The absolute GOAT in news kiosks. The people who work here are as classy as the newspapers they carry, including hard to find ones like The Financial Times.

My favorite newsstand in New England. The place is class, from the newspapers they carry -- the FT and the WSJ -- to the people who work there. Nothing but love for Oakwells.

55 dollars for a wall charger and cord that costs $5 on Amazon with a sign that says "electronics are non refundable" is taking advantage of those that forget their charger and are in a bad spot. I refused to buy.

Please do not plan to get anything from here. It is literally robbery. $5 for a small bag of chips. $5 for a normal sized bottle of water. Just go to the movie theater to buy your snacks, it'll still save you money. So embarrassing.

Great Job Oakwells!!! Mary that works in the Providence location is a breath of fresh air. I frequent this store most mornings before heading to work and she ALWAYS greets her patrons with a smile. This store sells adorable RI trinkets, jewelry sweatshirts, snacks and much more. One day I was in a hurry and I forgot it was my coworkers birthday and Mary was quick to assist me in helping pick out a gift she even helped me wrap it (since they sell gift bags and tissue paper which is GREAT when your in a pinch). I wish more people were like Mary it would make the world a happier place. The prices are a little on the high side but that is expectable being in a train station (similar to airport or any venue you visit).

The service is great due mostly because it's a small establishment. The prices, however, are far from small. But chalk that up to the high rent and whatever other overhead they have to pay to be situated in the Amtrak station. Good alternative to Cafe la France for those mornings when you just want a paper and some soda without waiting in line behind people getting a bagel/wrap/sandwich/breakfast. Or maybe some cheeky RI/MA trinkets and memorabilia for those people who still like receiving stuff like that.
