33 Best Cocktail Bars near Greenville

“One of the best cigar bars in RI! The ventilation system is incredible, every seat is very comfortable and their selection is top notch. Highly recommend!“

“My husband and I split the pappardelle bolognese as a takeout meal. Even though it was takeout, we could not have been more impressed with the flavor, presentation, and quality. Some of the best food we’ve ever had! The bread and butter that came on the side was exquisite. Seriously, our best meal in Rhode Island! We are looking forward to returning to try more of the menu, we would recommend this to anyone! Can’t praise Giuseppe‘s enough!“

“As I said “ INTERESTING PLACE ““

“Great place to have a good drink!!“

“Gift Horse has been on our list for a while every time we visit Providence, and I am so glad we finally made it in. It was so good.

We came after dinner for some light bites and drinks, but honestly, I wish we had come here for a full dinner instead. The monkfish toast was fantastic, the oysters were incredibly fresh, and the martini was exactly what I wanted. 🍸

Even though we only came in for a few bites, everything made me want to come back and experience the full menu. This is definitely going on my list for our next Providence trip. A great spot for dinner, drinks, or just a few really good things at the bar. 🦪“

“What an incredible bar! It's got a nice and cozy vibe. We started our night here, and it was the perfect beginning of our evening. The bartender Mickey was super attentive, and made delicious drinks that was precisely to our preferences. I had a great time here, and I can see myself coming back every time I go to Providence!“

“Juncal Mexican Grill & Bar in Cumberland, RI, is truly a hidden gem!! Everything was homemade and delicious!! The “hot sauce” is a must! The drinks were refreshing and mixed just right. The guava moscow mule is a must try! The service was amazing too. Everyone was so friendly and attentive—they really made us feel at home. The warm churros are served with hot fudge and caramel… absolutely delicious. If you’re craving authentic Mexican food, great drinks, and a relaxed, welcoming vibe, definitely give Juncal a try!“

“Very cool place with great music and staff. Monday night jazz is awesome!“

“Was visiting Providence with my fiance for the weekend so we do not know the area. We stumbled upon this great little spot and I must say the food was amazing. Ro behind the counter was great, they gave us great local recommendations and made sure we enjoyed our meal which we did for sure. Bloody Mary was on point, and the food was delicious, we will definitely be back I never write reviews however I feel people need to check this spot out. Great food and experience“

“thanks for a friendly, fun, entertaining afternoon. Food was so flavorful and the drinks were delicious 😋 jazz music was so enjoyable 🥰“

“Great atmosphere! And Christine our server was awesome. Very friendly and helpful. She checked on us consistently- thanks! I only got pics of our appetizers as we were hungry and chowed on our mani courses. Started with a 1930 DAQ, Wawtuhmelon and a Vino Rosso Gaio - all drinks were tasty! We started with the Truffle fries and the Crispy Duck Meatballs- oh my both were great! The flavor in the Duck meatballs was amazing! The sweet chili glaze just hits it out of the park! On to dinner I ordered the Steak Frites - excellent flavor and cooked perfect! Wife ordered the Chicken Picatta - very tasty with a great lemon flavor! Daughter ordered the Pink Vodka - also really flavorful with interesting noodles I had not had before. Thank you for a great experience- we shall be back! Thanks Chef Max!“

“Do not live here if you care about your car. On two separate occasions my car was vandalized and my roommates car was stolen from the off street parking. The landlords have done nothing to improve the security.“

“Dined here last night before PPAC, for that reason we made an early dinner reservation. I confirmed when calling they had valet parking. We arrived to find no valet attendant. After some back and forth with hostess and manager my husband was finally able to come inside for dinner, nearly 30 mins wasted. Our server AJ provided exemplarry service; she was personable and knew the menu like the back of her hand. We appreciated her service, and our dinners were all very good. As we departed we confirmed with the tardy valet attendant if we could leave the car and pick up after the show as we do with neighboring establishments and he said no because they would be closed by the time the show was over; this couldn’t have been further from the truth. The valet was rude, late, and it’s terribly unfortunate that the valet ruined what could have been a great dinner with friends.“

“We tried Needle & Thread during Providence Restaurant Week and it was fabulous. Drinks were amazing and the short ribs were so delicious. The interior is gorgeous and adds to the speakeasy vibe. We will definitely visit again!“

“First time as was in town from Newport to see Little Jagged Pill at PPAC. Bartender (Tim?) was excellent friendly, knowledgeable on menu and made great handcrafted drinks. Manager (she moved here from NYC) was also excellent. I ordered the pork loin special, one of my friends ordered to porchetta over grits (I was a bit jealous as it was amazing. Overall a great experience.“

“Classic dark interior low lighting cocktail lounge. Our party of four enjoyed a mix of cocktails and a couple of beers at reasonable prices. Only a brief visit on this occasion as it was the one for the road as they say but would definitely return when I have more time.“

“Location/decor/ambiance: the owners have tried to turn the spacious brick and beam interior of a former factory building into a ghetto-ish inner cityscape skateboard park using graffiti-style airbrush graphics, little skateboards that serve as bar chair seat backs, concrete floors painted with Providence manhole covers, etc. Visually, the effect is mixed. I “get” what the owners are trying for, but it isn’t for me an “attractive” dining decor. It looks much more like a dance club for young twenty-somethings. I quickly adjusted to the inner-city grunge decor, but what we couldn’t adjust to was the VERY loud rap/hip-hop music blaring out of some very robust speakers non-stop. Talking was difficult. Yes, I’m an older person, but I don’t begrudge anyone their musical sensibilities… provide its not full of “***** and “nigga” and roaring out at at least 90 decibels. Whatever they’re trying to be, they need to remember that they are l (at 10 am) a restaurant, not a dance club. Food & service: unexpectedly, given the above criticism, the food was outstanding, I mean really good. Caught us off guard. Just beautifully imagined and realized. Would I return? Probably not. Even the great food cant quite overcome the soundscape. Interesting place, though“

“Amazing best service and lounge“

“You got the best fish and chips! Staff was super nice! I tried the oysters and they were amazing also!“

“The food is great. Good size portions.Drinks are awesome. Deserts to die for. Friendly staff. Highly recommend this place. Call ahead. Very busy.“

“Been coming here since their initial location in Greenville. Went to their new location and loved it. Definitely smaller, but loved the intimate setting. Especially when guests embrace the concept. It’s like you’re all experiencing dining together prompting conversation with strangers gathering for the common love of food. Love everything about this new place. Oh and the food is still phenomenal.“

“For the Rhode Island College Black Alumni Network's Annual Grad Event Party, we selected Distinguish Catering and the food was delicious!!! We are so grateful for their hard work to deliver exquisite appetizers. Our guests enjoyed the food, and the beef empanadas were a hit! Shout out to Jessica and her team for their professionalism, support, and guidance to help us select top tier appetizers that absolutely pleased our guests and accomodated those with specific food allergies (i.e. gluten-free, vegan)“

“What do I recommend….Absolutely everything ! This is the Italian restaurant experience everyone should have. You’re treated like family. The food is absolutely delicious. Every dish that came to our table looked and tasted like the main ingredient is love. If you are fortunate enough to go when Mama’s stuffed squash flowers are on the specials menu, you better try them. Isabella our waitress was absolutely amazing. This place made me and my family feel like we were regulars. It’s that place. Just go. You’re gonna love it !! 💯❤️“

“Was in town for a weekend on leisure and loved everything about this place. Ambience, music, the pear and honey margarita was a highlight. Special shoutout to Bianca, who handled the Saturday rush seamlessly and has an infectious personality. You could tell she brings the best out of her clientele and colleagues.“

“I absolutely love going to Joros. It’s the only Liberian restaurant I’ll eat from in all of RI, the food, service and family feel cannot be beaten over here. Don’t hesitate or overthink, the food is delicious and the owner will become like a brother to you. If you’re looking for quality authentic Liberian food, this is the spot“

“Had an incredible meal there last night! The buffalo chicken egg rolls, the Rogue Melt, and the lobster Mac & cheese. All amazing! I’m more of a vodka drinker but the beer selection was incredible and our waiter helped me pick the perfect wheat beer! 100% I’d go back (when in town). A definite 2 thumbs up!“

“Great place and wonderful food good service“

“Best Authentic Mexican restaurant in Rochester. The food is fresh, hot and servings are plentiful! Clean, bright beautifully decorated… I had to ask for special dietary requests and was given the best service, thank you Adrianna;) 10 stars from us“

“Great food!!! …you do need to invest in real Martini glasses!!!“

“Love the place. Always a new taco to try. Serious taco lovers won't be disappointed.“

“Wow! I don’t often write reviews but felt I had to after my experience sitting at the bar. Ari provided some of the best service I have ever had. She was incredibly warm, accommodating, attentive and overall truly made my experience. It’s not so common to receive that nice of service these days and I just wanted to give her a shoutout :) That woman deserves a raise!“
