Question
Places to Eat!
Answer
- Track 15: A new food hall open across the street from the Graduate Hotel, this spot has multiple restaurant stations with some of our favorites. Grab a pizza from Mother Pizzeria, a lobster roll from Dune Brothers, or a burger from There There to try some of our personal favorites! - Breakfast: Some of our favorites include Amy's on Wickenden Street (best breakfast sandwich in Providence!), Nitro Bar, Wildflour (vegan!), and Seaplane Diner. Bolt Coffee is right around the street from the hotel and has awesome coffee and breakfast sandwiches also! - Dinner: We love some Federal Hill spots (Providence's Little Italy) and our favorite has to be Massimo (don't miss their espresso martini!). Constantino's is also nice to enjoy a drink out on the patio by the fountain. Pianta: Vegan spot in Federal Hill that we couldn't believe was vegan when we first tried it! Awesome fresh food. East End: A favorite before we even moved to Providence after visiting many times, East End is a whiskey bar with great drinks and excellent burgers, sandwiches etc. A tried and true classic! Honeybird: Worth the quick drive to East Providence, this spot has the best fried chicken we've had outside of Nashville. Their cocktails and sides are also to die for. Aguardente: Portuguese spot with amazing cocktails and tapas-style shareables. Don't miss the plantains!

Things to Do!
Answer
- India Point Park: down by the water in Providence, this is a large park to have a picnic, jog, or bike ride. If you go in the morning, grab your Amy's breakfast sandwich to go and eat it here. In the afternoon or evening, head to Narragansett Brewery across the street for some of the best local beer - Downtown Providence: Enjoy the area near the Pedestrian Bridge for a scenic view of downtown Providence. We love The Guild outdoor beer garden open in the afternoons for a quick drink with friends. There are cute coffee shops, restaurants, and an ice cream truck all within walking distance! -Hope Street Farmers Market: Held at Lippitt Memorial Park on the East Side, this is a favorite Saturday morning activity! Check out local RI vendors and quick eats. Head to Wildflour for a coffee or smoothie when you're done :) - RISD museum: Beautiful art museum on the RISD campus in downtown Providence, free admission on Sundays! - Brown University- walk through the beautiful campus on College Hill. This historic area has beautiful homes perfect for a morning stroll and lots to see and do. - Providence Place Mall: For any last minute shopping needs! (DSW, Macy's, CVS, etc.). They also have a Cheesecake Factory, Panera Bread, Fogo de Chao and PF Changs, all within walking distance of the Graduate Hotel - Ferry/Drive to Newport! If you have an extra day to spend, take the ferry or a quick 40 minute drive to Newport RI. There are lots of restaurants, boutiques, and beautiful beaches to enjoy with fewer crowds now that the summer is winding down. This was the location of Mary's bachelorette and the bridal party had a blast!
