Borealis Coffee Roasters

Always great drinks here lots of lovely chai latte and matcha action as well as interesting drink specials and a good range of proper coffees that they roast in house. Good cakes, bars, and savoury treats too. Well worth a visit.Food: 5/5

A small coffee house on Bullocks Point Avenue in the Riverside section of East Providence. It borders the bike path, and it has a small outdoor patio that is ideal for sitting and sipping with a friend during the good weather, or stopping after biking on bike path for a refreshing beverage. Their prices are a little higher than a chain Coffee shop, but the muffins are always fresh and delicious, and the coffee is some of the best around. The staff is always friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is inviting and, casual and relaxing.

Had to fly to Rhode Island for this coffee specifically to get my hands on the “Sam Hyde.” When I asked politely for the Sam Hyde, they immediately dropped every other order that was in front of me and started working on mine. I was very surprised by the fast, yet very precise making of this coffee drink. They had it ready for me, I took one sip and felt very powerful. Words can’t describe what I was feeling after I took a drink of that “Sam Hyde” but I’ll tell you right now at that very moment I was able to Think it, Dream it, and do it.

This place is wonderful the best beans I've found in the Providence area thus far (and there is some pretty good competition... . The atmosphere and snacks were also fantastic, not to mention the service! Highly recommended!

I come here for my coffee beans, which they source and then roasted locally. I love their coffee and their specialty drinks. Great pastry, too. They staff is very nice. Today I met a man in line and we chatted about Sicily for a half hour after ordering. It is that kind of a friendly place.Dietary restrictions: There is always a yummy gluten-free muffin option. Sadly, the seasonal gf pumpkin chocolate chip muffin is now gone until next year. It's amazing.
