My friend is coming to visit me in RI tomorrow. I go to URI but I'm also from a different state so I'm not sure where to take her. Any suggestions are welcomed :)

Hey, yesterday I posted this list. Would any of these be of interest?
A photo at the Brown University gates (College/Prospect) and another at the state capitol
Seven Stars Bakery for coffee
Al Forno’s (best pizza honors and award from the Italian government)
Greg’s Deli lunch
PV Donuts (1 each Masala, Passion Fruit, and Boston Cream)
Walk down Benefit Street
Check out the mural on Friendship Street
Theater at Trinity
Take out from Pastiche
Ice skating down town open air rink
Pizza on Federal Hill, deep dish Sicilia’s
Day trip loop to Coffee Depot in Warren, DeWolfe Tavern in Bristol, Ocean Ave scenic drive in Newport (you can park at LaSalle to walk the cliff walk if weather permits), Thames Street cobblestones in Newport, Beavertail in Jamestown, and a stop in Wickford.
Add pizza strips, coffee syrup, Del’s, chowdah, and New York System for the win.

Come over to Newport and check out the mansions, go walk around Thames street and get lunch/drinks. Take a drive down Ocean drive and stop by Fort Adams quick, then continue the rest of the way down ocean drive and back to Bellevue. Go check out one of Newport/Middletown’s beaches.
Here’s a vid of some of the mansions. Some are still privately owned and some are museums. https://youtu.be/7p7orqSHqEI I would recommend touring the Breakers.
thank you!!!
thanks for the suggestions!
Interesting list thx for sharing!
Matunick oyster Bar. Not far from campus. Royal bobcat for cocktails if you go to the city or east Greenwich on the weekends. Share some interests,RI has a lot to offer.
I’m from Moosup, CT, which is right on the border of RI, my buddy went to College in RI and lived in Warwick right behind the airport. For like five months when we were in college we went to a different Chinese restaurant in the area every Friday night. We stopped doing it before we hit them all.
Our other friend would cone along sometimes, we all three have very fond memories of House of Wu in West Warwick.
Umbrella Factory is closed until the weekend. Ocean Mist is definitely a good idea during the daytime. Walk a beach. Point Judith. Check out Newport - Stop by Beavertail and downtown Jamestown on the way.
Literally nothing, go to another state 😈
Great list

Assuming you live close to URI? Definitely a local beach! Maybe also the seawall, or point Judith lighthouse. Not sure about your interests, but the Umbrella Factory is a cool spot, the Ocean Mist or maybe a local brewery like Whalers. A local seafood restaurant for clamcakes and chowder.
