It's my little hidden gem. The vibe and atmosphere are great here. Very nicely appointed with indoor and outdoor seating. There's a handful of pastries to include various breakfast options. The various beverages, coffee, lattes, hot or cold. The Acai bowl was delicious. The avocado toast was great. The service was top-notch. Staff was very friendly. There's so much to choose from. I will absolutely return for sure. Kaffeology is on top of my list of places of repeat visits. Can't wait to go back.

I stopped by this little place this morning on the way back from getting my nephew. I got a coffee and a breakfast with whipped, fretted, cheese and stewed tomatoes. I was expecting the tomatoes to taste, you know, like regular stewed tomatoes maybe with a little bit more flavor but when I bit into these tomatoes, I have never tasted anything like them in my life and paired with this whipped feta. Cheese, I was transported to somewhere. I never knew I wanted to be But it is wonderful and the coffee creme brulee, iced coffee made perfectly and I didn't even have to tell anybody how it was supposed to be made.It was a great experience.

Kaffeology is fantastic! Before arrival, take care to drive slow, as this place is on a major road that connects the whole of Aquidneck Island. It is also located near a school, so driving the speed limit is recommended as there may be a police officer parked nearby looking to keep the streets safe and insurance premiums stabilized. Parking is ample, though, and outdoor seating is more widely available than indoor. So, if you see a lot of cars parked, but no one outside, you can assume its crowded. Service tended to be a tiny bit slow, but patience is a good thing to practice for me! I really enjoyed both the gluten-free sandwich and the coffee. The sandwich was a healthy portion, and well worth the tiny wait and price. It was a maple salt sausage, egg, and cheese, and the taste blend was immaculate. I'll be back for another Aquidneck Island breakfast!

Excellent coffee!! The best around! I have not been disappointed with any of the drinks I have ordered. Highly recommend! This location also has a big porch with tables that is so relaxing to enjoy your delicious drinks on! I come back every time I visit the area! Their Newport location is just as great, only smaller and more crowded, but I highly recommend both. Kaffeology is amazing!!

A great place to sit down on a nice Saturday and do some work while listening to some tunes. The food here is very good, some may call it overpriced but everything is made from scratch, if you want processed, go to dunkin. The specialty lattes are very good, I very much enjoy the raspberry truffle latte. The crew that is usually there on Saturdays are very friendly, I do miss the hummingbirds on the wall though. Other than that this is my go to place!

Food and coffee were excellent. Cute spot for breakfast indoor or outdoors. The food is served in take-out containers and handed to you in a paper bag regardless of dining location preference. Seems like a huge waste of packaging.
