And we understand how challenging it can be to wade through all the happenings and decide what events to attend, where to eat, and what to shop for. That’s why we’re here to share the top things we’re excited about in the coming week in each installment of “The Weekly.” Each week, we’ll rant and rave unabashedly about just a slice of the food, fun, and fantastic items that we’re currently obsessed with in downtown Providence, RI.

WHERE TO ORDER FRESH VALENTINE’S DAY FLOWERS IN DOWNTOWN PROVIDENCE
When Jephry Floral Studio relocated and opened at 326 Westminster Street in downtown Providence in Fall 2025, we were beyond excited! And now that Valentine’s Day is almost upon us, we’re so grateful to have a spot for fresh flowers right on our doorstep.
Jephry has a variety of Valentine’s themed bouquets available for preorder on their website catalog. Pre-ordering as soon as possible is the best way to ensure that your flowers will be ready for the big day! Additionally, the store will be open from 9 am to 5 pm on Valentine’s Day itself, Saturday, Feb. 14. Walk-in customers will be able to order from the existing, in-store inventory as long as it lasts.
(A tip: Customers can use the Grace Church parking lot for free parking for 15-20 minutes when shopping at Jephry.)

SUPERBOWL SUNDAY: OBERLIN LASAGNA DEADLINE & SEAFOOD TOWER PREGAME DEAL
