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.

Fortnight is a casual, experimental natural wine bar, operated by a workers’ cooperative, known for its relaxed neighborhood vibe and special pop-ups with local wineries and chefs. Check their instagram to see what events that have on or just swing by for some great wine and a nice charcuterie plate.

Great atmosphere, music and food. I recommend checking out their patio.

Cellar Stories is, hands-down, my favorite used book store of all time. I have never left without buying a book. They have especially large sci-fi, art, cooking, and antiquarian sections, as well as a lot of great books on local New England history. Their organization system is lovingly chaotic, but profoundly helpful to finding exactly what you didn't know they needed. A must for any reader or artist.

The Wedding Cake house was originally built in 1867 and served as the home of Anna and Laura Tirocchi, two Italian-American immigrant sisters who operated a dressmaking business before becoming vacant and settling into disrepair for decades. However, in the last 5 years it's been renovated and restored to its former glory by the long standing Providence feminist art collective The Dirt Palace. It now operates as a contemporary art installation, housing artists on short term residencies to engage with and work in the space. They also host regular shows, open houses, and, occasionally operate as a bed & breakfast. It's worth walking by to see the stunning architecture, especially on a night when you can go inside!
