They do have overhead lights, but most of the clarity was coming in through the windows. I wanted something refreshing so I ordered a blueberry lemon iced tea and for my mom, I ordered her a vanilla latte. While we waited, we secured the couch facing the entrance that we were eyeing - very comfortable indeed. One of the staff members delivered the drinks to us which was very kind of them. My tea was cold and refreshing, but a big underwhelming with flavor. My mom's latte had a nice design in the foam and was good, especially since it was not overly sweet. We really liked the calm vibes in here and the simple but classy interior design.

We ordered an oolong tea and a chocolate donut--the donut was honestly one of the best I've ever had. The tea was good, though not quite my husband's taste. Service was friendly and attentive, and the space itself is great--you can enter from the street on the side of the museum (up the hill) or walk directly into the museum from the café. Overall, a very enjoyable stop and worth checking out if you're nearby.

I was looking for a nearby tea house and saw that this place was about to close. I called, and the girl who answered the phone was so kind she said she would wait for us. When we arrived, the owner was extremely nice and welcoming. I ordered tea for my younger daughter, who loved both the tea and the atmosphere. I also ordered tea for my college-bound daughter who wasn't feeling well. When I explained that she was very sick and had requested tea, the owner not only brought out her drink but also made her a second one special, just for her saying he hoped she would feel better. That thoughtful gesture meant so much to us. This place is adorable, the service is amazing, and they've definitely gained another loyal customer. We'll absolutely be back.

This continues to be my favorite waffle place in the country. They are constantly releasing…read moredifferent flavors to stay on top of trends and they never fail. For this visit, some people in my group ordered the matcha waffle: matcha silky cream, chocolate drizzle, topped with fresh strawberries, while others including myself got the ube waffle: ube silky cream, drizzled condensed milk, and topped with fresh blueberries, bananas, raspberries, and coconut shavings. By default, these were on the liege waffle which is personally my favorite since it has a crispy and caramel like consistency. The ube cream was very creamy and smooth. The condensed milk was a great touch, as it acted like a syrup. The fresh fruits helped balance out the sweetness. The matcha one was also good. It reminded me a little of the dubai chocolate combination, mostly because of the colors. I've been seeing them add more and more drinks to the menu - mostly ones that resemble the waffle flavors. The prices have not changed much and they're still reasonable for the quality and quantity. There is plenty of seating in the lower area of their store. It is off of Thayer street so depending on the day, parking can be tough.

I recently tried this coffee spot and thought it was just okay overall. The drinks didn't have as…read moremuch flavor as I was expecting. I ordered the crème brûlée coffee, and while it wasn't bad, it mostly just tasted like regular coffee without that rich, dessert like flavor you'd hope for. On the other hand, the tiramisu latte was actually really delicious. Honestly, I wish I could order a whole cake of just the tiramisu, it was the highlight for me. You definitely get more cake than the coffee, but it worked in its favor and tasted much better than the crème brûlée drink. It was nice to try, especially since everything looks so aesthetically pleasing, but it feels more like a place you visit for the vibe rather than a go to coffee run.

Love the vibe here. I've been to Europe a few times and this has an exact feel as a patisserie in…read moreEurope. However, prices are not even close. I ordered an apple tart and a small piece was $7.50! Yes, it was good, and the cream was wonderful, but paying about $2 per bite is outrageous. The value of their drinks might be a little better. I ordered a Cortado and it was delicious. The volume of liquid wasn't too low. $4.25 I would give it 3 stars, but I know not everyone is good with money and many are willing to pay these prices on the east side Providence. The staff was nice, but nothing over the top.

Met up with some friends at Madrid on a Saturday. With so many good reviews we were excited to try…read morethis location. Sadly it wasn't a very good experience. First, the young woman who took care of us seemed to keep 'checking out', as in, she seemed to temporarily fall asleep with her eyes open. She would become non-responsive and we'd just wait for her to acknowledge us and then repeat what we said. So that's weird. Even after she said 'OK' and went over to the register to ring it all in, we had to repeat the order, again. The Americano coffee was not made correctly. It literally tasted like dirty water. Definitely did not use the appropriate amount of espresso in this drink. The Mocha was not blended correctly and was grainy with a lot of sediment at the bottom of the cup. I was unable to finish drinking that. The friends we met up with mentioned they are surprised how many tables were open on a Saturday. In the past there was 'always a line' of people ordering and waiting for a table. During our visit there were several empty tables. The pastry were very tasty though, so that was nice. They do have a nice selection of pastry available and we might try some more of those offerings another time. The ambiance is very cute. Bus your own tables. On street parking.

The drink was very aesthetically pleasing and it tasted wonderful. The staff were very friendly. I couldn't think of the name of the drink to order, but I mentioned that I saw it on Instagram and the staff member knew exactly what I was talking about and described it. Another time I had their strawberry matcha latte, but preferred their honey lavender matcha latte and the earth day matcha. It's just personal preference since I know many people who like their strawberry matcha latte.

Super flaky and a lot of delicious flavor from the filling and garnishes. It was very busy when I stopped by midday. They were out of some items already (I missed out on trying the French onion croissant before they replaced it with another menu item). I did find a spot to sit outside but I can see it being even harder to find a seat during peak times. It's a bit off the beaten path yet it's known and popular for a reason. I'm looking forward to visiting again and trying more items and of course the coffee!

It was a Wednesday afternoon, and I was craving a good latte. I had seen this place on social media…read moreand added it to my list of cafes to visit. There is a parking lot in the back, but I was not sure if it was for the café or apartments downstairs, so I just found street parking nearby. The inside gave me Spaniard vibes because of the cream, smooth walls and dark wooden accents. The following were the two things that instantly caught my attention when I walked in: They have merchandise on display for sale and it seems like high quality material and they had a vehicle made of croissants on display, maybe about 1.5 ft x 1 ft x 6 inches. They have their pastries on display which helps visualize what you're getting before buying it. They are unique and big in size. Their drink menu is good and includes a mix of teas (including matcha) and coffee. I went with the bee latte which was supposed to have honey, cardamom, and cayenne. I was interested in seeing how sweet, herbal/minty, and spicy would taste together. I was also [easily] self-convinced into getting a Za'atar croissant. After our order came out, we walked outside and sat at their patio area which has about 5-6 tables enough for two people each. The latte was good. I appreciated how it was not sweet, but I did think the cardamom was too subtle. It seemed like the cayenne was powder just sprinkled on top and I might've inhaled half of it on my first sip, so I was dying a bit. The Za'atar croissant was given to us in a brown paper box with the outside of their building drawn onto it. Since we asked for it toasted, it was warm and extra crispy/flaky on top. It was flat (about 1 inch thick) and about 6 inches in diameter, so big enough to share if you're just interested in a light snack. The inside of every swirl was packed with olive oil, middle eastern herbs, and lots of sesame seeds. Although it may take away from the traditional flavors and way of eating it, I wish it came with something to dip it into like whipped cream cheese or smashed olives. Nonetheless, it was delicious. On weekends, they have a laptop free policy which I think it good to allow for more people to enjoy, rather than people taking up tables for a while to do work.

The carrot cake and banana crème are my hands down favorites, but the lemon cake is very closely behind. Even items like scones that aren't typically amongst my favorites, are made very well.
