Bayberry Beer Hall is a contemporary take on a German beer hall—open year round and filled with plants, the space offers New England-made brews from local favorites like Oxbow, Maine Beer Co., Aeronaut, Proclamation Ale Company (and of course, Narraganset). It's scandi communal tables are great for big groups, and despite being billed as a beer hall, it's food is surprisingly exceptional and seasonally inspired. Be sure to try the pretzel.

Julian's is a Providence staple. It has amazing brunch, is vegan friendly, serves sweet treats like apple & spice cocktails & cherry cinnamon buns, and has a cozy-stars wars-cheerful-rock & roll vibe. I feel happy every time I go there.

My favorite place for a walk. Beautiful colonial homes with the Providence skyline peeking over roofs and around street corners. I feel lucky to live in Providence every time I walk down it.

New Haven-style-inspired pizzas and classic, crispy thick-crust cheese and pepperoni, plus locally harvested raw bar, clam and seafood appetizers. Pizza Marvin’s interior design pays tribute to ’80s and ’90s nostalgia, with gingham-printed table tops and retro quahog and Rhode Island Red chicken art on the walls. Even the gumball machine is stocked with colorful gumballs printed with the Pizza Marvin logo.

Best coffee in Providence, hands down.
