The Greenhouse Cafe and Tavern offers a family friendly dining experience. Join us for our new Dining room and Bar or 'al fresco', alongside our beautiful pond and waterfall amongst beautifully planted gardens. We are focused on the "farm to table" concept and work hard to ensure that as much product as possible is locally sourced to ensure the freshest and most delicious menu offerings. Be sure to finish off your meal at The Frozen Gnome ice cream shop located next door!
We have our own gardens and greenhouses onsite where we are growing as much product as possible for use in our recipes.
Look for our weekly specials which will feature fruits and vegetables as they come into season. We offer fresh, local and sustainable seafood.
We travel regularly to purchase product for use in our restaurant from one of the best farmers in the business. Our route takes us through the famous Rhode Island ports and allows us to take advantage of the freshest seafood possible!

Christmas decorations were amazing and beautifully done!! Service was so slow, drinks and food took forever and once the food arrived it was cold. We were so hungry that we didn’t want to wait forever again for the food be warmed or remade, so we just ate. We paid the bill before another long wait for dessert!

Place was busy and clearly the service and the kitchen could not keep up. It seems like the experience would be a great one on a slow night. But clearly they could not handle a busy restaurant.

We were disappointed, food was marginal. We were seated in the restaurant at a table for four with an extra chair at the end to accommodate 5, even after making a reservation weeks ago.

Wasn’t a good experience. We went there because it was decorated beautifully for the holidays and it was. The service was horrible. With a 7:45p reservation, we were still waiting to be seated at 8:15. There were kids running this place. Not one adult over 22 was seen We chose to sit at the bar instead. I ordered a medium rare burger that came out rare.

We went for the first time for a friend's birthday and the entire experience couldn't have been better. We were pleasantly seated as soon as we walked in. We did have reservations which I'm sure was helpful but it seems as though they have sufficient seating throughout both buildings for walk ins. The decorations were so beautiful and elegant, they were a conversation starter for sure. The waiter was the BEST! He was friendly, bubbly and on top of his tables and our service from him was top notch. The drinks and food I can't say enough about! Everything was absolutely delicious. I've driven by here for years and am SO glad we finally went. Highly recommend for any occasion!
