The Darling Gift Shop On The Water In Warwick, Rhode Island

The Crow’s NEST

Recently I decided, completely at the last minute, that I wanted to pick-up clam cakes, chowder, and lobster rolls for dinner for the fam.

That’s how the hubs and I ended up motoring over to the Apponaug section of Warwick to Crow’s Nest, and stumbling on CHANGING TIDES, the cutest gift shop around that also happens to feature an amazing selection of Apponaug merch (sweatshirts, tees, totes, baseball style hats, maps, and MORE).

Let me just tell you that the food (clam cakes, red and white chowder, fish n’ chips, cole slaw, and lobster rolls) was fantastic. I mean, my momma was bragging about everything the following day.

Also their outside area, aka patio, is so nice looking. (We were grabbing our takeout order. There was a wait to dine in, so if they take reservations, I’d recommend making them. This place is pretty popular.)

But back to that shop or shanty as the owner call it!

Open since 2020, this waterfront shop carries a delightful selection of items in addition to those that let you show your love of that neck of the woods, including a gorgeous Rhode Island cutting board with blue detailing meant to mimic ocean water that caught my eye on the way in.

Also wind chimes, sea glass, lighthouse travel mugs, nautical coasters, and the like.

This place has oodles of lovely things: We simply could NOT leave without buying something! (For the record I bought an Apponaug crewneck sweatshirt for the hubs.)

They are open Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays from 12noon to 4pm, so plan accordingly.

Find Changing Tides Gift Shop at 355 Arnolds Neck Road and the Crow’s Nest Restaurant at 288 Arnolds Neck, both in Warwick, RI.
