    Fishbowls (4 person drinks)
    Rebecca B.

    Waitress was great. She was pleasant, upbeat and attentive. It wasn't crowded so it was a more relaxed environment this time. The drinks were made perfectly. If you plan on a few drinks, definitely try a fishbowl because mannnn were they awesome! This month's egg roll is Mac and cheese and it didn't disappoint. I do wish it was cheesier, but the cheese dipping sauce helped. Tater tots with cheese and bacon - yesssss... they were perfectly crispy! General tso's sliders were put together very nicely. The flavors blended very well.

    My favorite place for drinks and group hangouts EVER! Earlier this year, we had a large crew with us for my birthday. The staff were super friendly and checked in a lot throughout the night. There were plenty of seats outside (under the tent and by the parking lot) and lots of cozy options inside. Camp Nowhere has a super lowkey vibe, which is perfect for casual hangs and drinks with friends. The highlight for me? Hands down the drinks - the fish bowls, to be exact. You can share one, but why not take on the challenge to chug one in one sitting? They come ice cold, with a duck and plenty of smoke that makes it a total crowd pleaser. Should you decide to pull a Hillary, just be careful and make sure you have a DD that night... ;) Everything on the menu is really affordable, and I always go for the Bug Juice or MacIntosh Apple drinks (for the less crazy nights). The bites are awesome too, especially if you're a big snacker after a few drinks and love waffle fries, sliders and chicken strips like me. Overall, a super fun atmosphere and great service. It's easy to get carried away, so drink responsibly!

    What's not to love about camp? Great slider selection, amazing drink selection from their fishbowls to mixed drinks. Whether you're a student at RIC, Bryant or just want a fun experience camp is here for you. Staff is always friendly, great knowledge of menu and drinks. The inside feels comfy and cozy. Went with some pulled pork and short rib sliders would eat these all the time if I could. Will always look forward to going back to camp

    Jenga!

    Fun spot in the wilderness of North Providence! There's a huge covered patio full of picnic tables. Inside is a cozy and rustic themed bar area. We sat outside and played Jenga while waiting for our food. The drinks are cheap and STRONG! I had the Purple Drank with grape vodka. I asked for soda water instead of Sprite and it was refreshing without being too sweet. The sliders were small but delicious and cheap! We had the eggplant parm and chicken parm as well as sweet potato fries. Everything was really good! The sliders are definitely small so order multiple. I want to go back and try more snacks and drinks. Staff was nice and attentive.

    I only came here for drinks, so I can't speak to the food BUT I was frankly disappointed by my experience. The fish bowl drink was wayyy too $$$ for how strong it ended up being. I would've rather gone with their smaller drinks and gotten more bang for my buck. The tables and bathrooms were frankly pretty dirty although I understand that we went toward the tail end of the night. Regardless, the staff was super attentive and nice and the atmosphere was lively. Considering coming back here to try their food!

    Met a group of friends here. Food was very inexpensive, and good. Limited selection s of sliders that were very tasty. Fried chicken tenders and inventive egg rolls. I believe to slider were under 5 dollars. Very well stuffed and flavorful. I ordered a fishbowl tiki drink and shared with many. It was huge and really tasty. Definitely going back. Casual dive with great pub food.

    Mozzarella sticks - really good!

    Fun place for cheap bites and drinks, we've been coming here off and on for several years. I like the rustic, camp style wood decor and the service here is always friendly. Visited most recently on the day after the blizzard of 2026 and it was super quiet (unusual - it's usually pretty busy here). Our server was great - she gave us just the right amount of attention and made sure our glasses stayed full. We got sliders and mozzarella sticks, which were all served hot and all were great! It was my first time trying their buffalo chicken sliders and I'd definitely order them again. Lots of fruity drinks on the menu, but they are kind of weak. Maybe it would be better to order a double? The number of beers on tap is great and there is a really good variety. They also have a house red and white wine. We finished the night with fried oreos, which are sooooo delicious! Everything here is cooked to order and all of our food arrived at the table nice and hot. Not sure why we don't visit Camp Nowhere more often - it's great!

    This place is so fun! It's super affordable. I honestly don't know how they stay in business--/their food and drinks are so good and so cheap. The ambiance is unlike any place around. It certainly has the log cabin vibe but it's edgy. The servers give on a laid back vibe, but are wonderful and very attentive. It's such a cool spot to hang out at whether on a week night or weekend. I'm so glad i found out about this place.

    Quick and accurate service. The food is inexpensive and has flavor. There are screens with movies and sports games. The outside has outdoor patio and a game area.

    Boutique is exactly the word I'd use to describe Marcelino's. There are plenty of cocktail bars in…read moreProvidence, but Marcelino's feels genuinely different from the usual lineup. From the moment you walk in, the dim lighting, decor, music, and overall atmosphere give it this wonderfully intimate, almost turn-of-the-century speakeasy feel. It's classy without feeling stuffy, and it's the kind of place where you can actually sit across from someone and have a good conversation without feeling like you're competing with the entire room. Our bartender was extremely well versed in both the drink and food menus and did a great job explaining the different flavors and ingredients. That makes a big difference at a place like this because the cocktail menu isn't just a list of variations on the same five drinks. There are some genuinely imaginative combinations here, and the cocktails we tried were creative, balanced, and delicious. You can tell there is a lot of thought that goes into what comes out of the bar. The music fits the room perfectly, too. It adds to the atmosphere without overpowering it, which is important because Marcelino's is a place where the setting is really part of the experience. The combination of the low lighting, the intimate seating, the music, and the attention to detail makes this a fantastic place for a date night or simply for sitting down with someone and actually talking over a couple of very good cocktails. This is a classy establishment, so don't walk in expecting bargain-bar prices. You're going to spend a little more here, but I think that's completely reasonable given what they're creating. You're paying for more than a drink in a glass. You're getting the atmosphere, the presentation, the creativity behind the cocktails, and the experience of being somewhere that feels genuinely unique. Providence has a lot of good places to drink, but Marcelino's is one of the ones that feels like an experience rather than just another stop for a cocktail. If you're looking for something intimate, sophisticated, a little mysterious, and very different from the standard bar scene, I can't recommend this place enough. Five stars from me, and I'll absolutely be back.

    The ambience is EVERYTHING here. I've been a few times, most recently after seeing the newest…read moreMandalorian movie in the IMAX theater. Walking in here after that movie felt like walking right back into the Star Wars universe. The music, the lighting, the layout, the vibes, everything is perfection. The service is pleasant & attentive. The drinks can sometimes be a hit, sometimes a miss. They're always expensive, though. That's one reliable factor. Most recently, I tried the "oyster shell martini" that featured gin, dry vermouth, riesling, oyster acid, & lemon oils. I loooove a savory, weird drink. I saw it & knew I needed to try it. Unfortunately, it was seriously imbalanced. It was wine heavy, with an extremely poisonous aftertaste that lingered forever & ever & ever. I would never order this again. I'm sure I'll be back in the future. Again, the ambience is unbeatable. It's a great place to take a date or a group of Star Wars lovers.

    Somehow, despite having lived here for years and spending plenty of time around downtown…read moreProvidence, I had never been to The Eddy. I'm honestly not sure how I missed it, because this is exactly the kind of place I like finding. It is the true definition of a small cocktail bar. The space is tiny, intimate, and has a very specific atmosphere, so if you're looking for a big place with plenty of tables, this probably isn't it. If you're looking for a great cocktail in a cozy little bar, however, you're in the right place. The cocktail menu is excellent. There are a lot of creative options that go well beyond the standard collection of Old Fashioneds, Margaritas, and Martinis you'll find at most bars. The drinks are imaginative without becoming gimmicky, and the combinations we tried were really well balanced and interesting. You can tell there is some serious thought behind the cocktail program, and it makes ordering something new a lot of fun. Our waitress was fantastic as well. My wife ordered a drink that apparently isn't something every bartender is familiar with, so our waitress went back to the bartender to ask about it. The bartender immediately knew exactly what she was talking about, which was a nice little reminder that these people actually know their drinks. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience easy without hovering over us. The music deserves a mention, too. It was fantastic and fit the atmosphere perfectly. The Eddy has that comfortable, slightly dark cocktail-bar feeling where you can sit down, have a drink, listen to good music, and actually enjoy being there rather than feeling like you're sitting in a loud restaurant waiting for someone to bring you your check. My only real warning is that this place is genuinely small. That is part of its charm, but it also means getting in and finding a seat can be difficult at times, particularly when it's busy. You probably shouldn't show up with a large group expecting to immediately find a table. For two people looking for a couple of really good cocktails, though, it's pretty much ideal. The prices are also quite reasonable for the quality of the drinks. You're obviously paying cocktail-bar prices rather than dive-bar prices, but I didn't feel like we were being taken advantage of. Considering the creativity and quality of what we were drinking, I thought the prices were perfectly fair. I'm actually a little annoyed that I went this long without knowing The Eddy existed. Providence has so many cocktail bars that you can spend years here and still keep discovering places you've somehow walked past a hundred times. The Eddy is definitely going on the list of places we need to come back to, and we will 100% be back.

I've seen on social media that people complained about the new location having mainly street parking - we both found parking easily on the street - quit yer b*tchin' people lol. Besides I believe they have a lot behind the restaurant that we didn't have to use but it's there if needed. We were the only ones there when we first walked in but more patrons came in as the night went on. Made our way to the bar and orders were flowing - one warning if you're sitting at the bar, it is an open kitchen so there will be alot of aromas flowing through and may get on your clothes but really it'll just remind you of how good the food was. Also, the barstools are not the most comfy - metal stools with no backing so after 2.5 hours, we were feeling a bit achy. We ordered way more than we should've but everything just looked so good! We got the croquettes (our absolute fave), the cauliflower, the pizza du jour (I think it had spinach, pepperoni, ricotta and garlic) and for entrees we got the fish tacos and the Orecchiette. Not one complaint - everything was divine. Croquettes were melty, smoky little nuggets of heaven and our favorites bites of the night. The pizza had a great balance of flavors and the crust was thin and crispy. We were so full but had a few bites of the fish tacos and pasta - the fish was cooked to perfection and the aioli it came with topped it perfectly. Pasta was different - had a scallion cream sauce that was a nice change up from your typical Alfredo. Don't sleep on this place - the street is busy being on a main road but so well worth the visit, I didn't catch our bartender's name but he and a few other servers were super personable and friendly - gave us just enough time in between meals and personal space to not hover. Absolutely will return!
