I love that the owner Shannon is often around and all the baristas seem to genuinely care that you are happy with your visit. I'm here usually at least twice a week and I really have to talk myself out of heading in more often. The seasonal lattes are always so delicious. Not too sweet and well thought out flavors. They make their own syrups and truly keep things original. For food I'll go with a bagel or one of their toasts on high fiber bread. I like that both the bagels and bread are from other Rhode Island small businesses. While the space is small the vibes are strong. It really feels like a community there. I usually always see someone I know or have gotten to know from bringing my laptop and working for a bit at The Nook. If you love supporting local, I highly recommend you do so at The Nook!

The staff was friendly and efficient. It seemed a little bit confusing when our order was ready for the serve to find us. There was plenty of seating inside and many ordered to take out or home.

They ended up giving my a egg & cheese on A bagel but it was still very good! They don't use a cheap microwaved egg like some places do either. (The croissant is also a good option!) But let's be real here... that's not why I wait 7 cars deep most early mornings in a drive thru line... The cinnamon rolls are the reason. These things just hit every time man. They arnt really anything over the top like a thick cinnamon bun out of your oven or anything like that. They are your simple cinnamon roll with icing on it not frosting but they are just so delicious - easily the standout. (Sometimes they run out!) They're mostly known for their coffee, and you can tell. They have a hoping business and everyone usually leaves with a coffee amongst other options like their bagels or baked goods. Inside is pretty small with very little seating so not the best place to get any work done or hangout. Overall, they are a very busy place and most people put an online order in to beat the crowd. The drive thru service is pretty quick for being busy and also very friendly. If you're going, don't overthink it - get the cinnamon roll.

This spot…read morehas been on my list to visit and today I found a good opportunity to venture to try~ I was surprised to see this place busy with even a drive through that wasn't that visible in afternoons, but mornings is very visible with cars wrapping around cafe. There is also spots available within the lot. The interior was small with plenty of counter side space to sit. Obviously this is a popular place. I ordered a small ice coffee and a New England sandwich which has Turkey, cranberry and cheese. My meal was savory and tasty, and the coffee was perfect to me, on the sweeter side. I had such a great experience ~ we snagged a seat, and the food was handed to us over the counter since we found counter side seating. This place seems like a local fav, and as future local, I can't wait to try the drive thru myself next time.

*GLUTEN-FREE ALERT*…read more I'm just now learning what a Guatemalan quesadilla is & I want one every day for the rest of my life. Thankfully, we have Cafe Ava for that. A Guatemalan quesadilla is sorta like a cornbread or a pound cake or a piece of actual heaven. It's got a thick but soft texture, it's a little bit sweet & a little bit savory, & it's topped with sesame seeds. My mouth is watering just writing about it. Cafe Ava makes their Guatemalan quesadillas with rice flour, so they are gluten-free. GLUTEN FREE PERFECT LITTLE PIECES OF HEAVEN. Anyways, I know where I'm going tomorrow for breakfast.

Food/Drinks: I'm a sucker for trying new coffee spots, and this location has been pretty popular on…read moresocial media, so I decided to give it a go. I went with one of their most popular signature drinks, the tres leches iced latte. It was very sweet and tasty, but the sweetness was a bit overwhelming. My husband got the flan iced latte, and it was the same experience for him. The quality of the coffee itself seemed fairly good but just a bit sweet per personal preference. I didn't get the chance to try their food. That being said, if you have a sweet tooth, this is a perfect spot to try. I'm planning to come back to try their food and a regular latte to really get a taste of what they offer. Location: This location is on the main street and is pretty artsy. It's a perfect spot for a coffee run or to meet up with friends. They have a really cool painting and overall aesthetic, and even a swing, which adds to the interior design and makes it cozy and unique. There is also parking in the back of the building. If that is full, street parking is available and easy to access. Service: The service was quick and efficient. We spoke to the barista who was making our coffees, and they took our order and prepared our drinks in a timely manner. I will be coming back because I feel like I need to try the food and more latte options!

Salted caramel wasn't my favorite, but I think others would enjoy~ the chocolate was on the sweet side. I was asked if I wanted a martini or on the rocks, and the rocks version was$2+ and I'm a cute mason jar with ice. Absolutely adorable and just more watered down. Worth it because my Mexican espresso was still strong. This spot was very cute and simple. Not busy at all on a Wednesday night~

I LOVE: Iced matcha with vanilla and light soy milk Walnut banana bread Buenas Dias breakfast wraps And their seasonal/limited time drinks PS In my opinion, latte love HAS the BEST cold foam. It's thick (not runny) and creamy. It sits on top of your drink not fade into it. Love y'all so bad!!!

A menu of drinks, breakfast sandwiches, salads, acai bowls and lunch sandwiches are over the order counter. Seats are metal at wood topped tables, both low and high tops along with some counter seating looking out over the parking area. I did not see the coffee beverage I wanted and ordered a flat white instead, along with a slice of lemon blueberry bread. I don't usually drink coffee with this much milk, but it was tasty and smooth so no complaints. The slice of lemon bread was very thick, sweet and flavorful. My SO ordered a breakfast sandwich which are available in many configurations. The sandwich is quite large, well presented and tasty. He also enjoyed a drip coffee with milk. Bus your own tables - a station is located next to the cashier. Parking is limited, but the new construction across the street is signed as their new location and it looks like there will be plenty of parking there when they move.

Yes ma'am, everything is incredible and I love you lol. Speaking of the server, she was also the one who took my order, and she was so kind and patient. When you walk into this place, you can definitely tell you can order coffee, but more than anything else, you can tell you can order a coffee cocktail. Cocktails wall to wall lol. Now listen, that doesn't mean I'm not down for an AM cocktail, just not at that moment. She told me they could make anything I wanted, and they did exactly that. I ordered a medium hot latte with oat milk, whipped cream, and caramel drizzle. My colleague got the chai iced coffee. Parking is easy to find either right out front or in the back. I will say this location gets very busy, and it can feel like a small dance battle for close parking, so get in where you fit in.

Eating it though I was met with a sad bagel, unflavored meat and an egg that was probably microwaved moments before.

It's really in front of you that all the syrups are commercial with poor quality control.

Will definitely come back in the future especially since my nail salon is across the street. The baguette was good but a little bland and smaller than the baguettes I'm used to.
