Beaucoup Cafe in Newport, Rhode Island.

Why does this mean so much to you?

Entering Beaucoup is like walking into a warm hug. Everyone knows your name and they always make you feel welcome — that you belong in their cozy, calm, peaceful and beautiful space surrounded by beautiful things from owner Cheryl Guibone’s travels to Europe. While sitting at a bistro table, listening to music, sipping tea and eating their heavenly croissant, it sometimes feels as if time is suspended. The baristas and maison boutique staff are smiles galore — great teas and coffees, yummy pastries, breakfasts and sandwiches. Try it, you'll like it!

Warmth during cold times, happiness, caring, laughs and good times — a great place to gather with friends.
