I was a little hungry so I ordered avocado toast and a latte with oat milk/pumpkin again. -1 star because I was charged extra and the barista changed my order from a coffee with 1 pump pumpkin to a pumpkin spice latte. The avocado toast was one of the most gross things I've ever tasted. There was WAY too much balsamic vinegar on it and I hated that it was thick. I love avocado toast but the balsamic vinegar was too overpowering. Aside from that, the toast was thick and the avocado tasted/looked fresh. If I order from here again, I'd definitely avoid adding balsamic to the toast.

Service was quick, and the staff was very friendly! The aesthetic of the trailer was also super cute. I honestly wish they had a brick-and-mortar location!

Luckily, they do have a large space with lots of tables and some couches so finding a seat wasn't a problem. Their menu includes drinks and food (breakfast and lunch). My friend and I shared the BOM sandwich which comes on a Portuguese BOLO with gruyere cheese, roasted red peppers, onion, spinach, BOM sauce, chorizo, and fried egg. For our drinks I had a cinnamon crunch iced coffee with whole milk and coconut cold foam and my friend had one of the coff-tails. I took in all the artwork around the walls while I waited for our order to come out. They brought the sandwich out to us, but I went up to the counter to get the drinks. The sandwich was incredibly good, especially the BOM sauce that was a little spicy. The sausage was thick and well cooked, and the veggies tasted fresh. The bread was very good too but I wish it was slightly toasted (next time). My drink was good. It was not sweet at all, which the cashier did prepare me for, but it still tasted good to me. The milk and coconut cold foam made it very creamy and the coconut flavor was very present throughout. We paid around $20 for the sandwich and two drinks which is fair. They have a drive thru window on the left side of the building, with the line wrapping around the back of the building, with plenty of parking in the front and back for dining in.

What is it with Rhode Island and its incredible independent coffee houses?…read moreUp in Lincoln is Fundati -- A Coffee Experience, and what a gem. It's a cute, welcoming shop with genuinely nice staff and a lot of personality. I had a fantastic cold brew topped with maple cold foam, along with The Hot One -- egg, cheese, hot honey butter and chorizo on a locally made bolo. The bolo was incredible: beautifully toasted on the outside, soft inside, with that wonderful hot honey butter playing against the spicy chorizo, egg and melted cheese. Absolutely scrumptious. You can tell there's a lot of love here -- in the food, in the coffee, and in the shop itself. Fundati is another reminder of just how lucky Rhode Island is to have so many terrific independent coffee houses. What a gem!

Hygiene Issues, Not great Coffee, Out of Paper Filters for pour over…read more I went in with high expectations, I planned to order the light Ethiopian Roast pour over and was quickly informed there were no paper filters and I couldn't get a pour over. In the pastry case my mother and I counted 4 flies and even a bee flying around the food! I proceeded to order a cold brew as a back up and usually enjoy Cold Brew and Dutch brew (especially brewed from the towers) but it didn't hit the spot, it was just ok. The price for a small cold brew was over $6 not including the tip which felt pricy for no cold foam or any inclusions. The interior was nice and there were a lot of people, but based on what I saw I won't be returning.

Wow - this may have just become my favorite coffee! I ordered the Beach Bum - a summer seasonal latte with coconut, hazelnut and vanilla as an iced coffee and it was absolutely delicious. It earned a permanent spot in my cup holder for the drive home and I was already thinking about my next visit before I got there. The shop itself is cute and welcoming. I even had the chance to watch Scott Groome painting a new mural outside and it's going to look fantastic. The staff were friendly, patient and happy to answer my questions, which made the visit even better. My only complaint is that the menu changes a little too quickly. There were drinks I wanted to come back and try that were already gone! That's probably just another reason I'll have to keep stopping by. I'll definitely be back soon to finally get my own latte bucket!

I stopped by here earlier today for my morning coffee. This was actually the second day in a row…read morethat I stopped by, as I like to patronize local coffee shops. The Coffee Cubby is located on Old River Road in Manville and was on my way to work. The shop itself is divided into two areas: a four-seasons room with plenty of seating and a smaller area with all of their baked goods and the ordering counter. The first day I was here, I ordered a large hot blueberry coffee cake coffee. While I expected it to be a latte, it ended up being a flavored coffee instead. The coffee itself was just okay. I could definitely taste some spice, maybe cinnamon, but there was also a bitterness that wasn't particularly pleasant. So while some sips were good, others were not. On the second day, I ended up ordering a large pumpkin s'mores latte, sans the mocha. When I saw the size of my iced coffee, I was impressed, as it was massive, even if it did cost around $10. The flavor ended up being pretty good, with a combination of pumpkin and marshmallow flavoring. I don't know that I could have told you there was coffee in it, but I still enjoyed it. Even though it was fairly sweet, it wasn't overly sweet for my taste buds. The bottom line for me is that I would stop by here again in the future. They have a sign claiming to have the best iced coffee in Rhode Island, and I can see why they might be proud of their drinks!
