WHERE STARS ARE TREATED LIKE LOCALS 
& LOCALS ARE TREATED LIKE STARS
The Café is a concept born of our family’s belief that a community is stronger when it gathers to celebrate, discuss ideas, relax, and enjoy. Our unique downtown location and partnership with the newly renovated United Theatre will yield an endless number of these memorable experience opportunities for years to come. The design of our venue, menus and service are a proper mix of aspirational and comfortable.

We are honored to be a part of this incredible region and look forward to having you join us.

    Outstanding New International cuisine, curated wine selection, and an exceptional wait staff. Might be a bit pricey for some folks, but you’re getting pretty good value for your money since the creativity in the food is amazing, and the atmosphere is sophisticated without pretentious formality. Best dining experience in Westerly.

    Absolutely my favorite spot. It’s an intimate restaurant that makes you feel like you’re eating inside. An art gallery, even the bathrooms are gorgeous. The service is attentive and professional. The cocktails are perfect. The small plates I just love asparagus, still there… The menu changes frequently so some of your favorites may disappear from time to time. But there’s always something new to try all in all a most fabulous place to dine
