    I'm really disappointed that I can't give this a higher review. This staff was so sweet and you can tell they enjoyed what they were doing which I loved! However, the space itself felt like it needed an extreme deep cleaning. The menu is extensive so maybe I'll give it another try. Their house made muffins were pretty good and a great size for the price. The breakfast sandwich was simple, but unfortunately, the bagel was awful. The coffee was no-frills based on the description of what I got. I thought there would be a little more happening in my cup, but that's OK They do have Wi-Fi if you're interested in sitting down to work and they do have ample comfy seating. It's just a little outdated. Parking is tricky because the street sign say you cannot park but you actually can. Overall, I think this place has something there but it just needs revamping

    Muffins looked so great here but they were out of the one I really wanted so I just left with a coffee. Seating inside and out in a relatively quiet spot in the city. They have an extensive breakfast and lunch menu. Street parking. Friendly service.

    This coffee shop is a little hole in the wall! They have a wide variety of food on their menu, not so much of a coffee variety though. I ordered a double shot espresso over ice and MJs sweet and spicy flatbread personal pizza. The pizza was soooo good! They have a cozy indoor dining area with alot of books to read and velvet covered chairs. The service was decent and the prices are $. I will definitely return while I am in this area and try something else and take more pictures.

    Cute cafe, casual and a place to grab breakfast, snack, or yummy beverages. The avocado toast was great, fresh avocado and I added eggs. The sourdough bread was great too. Service is great!

    Adore this spot! Coffees always what I needed! Flavors brewed into the beans or flavor shots they don't disappoint. Every time I've ordered food it's always fresh and delicious. Love coming here

    Tried it one time and found the coffee to be acidic and not very tasty. I don't see myself returning.

    5 Stars for a great strawberry matcha latte and phenomenal cappuccino…read more This coffee and matcha shop has so much more to it than a typical coffee shop. It has a ton of Japanese treats in the fridge as well as shelves. They also have a bar and sell wine and fun cocktails. They brew Bolt coffee (a local brewer and coffee shop) and make a truly exceptional cappuccino. Like, really really good third wave style espresso drinks that I've not found at other shops in Providence so far (two week visit). I was initially worried their iced strawberry matcha latte might be too sweet, but that was fortunately not at all the case! It was balanced and mild. Just be sure to stir it up! They also have some pastries and baked goods from Seven Stars Bakery, and we thoroughly enjoyed a small lemon cake. We'll likely be back in our last few days in town because we became quick fans!

I like the branding, brightness of the cafe, and the fact that there's a decent amount of seating. I got the Iced French Vanilla Espresso Latte + Espresso Teddy which was well-made, bold, and enjoyable. I think the Espresso Teddy is actually made with cold brew and not espresso which I expected given the name and would have preferred. Nonetheless, I did enjoy the slow melt and the boost of caffeine I got as I kept sipping. And it's super cute! The Iced Mont Blanc was also a good try; the sweet orange flavor was subtle and surprisingly enjoyable adding a bright taste to each sip. If I'm ever back in Providence, I would totally come back and maybe try their matcha drinks.

I stopped in here to pick up an order for my husband. The order was ready as expected and I requested for them to gring them for French Press. They did it quickly and off I went. They have such a large variety of types, flavors, countries, etc, which makes this a very busy store for coffee lovers.

It's a great-looking spot in RI with a small patio and some limited parking in the back, but the atmosphere felt pretty unwelcoming. To be honest, as a person of color, I felt like we were treated differently than other customers. While the person taking our order was fine, the rest of the staff and even the patrons were snappy and rude, which really killed the vibe. It's a shame because the coffee itself is actually incredible. You can tell they really know what they're doing--the options are expansive and every cup is clearly well-crafted. If you're just in it for a high-quality brew and don't mind a side of cold energy, it might be worth it, but the lack of basic hospitality makes it hard to fully enjoy. A total "vibey" spot on the outside, but definitely lacked the warmth you'd expect from a local coffee shop.

    What a wonderful night out. Ellie's at Night was just amazing and we enjoyed every bit of our…read moreevening. 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!

    I came here as part of Providence Coffee Crawls. I had been here before and loved my experience, so…read moreI was looking forward to visiting again. 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.
