Shut-out on Pastiche due to Holiday closures during two prior visits to Providence it was finally on Saturday that a group of eight gathered, one item each plus Coffee and Tea tallying though the results attest to an eatery that has earned its accolades.Originally founded as a wholesale concept, the idea to improve other Restaurants in the area eventually yielding the current Café at Spruce Street, guests entering the space will quickly notice cozy environs created by tight seating and a European-air that sees many guests lingering over last bites and quiet conversation.Not a place for the hurried, a queue commonly found both early and late on every day but Mondays (and Holidays) when closed...
Quel endroit adorable et confortable pour profiter des desserts fins. Pastiche présente une merveilleuse sélection de bonbons ainsi que de café et de thé. Il peut devenir très occupé et un peu encombré mais je pense que c'est juste un reflet de la délicieuse des desserts. Le service était très bon aussi bien. C'est un endroit idéal pour prolonger un dîner si vous venez d'apprécier un bon repas italien sur la colline fédérale ou une soirée au feu de l'eau. Je vais certainement retourner la prochaine fois que je suis dans la providence. Un amoureux des desserts, je me trouve souhaitant que chaque ville ait un pastiche!
I struggle with Pastiche. Their desserts are good. The coffee is good. The venue is insanely crowded and often bursting with clients who can't be bothered to mutter an "excuse me" as they elbow their way to the cashier.
If you somehow manage to grab a seat, you're lucky...but be prepared to feel cramped and inadvertently ignored by the overworked (maybe understaffed?) servers. It's really not their fault though. If they were able to pick themselves up and relocate to a place with more space, they'd be worth 4 stars.

What an adorable, cozy spot to enjoy some fine desserts. Pastiche features a wonderful selection of sweets as well as coffee and tea. It can get very busy and a bit crowded but I think that's just a reflection of how delicious the desserts are. The service was very good as well. This is a perfect place to extend a dinner date if you've just enjoyed a nice Italian meal on Federal Hill, or an evening at Water Fire. I will definitely be returning the next time I am in Providence. A lover of desserts, I find myself wishing every city had a Pastiche!
When we walked in, the restaurant seemed a bit crowded, but the hostess quickly took our name and asked us to wait on a bench outside, promising to seat us in five minutes. True to her word, we were seated in just five minutes, which was impressive! The desserts were fantastic, and as someone who is gluten-free, I was especially thrilled with the coconut cake—it was absolutely divine! It's the best gluten-free dessert I've ever had! I highly, highly recommend this place.
