Welcome to Beaucoup Café, a delightful haven nestled in the heart of Newport, Rhode Island, at 580 Thames St. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, this charming café invites you to escape the hustle and bustle and indulge in an experience that celebrates both flavor and community.

What sets Beaucoup Café apart is its enchanting atmosphere. The space is filled with natural light, creating a warm and welcoming ambiance that encourages you to linger a little longer. Adorned with beautiful decor and curated accents, this café is not just a place to grab your morning coffee—it's a destination that feels like home. As Kim Fleming aptly puts it, “the atmosphere is charming and cozy,” making it the perfect spot for everything from relaxed catch-ups with friends to quiet solo moments of reflection.

Speaking of coffee, Beaucoup Café is well-loved for its deliciously crafted beverages. Sip on their renowned chai tea, which Kim declares “is hands down the best” she’s ever had, perfectly spiced and full of flavor. For tea and coffee lovers alike, their rosemary honey latte and unique love potion rose latte with oat milk are must-tries. With options ranging from classic americanos to seasonal specialties like cherry matcha, there’s something to tantalize every palate.

But it’s not just the drinks that steal the show. The café is also celebrated for its selection of freshly baked goods. Imagine biting into a flaky, buttery croissant—made with a touch of sourdough for a twist—or savoring the tart sweetness of a raspberry peach scone. As noted by Katie Andrews, the pastries are equally impressive, with offerings like spinach & feta pastries that are nothing short of divine. The balance of flavors and quality ingredients shine through, making each bite utterly satisfying.

One of the café’s charms lies in its integration of a boutique, offering a variety of delightful home goods, books, and even clothing made from organic cotton. As Yobana Young mentions, not only can you enjoy your coffee and pastries here, but you can also shop amidst a pleasant buzz of activity, making it a unique experience that goes beyond the ordinary café visit.

Whether you’re a first-timer or a frequent patron, Beaucoup Café is poised to be your go-to spot in Newport. As you stroll along Thames Street, keep your eyes peeled for this hidden gem. Once discovered, you’ll want to return time and again to indulge in its sweet offerings, warm ambiance, and the friendly smiles of its attentive staff. This is more than just a café; it’s a community gathering place where each visit feels like a special occasion.

Whether you're looking for a spot to relax with friends or enjoy a quiet moment with a great drink, Beaucoup Café never disappoints. Highly recommend!

Super cute shop! I ordered a matcha latte and a chocolate croissant. Both were really good. Love the interior design so much! Decent amount of seating available too. The store is kind of hidden from the street but if you look for it you’ll find it:)

My sister and I stopped by Beaucoup Cafe during our girls trip to Newport and instantly fell in love with the vibe. The space is filled with natural light and feels super calm and welcoming. We tried the spinach & feta pastry and the raspberry peach scone — both were incredible. The love potion rose latte with oat milk was such a unique treat, and the rosemary honey latte was equally delicious. The boutique store attached is beautifully curated and has its own unique vibe. Service was wonderful, and the baristas were so sweet and offered great recommendations! Definitely a must-visit if you’re in Newport.

What a lovely coffee and pastry shop. My Americano and pecan-raspberry scone were excellent. The staff is friendly, the interior ambiance is calm, soothing, fun. Bright and modern, lots of fun items on sale from books to home goods. Highly recommended, a must visit in Newport as you stroll along Thames St.

Amazing atmosphere. Lines move quickly. Coffee is great, sandwiches and baked goods are delicious. The best part though? Shopping while having a great time! The home section is varied and the clothes are made with organic cotton. I will be coming back anytime I’m in Newport!

Adorable French pastry and coffee shop! They get their pastries from a local French bakery. I got the gluten free banana nut bread and it was amazing! Coffee and service was great, and my favorite part was the French music playing in the shop. Would definitely recommend.

Popular place on the weekend! Parking is not an issue, and it seemed like most people were just getting food to go. Their pastries definitely are what they’re known for. My issue with pastries is that they’re really sweet, but this place has the perfect amount of sweetness. The croissant was also made with sourdough, which I thought was very unique. The coffee here is just average, but people seemed to get other drinks.
