Top Restaurants for Business Travelers in Providence, RI – JUNYUAN
The Business Backpack is an excellent backpack for business travelers, easily going from a professional everyday carry bag to a carry-on backpack for travel.
As The Business Backpack travels for work, many also like to take some “tourist time” after a day of meetings or extend their trip over the weekend to explore a new city.
Seeing this love of adventure, the Knack Team thought it would be a great idea to share our recommendations of things to do when visiting different cities.
We’re a 100% remote company, so over the next few months, we’ll share recommendations for visiting places like Dallas, Texas, Providence, Rhode Island, Denver, Colorado – and a few other cities. You can read our recommendations for Portland, OR!
Today, Junyuan CEO, Chad Mellen, shares his recommendations for making the most out of a business trip to Providence, Rhode Island.
Should You Stay in an Airbnb or Hotel?
Depending on where in Providence you want to stay, the selection for AirBnBs can be considerably better than for hotels. If a Knackpacker really wants to stay in the downtown area, I recommend The Hotel Providence. It is a boutique hotel that is nicely decorated and sits in the heart of downtown Providence within walking distance of some great restaurants and stores.

Recommended Restaurants In and Around Providence, Rhode Island
(Rhode Island, and Providence, in particular, have an incredible selection of restaurants, so there is quite a list of recommendations! We’ve sorted recommendations by the type of dining to make it easier to plan your trip.)
Trying to identify my personal favorite restaurant in Rhode Island is like trying to identify my favorite Beatles song (which is “The Word” BTW). There are so many good ones to choose from it’s next to impossible. Since Rhode Island has restaurant schools (Johnson and Wales being the most notable one), food incubators (Hope & Main), vineyards, many local farms, and a long-standing farm-to-table tradition, there are really many more great restaurants in Rhode Island than one would expect given our size. That said, here I go:

Nick’s on Broadway – Breakfast
This place is the best place for breakfast/brunch in Providence. Fantastic eggs benedict.
Seven Stars Bakery – Breakfast and Coffee
This sit-down bakery is a great place for coffee and baked goods. Their cinnamon buns are pure heaven. They have 4 locations around Rhode Island.
