Blue State Coffee in Providence

Cute, friendly cafe in a vibrant Providence neighborhood. Food selection was broad enough to find something for everyone without trying too hard. Each dish I saw looked (& smelt) great. Thanks for a great experience & showing your business support for #charlottesville!

Went into Blue State Coffee five minutes from closing and ordered a coffee. They had already put away the roast I had ordered, so to compensate, they offered me a larger drink for the same price. This made my day! The staff was very friendly and the coffee was amazing. Would recommend this place to anyone.

GREAT PLACEBest coffee shop in RI. And I have been to a LOT of coffee shops. Coffee is amazing, but their breakfast foods really blow you out of the water. Perfectly toasted bagels, their Lox and Bagel is a godsend, and their grilled cheese is extremely tasty. 5/5 all the way.

I ordered an iced mocha and the drink was not good at all. The chocolate powder they used was not completely dissolved and that made the iced coffee not enjoyable. Regarding the place, music selection is nice and chairs are comfortable.

From hot to cold the coffee here is bold and delicious ready to be served by an extremely friendly employee!

Very good coffee, you can taste the freshness.

Coffee met expectations for any other local cafe that serves 20 oz for $5 but sadly the crew did not meet the quality of the brew. Being waited on while texting, no big deal except he had to finish his message before he waited on me. Coffee was a delight though.

Best coffee shop in Thayer st., ..., friendly staff.

Good coffee, and their charity donations chips are definitely a reason to go there. Would recommend to a out of town person or a college student.

Exceptional coffee and customer service.

Good iced coffee.

One of my favorite places to come after a run! I always get a mixed berry smoothie, it's a bonus you can add protein powder to your​ smoothie. They also carry the gluten free bars and they're delicious! Great atmosphere always!

A little pricey but worth it if you want good quality coffee. Staff is always wonderful and there's something so peaceful about the atmosphere in there.

Great coffee and internet that works! Many of the other coffee shops on the Eastside have pretty bad internet but this one is very good so it's a nice place to work!

Cozy place with damn good breakfast

Great busy coffee spot on Thayer st. They have great staff and good food. They do make everything fresh so don't worry about customizing! Their vegan options are plentiful and super good. The cowboy cookie is nutritious well also being super delicious! The coffee and espresso drinks are roasted perfectly and always fresh.

Very friendly barista, think her name was Gabby. Good coffee.

Multiple times of specifically ordering triple shot, quad shot, or other espressos, I've been given single-shot drinks where the barista is always surprised and my cup has no markings whatsoever to reflect my order. I'm tired of paying for incorrect drinks that aren't even fixed to match the charged price once the issue is raised.

Friendly staff they were practicing latte art and it was cool to see. Lively Location but very calm inside, great to study coffee is good and they have Merchandise which is always a plus. Definitely a nice place if you need to study and enjoy coffee.

Good coffee! Staff changes frequently and I have had some no so nice interactions in the past. Great place to get some work done. They have expanded thier menu to include more food now so, feel free to spend all day!

Nice place to seat in and relax in the middle of the day. The "Banana Peanut Butter Chocolate" smoothie is tasty! It's not the best coffee shop in Providence, but it is a really convenient location near/on the brown campus. Also, it's crowded usually, and that's not make the place relaxing at all!

Coffee is fine, but the volume and choice of headbanging rock music is enough to not want to come here. Also the bathroom is not that clean. The floor was sticky today. Let me add that service is absolutely atrocious here depending on who's working. The owner should really watch the staff undercover and thin the heard. Some of the employees are SERIOUSLY hurting your business. I've left waiting for a beverage. First on line. Not busy and I've never seen someone care less about service or not taking the longest time humanly possible to make a coffee. I literally was in disbelief. Other staff kill it. But you just never know who you'll get on what day at which Blue State.

Love their hummus and bagel chips. Soooo good!! It is a nice and cozy place. Good people.

Great espresso drinks, one of my top five in Providence. Lots of room to sit and work, with some comfy chairs if you can snag them.

One of the best hot chocolates I’ve ever had.

Great coffee but it took them 26 minutes to deliver my toasted plain bagel with cream cheese ... pretty ridiculous

Great place to hang out. Good tea and coffee too, w/ nice customer service.

Great place for good coffee and tables to work

Community connection thru coffee consumption !!

Great teas and coffees and a very cute outdoor seating area :)

I know coffee. Or at least I think I am. So for my knowledge, the coffee here is very good. full of taste and not watery. Coffee that keeps you going. Many tough days started here, and some also ended. Love Blue State.

Very good beans that are recently roasted, not to mention the friendly, knowledgeable baristas and tasty drinks. A good place for a meeting or a quick change of scenery.

One of Providence's best coffee shops. Great coffee and plenty of places to sit.

They pretty much make the best cappuccino that money can buy :)

The coffee place to support and make sure it beats the ever engulfing trend of commercialization of Thayer street. Good coffee and other stuff, and good atmosphere. One recommendation: please put a sign on the toilets reminding customers to close the door after exiting. There's a table right by the toilet door, and somehow 90% of customers are not considerate enough to do so on their own, and it's quite rude toward the patrons sitting by that table.

Coffee is delicious. The staff is nice. There is free WiFi but not enough plugs for laptop work

Great spot for a quick bite or beverage. I do wish they still offered their chocolate chip blondies though the peanut butter ones are also good.

Love Blue State! Great coffee, best chai lattes around, and good food as well. Plus, the staff people are always super friendly, and the company supports tons of great local organizations. No reason to go to Starbucks when this is practically next door!

Love their relaxed atmosphere. They also use wooden tokens to make donations to various organizations. Fun place to hang out for coffee in the summer as well.

The treatment by staff is the only thing making up for the microwaved meals and lack of supply. You never know if they will actually have the item in stock you are looking to purchase. No reason to offer a menu if half the items on it aren’t for sale.

Very nice Latte and good service, despite the fact I had my Cornell hat on ;)

Best tasting hand crafted lattes. Friendly baristas. Hopping spot on the Brown Campus. Donates to charities.

Love this cafe... Great organic coffee n lattes, hot chocolate, have alternative milk options and vegan option food items... Good service... They give part of their prophets to local community organizations n projects to help people animals n community... Great place...

Wonderful coffee with my little girl

Marred slightly by the non-stop 90s music.Otherwise a good coffee.Can get busy in university term.

I love Blue State coffee!But I'm biased, I met my wife there.It's a really good coffee shop with a conscience; they make monthly charitable donations and allow the customers to vote on which charities.

Favorite coffee spot in providence! Drink: iced dirty chai. They make probably the best one I've ever had. Delicious and their double shot addition to it is all you need to be your most productive!Snack: their apple cinnamon oatmeal with skim milk is the perfect snack for either breakfast or an afternoon treat. Delicious!Eat: tofu sandwich or their grilled cheese with tomato on cranberry walnut bread! Best possible choices ever! Delicious and they make me feel healthy - happy benefit!

Food is overpriced. Coffee is overrated

Good coffee, decent food, but service was a tad slow

Nice choices of coffee and food items. More spacious inside than I expected. easy access from Brown University and anybody hanging out in the area. great to grab a coffee here and go for a walk in the area.
