Stopped by here on our way to Crescent beach and we were not disappointed! The splendid egg sandwich was delicious—it felt very fresh. The blush smoothie was tasty. They were super busy and we had to wait a little for our food and drinks but it was well worth it. Cutest vibe. Will always make a stop here whenever in Block Island!
Cute cafe situated right near the center of town for breakfast or lunch. Stays very busy in the summer even on weekdays, so you have to wait. Small amount of indoor seating and decent amount of outdoor seating. Blush smoothie was amazing!
My wife and I really enjoyed this place. We both ended up sharing our choices because they both were so yummy! I had the blue ginger smoothie... very flavorful and great nutrition. My wife had the avocado toast...a very tasty choice.
It's a small establishment with outside and inside seating. The staff are very friendly.
The breakfast here is incredible. This is our second time vacationing on Block Island and going to Persephone’s for breakfast is always a must!! We love the splendid egg sandwich but everything looks incredible! Definitely stop by!
So good, my first stop off the ferry each time. Long wait times but it’s worth it. Splendid Egg Sandwich is properly named. Ciabatta bread is very good. Iced teas are also good. Frittata is okay- kinda greasy. Expensive- but so is everything in Block Island.
Best cup of coffee on Block Island!! There are several places to go for a good cup of coffee on this island, but I’ve literally never been disappointed at Persephone’s Kitchen.. Lots of great hot drinks, iced coffees, iced teas, smoothies and even kombuchas.. They’ve got a full menu of sandwiches, salads and bowls as well as plenty of delicious baked goods.. Seems like it’s the most popular coffee shop in town so there’s always a few people in there, but never a long wait.. Definitely the best spot if you’re looking for your morning coffee fix or a mid-day pick-me-up..
Cozy breakfast spot! Great food and shakes but expect long lines and hard-to-find seating. If seating is unavailable, you can take the food to go to the town center minutes away. Lots of options and reasonable pricing. Take a look at the hand-written menu photos for food options.
ALWAYS the best coffee and breakfast bites on the island. Always. The only issue this summer (wasn’t the case a few summers back) was the volume of the music. I used to come here all summer long to study for the GRE’s when I wasn’t working and it was probably the best place to get some food/drinks and get some work done. But some days the loud EDM at 7:30am is just not the vibe. I’ve sadly gone less this summer because of how loud the music is. The owner Persephone however is extremely kind and always there working her butt off right alongside her employees.
I go every time I'm on Block Island. The gluten-free options are the best ! The banana bread is out of this world !
Such a great vibe. The line was fast and the staff was fantastic. The coffee was so good -/ beach rose syrup was delicious in a latte.
Super cute local cafe! Bacon egg avo arugula sammy, fireball am shot, and blueberry lemon ricotta muffin were all excellent! Will definitely return.
Best breakfast on the island! Great coffee and specialty teas.
Epic drinks and health/soul/indulging foods! Went ever morning on my visit to block island and it never gets old!
I went back for more, specifically the Blue Ginger smoothly. It is so blue and icey cold, I wanted to know what was in it. It is the Bluegreen Algae Superfoods, which I have had before. The algae is genuinely a living food that tastes like wet plant matter, but Persephone's kitchen also adds mango, jellied ginger and date bites and cinnamon. Ginger and Cinnamon almost cancel out one another's flavor, so at first it tasted like nothing at all, but the exotic aftertaste is still with me, and my tum tum still feels spicy warm after 3 hours and a hike onto Settlers Rock and the windy Seal Cubs point. Great recipe from Persephone's kitchen. Thank you Block Island.
This place is a GEM! It gets busy because it’s so damn good, order online in advance or arrive early. Make sure to get yourself a lavender latte 😉👌🏼
Home-like little place downtown tucked in off the street with a low-key vibe. I ordered the vegan rancheros but added an egg. It was totally delicious. I'm craving it again right now. My husband ordered the splendid eggs sandwich and loved it. Definitely a must-try when you're on Block Island.
One of the best places to have breakfast . Coffee was excellent . I had a quinoa bowl that amazed me a lot. Love this place
