Sawyer's Market — Local services in Providence

Nice vibe, yummy food, and quality produce, but DEFINITELY some room for improvement:

-somewhat misleading advertising for bagels on thursdays, but no toaster to make a bagel to eat in-house... bummer-- I would be willing to pay for a prepared, toasted bagel with cc, even if it is overpriced. Otherwise, may as well wait until the farmer's market later that day to get the exact same bagels for less money. -breakfast sandwiches stop at 10:30 am?? -no lock on the bathroom, but music playing/people inside create noise. Not the best for the hard-of-hearing. -no espresso... feels imperative for a cafe vibe open morning to evening. -Expensive. This is definitely targeted to a yuppie demographic. would be cool to see less expensive options (for ex: a glass of wine under $10?).

Often the reasons for not being able to meet the above concerns is attributed to a lack of space and storage. However, the store feels quite empty, and I imagine there is underused space that could be activated.

I have gone there because I'm in community with people who work there, but otherwise I likely wouldn't go. I have faith Sawyer's could be really awesome! just not quite there,...

Sawyer's Market is waiting for you to experience it. It is waiting for you to enjoy a West End afternoon drinking a coffee or having a bite to eat. It really feels like an experience when you go there. There is a definite European feel that doesn't quite translate to anything you might find on the East Side.

There are fresh produce and some choice food items in the cooler section, some dry goods that may be tasty for those who are glutinous and gluten-free. I had seen a brand of potato chip that is rarely seen in the markets of Providence, and the Black Truffle flavor is always an earthy flavored favorite for some.

The drinks menu is only wine and beer. But the selection looks plentiful. There are still menu items that are not available, yet.

I only grabbed an iced coffee, but the service was quick, the atmosphere thoughtful, and the sidewalk table I sat at was a wonderful place to sit and think before the next busy moment.

Sawyer's Market is going to be a nice place to visit in the PVD area. I will be going back to try out their menu, but a nice afternoon coffee was enough for me to want to...

Had the gorgeous, delicious, salade nicoise on the first day Sawyer's opened (a few days ago), and it was perfect. So good, tasty, and light. Also sampled the fish dip and it was fantastic. They have a good range of prices for drinks – I accidentally ordered the most expensive glass of white wine on the menu, but it was superb and I didn't regret it. Then I ordered a glass of wine half the price of the first, which was also great. There is a wonderful selection of curated food and food-related items to purchase in the market area...reminds me of the gift-shop-y-ness of Cluck! (for those who've been in the neighborhood long enough). Bravo to the team here for having the vision and energy to activate this long-dead corner of the neighborhood – bringing life to this end of Broadway is long overdue. I can't wait to go back...
