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.

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.

Oh my! This was my first visit to this lovely cafe and I can't wait to go back. My friend and I…read morevisited for dessert after having dinner nearby, and the pastry case was full of delctable treats, even though it was the end of the day. It was hard to make a decision, but I went with a croissant stuffed with chocolate, fresh strawberries and whipped cream, while my friend went with the Chocolate Mousse Santiago tart. Let me just say, that both were rich, high quality, perfectly prepared, and amazing. I really don't think you could go wrong with anything you order here. I wasn't in the mood for coffee, but my friend enjoyed a nice cup of hot tea. At first I thought the prices were a little high, but after I considered the high quality of the ingredients anad the generous sizing, I think their prices are right on target. The cafe eating area is spacious and is perfect for conversations or quiet work. The entire cafe is super clean and the employees were friendly and helpful. I will definitely be back!

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.

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.

They offer both sweet and savory croissants, and every one I've tried has been incredible. The pistachio croissant is perfectly flaky with just the right amount of sweetness, while the spinach and goat cheese croissant is packed with flavor and makes for a delicious savory treat. The quality of the pastries is outstanding, and you can tell they're made with care. On top of that, the service is always fast and friendly, making the entire experience even better. Whether you're grabbing a coffee and pastry on the go or looking for a new favorite breakfast spot, Brown Bee is definitely worth checking out!

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!
