    Tofu scramble with sliced tomatoes.
    Christena B.

    I got the tofu scramble and a decaf coffee & everything was delicious! I've been talking about it for days. The service was so great and accommodating when I told them that I had gastric bypass surgery and couldn't have the toast or hash browns, she was willing to substitute it for sliced tomatoes for me. The cafe looks like a perfect old-school diner and I sat at the counter, which was really nice. This will definitely be a staple from now on!

    Very yummy and very relaxing. Feel right at home!! I had the vegan wrap and my boyfriend had the skipper super good!! And great waitress

    We've stopped into this breakfast and lunch spot in the past, but it's been a while. We don't often find ourselves on this stretch of Rt. 1A during meal time, but as we were in the area, at the right time, we stopped in for lunch. There is parking on the side of the building by the trees and in the back. The entrance is on the Rt 1a side of the building. Inside there are several small tables in the front part of the building, including two by the windows each side of the door, as well as a few counter stools. Behind a partition wall are a few booth seats. The interior is nothing to write home about. Linoleum tile floor peeling, lots of electrical wires added to the walls for things like AC and appliances. But you are not here for ambiance you are here for food and everything is clean. They have tried to make it as cozy as possible The staff are super friendly and efficient. They serve breakfast throughout open hours as well as lunch by late morning. We were told to have a seat anywhere and menu's were brought over. During our visit every table but one was full, so definitely a favorite with the locals. On the wall to the right of the entrance is a 'blackboard' type application where they write the specials and there were quite a few including soup of the day and baked goods for take away. They had many take out orders during our visit and the staff clearly knew these folks as they chatted familiarly during their purchase. We ordered sandwiches for lunch. They come with a pickle, which is both sweet and sour as well as crisp. Fries are a la carte, which is fine, because these sandwiches really filled us up. There was plenty of meat in there, and the rolls were warm and soft. A very satisfying meal. Actually, it was more than enough to fill my stomach. I left stuffed. The price for the sandwiches was reasonable and the food quality good. There is one tiny restroom tucked in behind some tables that you have to squeeze by to enter. It was clean and stocked. All together we had a pleasant lunch.

    Ate in the cute nook here. Service was lovely. Prices are amazing. I built myself an avocado toast sandwich

    Friendly service, relaxing vibe and absolutely delicious food! I had the banana bread French toast with a side of scrambled eggs and cheese and my husband had the Skippers plate and we just ate way more than we should have! Fast service and lots of seating! We will definitely be back again!

    Best lobster benny, very sweet meat, excellent sauce, great service, and clean bathroom. I suspect this is a favorite of my locals here. I will be back

    Counter seating, full up (or nearly so)

    Decent diner with old-school swivel-stool counter seating, friendly service, and all the standard comfort foods you'd expect - plus some nice specials that are always well worth considering. My colleague opted for breakfast - and it looked good! - consisting of scrambled eggs, toast, ham, and home fries. I went for the lunch side of the menu and had a brace of hot dogs with sauerkraut, fries, and cole slaw. Solid and satisfying. It's a lively place, fills up fast, so I'd advise you come early to ensure being seated quickly!

    Great neighborhood spot near Wickford. Limited seating so you may wait. Feels like an old timey breakfast spot with good prices and classic menu items and furnishings. Simple yet good. We especially enjoyed the mocha cold brew from local coffee shop, Nitro Cart. Also enjoyed the eggs Benedict with corned beef hash.

    Very tasty food here at this very popular breakfast/lunch cafe. Because of its popularity, you will have a wait. We were here on a Sunday morning just prior to a February snowstorm around 10 am and it was packed. They have a pager system, where you need to walk up to the cashier/waitress to get the device and then wait for your number to be called. I saw some local regular customers, who were greeted by name, go wait in their car with the device. We ate at the counter and were served by a VERY friendly waitress, who clearly knew her regular customers by name. The servings were generous and my blueberry pancakes were fluffy and wonderful. My spouse's Swiss cheese omelet with bacon bits and hash browns were very satisfying, he said. I asked to bring my remaining coffee to go and was pleasantly surprised when I was given a large coffee cup topped off with hot coffee. Nice touch! I would visit here again, but will make sure to plan some time to get a table/seat.

    Tuna melt
    Syp V.

    Reliable, simple, and hearty brunch/lunch food done well and at a great price! I mean avo toast for under $4 is impossible to find! I've heard so many great things about this cute place. It lives up to the hype! It's a no-frills but charming little diner with the metal countertop and stools and all. I could tell right away our waitress was experienced, friendly, and a straight-shooter...just my style. We both got a bowl of the chicken, artichoke Florentine soup (note: it's creamy, not clear broth like I had expected) which was delish. Perfect size too. I got a Tuna Melt with curly fries while my hubby got the Reuben and a spinach/pineapple/mango green shake (great that it was all natural but seemed like the fruits weren't super ripe so was a little on the bland side). Both sandwiches were generously filled and came with homemade pickles. Overall, was very pleased with our quick meal! My only nit is that the giant "Rome Point Next Door" sign with the arrow pointing right towards a door is extremely confusing. I didn't realize there's a second smaller coffee shop called "Rome Point Next Door." The arrow adds confusion unless it's intentional? It made it seem like the entrance to the actual restaurant was past the door to the right. I wonder how often people get that mixed up!! Poor usability/customer experience that started us off on a bad foot since it was raining and we were walking around trying to find the entrance.

    Was looking for new breakfast diners at 5:30AM and one of the places that had many positive reviews was Rome Point Cafe so we decided to try it out. It was full when we first entered so we had to wait for a few minutes to get seated. They were quick to clean a table for us when a party left and gave us menus immediately. We ordered 'The Skipper' and 'Eggs Benedict'. For toast, they had their home made rosemary toast that smelled amazing. We had read the reviews about their blueberry pancakes so of course our choice of pancakes were blueberry and they did not disappoint. The hash browns were golden and crispy. The diner also uses local products such as Rhed's hot sauce which were amazing on our home fries and hash browns. The hollandaise sauce on top of the Benedict was flavorful and savory. I was craving a tomato bisque and fortunately the diner served some which satisfied my craving. The staff seemed to knows it regulars and had opened conversations with those as they were serving tables and bringing food items to the customers. Would recommend this spot for any early birds or even brunch!

The weather was nice, so we chose to sit out back under the lovely umbrellas and look over the water. They also have adirondack chairs set out, so I imagine it would be a lovely spot for a cocktail and a chat with friends! Our server, Lena, was a DREAM and helped us make our choices. I got a seasonal latte while my partner got the medium-roast pourover coffee. Having had a hard time finding really great coffee recently, we were soooo impressed. They clearly take their coffee program seriously (and now I realize the name should have tipped me off!). The food was equally impressive. It legitimately didn't have to be as good as it was (lol). The yogurt bowl on any menu is usually "meh," but we gave it a try since we wanted some non-meat protein and I am SO glad we did. It was the best yogurt bowl I've ever had- no contest. The whole milk yogurt was creamy; the strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries were ripe; the honey and granola added crunch and some floral sweetness; and the best part was the raspberry preserves they pipe on top. I wish I could recreate this at home! We also loved the lemon poppyseed loaf with blueberry preserves and cream. Another quick brunch addition that could have been simple, but had so much thought put into the flavors. Overall, a big fan and I'll be back!

We asked to sit outside and were stunned by the epic views of the docks that they have. It truly was a breathtaking sight. My only gripe was that it wasn't as shaded (either naturally or by awnings) as I thought it would be which made for a warm experience. However, the staff were great about accommodating any requests to move with some of the available tables they did have. Also, though no fault of their own I kept getting some septic smells in the breeze. It was faint and not all the time but definitely not something you want while having lunch- hopefully whichever business owner or home owner having that issue can get that cleared up. Our waitress was very friendly, attentive but not overbearing, and made sure we were well taken care of. I ordered the fish and chips. Our food came out quickly and everything looked good! Their mango coleslaw is unique but tasty. The fish was nice and flaky with a crispy batter. I found it to be a little greasy but nothing too worrying. Overall, a great meal to have by the water.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the fact that most everyone was appropriately dressed for a tea time experience. The big highlights for me were desserts and scone.

Everything tasted excellent (except the lacking chicken salad sandwich) and was well prepared. I thought the experience was well worth the money, definitely recommend.

We came to celebrate my birthday, so they lit a candle for us which was cute and appreciated! The menu is posted online in advance, so you know what you're getting. I enjoy eating many different things in small bite-sized portions and I thought all of the food tasted good. The portion is a full meal, albeit it's mostly carbs and sugar. That would be my one critique--it's a bit too sweet and there weren't enough savories. Price-wise, it was $50 per person. I really like that the price is inclusive of taxes, service, and tips. The photos show food at $100 for two people. It was filling, but a very sugary filling. The decor is cute, but some details could have been better. For example, the tea cake tower is black and modern-looking and honestly, not cute or matching. Some light piano music softly playing in the background would have been nice. The customer service is fine. We did street parking and while we came at a rather odd time, we still got a bit of traffic due to construction. Overall, I really enjoyed tea time at Sweet Marie's and would consider coming here again for a special occasion!

Yes, there is a bar, BUT it is also a treasured North Kingstown breakfast spot. We arrived on Saturday morning--not crazy busy, but busy enough that having only one server and the owner working at around 10 a.m. did not bode well. That concern quickly faded once we placed our orders. The owner was gracious and helpful and did a good job managing the pace. Our party of three ordered the French Toast TX style -- from a very finicky member of our party making specific customizations -- all accommodated with a smile, a Crow's Nest Benny, and, for me, Tres Quesadilla. Hands down, this was the best presentation of a breakfast quesadilla I have ever ordered. Why? Just look at the accompanying picture. The tortillas were cut into smaller, easier-to-handle, triangular pieces. Tortillas can be messy to eat. The salt potato home fries are probably one of the Top 5 I've ever had in my life. No, really. Very subjective, yes, but if you like your home fries crispy on the outside and not soggy on the inside, flavorful--then you might agree. There are high-top tables and regular tables inside -- plenty of light streaming through the place. You can even have breakfast at the bar. There's also outside seating. The foyer with the living-room-style seating is charming and cozy. I've already been thinking about going back for drinks and sitting in this area. If you don't mind a little drive for brunch and want to try something far from the madding crowd of Providence, this would be it.
