The Original Haven Brothers Diner Providence
If you find yourself wandering the vibrant streets of Providence, Rhode Island, make sure to carve out some time for a legendary culinary experience at The Original Haven Brothers Diner. Nestled at 12 Dorrance St, this iconic diner is not just a place to eat—it's a slice of American history, operating since the days of horse-drawn carriages. Open late into the night, it has established itself as a beloved staple for locals and visitors alike. With a phone call away at +1 401-862-6703, you’ll want to grab your friends and head over to indulge in their mouthwatering offerings.
One of the standout features of Haven Brothers is their extensive and enticing menu. From their crispy mozzarella sticks served with marinara to the ultimate comfort dish, loaded fries, the appetizers set the perfect tone for what’s to come. Diner classics are reimagined here, with burgers like the Flip the Bird, which layers juicy patty choices (beef, turkey, or veggie) with fresh toppings like avocado and bacon. And let’s not overlook the infamous Murder Burger, which manages to leave a lasting impression as noted by satisfied patrons.
The diner’s foot-long subs are equally tantalizing, especially the Fat Subs that combine chicken tenders, mozzarella sticks, and fries on a 12-inch roll. Topped with your choice of sauce—be it marinara or BBQ—these subs epitomize late-night indulgence in Providence. With late-night hours, Haven Brothers transforms from a casual diner into an electrifying gathering spot where friends meet post-night out, fostering an atmosphere that is as special as the food itself.
And let’s talk about the shakes, which customers rave about for good reason. The Golden Oreo Milkshake has earned its spot as a showstopper, crafting an experience that transcends the traditional diner shake. Those who have tried it claim it might just be the best milkshake they’ve ever had, a testament to Haven Brothers' commitment to quality.

“ One of the oldest mobile diners in the country! They started with a horse-drawn carriage. They work in the dead of night in a sketchy part of Providence. But they sling great burgers and fries. Got to eat mine while a street person asked me for 2 and offered me candy in exchange, and then went off on a rant about how good Haven Brothers was. I agree! ”
“ Absolute staple in Providence, RI. Food is always great during late night hours and shakes are phenomenonal. They are open very late which also makes it an easy choice. I highly recommend Haven Bros!!! ”
“ I’ve been to Haven brothers diner many times over the years. The food has always been excellent, the service is always been great and the atmosphere is always electric, especially after dark. It’s a place where friends can go and dine after a night out in the city and enjoy a uniquely Rhode Island experience. ”
“ I happened upon this place by accident on my first trip to Rhode Island. Tom was incredibly helpful and welcoming. The Murder Burger was phenomenal. It was the Milkshake that blew my mind. With a million options I didn't want to go with my classic oreo so I mixed it up just slightly and went with the Golden Oreo. I'm not kidding when I say that might be the best milkshake I've ever had. I can see why celebrities and locals love this place! ”
“ Never been disappointed here. So historic. Well-priced, fresh bread for the hotdogs so they're super tasty. The milkshakes could probably be thicker though. Cajun spice doesn't taste like anything at all. ”
“ A great place to get a bite to eat right on the streets of downtown Providence! The rodeo cheeseburger was amazing! So we’re the onion rings, cheese fries and regular hamburger! Service was great! Very fast and friendly! Walk right in, order and pick up your food at the window outside. Prices are very reasonable. I definitely recommend trying this place out! You will not be disappointed! ”
“ Being a diner guy, I had to check this place off my bucket list. A Tiny, tin establishment that cranks out nice sized deliciously topped burgers and I wolfed down a really tasty RI style weiner with fries. They have many flavored milkshakes to enjoy and some cool pictures of how the place has been in movies and shows. Only downside, no bathrooms and I couldn't find one for a 6 year old in the city hall area. It's definitely a cool experience with good grub and I'd like to try more menu items next time. ”
“ I'd say definitely come try this place at least once. It was fun to order inside and experience the mobile diner that has been around since 1893. Inside there are photos of movies and shows that have featured the diner, which was fun to see. It wasn't the best burger I've ever had, but it was big and was good. We had the Original and the After Dark. The Haven style fries were good! My kids really liked the fried dough and churros. Would recommend it for the experience. ”
