Cafe Choklad - Providence

I thought this place was a college friendly cafe because it was located right by RISD and Brown University; however, I was completely wrong. I came into the cafe expecting to buy a coffee and study for my finals. When I first came in, the lady at the register told me I couldn 't sit on the couches because I wasn 't ordering lunch. Therefore, I sat on the window side. Later, she came over and told me I was being to loud on the phone but this was a cafe where people could talk. Before closing, she told me directly just to let you know, you can 't just spend $4 and sit here for 4 hours. I didn 't expect that I had to pay more just to sit and study when there were so many empty spots in the cafe and not many customers. This experience has discouraged me from coming back as a college student.

Cuban and Norwegian Smoked Salmon sandwiches were incredible. Pecan pastry and coffee were amazing too. Nice Swedish atmosphere and comfortable seating. Super friendly staff as well.

Eclectic and cozy place, with nice selection of coffee flavorings (I opted for pistachio) and a flavorful menu. The bread and pastries are amazing! ?

Chai tea latte is from a carton pre mixed, so lacking in

I've always driven by this place but I decided to try it. Amazing hot chocolate and pastries. It is one of the best pastries I've ever eaten. Will 1000% come here
