Cute Cottage by the Bay
Breakfast Recommendations
This is our favorite breakfast spot in the area by far! There is usually a wait but the line to get in moves pretty quickly. I personally can't leave without getting the Pulled Pork Benedict but you do you!

Crepe Corner is located in Pawtuxet Village which is a super cute area to walk around in. We haven't been yet, but have heard really good things and really, you can never go wrong with crepes for breakfast... or lunch... or dinner... or dessert!

Restaurant Recommendations
This is a great local restaurant and the best part is you can walk there in under ten minutes! The food is delicious, they have a full bar and the staff is super friendly! We definitely recommend at LEAST one order of the mozzarella triangles.

This restaurant offers delicious food and drinks, easy parking, and is only about a ten minute drive from the cottage. It's one of those rare places that works for a date night, drinks with friends, or a meal with a toddler. It's also very close to the Gamm Theatre, making it an ideal location for a pre-show bite.

Iggy's is a RI classic- for some around here it isn't a beach day if it doesn't end with clam cakes and doughboys. This location is right next to Oakland Beach making it a super convenient stop at the end of a beach trip. You can order at the counter and they have many tables available for you to sit and eat your meal. If you are looking for a sit down meal then Iggy's Boardwalk is right next door and offers a more upscale menu with table service.

This one is a bit more of a drive to get to but their beer is worth it! The space is brand new and very hip. Our favorite food truck, Ming's Asian Street Food is there on Sundays 12-4, and if you miss them you can always pick up takeout from Apsara Restaurant which is nearby. Let us know if you need help knowing what to order! *FYI- for some reason the map shows their old location- the new location (40R Sprague St, Providence) is a little further south, about a 20 minute drive from the cottage.

This is a cute little beach just a few blocks away from the cottage. Take a right on Bluff Ave and left on Rock Ave and you’re there! It’s usually quiet and not too busy. Perfect for a walk on the beach or just sitting by the water. Make sure to check and see when low tide is because the beach pretty much disappears at high tide! No lifeguards.

At only a little over 2 miles away, getting to this Warwick beach is only about a 6 minute drive and 40 minute walk. In addition to the beach it features a small park and playground. The water is shallow but can be a bit rocky so water shoes are a good idea. Also beware of the riptide, especially at the sandbar. *$10 parking fee per visit. No lifeguards.
*Warwick has had difficulty staffing the parking attendant position at this location and it’s possible you will not be charged for parking during the 2021 season.

This is another Warwick Beach that also features a playground and some picnic tables. Maybe the best part of this beach is that it is so close to both Iggy’s Doughboys & Chowder House and Top of the Bay. $10 parking fee per visit. No lifeguards.

The Roger Williams Park Botanical Center offers all the usual beautiful things you would expect to see at a botanical garden. What I think makes it extra special is sometimes they have goats(!!) and in April they do a Fairy Garden which is such a fun activity to do with little ones! The Botanical Garden is also directly across from where the Providence Police Mounted Command keeps their stables- so you can always go and look at the horses after you're done with the gardens.
