Seven Stars Bakery - Broadway
342 Broadway, Providence, RI
Crema's Take
“This Providence institution nails the pastry game with genuinely excellent baked goods—their croissants are impressively flaky, their kouign amanns perfectly balanced, and their cakes properly moist—making it worth a visit if you're willing to pay premium prices for quality. The espresso drinks are solid and service is quick, though some find the overall experience a bit rushed and impersonal. Come here when you want a really good pastry with your coffee, not for lingering or chatting with the baristas.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. Quick-grab spot. Pastries and light food on the menu.

The most delicious flavorful, baked goods! We had the lemon cake, cinnamon roll, and ginger scone. All delicious! I would definitely come back for the baked goods. However, the service was meh.. the staff attending the counter were not very friendly or helpful.

MEM tea and a variety of coffee drinks. Pastries, bread, and a few yogurt and granola options in the cooler, as well as three types of milk (pink, chocolate, and regular) and orange juice. The cheddar bread with a bit of butter is phenomenal! They don’t have sandwich options…
