Deal Closed: A New Future for 48 Commons!

May 29, 2026

We have some incredible news to share! The Commons Foundation is thrilled to officially congratulate Adam and Kaitlin Donahue on closing their acquisition of 48 Commons.

The historic property-known to generations of locals as Commons Lunch-will soon begin its next chapter as Elsie's on the Commons.

As a Little Compton native, Kaitlin, along with Adam, represents the perfect next generation of caretakers for this cherished landmark. Their vision to revive the space with breakfast and lunch service will restore the vibrant, daily gathering spot our town center has been missing.

Congratulations to Adam and Kaitlin—we can’t wait to grab a seat at the counter!
