LITTLECITYCoffee & Kitchen
Specialty coffee, handmade food, and a little community in the heart of downtown.
Our Story
A neighborhood kitchen in the heart of downtown.
We're a small café tucked into Mathewson Street — a gathering place for Providence's downtown community. Whether you're grabbing an espresso on the way to work or sitting down with a sandwich and your laptop, this is your little city.
We source our coffee exclusively from Tandem Coffee Roasters in Portland, Maine — people who care deeply about sourcing and craft. Our kitchen turns out handmade breakfast sandwiches and pastries fresh every morning. We close at 12:30 for food so we can do it right.
