I found Slice of Heaven on Yelp while looking for nearby breakfast spots.
Atmosphere: Bright and cheerful. Cute, beachy casual kind of vibe. Plenty of tables. The menu options are framed overhead along the perimeter of the ordering area.
Food: Pricey. The portions are on the smaller side (that's refreshing). We ordered the lumberjack special with blueberry pancakes, very good.
Service: Young crowd taking the orders. Good energy, very friendly :).
Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!
Excellent breakfast spot! Â Order at the counter and they will bring your food out to you. Â We all enjoyed our eggs and our outdoor dining experience. Â
But what we enjoyed even more were the desserts we brought for the car ride home... my fave was the lemon ginger muffin and I'm not even really a big ginger fan. Â The pecan cinnamon roll was also great and the carrot cake muffin was another winner! Â I don't think you can go wrong with any of these sweet baked treats!
Great feeling being in New England after the Patriots blow their shot at the Super Bowl. Might have made my experience at Slice of Heaven even sweeter!
We stopped by for breakfast and were overwhelmed (in a good way)by the cake and pastry choices. Resolute to have some eggs in our bellies, we ordered the California Omelette and the Eggs Benedict. You can't go wrong with either, and they were both loaded with ingredients and flavor. Satisfied, we went to the counter to see what we can take home.
We ended leaving with an assortment of baked goods to bring back to our friends. We'll definitely make it a point to stop by when we revisit Jamestown!
Slice of Heaven is open year round, which is a good thing to know if you work here. It's mostly expensive (in my opinion,) but the food is really delicious.
I used to get the Ham & Brie Panino (ham topped with creamy brie and caramelized sweet onions on a baguette.) It has a wonderful balance of sweet, creamy, salty and savory flavors even though it just sounds like a ham and cheese sandwich. Most dishes are like that here.
My Mother ordered the clam chowder and usually you get a creamy dill infused cup of clams with potatoes and onions. Their version has pancetta and corn which makes a difference.
One time my Mother ordered one of their soups. It was a tomato soup and she figured oh well, not inspired but can't ruin it either. They had put some herbs and tomato chunks and something else in it and made it sublimely delicious. She also ordered many other soups. Their sandwiches to me were a good lunch but to my Mother were a bit more than she wanted to eat.
We went here some times but after the little diner in the Mall closed we visited more often. Jamestown has only so many restaurants and the majority of them are on Narragansett Street. Most of the restaurants stay open all year long but not all of them have reasonable prices since around half are tourist type places (in my book.)
The inside of this restaurant are reminiscent of a nice coffee place where people can relax and read. I only say that because the decor is art funky and the whole place is light wood paneled. I like it because in the winter it reflects the light and prevents the interior from becoming dreary. The porch outside is open but covered with a canvas drape. I am not fond of it probably because the porch is gray and I hate the sound of the cast iron cafe seats being dragged across the wood.
They serve Gelato, I don't know if they do it year round but they didn't 2 or 3 years ago. It was only served during the summer season.
I will have to try the Roast Beef Agro é Dolce, (Goat cheese and sweet red pepper jelly on a toasted ciabatta with lettuce and tomato,) the next time I come here.
I was super excited to try this place because I am such a huge fan of chocolate chip and walnut cookies. I guess this cafe has a little charm if you eat outside. Inside seems a little run down and  instead of smelling like a bakery, it was more along the lines of a musty lumber closet. I purchased a fruit tart and 2 medium choco/walnut cookies for the ridiculous price of $9 !! Man, these cookies better be bomb for $2 a piece! Wrong!!
The cookies were like crumbs bonded together by butter not soft chewy nor delicious. Stop and shop makes better cookies for the value price of $4 a bucket! The fruit tart had a weird gooey mixture on top and the crust was comparable to a hockey puck I kid you not. Which on first try, I tossed it in the trash without even trying.I will not be returning and am deeply disturbed that this place won "best of" in RI Monthly.
STOOPID GOOD!!
I don't know where to start, very fresh groceries paired with talented cooks and fine (in the Dougie fresh sense) wait staff. Â Love it on so many levels, can't say enough to convience you to stop or detour to get ur ass inside and enjoy a beautiful breakfast experience.
I've come here every morning so far on my vacation to enjoy the outside cafe and an early morning cafe au lait. Â One the second morning at 0600, I added the california veg omelet to my start. Â Perfectly cooked every time. Â I often find when I am out that its difficult to get a great egg white omelet consistently. Â No issues here and the touch of guacamole on the top just pushes it over the edge.
I then bike back to the vacation house with a different pastry plate just warmly out of the oven for the rest of the lazy heads in my family. Â
If you are in Jamestown, you must make this your morning stop.
In what looks to be a home converted into a restaurant is where you'll find this Slice of  Heaven. If you've never been there before then you should be prepared to know how to order so you're not standing around waiting to be seated. On your right is a counter with some girls taking orders. The menu? Each dish is framed around the edges of the wall. Take some time to browse the selection they have to offer, get in line, place your order, and find a table. Plenty of seating in a calm environment inside or out.
The selection is very unique. I ordered a delicious Greek omelet. Served with a small cup of fruit and giant english muffin. Bacon on the side. My lady ordered the Lumberjack special which I know was just as good as what I ordered because she was kind enough share her blueberry pancake with me :-). Both of us where taken in by how well the meal was put together. So much flavor! Nothing was burnt. Only fresh and high quality ingredients were used. I found that no matter where I go for breakfast in RI the coffee is excellent. Slice is no exception.
Most breakfast dishes were placed around the $9.99 range which seems high for breakfast, but you're getting what you pay for :-).
There was a tasty looking selection of lunch items too that we weren't able to try out, but if I'm allowed to infer based on a great breakfast....awesome.
Bleh....average food, at best. I was hoping for something much better based on other reviews. We stopped there today for lunch. I got the chicken salad wrap (waaaaay too lemon-y of a flavor. It was made with lemon mayo, but that was just about all you could taste of the wrap). My husband got a breakfast burrito, and he thought it was just okay. My son got the grilled cheese, if you can call it that (it was a bun with melted cheese...that tasted bad, to boot).
So, for the money, $35, and what we got... no way are we going to go back.
My BF and I tried this place for the first time. Â After reading all the great reviews, we were very much looking forward to breakfast. Â Â He ordered the Lumberjack (eggs, bacon, pancakes)-average at best. Â Â I ordered a Tuscan panino because I like grilled sandwiches. Â The bread was toasted OK, but the ham and cheese slices were fridge cold. That was disappointing. Â I ended up my meal with a fruit tart and the crust was very hard. Â Â Overall not a great experience for both of us....maybe we will give it another try soon.
Review Source:Fantastic lunch. Had spinach salad, huge but raster with pears and toasted. Walnuts. Veggie burger was delicious with best sweet potato fries we have ever had( crunchy on outside, soft on inside. Also had special soup of the day: chicken tortilla. It was good but chicken was in chances instead of pulled, otherwise I would rate soup excellent. The deserts are worth the drive. We have eaten here often, hard to go wrong with any item.
Review Source:Nice breakfast sandwiches. Try this, it's dope and you'll like it: STRAWBERRY JAM, salt and pepper next to that bacon MMmmmmmMmmm I DIE just thinking about it. So good.
Also amazing are the cookies, esp chocolate chip walnut, and molasses! Shout out to pb whutup PB.
And there you have it. Salads are great too, and for sure - thou shalt balance out thy sins of indulgence (dressing on the side!)
Also just so many nice memories catching up with people I love when I'm back in town.
The perfect cafe has been discovered.
Located over the bridge from Newport in the very pleasant and unassuming, small beach community of Jamestown, Rhode Island, Slice of Heaven Cafe is the whole pie.
The coffee is strong and fresh. The baked goods (Cranberry Apple Muffins, Blueberry Scones, and Banana Zucchini Bread to name just a few ) are baked daily every morning using only local ingredients. Â The grill in the kitchen heats up both familiar home style favorites (a dozen or so omelets, breakbast burritos, egg and maple sausage sandwhiches on a homemade flakey and buttery croissant) and unfamiliar gourmet renditions of classic breakfast and brunch dishes.
The outside seating out front, with its own umbrella strewn patio is the ideal spot for a leisurely weekend or vacation morning - the way a cafe should be - good conversation, a little newspaper reading, and no rush.
You can find cheaper places to eat breakfast, but then you would be missing out on the Grand Marnier French Toast with a medley of fresh berries and topped with Sweet Cream, Fresh Blueberry Buttermilk Pancakes with Maple Syrup, and Smoked Atlantic Salmon on a homemade Sourdough Bagel with homemade cream cheese and capers.
Wash those down with some Nantucket Nectar Pomegranate Pear Juice Cocktail and don't be in such a hurry to leave to see those mansions on the Newport Cliff Walk. Â They look better during sunset anyway.
I was back at Slice just a week or so ago every morning and I am happy to say that they have not only does a few renovations to their interior since December (which was not needed but it looks nice) they have added a full omelet menu. I tried the Santa Fe as well as the Greek. The Santa Fe had a bit too much salsa for my liking and it overwhelmed the eggs, but I am a Cali native and I think I might be a snob when it comes to anything tex-mex. The Greek was delish. I finished out the next 7 days with a breakfast sandwich, the amazing steal cut oatmeal, a breakfast burrito, a few of their muffins and my go to... their classic ice coffee. I do look forward to sitting outside, grabbing the Jamestown press and enjoying a good breakfast at Slice.
Review Source:Nothing better for breakfast in Jamestown. Â We particularly enjoy the steelcut oatmeal or the blueberry pancakes but there is nothing bad on the menu. Â Add delicious baked goods and wonderful outdoor seating and you have a winner. Â Lunch is equally good and dinner during the summer is spectacular. Â Get there early for breakfast if you're going on a weekend, especially a nice one to grab an outside seat.
Review Source:Slice of Heaven lies smack dab in the center of Smalltown, USA. Â Jamestown offers a smalltown feel with only a few of main streets. Â We frequented Slice of Heaven on three different breakfast occasions during our weeklong stay in Jamestown/Newport. Â It was a close drive from our Jamestown resort and the food was always fantastic.
Twice I tried the breakfast burrito (flavorful, moist, and full of ingredients) and once I opted for the "Pomelet," which was an omelet consisting of hash browns, onions, green peppers, ham, bacon, sausage, and cheddar. Â I'm not sure where the unique name comes from, but it's more like a meat-lover's omelet than anything else. Â Both breakfast options were good-sized portions. Â Washing it down with their delicious and refreshing orange juice also hit the spot.
Eating outside on their big covered patio in mild sunny weather made the experience complete. Â It was so peaceful, relaxing, and we always left satisfied. Â I recommend Slice of Heaven for a quiet breakfast experience in Smalltown, USA.
Went here last month on a weeklong vacation during which we staying in Jamestown.
I ordered the Heavenly Burger with Cajun fries. Delicious! The fries were fat steak fries dusted with Cajun seasonings. The burger had cheddar cheese, bacon and guacamole on it. I could only eat half, probably because the fries were so good!
My mom had the Denver omelet, which she said was very good.
We got some desserts to take back to our hotel for later. Wow! The mini-blueberry pies were to-die-for. The crust was light and sweet, as was the blueberry filling.
I definitely recommend this if you're looking for something quality.
Went here for breakfast on a nice Sunday morning.  After finding a seat by the front window, we were approached by a nice gentleman who kindly instructed us on the ordering process (review menu at table, walk to counter to order, etc).  I assume he was the owner and I thought it was considerate for  him to help us. Â
I ordered an omelet special which consisted of salmon, zucchini, and other assorted veggies. Â It was to die for. Â My SO had a more traditional breakfast and was able to substitute blueberry pancakes without any issue. Â Coffee was very good too. Â
Next time I am in (and there will be a next time), I will try a dessert,
Also must mention it got REALLY crowded around 10:30AM due to church down the street getting out. Â You might want to arrive beforehand to avoid this rush.
After walking around the small Jamestown harbor, Slice of Heaven looked so tempting with its sail covered terrace. Â Upon entering my mouth began to water at the case of large deserts. Â Still I was good and ordered a smoothie. Â I ordered a small strawberry smoothie that was anything but small. Â It was yummy and very refreshing.
I wish I had room for food because the sandwiches and salads advertised on the hanging posters looked great ,and I thought it was wicked cute that they even had an option for the dogs - bagel bones. Â
A place that makes its own bagels and bread, has delicious deserts (I know from the yums I heard from the table next to me), and what looks like great sandwiches. Â I guess this really is a slice of heaven (CHEESY).
Nathaniel Tomo is the pastry chef here at Slice of Heaven and he puts this place on the map! I tried one of his newer creations, a light vanilla cake with chantilly cream, covered in crushed sugary meringue pieces. It was delightful. The contrasting textures were excellent, moist cake and crispy meringue. Not too sweet, but sweet enough to pair with a bottomless mug of coffee on a cool morning near the coast. His other pastries looked great, but we'd just had lunch. Next time I'll have to try some of the many varieties of muffins and mini croissants. Boston cream pies available as well! Can't wait to see what chef Nathan will think up next.
Not only that, the fish and chips are also superb. Arguably the best I've ever had in New England. 2 large cod filets with some of the crispiest, airiest batter I've ever had on fish. Came with some fries, which were supposed to be cajun spiced but instead were plain and a little less crisp than I'dve liked. Maybe if they twice fried them, they'd be much better. Regardless best fried cod I've had in a while. Came with some flavorful house tartar sauce and malt vinegar.
Would be 5 stars for Nathan Tomo's delightful cake and excellent fish, but is 4 for less than great fries and kind of a prohibitively high price for fish and chips ($12.99).
Nice little place if you're looking for a coffeehouse-type place on the island. Â
Coffee is good, but not great. Â All the pastries that we've tried were pretty exceptional, especially the banana cocoa muffin and the apple turnover. Â Lunch and dinner are available, and quite good, just on the pricey side.
I've been back to Slice of Heaven several times since my initial review. First of all, I have to say that the Southwestern Grilled Chicken Burrito is the best burrito I've ever had. The fish (cod) and chips are also very nice.
With the warm weather has come outdoor seating on a terrace in front of the restaurant. From there you can watch the world go by on Jamestown's main drag.
Slice of Heaven is the island's idea of a coffee house. No Starbucks or D&D's here. Actually it's a lot more and they also serve meals and do fantastic catering but most people come here for the coffee and pastries.
The coffees, cappuccinos and lattes are great. Far, far better than the watered down D&D stuff. and their "special dark" definitely has a kick. The home made pastries are rich, tasty and undoubtedly highly caloric but if you are going to pig out it might as well be on something this good. I shudder to think how many calories I have consumed on their pastries.
For meals they have a variety of salads, soups, sandwiches and some great burgers. My favorites are the California wraps. Many different types, with a great selection of ingredients. The veggie wrap is especially good, it literally oozes out of the wrap and it's a challenge to get it into your mouth where it belongs.
Slice of Heaven seems especially proud of their handmade Gelato. I'm not sure if there is any other way to make it but the Gelato is great after a day of biking or yaking the island. Â You can usually find a copy of the Jamestown Press hanging around and they frequently have a coupon for a free Gelato.
The food is great but the coolest part is that the place is right in the center of the Jamestown. You can sit outside and watch the ships go by in the bay and enjoy the sea breezes. A great place to begin or end a Conanicut Island trip.
This place is an adorable, small-town coffee shop - no Starbucks on this island!
They have GREAT lattes and friendly staff. I had a croissant from here once that was buttery and delicious.
They have a food menu although I have never eaten a full meal here.
Great place to hang out and get a cup of coffee, read the paper, and enjoy small town life!
