More Than a Café —
It's a Neighborhood Staple
McShortagees started with a simple idea: what if your local café felt like a place where everyone belonged? No pretense, no rush — just good coffee, honest food, and a bar that turns the corner into evening relaxation.
Located right here in East Providence on Willett Avenue, we've become the spot where neighbors grab their morning brew, coworkers meet for lunch, and friends gather after work. It's casual, it's warm, and it's always ours.
A Peek Inside
From the espresso machine to the bar stools — here's a look at the space that makes McShortagees home.
