also have smoothies and a variety of other breakfast and lunch options! read more

Smoothie and toast was sooooo good! Scenery is very pretty too! Would def recommend for breakfast or lunch! read more
One of the best breakfast/lunch spots in Block Island! You will see a line into the street and it's for a good reason. This is a small spot that manages to meet the demands of the island with great food, specialty drinks, and fresh baked goods. The design of the interior is so comforting, this is a cafe right out of a movie! This is a must try if you're ever in the area. read more

Came here for breakfast around 930am and there was a line but not out the door. Staff does a great job getting people in and out.. you order at the counter then find a table to hang out at until they call your number. I had the blush smoothie with almond milk instead of grape juice.. it was decent, tasted mostly like banana. Also had the almond butter toast which was a little heavy on the almond butter, but the sourdough bread was good. My cousin had a smoothie bowl and Althea told me coffee as well! Cute vibe but not great for a huge group due to small table seating. read more

Persephone's Kitchen is the happenin' spot within walking distance of the main dock (bike-friendly too!) The main draw are the unique homemade toast options that are the centerpiece of the menu. Savory and sweet combinations are available, and make sure you order more than one. I went with a delicious muffin and scone option this day because the line was long, and the wait longer. No. Regrets. Before I forget, the hibiscus ice tea is delightful as well. There is outdoor seating, but it is nice to move out from that crowded space a bit and enjoy. read more

The food was amazing for a quick-stop brunch place! The service is quite casual, you order your food at the front, and they bring it to you by shouting your order number. The ambiance is casual as well, but super welcoming with cute decor and some pride stickers for sale! If you just want a basic drink and not brunch, they have a smaller location at the historical society. read more

Such a cute place. Highly recommend! Adorable interior. Has both interior and exterior seating. The zucchini bread is incredible, as are the smoothie bowls. A great place to grab a quick breakfast while on the island! The earlier the better because lines do build up! read more

This is a special place with delicious food no matter what you order. Their smoothies are delicious, especially after a long walk around the island. Their coffee drinks are delicious too. I highly recommend the blueberry lemon ricotta muffins. I left the island thinking I HAVE to try to replicate the recipe. You do pay the tourist tax so it's not cheap and the breakfast sandwich portions are small (think half of a normal sandwich) but it's enough for you to have in the morning to start your day in a delicious way. You won't regret going. If you do, you'll have to wait in line because Persephone's is a popular spot. Enjoy! read more

Lots of options - so many, that it hard to pick just a few. Everything was excellent. Your order is assigned a number, once it is ready, they call it out. Seating is limited inside, but there are a number of tables outside. read more
