Harriet’s Kitchen

The food is amazing here! I find myself coming here way too often. Some diner food doesn’t even look edible, but Harriet’s looks AND tastes amazing! What more could you ask for?! The service is spot on. The wait can get long on weekends but I find it well worth it. I always get the bacon and tomato omelet and it’s consistent each time. The home fries are AMAZING! Even better than Athena’s on Park Ave. Highly recommend.

Good food with large portions! ! You could honestly order one meal and split it with someone. Fair prices and diner atmosphere

Very good food, terrible long waits and waitstaff that completely ignore you. We keep going back for the variety and good food, but the downside with service and consistency of food has made us stop going

Best homefries ever.
Came here for a quick breakfast with a friend, our waitress was so friendly, the food was pretty standard diner fare, but those home fries were just perfect! I’ll come back just for those!

The owner of Harriets invited us to come back after reading about our bad experience there. We decided to give it another chance. We were greeted and served coffee right away. Our orders came out extremely fast and the food was ok… no complaints. The owner came by to say hi and talked to us about our previous visit. After we were finished eating the waitress said there was no charge. It was very nice of him and you can tell he cares what people think of his place and wants you to be a satisfied customer.

Service is definitely lacking… We went for breakfast and it wasn’t that crowded. Still… Waited 10 minutes to even get noticed or offered coffee. Ordered… and requested NO homefries but spicy apples instead. Got our plates WITH homefries. .and hard spicy apples on the side. Our omletes were «ok»…They were a good size. and stuffed. however the veggies were more of chunks rather than chopped so you could eat the omletes easily.

Looks like only 2 waitresses were actually working. Although we noticed at least 3 other «workers» standing around. I think they were more concerened with looking cute or not breaking a fingernail (Not sure). Our waitress was very nice but too busy to even bring us more coffee… When she finally did come back she had 1 water not coffee.
Now when I go to cashout the 3 staff memebers were still hoovered at the register. It took 4 minutes just to get cashed out even. I was the only person there at that time. Then I had to ask for a pen to sign my sales slip gessh. Overall the place is okay but the service really sucks.

I’ve been coming to Harriet’s for awhile now, they have good size portion, friendly staff and usually quick service. The omelets are huge and delicious. Only bad thing I have to say is the inconsistency of the home fires, on some days their the best I’ve ever had and on other days they can be burnt and overcooked.

Harriet’s Kitchen has the real wow factor for a filling and delicious breakfast. First off, the waitresses are very friendly. The food comes out very fast, especially considering I came in with a large group. The portion sizes are huge! A plate of pancakes fills an entire large plate with multiple layers. The topping selection is awesome and fun — with out skimping on whipped cream and fruit options. The bacon was very well made and tasty. The home fries were really done to perfection! The fruit was very fresh, and definitely try their baked spiced apples! Overall, Harriet’s does not disappoint and truly knows the value of a good, hearty, and filling start to the day!

Loved it! The breakfast is awesome, and the portion sizes are amazing! If I am ever back in the Western Cranston area, I will stop in for breakfast again!

Second time… worse than the first. Last year my husband and I gave this place a try after reading a local news article about the home fries. The food was «okay» but we were missing spoons and we couldn’t get the waitress’s attention. Today we thought we’d try it again. Mistake. No greeting, no «be right with you», not even a smile. The waitresses just kept walking by us. We watched another couple come in, sit down and get waited on right away. We finally just got up and left. Never again. Thank goodness for T’s Restaurant.

Wow! I am a big Sunday breakfast fan. This was the first time for me. Came based on a recommendation. Glad I did. Excellent home fries, good big omelets, clean, great service. Could not ask for anything better in a small cozy breakfast place.

Eggs were cooked just as I wanted them… they were not cheap with the bacon. home fries were delicious… soft and full of flavor. Italian toast with the perfect amount of butter. And that’s just the basic meal!

One of the best breakfasts I’ve had in a long time. Huge portions, yummy home fries. Very inexpensive kids meals-(hooray, as usually they are overpriced). A HUGE menu of breakfast and lunch items. The service was very nice and helpful. Only complaint— service was slow-​we waited 30 minutes for our food, probably because of the huge crowd and need for additional servers. Be prepared to wait, wouldn’t bring a large party between 10 and 2.
All menus very reasonably priced. Finally a great breakfast/​brunch joint that doesn’t break the bank…

Love this place! Steak & cheese is awesome. The bread that it comes with is fresh baked instead of a regular sub roll. Plus they are open late night.

Gave it another try and it was worth it! Walked in and seated myself. Food arrived at a normal time and it was delicious.

I drive by Harriets all the time. I kept telling myself I would try it someday. Today was the day.
I have to say, I am impressed. I just had breakfast with a friend, but breakfast can be special. This breakfast was. Lots of food and reasonably priced. I wouldn’t say cheap, but that’s because I have a great cheap place in Pawtucket!
My friend had the breakfast special. It said two eggs, toast, and home fries. It looked like four scrambked eggs on the plate! The eggs were perfect. People think scrambled eggs can’t come out bad, but they can. These were really good.
I hot the big breakfast with BOTH pancakes and french toast, with two eggs, home fries, bacon, and toast. The idea was split this plate.
Everything was done right, and I have lots of leftovers!
I’ll be back!

First time we have been to Harriet’s, I noticed it rated as a top breakfast place in AAA.
We eat out for breakfast on the weekends so we have a pretty good sampling of places. Wife had hash with dropped egg, kids had French toast and ham & cheese omelet, I had spinach & cheese omelet. We could barely finish our plates, big servings and all was delicious. The wait staff was very friendly and made sure our beverages were topped off. Looking at the menu we will be back for more than breakfast.
Definitely a 5 star rating.

This was my first time here and it really exceeded my expectations.
Let’s set the scene. 1am on a Saturday night and I pass this place with a full parking lot and I knew something was up.
Full menu late night is amazing. Everyone on here seems to talk about the home fries and I agree they are the best!
Great to have a late night diner in the area. Fast service, great staff, clean, and super fair prices… and did I mention home fries?

If you ask ANYONE who knows Barrington Burns, they’ll tell you this — I hate having to leave a review like this.
Harriet’s kitchen looks like a great place, good service, no obscene waiting, great spot to play a little Keno. I honestly think it warrants a second chance. I got a veggie omelet with american cheese, which, after completing, almost immediately made me very gassy. Didn’t really taste good, was pretty runny, which for an omelet is generally not a great sign. Potatoes were good, nice hot cup of Joe was never empty. Won a buck playing keno.
My disappointment stems from the four egg omelet generating so much excitement that I dug right in. I was not half as excited when it shot out the other end — with great propulsion. I would hate to see them lose any business based on this assessment. They run a tight ship over there, and do a bang up job cultivating a great relaxing atmosphere for a casual breakfast.
Still, that being said, we are all consumers in this wild world, and I was sad to consume that omelet.

Tuesday morning, the last thing we (fiancé and I) needed was a snobby waitress. Okay so maybe she’s having a bad day, fine. We ordered– I had stuffed french toast and he had corn beef hash, in which he asked for well done, crispy outside.
Food came and wow did my stuffed french toast look amazing! looks can be deceiving. I sliced and bit into what was the soggiest, just watered down toast. They had used frozen, yes frozen thawed out blueberries and strawberries. When i asked the waitress is my dish suppose to be this wet and watery, she said it was the juice from the fruits. The only fresh fruit were the bananas. If I’m going to pay nearly $ 9 for two slices of french toast and fruits, the very least it could have been fresh fruit.
On to the corn beef hash. We always, I mean always order corn beef hash no matter what breakfast diner we go to. Luckily, we know what good corn beef hash is suppose to taste like so we just made an exception. Their version was just down right slimey, taste so metallic as if it’s been poured out from a can. We asked for well done, it came out as a plop. Just nasty.
Two stars for the fresh banana and yummy home fries. maybe service was bad for us because I had no make up on, who knows. All I know is the men around me had superb friendly good mornings and smiles. we got smirks.
