And boy did it go well. Let me back track a little bit. This place serves Tea AND they do tattoos. What in the actual HELL, genius! I love love love this idea, and no this place is not sketchy at all, it's is so hip and I freaking love it so much. It's street parking but no worries it's worth it. When you walk in you're immediately greeted with smiles and you walk into great hip hop music, big tv's, arcade games and just a great atmosphere. I noticed they had a lot of regular customers, and they treated all the customers with the upmost respect I love this. Now to the Tea, they have everything all the names are pretty hip and the flavors are bomb! All types of flavors, to cater to all taste buds! I don't know much about the tattoo portion but I know the guy who does the tattoos does them in a very clean room, in the back area. And well I wanted to get a tattoo and he's booked all the way until May right now and it's only November, and his work is amazing. He's done my sister and mom's tattoos I'll be next! Everything about this place I love. My sister did her clothing pop up shop here and the vibes were amazing. Everyone is so supportive and the atmosphere and look of this place for sure made the event successful. I fully support this place and I'll be a regular customer and make sure I bring others. Check this gem out!

Flavoring didn't have that chemical taste that most places have when they use those standard syrups. We will definitely be back!

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.

I'm driving back to our B&B late afternoon and I see people gathered outside Brown Bee Coffee…read more Are they online? Is there a wait for coffee? Inquiring minds want to know and I want to see what's buzzin' so I found a parking across the street and headed towards the Brown Bee. The second I walked in, I knew I found a hidden gem in Providence. The baked goods look like a true professional baked them. Ever grab a tray of croissants from Costco? I'm sure those bakers question their life. These baked goods look like the bakers put time and true methods to achieve the level of a quality baked goods. Take for instance their pain au chocolat. Simple, yet elegant with a classic golden hue. Brown Bee, I commend you on your mad skills. My wife and I stopped in for coffee. I see a great line up of coffee choices: Halva Latte, Pistachio Latte and a Bee Latte made with cayenne. That sounds a little too on the wild side so I ordered two Spanish lattes. Made with condensed milk, smoked chocolate and a sprinkle of sea salt, this is perfect for a cloudy afternoon. I also order a cookie to split between us, a Brookie. The lattes were perfection. The sweetness from the condensed milk and the smoked chocolate gave the drink a nice balanced flavor. The Brookie? Fudgy, chewy and the right amount of chocolate made this an afternoon delight. Just passing thru, thanks Brown Bee Coffee for a great Providence experience!

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.

Service was quick, and the staff was very friendly! The aesthetic of the trailer was also super cute. I honestly wish they had a brick-and-mortar location! I'll definitely be following them on Instagram to see where they'll be next!

I also ordered tea for my college-bound daughter who wasn't feeling well.
