The Malted Barley has become a favorite lunch spot for our extended family to partake of when we are in town once a year or so to visit part of the family who lives in South Kingstown. The sandwiches are unique and delicious and are our go-to stop when visiting Waverly, along with the bookstore just around the corner.

The Malted Barley is a cozy fun place with a unique menu and large variety of craft beer.Went with three friends on a Sunday midafternoon for beer flights and stuffed pretzels (though I had a glass of wine). The restrooms are unisex with a lot of carved graffiti on the walls. Some of the comments were a bit racy but most were amusing.We ordered our drinks and a jalapeño cheddar stuffed pretzel and a Thanksgiving pretzel. The second one was filled with stuffing and turkey, cranberry sauce and gravy on the side for dipping. Both pretzels were delicious and had a nice crispy crunch (almost over cooked but still good). We'll be back and try their other stuffed pretzels, sandwiches and salads.

This place is a local gem. Good vibes, great food and drinks, and convenient location. Service was quick and super friendly. I love that they offer all beers in a 4oz serving as I usually never finish a full beer - just enough to get a taste! And the pretzels are next level. Highly recommend and will be sure to stop in whenever I'm in town!

Cute little bar with excellent selection of beer and pretzels. Very customizable options. Did take out and it was delicious

Awesome place! I would highly recommend The Malted Barley. We are gluten free and they have tons of options for us! We got a tasting of the ciders and some cocktails as well as a gluten free pretzel! The cocktails were okay but it’s more of a beer place anyway.Gluten free pretzel was delicious! Not the same as a regular pretzel obviously but it was still excellent and our server was delightful. I didn’t catch her name but she had such a cute snake tattoo on her finger.All in all I can’t wait to come back to try what they have on draft next and get more gluten free goodness ?

We had a keg of pumpkin beer and it was delicious. We have been there so many times and never sat downstairs but it is beautiful with the patio and shuffleboard.

Nice beer selection ! The pretzels are great and they offer breakfast sandwiches all day. Family friendly but I wouldn't bring kids here after 6pm since it gets busy with young adults.

I’ve been to the providence location many times and had such a good experience. This location was so disappointing.Our server only had one table (which was us) and was standing and talking doing nothing the whole time. She never asked us for refills or if we wanted more drinks and only checked on us once before handing us off to another server who also didn’t come to check on us. We had empty glasses for the majority of the meal. Between the time we asked for the check and when we got cashed out we were waiting for over 20 minutes. Spending a total of 2 hours here with one round of waters, a beer flight and food for everyone.On the bright side the food was really good. Everything was super flavorful.But that didn’t take away from us being ignored the whole time we were there.

It's always an amazing experience to head downtown and visit the Barely. The food and drinks are exceptional and the atmosphere is always fun!

Everything pretzel! They bake them fresh so it's not fast food. But it's super delicious!!!
I don't ever do these things but here I go, Malted Barley went above and beyond for me and my wedding. Stephanie was on top of all and any concerns I had prior to day of. To the point where she even let me store decorations ahead of time for the event. Then, Malted Barley even took down my decorators down day of, and stored them for me safely for next day pick up at my leisure.The food was amazing and served all of my guests with a few leftovers my bridal party enjoyed that night. But also, the room was perfect, with the right atmosphere and music volume, we danced until midnight!!I cannot recommend this venue enough. I had the pleasure of working with Stephanie and Kevin, and if they happen to be working your event too, then get ready for the most PERFECT function!

My best friend and I went for lunch and drinks today. Our bartender Kevin was amazing. He is personable, funny and very helpful. He is definitely one of the most attentive bartenders that The Malted Barley has. The pretzel sandwiches were awesome as usual, and the variety of beers was incredible! Plenty of sour choices which are my fave! I highly recommend stopping in for a drink and a pretzel! I hope if you stop in that you are lucky enough to get Kevin as your bartender! He is the best!
Cassie Beach
Always amazing! The bartenders are so great and welcoming. The drinks are on point and the bacon cheddar pretzel is the bees knees!
Matt Hammett
Very nice servers, great tasting sandwiches, very messy to eat though. Soda was flat, didn't replace it. Great looking place and we would love to go again. Plan on visiting the Florida location soon.

If you want beer, this is your spot. If you are looking for lunch, the menu is limited to anything with pretzels. As long as you're okay with that, you will like the place. The restaurant atmosphere is pleasing, and the service was good.
