They appear to have a very limited selection, and their prices are crazy. $32 for a half-gram preroll? $63 for a half-gram vape cart? Even with 20% off, that's still waaaay overpriced.

That's downtown Providence, close to College Hill and Federal Hill.

College Hill is home to RISD and Brown U, along with lots of historic buildings. Up that way, I'd check out RISD museum and Providence Athenaeum. Thayer and Wickenden Streets are popular nearby designs for shopping and dining. There's also India Point Park, which offers easy terrain and lovely views.

Federal Hill is one of the nation's oldest "Little Italy" neighborhoods, with great food and decent nearby bars. Thanks to the presence of JWU, Providence has tons of great dining options.

South Providence is home to Roger Williams Park, which has a decent zoo, a small natural history museum with planetarium, and a lovely botanical garden. The park itself is beautifully landscaped, with the same designer as NYC's Central Park.

If you like trees and/or old cemeteries, there's Swan Point. It's a gorgeous place - a nationally recognized arboretum that happens to be where H.P. Lovecraft is buried.

Newport is less than an hour's drive away with plenty of its own attractions, primary among which are the old mansions. Thames Street is a popular tourist destination. I'm not sure about the current status of the Cliff Walk, but if it's open, it's worth a stroll.

Narragansett is a bit closer. Like Newport, it has lovely ocean-view drives.

What else can I tell you?

Yes, it's tucked away in one of the old factory buildings near the highway!

$10, play-all-day entry, with dozens of machines from the 50s through modern day, plus a bunch of arcade cabinets.
