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.

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

Best coffee in Providence, hands down.

Tricycle Ice Cream makes bespoke ice cream sandwiches that are delicious, unforgettable, and unique—especially those inspired by co-founder Giovanni Salvador's Filipino heritage like the Ube and Coconut Cookie or the Thai Iced Tea. They also sell homemade ice cream tacos, and push pops, all of which can be eaten in their small patio out back.

One of Providence's weirdest and best kept secrets. A holdover from the years from Providence was considered "the Jewelry capitol" of the US, Wolf E. Myrow is a vintage jewelry warehouse selling closeout jewelry supplies and wholesale jewelry findings. They've been around for fifty years and most of their stock is even older—you could wander around for hours and still only see a tiny portion of their collection of beads, tiny figurines, Swarovski crystals, and chandelier findings.
