My boyfriend and I love it here and we came immediately the next day :) Please visit this place & share some love to them from me: a super satisfied Californian!

I'm quite the cookie monster. I can't help it. Cookies are one of my weaknesses. I was craving…read moresomething sweet and decided to check out this bakery in Bowen's Wharf. As soon as I walked in, I could smell the aroma of freshly baked goods. I thought this was a good sign that I was about to eat some damn good cookies. They only have classic flavors like chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, peanut butter, snickerdoodle, etc. I expected more variety, but oh well. I bought three for $7.50. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either. For the price, they were tiny and thin! They could have been a lot softer and chewier. I expected more from a place that advertises their main product in their business name. Look at Chip City, Insomnia Cookies, and Crumbl. Honestly? I've had better from the bakery sections at ShopRite and Costco. Other than cookies, they sell a few other pastries like brownies, muffins, and cinnamon buns. They also serve breakfast sandwiches until noon. There's a self-service coffee station to the side. I'm being a bit generous with 3 stars. I don't recommend this place unless you want to pay for overpriced, mediocre cookies.

If you are ever in the Newport area, you have to try this place! My husband and I went to Newport…read morefor Valentine's Day and saw this place on our way to Newport from our hotel. We had to go for breakfast the next morning. Our moths dropped at how many varieties and everything else they had. We spent $30 but we came away with more than we would have at Dunkin's! We got two of the malassadas, a Boston cream, an apple fritter, a bow tie, a coffee roll, one of their giant donuts, two zeppoles, and a coffee roll and hot chocolate. We knew we would only eat the malassadas and one other donut. We planned to bring the coffee roll, the giant donuts, and zeppoles home to share. We ended up bringing all of that plus the bow tie and apple fritter. The malassada filled me up and my husband ate his and most of his Boston cream. The malassada is a deep fried roll with sugar on it. Think of a thick (about an inch) fried dough. It was so soft and heavenly u like fried dough. My husband's donut was so good. I tried it and it had a very nice ratio of chocolate, delicious custard, and donut. Probably one of the best I've had in a long time. The service was great! The guy that took our order was super patient and explained what stuff was. The zeppole isn't the Italian ones we are used to but it has a Portuguese twist. It is a Portuguese donut instead of an Italian pastry. I can't wait to try it tonight!

This place used to be good. It's been purchased by new owners and the place is absolute trash now…read more They cut corners in every possible way, nothing is made the way it should be anymore. For example, the apple fritters have no apple... it's not an apple fritter it's just a hunk of fried dough coated with glaze. Honestly the most disappointing thing I've experience in a long time. It sucks to see a great business get taken over and completely trashed.

Root is a nice vegan spot in Newport with a simple, comfortable setup and a straightforward menu…read more Nothing fancy, but it feels welcoming and easy to order from. I had the BBQ jackfruit sandwich, and it was really good. The flavor was smoky and slightly sweet, and the texture worked surprisingly well. My partner tried the Arriva grain bowl, which was fresh and layered with flavor without being heavy. Both dishes tasted well thought out and clearly made with care. The menu has a good mix of bowls, sandwiches, smoothies, and baked items, so it's easy to find something whether you're fully plant-based or just looking for a healthier option. Prices seemed reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. Service was friendly, and things came out at a steady pace. Overall, Root feels like a solid place to go for a good vegan meal in town. I'd definitely come back for the food, especially that jackfruit sandwich.

The place seemed to be older so the door was stuck and staff had to come struggle to open it. Inside is typical of ice-cream shop with counter and the cooler with different type of gelato/sorbet. They have variety of flavors and some interesting one like Dubai chocolate, mandarin and Maine blueberry. They do let you try if you ask so if you are not sure you can ask to try them. I ended up getting large just so i can try different flavors and it's also just $1 difference from each size. I ended up getting Belgian chocolate, peanut butter browny and chocolate chip affogato flavors. They were all very tasty. I was impressed by the Belgian chocolate as it was super rich chocolate flavor i was looking for a while. Service was good but the staff did struggle with the door and had issue with credit card reader too. Maybe should be more ready for customer when they open. Overall i still liked their gelato and would be a good stop for frozen treat in Newport.

The service was quick and the shop itself is small, but no issue as there's plenty of space to eat outdoors or walk around and enjoy your treat.
