What People Are Saying
from Google"For anyone unfamiliar with the area, this is one of the best breakfast spots in northern Rhode Island. After a devistating fire that destroyed the old location many years ago, Coffee & Cream was revived in its current home with the same spirit and love that made it a local favorite for decades. The atmosphere, though now a more minimalist rustic feel, still pays homage to the original restaurant- which featured hand made equestrian murals and vintage decoration. Fun fact: Coffee and Cream at the time were the names of two horses whose names were displayed on the walls of the original restaurant. As for the food, the quality of their breakfast offerings has stayed consistent these many years- the rich and nostalgic tastes of their food amplified by the local sources they proudly support, such as Wright's dairy and some local bakeries. But by far the best thing about this restaurant are the servers. I have never seen a staff as warm, attentive,and amazing- when you go here they truly feel like a family, truly make you feel welcome. We've known so many servers through the years, seen people come and go, yet the heart of this beloved restaurant stays the same."
"This is one of our go to places for breakfast on Sundays after church. Bigger than expected, but very cozy rooms. Nice staff and great food. Can be crowded, but we've never had to wait too long for a table."
"Good coffee, so many different options to choose from and food is so good!! One of my favorites is the Barrel Benedict, some of the best hollandaise sauce I've ever had. Love all the different Benedict choices and some great weekly specials."
"Wonderful little restaurant. I'm from out of state and came here for the first time to have brunch with my mom. Everything was good... service phenomenal, food very good, the hot chocolate was tasty, bathroom was clean... we even came close to closing time, and a waitress said we were welcome to take our time. I would love to come here again."
"Update- Summer 23: still a great breakfast spot! This is a well-run, cheery breakfast place where the staff is great, the food is good and the atmosphere is "perky"! My first time there and really enjoyed breakfast. Thanks to Candace for a great breakfast at the bar!! Great menu and reasonable prices."
