    No guac and no sausage

    Bullshit establishment, didn't get the orders right and charge me for food that wasn't even given. Will not order from here again. Trying to call them, no one answers the phone.

    The best breakfast/brunch spot in the area! It was my first time checking out Amy's Place and everything I got was above and beyond my expectations. They stop their food menu around 1pm on Saturdays and I made it just in the neck of time. The staff was patient and was happy to take my order, I got there just 3 mins before they stopped their food menu and put my order in right away and they were very accommodating. The breakfast sandwiches are amazing. I also got the Amy's burger and it has a nice kick to it. You can also add in a side of fries. The chai latte was amazinnnngggg! I was pleasantly shocked since I'm a big coffee lover - it did not disappoint. There's indoor and some outdoor seating and the service was quick.

    Maybe my expectations were a little high going in. After all, I've heard so many great things. Don't get me wrong, it's good! Potentially a little over hyped though. First, a warning. Do not wait inside for your food unless you want to smell like a deep fryer. The smoke from the kitchen grill permeates the whole place and you will leave smelling like you got off a 8 hour line cook shift. This place is pretty inexpensive. Seeing that I should have known better, but boy this was a sandwich for ants. Don't expect to come here and get full unless you get at least 2 of these if you have any kind of appetite. The bolo was nice. Soft, could have been a little more toasted IMO, but what was going on inside was better: pickled onion, cheese, egg, avocado and hot sauce. Texturally it was good (crisper bolo would have been a nice break from all the soft), the spinach helps a little with that, lending some crisp. Flavor was on point, the acidic and tart bite was really nice and very familiar for me because I lean into these flavors with my home cooking. Just know what you're getting when you come here. It's a simple breakfast sandwich shop and if you have those expectations, you'll love it. If you love cheffing up breakfast sandwiches at home, I'd probably pass.

    Back on the RI Food Fights #BestBreakfastSandwich trail, we stopped at Amy's Place in Fox Point. This tiny breakfast spot was packed! And for good reason - the food is delicious & comforting, worth every minute of the wait. We took our sandwiches to go. I selected the Sunday Sandwich: egg, american, bacon, hash brown, spicy aioli, guacamole, greens and tomato on a bolo. That's their description... this is mine: crispy bacon, a perfectly cooked egg, melted American cheese, fresh tomato & lettuce, creamy guac, a golden hash brown & a punchy garlic aioli, all piled onto a fluffy Portuguese bolo roll. It is the kind of sandwich you dream about after a long week. Yes, it's that good! Hubby selected The Hangover: egg, cheddar, bacon, spinach, sautéed onion, guacamole & hot sauce on a bolo. It absolutely lives up to its name - bold, satisfying & exactly what you want when you need a serious breakfast reset! Amy's isn't just about the sandwiches, either. The coffee is excellent, the smoothies are fresh & flavorful, burgers & tacos are unique creations. Everything comes out with that made-with-care feel that keeps you coming back for more. The space itself is small with limited indoor & outdoor seating, so it can get crowded pretty quickly. Pro tip: ordering ahead makes things much smoother if you are short on time. Perfect for small groups of two to four to dine in & anyone who plans ahead to takeout, Amy's Place continues to earn its reputation as one of Providence's best breakfast spots & a definite must-stop on the RI Food Fights trail!

    My friend and I came here on a weekend to grab, what we thought would be a "quick bite," but it ended up being a 25 ish minute wait. They were transparent about the wait - there was a sign and they told us before placing our order. The inside is small, but despite that, they are able to seat about 8-10 people between the high tables and the high chairs facing the windows. The menu is well organized and offers breakfast and brunch type foods - breakfast burritos and tacos, sandwiches, burgers, and the typical breakfast - eggs, bacon, potatoes. I was hungry and wanted something filling, so I decided to go with their burger. I was originally intending on getting Amy's burger, but I wanted cheddar instead, so I built my own burger. My friend had a sausage egg and cheese, with a latte. We waited inside, and then took the food to the car after. The burger was tasty, and still pretty juicy. The toppings were fresh and the cheese was perfectly melted. The bun was soft on the outside, but crispy on the inside. I loved the sauce, I wish there was more of it for additional flavor. You could ask for a double patty but I am glad I stuck with one; It was thick enough and allowed the rest of the flavors to be present. For $7, it was a good burger.

    We finally had the pleasure of trying Amy's last week! I think you should just come on over and check it out. I know a thing or two about breakfast sandwiches and it's CLEAR that the Amy's team does too. Great ingredients. Great ratios. Texturally sound. The cold brew was NOT too strong. Amen.

    1/2 Hash it Out, 1/2 of the Hangover with the Tropical Burst
    Rebecca B.

    I visited Amy's Place this past weekend to grab breakfast with a friend! On a Saturday morning, this place was PACKED out the door. Customers zooming in and out to pick up their orders and sitting all around the tables of the small location. It was about a 30 minute wait after we ordered so it's good to stop and shop by the local businesses in the area. We split the Hash It Out with bacon and The Hangover. Each sandwich has ingredients which compliment each other. Super delicious. Those sandwiches + the smoothies we had made me super full and satisfied. Make sure to add hot sauce for that extra kick! I wouldn't have this every weekend, but it was nice to try and I'd come back to try their other sandwich options.

    This was my first time at Amy's and wow! Their breakfast sandwiches are amazing! You can tell the show is loved because it was packed and people were willing to wait 30 minutes for food and beverage. And I can see why---it's amazing! I placed my order, walked around the neighborhood to shop, and came back. I hear they are opening a Newport location and I am very excited for that! I think the space will be a bit bigger and it will be closer to me! :)

    My first bite of food into the food scene in Providence and I fell in love. The sandwich in 30 degree weather was a great bite to start out my day. Though it might have been a mistake to grab a smoothie in the cold weather on a warmer day it would have paired better. The smoothie was fresh and very customizable. The only down side is the wait. The wait was about 20 minutes for my order since it was quite busy for 9 am. The sauce paired well with the protein and the portion was great. I can see why there was a massive line outside the door for this hidden local spot. The staff were also friendly and had great recommendations.

    Coffee was good and the breakfast wrap was delicious. It's a small place and not many tables to sit inside but still enjoyed my visit

    Stopped in here for a quick breakfast. I ordered an ice coffee and the hangover sandwich no onions... delicious and all in $13. Adorable place in a cute area of Providence

    Breakfast sandwich with bacon egg has brown cheese spinach aioli

    Great food but here is my concern. They've been open for years and still can't figure out a process to make the wait shorter for breakfast foods. I'm willing to wait 40 min when it's busy but the issue is- do they want customers to stand for 40 min waiting for names to be called? A text option would be great. Because without it people are trying to kill time walking around the neighborhood waiting for a sandwich but if it's done early - they have no way of knowing and now the food is cold. I waited in store today. Came out 10 late. And food was cold. Ridiculous

Their sandwiches are (to steal a line) superlative! You can get an awesome plain Jane deli sandwich (ie Turkey sub, ham & cheese, corned beef, etc) OR go through the literal DOZENS of concoctions of their signature sandwiches...you can't lose! Tucked in on South Main St now down by the pedestrian bridge, you can people watch the pedestrians (usually coming & going from either financial district/Downtown or the court houses as you await your culinary masterpiece to arrive)...you won't be disappointed! My current faves are Jen & Berry or The Juggs; but I have never had something that wasn't pleasing. There are long tables, so if you are by yourself or a small party & it is packed, you might have to share; but don't look at it as a drawback...look at it as connecting with a fellow human being(s).

The choices seem endless, but we finally selected: * Rachel * Roger Williams (hold the onions and tiger sauce) The former is a perennial favorite while the latter was a new choice. The Rachel was excellent, as usual, with tender pastrami, and nicely melted cheese. I also liked the Roger Williams which had a tasty stuffing. It was a huge sandwich, warm and nicely toasted. That said, I always prefer real turkey over the coldcut variety any day! 4.5 stars rounded up to 5.

They were already closed when I drove by yesterday evening so I wasn't able to see what it looked like inside. But for some reason, I felt compelled to give them a visit. After all, when it's cold like this...I have a tendency to find a bakery in the morning and go very carb-heavy with a nice hot mug of brewed tea or coffee. As I walked up, I was immediately awed by the snow covered outdoor patio. It was beautifully covered in a light layer of snow (obviously unused due to the weather) with little birds all fluffed up and perched atop some of the chairs. They sure looked like little caretakers of the area and were a very cute sight! Walking through the door immediately transported me out of the elements into a very warm and comfortable zone filled with the scent of freshly baked bread and pastries and fresh coffee grounds. Both happy and awake banter as well as sleepy groans enveloped the room. You could hear the staff buzzing around moving pastries and firing up fresh brews for those in line. It's pretty awake in here compared to everything else outside. Stepping up to look at the baked options on the front counter, I was greeted by one of the friendliest voices I've heard in a while. She was so cheerful that I couldn't help but wonder if it's the coffee or tea they serve here or the potent pastries lining the display shelves. Well, whatever it is, I definitely want what she had! I settled for a dirty chai and a couple of pastries and sat on one of the high tops beside my little feathery friends staring in from outside. Each sip divine. Each bite absolutely lovely. Even chatted with an older gentleman with the coolest indigenous soft cloth coat beside me. Everyone was friendly. Everyone was kind. They sure are not the usual sleepy and grumpy breakfast spot. I'll definitely be back when here in Providence 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.
