On our last morning in Providence, Gabriel was really excited to take me to a breakfast spot near The Dean hotel where we were staying. He said it was the perfect place to grab a small but filling breakfast and then explore the nearby shops.

heading inside
The moment we approached Little City, I was amazed by the building's beauty. With a history dating back to 1904, the building's revival in 2021 by the two visionary co-owners breathed new life into its walls. A fusion of on-the-go convenience and historical reverence, the cafe's minimalist decor pays homage to the past while catering to modern needs.
Stepping inside, the expansive floor-to-ceiling windows bathed the interior in natural light, creating a serene environment for those seeking solitude, study, or simply a moment alone before heading out to their next destination.
A brilliant focal point that grasped my attention immediately was the towering light brown wooden bookshelf filled with plants and books that doubled as a partition. Behind the bookshelf was the kitchen. Cleverly designed, there’s a discreet opening in the bookshelf allowing the kitchen staff to seamlessly deliver you your freshly prepared breakfast sandwiches.
While cozy in size, the layout was planned brilliantly. Tables and chairs against the windows provided an ideal backdrop for work or heart-to-heart conversations. The high ceiling expanded the spatial perception, creating an open and airy ambiance.
Seated comfortably, my eyes wandered to a diverse crowd within Little City. From artists sketching away to friends enjoying their morning meals. It was nice to see a mixture of people each engaged in their unique morning rituals.

food highlights
Little City's artfully handcrafts their breakfast sandwiches on sourdough English muffins, paired with daily baked pastries shows their commitment to making delicious bites. The ever-changing menu harmonizes with the seasons, presenting an array of flavors to elevate your coffee experience.
Gabriel ordered the Bacon, Egg and Cheese Sandwich with hot coffee and a sugar coated blueberry pastry. I ordered the Pulled Mushroom Sandwich and Matcha Latte with creamy oat milk ignited my senses.
The impeccable balance of textures and flavors within my Pulled Mushroom Sandwich inside the English muffin… was absolutely delicious! Gabriel enjoyed his breakfast as well but he loved his blueberry pastry the most and said it was the best he’s ever tasted!
