It can get very busy and a bit crowded but I think that's just a reflection of how delicious the desserts are. The service was very good as well. This is a perfect place to extend a dinner date if you've just enjoyed a nice Italian meal on Federal Hill, or an evening at Water Fire. I will definitely be returning the next time I am in Providence. A lover of desserts, I find myself wishing every city had a Pastiche!

Their desserts are good. The coffee is good. The venue is insanely crowded and often bursting with clients who can't be bothered to mutter an "excuse me" as they elbow their way to the cashier.  If you somehow manage to grab a seat, you're lucky...but be prepared to feel cramped and inadvertently ignored by the overworked (maybe understaffed?) servers. It's really not their fault though. If they were able to pick themselves up and relocate to a place with more space, they'd be worth 4 stars. goodeatsmundial.com

When we asked for recommendations, they replied that whatever we thought sounded good is what we should get, and thats not a response I've ever received anywhere else. Usually im steared towards the surfire hits. Therefore they appear to strive for a baseline quality with all their offerings. We got the chocolate moose and key lime pie and I really loved the taste of both. Based on the small space and high traffic (of which it deserves) it is best to order to go and not eat it on location.
