Reviews
Great spot in the downtown area with good food and drinks. Our go to for tonight was chicken bruschetta sandwich and steak and cheese sandwich. Both got the homemade potato chips with onion dip. They have new drinks on the menu; tried the brown sugar smoke show. Great combo with mezcal and brown sugar bourbon. Always a good meal!
Food was just ok and waited way way too long for it; and it wasn't busy at all. Friendly staff and additional seating outside. Tends to get loud once crowd picks up. Great place for beer as they have a huge selection.
We stopped by for a quick bite - ordered the Fish and Chips, Yellowfin Fish Tacos, and an app of Stuffies! The Fish and Chips were amazing - huge fish, lightly fried, and delicious. Tacos were also solid! Service was amazing, fast and friendly!
Great service, no wait time and with comic con in the area that’s amazing. Very friendly helpful staff! Great food I would definitely recommend the burgers and the calamari!
Great local hangout. Extensive food and drink menu. Fun bar atmosphere!
Service was awesome, very relaxing atmosphere food was good great bar food
Lots beer on tap
Amazing ambiance, food and value. The burger was very good as was the Christopher platter and the salmon, much better than expected. What really puts this place over the top was the lobster nachos, a bit pricy at $32 but very filling with plenty of lobster!
The service was great and the food was terrific! I asked the server for a recommendation and she recommended the Chicken Al Forno. Great choice. It’s a big plate, perfect for sharing. The vibe is cozy and intimate.
Great place to go during the week or the weekend for a beer and other drinks!
Being a regular, my personal favorite pub to hit whenever I crave a Guinness! But they have a ton more to choose from. …
This used to me my favorite place, hadn't been in years, went last week and the beer list is the same as years ago. RI has 38 breweries now, should def start supporting the craft beer scene with your "speakeasy" feel.
