Not Just Coffee | Eastover

Description: A locally owned coffee shop serving pour-overs, carefully prepared espresso drinks, drip coffee, tea, and pastries, with beans from sister company Night Swim Coffee and dairy sourced from Homeland Creamery. The Providence Road location is a smaller, design-forward café set within a gallery and boutique space, with a compact coffee bar, bar-height seating, books, art, and curated retail displays around the room. Free Wi-Fi and the quiet, polished setting make it well suited to coffee meetings, reading, or spending time with a laptop.

Comments: This is a very neat place to work remotely outside on their patio. I see people bring their dogs and just hangout and watch the cars go by on the very busy Providence road. The interior in terms of seating for coffee visitors is all bar style seats by a window, but the space itself has an art gallery, bookstore, and boutique, so it's great for browsing and maybe shopping. Outlet access is very limited, so charge your laptop.

Also, the gift store and clothing store in here, if you're browsing, be sure to check the price tag. I once bought a $54 bottle of lotion, not because I was trying to, but because I foolishly assumed this little bitty bottle can't be more than a few bucks and took it to the register, only to find out, it's rather pricy. I was too embarrassed to put it back, so I went through with it. It's really good lotion, smells tropical, but like, $54? The brand name is Aesop and they also had soap and other stuff in the store. I'm sure its good as well, but your wallet will be crying by the end.
