Borealis has been a regular stop for me for years now, and I'm overdue writing a review. The…read moreBristol location is the newest and is tucked into a converted mill building on Wood Street. Tt has everything you'd want from a great coffee shop: comfortable seating, plenty of room to spread out and work, a rentable conference room, and something you would not expect from a coffee shop, the Aurora Bar, stocked with a nice selection of local spirits and other favorites. My partner and I stopped in for a quick nibble for lunch on Sunday and this was perfect. My partner went with the Caprese sandwich, which is served on a pressed ciabatta with fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, roasted red peppers, spinach, pesto mayo, and balsamic. It was simple and tasty, and I was lucky enough to get a couple bites! I went with the Chicken Bacon Ranch Wrap, which was also simple, but packed with flavor. It had all the obvious ingredients with the addition of pickles, which added such a nice briny little punch and really hit the spot. Something worth noting: both of our items were ordered from the laminated menu at the register, not in the beautiful leather-bound Aurora Bar menu, which appears to be an evening menu with cocktails and other tasty food items. For drinks, I went with an espresso tonic; the slight bitterness of the quinine plays really nicely against the bold espresso, and it's one of those combinations that's refreshing in a way that's hard to explain until you try it. One small note for the team: the Riverside location has always had a real warmth and cohesion to the staff that I haven't quite felt at Bristol. It's not a dealbreaker by any stretch, but a little more energy behind the counter would go a long way. Still a five-star spot, as the coffee and the space more than make up for it.

I came here to see a friend of mine play live jazz music with his band and it was such a cute and…read moreawesome experience! The vibes were great, there was plenty of room for our party (we had 7 of us), and it didn't feel crowded at all despite the number of people that were in the coffee shop. I think that the only downside that I would say for our experience is that the drinks at the bar took FAR too long, although they were good! We came here in the evening, but I would definitely love to pop in at some point during the day because I do think that this would be a wonderful little study spot!

Great sandwiches and the best caramel latte I've ever had. Service was good, we'll define backread more

Yesterday I went in for my coffee that I've been drinking for the past 35 years: two shots of espresso with a splash of oat milk over ice. A staff member came out from the back and began yelling at me at the counter. I am a faculty member at Roger Williams and I was there with a student and line was to the door behind me. "that's a latte! you're just being cheap! I know its a Tik Tok Hack!" I'm 56. I've never been on Tik Tok. I wasn't trying to "hack" anything. I just wanted a splash of oatmilk in my $4 2 oz coffee. I told her I didn't know what she was going on about ridiculing in front of everyone in the restaurant. Then, she rolled her eyes and told me "I'll give you a thimble-full. That's it.!" My coffee came out completely black. She didn't even put enough in to change the color. seriously, what is wrong with people? if I was not there with the Student, I would have walked out.

It was really good. My wife had a pistachio latte and that's actually what she had this time too because she loved it so much. This time I tried the Ube coconut latte. I really enjoyed it more than I thought I would as I've never had it before. I'm usually a sesame latte type of girl, but there's not a place to get that around this area. My friend had a T, although she did want the tea latte, but it came with tonic water. It didn't seem like there was an option when speaking with the girl at the register to not have it with the tonic water, which I found rather interesting. I like the vibe in here and the coffee is good so we'll definitely be back. The service could be a little bit better, but I assume as time goes by, they'll get in their groove and that'll improve too. Definitely check it out if you're in Warren.

The shop is chic and adorable all in one. From the outside to every detail inside; it's a beautiful cafe! The help was wonderful.

I would love green cold foam and lucky charms on top!

It's an adorable coffee shop and vegan lunch spot. I was told they've been there coming up on 7 years! We ordered our iced coffee which was perfectly made.

Exceeded my expectations. I got the breakfast bowl special which has farro, peppers, onions,…read morepotatoes, and topped with an egg - it was a really tasty bowl. The ingredients were actually cooked together and well seasoned making for a cohesive dish rather than one of those bowls that just dumps separate ingredients into a bowl that lacks flavor. Would get this again for sure. My only complaint is that my egg was covered in black specs which appeared to be burnt cast iron residue. The honey lavender scone was also great - nice texture - almost biscuit like tbh, and the lavender flavor was a little too subtle for me to really taste, but I still enjoyed it. The place is cute as well but be warned they don't let you use a laptop here which I'm not a fan of. I didn't have a laptop on me but I know a lot of people like to go to cafes and do some work. My friends got sandwiches and they rated them 10/10. The bread looked like they had the perfect texture.

We needed a reservation for the bar seating because the limited tables were all booked. Reservations are a must days in advance. We tried three different appetizers, grilled cauliflower, steamers, and grilled octopus. We were very pleased with all three dishes. Flavor popped on every bite. For entrees we had the Nola Style Shrimp N' Grits, Folklore Burger, Salmon and Chicken Bowl specials. The Portuguese cooking style created mouth watering bites and succulent flavors. We were all very content, and full after our meals.

Ordered the clam chowder which was very good. It leans towards a Rhode Island Chowder, which I prefer vs. the creamy New England Chowder. Nice flavor, and the dice chourico was visible . I only found it a bit salty and it was served with a Portuguese roll. I also ordered the Cacoila sandwich which was also served with on a Portuguese roll and I opted for the seasoned fries which were very tasty. The pork was tender and flavorful, but again a bit salty for me. I don't use a lot of salt and my tolerance and taste of salt is low. Otherwise the sandwich & chowder had some nice flavors.
