Experience the charm of Federal Hill - Providence’s Little Italy!  A great place to visit with authentic Italian food emporiums, bakeries, and old-world charm.  Stroll through the streets, take in the aroma of freshly baked bread and espresso, and enjoy a taste of Italy as you relax by the beautiful fountain in DesPasquale Square.

We’ll begin our day with coffee and pastries at Roma Foods, a beloved Federal Hill staple since 1982.  Roma is an Italian specialty shop featuring an in-house bakery, pizza shop, deli, and prepared food section, along with imported pasta, olive oils, and more.

Next, we’ll dine at Trattoria Appia, a Southern Italian kitchen known for its handmade pasta and wood-fired pizza. Our five-course family-style meal includes: Insalata di Cesare, Pizza Margherita, Gnocchi alla Nonna, Pomodori Mozzarella, Penne Bolognese, and Pollo Marsala - all topped off with Cannoli and Coffee.

After lunch, we’ll stroll over to Venda Ravioli Emporium to browse and shop for fine Italian foods, olive oils, and cheeses.

We’ll wrap up the day with a guided tour of Providence, led by our local step-on guide, offering a deeper look at the city’s rich history and culture.
