Providence Cookie Co

This is a great place for lunch because not only do you get some great Mediterranean but they’ve got cookies too! I always end up getting one for after lunch but then I keep coming back for multiples. Glad I found it, tucked away as it is. Added to my repertoire for lunch downtown.

I have to say that I think the Providence Cookie Company makes THE BEST red velvet cupcakes around. My co-​workers and I have tried cupcakes from all over Rhode Island and we agree that no one makes a better cupcake. They are always perfectly moist and the cream cheese frosting is the best. Not to say the other flavors aren’t amazing as well! I am just a HUGE fan of Red Velvet. They also offer other tasty sweet treats not to mention lunch, coffee, and flavored hot and cold teas. We go here at least twice a month for a cupcake. (even in the cold of winter!!) We always call ahead to reserve them because if you don’t, there may not be any left!!! It is hidden and off the beaten path, but if you happen to be in the downtown area, give them a try. The women who run the place are super friendly and get to know their regular customers. They are reasonably priced and well worth every penny!

Kind of hidden from the major downtown thoroughfare, Providence Cookie Company has been a Providence treat for many, many years. A fairly small establishment with a lot of variety to offer. They have coffee, cookies, cupcakes, as well as calzones of the sort. Their chocolate chip cookies were very good; gooey like we all love them. In addition, they have Red Velvet Cupcakes which are also a personal favorite.
