Friendly people, but donuts were a little too thick. Big donuts are nice, but it was almost too doughy. They're changing to ri guys donuts soon. read more

The service was friendly and quick. The prices of coffee was cheaper than Dunkin and Starbucks. Their doughnuts were fuffy and tasty. Not bad for your average mama and papa coffee shop. read more

The tank. ..yessssssssss. Bess Eaton is back in Wakefield with their enormous - more -than - you - should - consume iced coffee in their signature environmentally unfriendly Styrofoam cup. The TANK. This drink could have been the nectar of the gods...if the gods were over-caffeinated freaks. I know that I shouldn't drink one of these gigantic iced coffees after 2pm because it pretty much guarantees a crappy night of sleep for me. But - I do it anyway because I LOVE my iced coffee made with crushed ice. It melts as you sip AND doubles as a crunchy snack once you've sucked every last drop of coffee outta that cup. Of course, it gives me the giddy-up that I need at the mid-day hour. Could I get that rush with the medium iced coffee? Yup. But there is something empowering about swooshing around a full 32 ounces on a hot summer day. The brew is robust and flavorful. I prefer their iced version over DD because here the iced coffee is consistent. Not always the case at the other place where it ranges from good to really, REALLY bad. Their hot coffee at Bess Eaton is good as well, but I come here strictly for the iced stuff. A medium, hot black is few and far between for me here. Friendly service. Muffins and bagels are fresh. No donut trials yet so can't comment there. My only disappointment is that I have yet to be offered a Tank club card. You buy 9 Tanks and get your 10th free. Just discovered this club looking on-line just now. I want to be part of that inner circle! (and get some free coffee out of it) Looks like there are also some other decent coupons to check out on the web site. So glad this Rhode Island institution is back in business in the heart of Wakefield. Super! read more

Bess Eaton - the outside of a coffee shop - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Wakefield, Rhode Island

The coffee is so much better than when it was Timmy's. The people are ALWAYS nice and welcoming. The prices are better than anywhere else in town that's even half as good. And their drive thru window is LIGHTNING FAST. They get your order and have your food in your hand in literally like 90 seconds almost every time I go there, and yet they don't make you feel like they're rushing you. Funny story: One time a couple years ago my van overheated and stalled right as got to the window and I literally couldn't move it. The poor soul that was serving me at the time looked so panicked! But thankfully there's just enough of a grade I was able to put it in neutral and get out of the way and not hold up the people behind me more than a minute or three. Anyway, I recommend them highly, especially if you're short on time! read more

We love Bess Eaton iced coffees the TANK is what we always order, so we took a 35 minute drive to get 3 of them well we get there it's only 5:58 pm their website says they close at 7. We pull up to the speaker and tell us we're closed..... I couldn't believe that they wouldn't make us 3 Tank iced coffees... I'm very disappointed and probably will not be returning... I will let all of our friends know also. It's too bad, poor customer service read more

Amazing coffee I go here every morning before school and always shoot for their "tank" which is their version of a large. Absolutely amazing would recommend!!! read more

Better than the dunks down the street, and far more familiar than the 'bucks in eyeshot of the place. I wanted the Tank, but knew better. The medium iced, cream only was exactly as I remember from the 10+ years its been since I've had a proper Bess Eaton Coffee. Crushed ice sealed the deal. The place itself is a bess eaton come tim horton's come bess eaton, and as they had much of the tim horton equipment they had a sandwich menu and several soup options. I didn't sample any of their offerings meal wise or sweet wise. They still offer the tank club (buy 9 get one free) which would be perfect for someone that needs to fuel up on high test before heading to the beach for the day. And a major plus (at least in my book) no more biblical quotes on the hot cups!! read more

My wife insists this is the best coffee in town. Friendly service every time. Coconut donut is delicious.

Bess Eaton is the best place. The staff is wonderful and you look forward to seeing them. They even give dog treats at the drive thru. We love their breakfast sandwiches especially on the Asiago cheese bagel. The donuts are delicious and so fresh. They also have bess bites as well. They have a great lunch menu. You can get the newspaper there as well so one stop shopping. read more

Bess Eaton is the reason I love coffee. Back during my days at URI, Bess Eatons were a coffeehouse staple all over Rhode Island and the coffee was delicious! They were known for 3 things: - crushed ice - Biblical verses on the side of the cup - amazing iced coffee!!! The Bess Eaton franchises all closed down several years back but have returned with a few locations in South County. And while the Biblical verses may gone with the old, Bess Eaton is back with amazing coffee and crushed ice! And it's just as good as you remember! read more

This place is so good. They have almost everything and anything under the sun. They have ice cream, pastries, bagels, coffees.... sandwiches! Huge selection to choose from. They are like a coffee shop XL (they serve more than what I would consider a regular coffee shop to serve). Speaking of XL, they sell XL coffees in a huge styrofoam cup to keep your coffee iced cold. Delicious coffee, friendly staff, yummy food. What else do you need!? read more

Classic RI coffee and donut shop. Offering lunch sandwich specials as well. The donuts are fresh and their coffee is always spot on. Drive through or counter service. The real draw here is their service. There are a few ladies who've worked here for years. Locals for sure who always treat you with kindness and always are so appreciative of your patronage. I come here several times a year and place a large party order which when ordered in advance is always ready for pickup . read more

Nothing is better first thing in the morning than having a friendly voice over the intercom while going through the drive-thru. The inside is great too but I am usually an on the way to work customer. Other Coffee shops have lines with a different face each morning... not as consistent as I like. I prefer the coffee over other large chain coffee shops. it isn't harsh and bitter. If I want a dark coffee I will go with an espresso from a specialty cafe. Thank You Bess Eaton for the right way to start my day! read more

These guys have never failed to impress me. Love their food products and especially their coffee. Whenever we're at the beaches or down that way we are sure to stop in before returning home. read more

You can NOT go wrong with this place! The tank is huge, and it is so reasonably priced, and tastes amazing. Their coffee is better than any in town in my opinion. The staff is very friendly and efficient, and I think the best think they could have done was reopened. All it takes is for people to see what they are missing (which is a lot when we're talking about Bess Eaton!) read more
