Providenciales doesn’t have any internationally branded coffee shops. On Grand Turk, the Grand Turk Cruise Center has a Starbucks, yet there are no other Starbucks, Dunkin’ Donuts, Krispy Kreme, or Costa coffee shops anywhere else in the Turks and Caicos.
Locally Roasted Coffee
The Turks and Caicos has a local coffee roaster, TCI Coffee Roasters, which is based on the island of Providenciales. Specializing in gourmet blends, their products are offered in many shops and boutiques on Providenciales. You can choose from light, medium, dark, and decaffeinated blends. TCI Coffee Roasters only uses organic and sustainably sourced beans, which have the green ‘Rainforest and Bird-Friendly’ certification.
Unlike some other Caribbean destinations, such as Jamaica and the Dominican Republic, coffee isn’t grown in the Turks and Caicos, and all beans that are roasted here are imported.
Fresh Baked Goods
To complement a great cup of coffee, most shops and cafés also offer freshly baked Danishes, muffins, croissants, donuts, cookies, and other delicious choices, which are made onsite. For a wider selection, there are a few bakeries on the island, which also create baguettes, sourdoughs, and much more.
