45 Best Pubs near Pawtucket

“If you’ve never been here, you don’t know what you’re missing! This place will remind you of your grandparent’s home. Nostalgic and so comfortable.

The owner Drew was the man! He was so nice to my work colleagues, let us bring 3 boxes of pizza in to eat and was hilarious.

The whole bar is filled with old collectible items and things you’ll find out a pawn shop. Dartboard and pool table is upstairs.

And the prices!! 4 of us got 2 beers and 2 hard alcoholic drinks - and we were charged only $14.

Can’t wait to be back!“

“Went there on a Sunday during their live Marima band 3-6pm and DJ dance party 6pm on. Atmosphere made the experience exceptional. Food and service was satisfactory enough. I will go back for the Sunday music experience and buy drinks.

Kid-friendliness: I went there with my sons, and there were other children during Full Bar and live music. I appreciate that“

“Stopped by at this cozy place on my way to Boston. The bartenders were very friendly, so I had one of their mules

I ordered their pulled pork combo with fries coleslaw and broccoli, and it was tasty. Nice coleslaw that wasn't heavy with the mayo. Definitely check this spot out if you're in the area for some good bar food.“

“Stopped in for some food and drinks after seeing one of our favorite bartenders post this place on her Facebook and was pleasantly surprised! Me and the wife love us some latin food! We sat at the bar with Phillippa like always wherever shes at and had some of her delicious margaritas. They really are some of the best we ever had! She recommended some dishes and everything was truly amazing! We will definitely be back!“

“I have to say today was one of the best corned beef dinners I've ever had. Perfectly prepared and a great cut provided, please consider this as a frequent special, all 3 of us discussed going back for a second,. keep up the great work!“

“🔥 Hidden Gem Alert! This local scratch kitchen is a game-changer. The food is fresh, flavorful, and clearly crafted by a true chef! Not your typical bar food! Every dish feels personal and made with care. The staff? Super friendly and welcoming. If you’re craving real food with heart, this is the spot. 👨‍🍳👏“

“Good food great atmosphere friendly staff“

“Great bar with good chill vibes, especially the backyard patio. Nice atmosphere for conversation and isn't too loud. Definitely right up my alley. No kitchen, which is fine. It's just meant to be a bar to chill, but plenty of food nearby.“

“love going when Lana is DJing!“

“Never a let down. I make it a point to stop in every time Im in town for work. The food never disappoints. Introduced to my first “stuffy”. I have never had to wait to be seated, food comes out timely and perfect temperature. Im making it a point to try as much as I can on the menu and enjoy my iced tea with simple syrup. Keep the great food coming!“

“This place is awesome. I reached out to Erica for help with a fundraiser I was doing and I was looking for donations. She was extremely generous and did not hesitate to help and donate! This just goes to show what kind of amazing people are running this place. Atmosphere and food are phenomenal as well!“

“Gilligan’s is GREAT! Been my local for a number of years…the owner Amanda has tastefully updated it since buying it, yet kept the great friendly, welcoming feeling. Nice wine list, local crafts & a good place to catch a game! Give it a try“

“I was in town for the NCAA Wrestling Finals. I stopped in with my husband and father-in-law. We loved it! Great food and nice people! We felt very welcomed. Exactly what an Irish pub should be!“

“Hell yeah great place people. Keep it rockin“

“quite frankly ; everything“

“We just moved here from out of town. We came in and sat at the bar, can’t remember which day but I had forgotten to write a review it just crossed my mind as I was thinking of wanting to come in for a delicious fall drink! We had Kristen as our bartender, she was excellent! Very attentive, and so friendly. It’s not to often you get a really good bartender with a good personality and such hospitality. Also DELICIOUS drinks and prompt to get our orders. Food came out timely and was very good. We will be back for sure!! hopefully get lucky enough to get our favorite bartender again! Can’t wait to try the dill pickle burger next 😋“

“Wings were amazing! The beer selection is great and the service was beyond perfect! Will definitely be back!“

“Food & drink we're good, I love it when a restaurant is smart and has a small enough menu that they can branch out into different ideas. The steak gyro was good, tzatziki sauce was bland (needed a hint of mint). Fried cod battered in chips/crisps was perfect.“

“This bar and grill is actually not that big of a place, but when we went for an early dinner on a Saturday evening, there was no wait. The bar took up a lot of space and there were 2 guys tending to the bar and everyone looked like they were having a great time. We were lucky enough to be there when there was live entertainment - a very talented guitar player with a good voice. It was a little bit hard to hear him with all the noise at the bar. But it was still fun that t here was live entertainment. \n\nMy husband ordered the Guinness beef stew and he loved it. We were both curious what "Irish rice" tasted like so he ordered that also. It was pretty good. My husband ended up pouring it into his stew to make the stew more hearty and he liked it better that way.\n\nI was having a bit of a challenge trying to figure out what to order so I just asked our server if I could have the salmon with two sides. And he was more than happy to send in that order. So we both had delicious meals and were well entertained, between the other customers and the guy playing the guitar. \n\nThere is parking in the area and street parking right in front of the restaurant if you're lucky enough to get there before it's all taken.“

“French onion soup is the best I have ever had!“

“PARTIED HARD HERE IN THE 70,S.!! STOPPED IN CHILLED..!! OK BAR...!“

“I'm super critical, been in the industry a million years.... I was in a rush tonight, had a show to get to.... With a big party in progress, Harry was our waiter... he made room for us, was very attentive, and the food was delicious, & came out in time to make our show! Great experience!!!“

“We are always warmly welcomed by the friendly staff and owners. Great service and even better food. Always coming up with new pizzas! Apps and sandwiches are outstanding! All the friends we’ve brought there love it!!“

“My Shawn’s Pub is a fantastic place to gather with friends and make new ones“

“Excellent place for darts“

“The 99 is already one of my go to restaurants. This specific one was one of the first places I went to with the now love of my life. But I just want to thank the friendliest (I believe she was a cook) who worked at this specific location (North Attleboro, MA) who had an accent (that’s all I know about her, I wish I got her name) I had to take my baby into the restroom for a diaper change and while I was in there I discovered that an old baby food pouch exploded in the bottom of the diaper bag and covered all of our diapers. My son was all over the place trying to crawl off the counter where I made him sit so I could clean out the bag and throw out all of the rotten apple covered diapers 😭 and I was a mess until this wonderful lady who appeared to be a cook there walked in and offered to hold him for me and just held him there next to me, entertaining him in the mirror, talking to him until my mother in law walked in to check on us. Just wanted to recognize her kindness and make it known how thoughtful she was. “I’ve been there, I know how jt is” she said and in that moment I felt a bit of relief knowing that as a mom we are not alone.“

“I've been coming here since they opened. some of the best service at the bar. Very friendly bartenders! Plus all the food is amazing!!!“

“I went to meet people who didn't show up. I was there only female customer in a predominantly Spanish speaking club. The female bartender was wonderful and felt instantly comfortable. I could have it taken photos and left but stayed and enjoyed a Corona and conversation.“

“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“

“One of the best hidden gems. High quality food made fresh. Welcoming, friendly atmosphere. Awesome staff! Made friends the first time we walked in. I’m a fussy person when it comes to eating out, their food exceeded my expectations. Great background music and excellent selection of draft beers!“

“This place really shocked me. I was not expecting such great prices and great quality food. We ordered a few appetizers to share thinking they wouldn’t be enough for a meal. We have left overs for about 2 days. Their nachos were piled high, and not skimped out on the toppings. Our server recommended the “hoochie mama “ flavored wings and they were some of the best wings I’ve ever had. Perfectly crispy and sweet/savory. The sangria was amazing and I wish I lived closer to come here every weekend. We spent only $60 on 4 apps, and 2 drinks. Can’t beat it“

“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!“

“I always appreciate great food so when thinking of Indian you only need one choice. This one, great food, great people and honesty great prices. thank you for what you do!“

“Delicious lunch on the patio & excellent service! (thank you Sonya ♥️) We will definitely come back next time we are in the area!“

“Darling Cafe with friendly owners!! Thank you so much for the rum and diet coke!! I appreciate your kindness! Great get-away being near the hospitals and Ronald McDonald House.“

“This has been my husband and I’s go to place for the last few years. Over the last couple of months we have noticed a decline in portions. While we understand that prices are higher for food, you really shouldn’t bump down in quality, just raise the price if you need to. People may not noice a slight uptick in price but definitely notice the portion size. My husband always favors a whole belly clam and scallops plate and last night he was served that combo with only two whole bellies, the rest were just batter pieces and four scallops that were overcooked , it was so disappointing. My surf and turf was downsized from three baked stuffed shrimp down to two and the prime rib was much smaller. While we could have said something, it should have been noticed before it left the kitchen! We are not people to complain and the staff is always great but I guess my point is, we noticed and may think twice before returning and that saddens us.“

“Lou is exceptional , food was great wonderful atmosphere“

“Nicholena's Pizza & Kitchen is very good! Our 1st time here, last minute date night. Soda was flat, otherwise the mixed drinks were pretty good, quick service, clean, food came out quick and right. Very tasty. We will definitely come back!“

“It’s an excellent place, great prices and great staff. However, on a late night it would be nice if I could actually hear the music that was playing. It’s very distracting to only hear the chatter of other people around me. Other than that. Nice place.“

“Great place for having a drink or dinner. Had my daughter’s wedding there and it was FANTASTIC!“
