I had the Blueberry Cobbler and it was SO good. My friend loved her drink and said she'd be going there frequently. We both liked our food -- though I wish the bagels were a little more toasty as they were too soft for my liking! The service was quick!

The service is impeccable and the food is simple yet so delicious and their coffee can stand up to any coffee shop in Rhode island. I ordered the everything everything bagel.

It looks like they make all their muffins in house and I wish I got to try one, but since this will be part of our daily routine since we're here in Rhode Island for a week will definitely be back. There is plenty of parking in the back at the coffeehouse seats around 12 people and there is a nice lounge area next to a fireplace. Highly recommend this coffee house nice people, great service and good coffee.

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.

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!

First, I like the big tall windows and the patio area outside which I assume is very popular during warmer months. Second, I was captivated by the different cold brew drip towers they have going. They have a lot of unique drink flavors to choose from, of which I picked the honey lavender latte. At first I thought it was a little too sweet, but it grew on me by the second sip. I could actually taste both the lavender and the honey. The size was just right and the prices are also average. I stayed a little reading a book and found that is it a peaceful environment even though some people were studying and others were playing board games. I would come back to try other items. The staff was very friendly.

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!

They have menus on a counter if you're like me and can't see very well without glasses. The girls who served me were very kind and attentive. I ordered the frozen lemonade and the lion bagel sandwich. The lemonade was good- tasted like a powdered mix but wasn't unpleasant. The sandwich I thought was a little messy with the avocado and chipotle. A little on the gooey side. But I did love the crispy bacon and well cooked egg. The bagel was denser than I would have liked but did work well with the other ingredients. I'd definitely stop by the Coffee Cubby again in the future. This time I think I would just try a different order!

Our waitress was incredibly kind and knowledgeable of the menu. She answered any questions we had with no issue. As we left she apologized for the delay as they were understaffed. In truth, we didn't even notice. The service was excellent and we were in and out in less than 50 minutes. If this was tough night for them I can't imagine how stellar their service is on a good night! Congrats! For food we ordered the burrata pesto dip, crab cakes, and curry chicken lettuce cups. The "dip" was more of a plate of burrata with pesto and 4 pieces of bread. The cheese and pesto were great but we wished there were 2 more pieces of bread to split. The curry chicken was delicious. Probably my favorite of the meal. The curry spices were excellent, lettuce crisp, and I loved the addition of the cranberries. I didn't think it would come out as a chicken salad consistency but it didn't hinder the dish. The only miss were the crab cakes. Obviously crab is seafood but I found the cakes to be very fishy. The consistency was off and became mushy pretty quickly. When we return I'd skip these. Three tapas, one mai tai, and a mocktail came out to $88. Not as bad as I was expecting and we would definitely come back again to try some other menu items.
