Welcome to Community Cookery

The Community Cookery

Community Cookery, located within the historic Seamen’s Church Institute, is more than just a café — it’s a mission-driven space where food meets purpose. Operated by Newport Community School in partnership with the Aquidneck Island Adult Learning Center, our café serves as a training ground for aspiring cooks and hospitality professionals, providing hands-on experience in a supportive, real-world environment. Every bite you enjoy helps fuel a brighter future — with 100% of profits supporting the impactful work of Newport Community School.

The Community Cookery Café is now open daily 7:00 A.M. – 2: 00 P.M.,  except Wednesdays.
