“I have had breakfast here w/ a group of HS graduate friends on numerous occasions.. The food was always good, and in spite of the variations ordered, delicious, hot, and served all at the same time. Waitresses were always pleasant, polite and good humored. (Image the ribbing they took from 6 to 10 older men! Friday, 3/15/24 ,my wife, my sister, my nephew and I had the dinner special for 2. Each :Cup of Chowder, 2 Clam Cakes, Fries, and Fish. EXCELLENT in every sense of the word and good portions!

“Great food and drinks on outdoor patio! Our server was very attentive even though it was a busy Friday night!

Vegetarian options: The sweet potato black bean burger was very good.

Parking: Went on a Friday night on Gaspee weekend. So all of Pawtuxet village was packed. But found neighborhood parking about a 5 minute walk away.“

“Where does one start and stop?? Delicious Portuguese burger! Any of their phenomenal pizzas! The wings? Forget about it! ...Simply Bomb! Always amazingly crafted cocktails! Great beer selection! Without a doubt Shorty's Pub truly stands up to any restaurant in my opinion!“

“Stopped by for lunch. The bang bang shrimp app was the best I’ve ever had. We had the lobster roll and fish tacos which were outstanding. I would definitely go there again.“

“Always love the 99 for its great food, friendly service and great atmosphere….“

“atmosphere was cute... service great. food was subpar. paid $60 for a steak sandwich that looked & tasted like a TV dinner, appetizer that tasted like canned chicken soup, and fries that were definitely under the heater for too long“

“Go there for the anti-semitism. Stay for the anti-Semitic owners.“

“one of my favorite places to go when i visit my family :) large portions and great food“

“One of the oldest pubs in the United States, just not the same name lol. The Son's of Liberty drank here! They still serve Half-Yards! A beer drinkers Mecca they have dozens of bottles and draft options. Priced right. One caveat, they haven't painted since the Son's drank there so keep a sense of humor. Great place for some suds. I've been a customer for over thirty years.

Dietary restrictions: As long as it's beer or whiskey you are good!

Kid-friendliness: Not!“

“The food was excellent and the service was great. Some of the other customers were very nice and respectful. Will definitely be going back. Excellent job“

“Moved in across the street recently and have been in a couple of times already and will definitely be back often. nice place, great food and terrific staff. 👍“

“My waitress was great and bring Murphy, my gsd, was a great treat. The Gorgonzola burger was tasty and made to my request. The club fries were awesome and the rest brought home. Never have I brought fries home.“

“I will never forget that time back 2022 when we were meeting with family on a Saturday night. I was pregnant and the DD. But the bartender understood the assignment! When it was time for pickle shots I got my own shot glass of pickle juice. Felt included lol. He was awesome! Oh and also had amazing wings and fries.“

“As half of a hungry, grumpy couple heading north after a wonderful stay in Newport, we were about to give up on finding a 'decent' place for lunch. The Rt. 114 stretch was becoming increasingly barren.

Then The Publick House appeared on our left, with people sitting outside and a welcoming deep green 'home' drawing us in ... a crazy uturn at 65 mph got us there ...

The obvious sports bar atmosphere was very cool, with star-filled photos and jerseys covering every wall -- ALL signed by some of the greatest athletes to play professional sports in the USA -- a veritable paradise for fans and collectors alike.

Well, I've already spent too many words on a long-winded 'intro' ... but the food was over-the-top amazing ... from sweet-fried cauliflower bites to a queso-corn dip with tasty chips ... and fish and chips with fresh haddock ... and a California Bowl topped with perfectly grilled shrimp! Honestly, we were a bit shocked at the quality and the flavors .... and the welcoming service and attention from Nicole -- it was a very big WOW! .... and a perfect ending to our trip.

We will be back some time. And if you haven't had The Publick House ecperience, get there soon -- you will not regret it ...“
