Enjoyed experiencing a local bar near the providence airport. It was a pleasant surprise to find a popular Sunday night spot. I enjoyed the atmosphere, the food and our 2 servers. We split a couple of flatbread pizzas and a Caesar salad. The Pear and Prosciutto Pizza and Caprese Pizza were fantastic with olive oil used as the dressing. I would recommend dropping in if you are in the area read more

Wonderful and attentive wait staff. Food was pricey and disappointed. Caesar salad. Took forever and chicken was sawdust - sent it back. Would not go back. read more

Ate here on our first night on the east coast for our trip! I had the bolognese and the noodles were excellent and tasted chewy and homemade. We also had the fresh oysters. I ordered a whiskey sour and it was perfect. Cute vibe and service was excellent- we actually ate here twice while we were here! read more

We went there Sunday night for my birthday. 6:30 reservation but table didn't free up until almost 7 pm. Manager was terrific and got us all a drink while waiting. Appetizers were very good! Had the nachos, brussel sprouts and buffalo dip. Food arrived and unfortunately one of the orders was made with cheese and we requested no cheese. Put a bit of a damper while we all waited for his meal to come out again. Manager again came out after we finished and gave us some complimentary desserts that were terrific! Overall the food was great and the Manager was very helpful and understanding....Not sure if we will go back again but a nice place for drinks! Maybe it was a bit much with a party of seven! read more

Expect to be here for a long time. This is the second time I've been here and boy do you need to block off your afternoon to eat here! First time we nabbed the last table available when it was super busy. This time, walked in and no one was there-maybe 4 other tables. This past Friday afternoon: The service was intermittent at best. The appetizer took 25 minutes to arrive and it wasn't even a cooked app. The burger I ordered (also took another 30+ mins) medium rare was rare/raw (literally cold, falling apart because it wasn't cooked.) I wasn't going to say anything but my husband insisted I did. They took it away and cooked another one. My husband had his meal already and was waiting for me to get my cooked burger, thinking since it was a screw up it would be bumped up and take maybe five minutes. Nope! 25 minutes later it finally came out (well done.) I asked for a to go container for him and I without taking a bite, got our bill and left. Luckily, the burger was comped but I'm swearing off this place for good. I'm not exaggerating the time waits. It was so ridiculous that I jokingly started a stopwatch after they took my burger away, saying "I don't want to be here for another 20 minutes." I could understand if it were busy, but it wasn't. Thumbs down. This place feels like a neighborhood bar with food don't waste your time or money. read more

Horrible service, terrible food, overpriced, weak drinks. Don't bother with this place. you'll be disappointed.

Food is good, ambiance--pleasant--service good. WAY TOO EXPENSIVE. Some drinks, appetizers, oysters--with tip--almost $175! Seriously--thank Brandon--but how often can the average couple visit a place like this?? Suggest early dinner menu--"Appy Hour" to encourage repeat business. read more

I was on the prowl for a delicious cocktail after enjoying an afternoon of retail therapy. Yelp recommended Cork and Rye and I'm glad it did. I was able to snag the last seat at the bar. I was pleasantly helped by Andrew, whom I've had the pleasure of dining with at a different restaurant. I tried two of their signature cocktails, one refreshing the other on the exotic side- never thought to put cardamom in a cocktail. Both were delicious. I also happened to visit during half price oysters on the half shell #score. I tried their blacked ahi tuna appetizer which filled me right up! Super fresh. Very cute, small place I'd love to come back to try some tasty sounding entrees. read more

Went here for dinner on 10/24/21 because it had gluten free options and was across the street from the hotel that we were staying at. My husband and I split the buffalo chicken dip ($13.50) and subbed vegetables for bread because I have Celiac. Super cool that they were able to get me roasted potatoes as the fries aren't gluten free for my $25.50 steak frites. My husband had the regular fries with his steak frites as he doesn't have Celiac disease. It's a bit pricey for a mostly empty plate. Maybe it's just a visual thing, but seeing 1/3 of the plate totally empty and the other 1/3 being swiped with an artistic swipe of cauliflower puree just feels like a rip off. More potatoes and cauliflower would be nice. read more

First time here since it became Cork and Rye. We stopped in for lunch as we had heard good things. I LOVED my Gemelli pasta and grilled spicy sausage ($19.00) with wild mushrooms, garlic, caramelized onion, spinach and light truffle cream . The flavors all blended together and it was delicious! I definitely recommend that dish! My friend had the Cobb Salad ($15.50) and said it was fresh and delicious. It looked wonderful. She even took half of it to go. The staff was friendly and constantly checked back to see if we needed refills on anything. I would definitely come back again. However, when you first walk in, you smell a strong cleaning smell. Not pleasant and they had been open at least 30 mins. Glad they clean but it ruins the experience until your nose adjusts to it. That also happened at the last owners. I hope they clean earlier? I could go later, but my schedule doesn't really allow for that. All in all I recommend it . While I am not close enough to go for dinner, lunch is definitely an option. read more

A small, nice spot that's more upscale than the other restaurants surrounding the mall. They have a raw bar! We sat at the center bar, had great service, and shared a flatbread pizza that was pretty unbelievably tasty! I'll go back again. read more

We stumbled upon Cork and Rye for lunch on a Saturday around noon and it happened to be the beginning on the Oyster Happy Hour, which lasts from 12 to 3. When we arrived the restaurant was almost empty but it quickly changed. Our server was very friendly and accommodating, we placed an order for a dozen oysters ($1.50 each during happy hour), buffalo lemon pepper wings, truffle fries and a fig & prosciutto grilled pizza. The food was generally good but the wings were inconsistently flavored, (some were salty and some didnt have enough) and the pizza was missing some balance as it was a bit too sweet for me. By the time we left, there was a line out the door and the place was very lively. I would give the food 3 stars, the service 5 stars and ambience 4 stars. read more

This place was top notch and on point with everything. The bartenders and servers were attentive without being excessive. It was busy, but they made you feel like they were paying attention to every need. They started outside seating which is a definite plus on beautiful New England days. There was also a raw bar. The food was fresh, well balanced and flavorful! I would highly recommend! read more

Great menu, exceptionally attentive service, clean restroom. Ordered a variety of appetizers and was very happy with all of them.

Visited a multitude of times and usually enjoyed myself. Food is good. Service always decent. Atmosphere is fine. It's a casual pub spot, great for meeting up with friends for some drinks, snacks, even a meal. I will say, however, that my last experience was rather dreadful. The wait time was insane. So bad in fact, that we ended up leaving be before anything had been served. Needless to say I haven't been back since. Service that day was certainly subpar and that for me is a big part of the experience. Not writing them off altogether, but not rushing back. read more

Drinks and service were great, food not too good, disappointing. Messy sandwiches and premade burger patty, no need to repeat

Very good drinks; very good food. The staff was super accommodating when our large group came in. The crispy fried Brussel sprouts were delicious to start and then the Bacon + Brie burger was everything I wanted it to be. read more

Great food as always my favorite is the sirloin sandwich. Small inside but comforting, bartender went above and beyond! Will definitely be coming back again and again read more

We came to Cork and Rye in hopes of finding delicious and interesting food, excited to eat after reading their menu. However, our food was pretty average, and didn't meet our expectations. We got the Chimi lime calamar which was good, a Lemony chicken piccata which was okay, and clams for happy hour which were small and nothing special. Our friends ordered a classic burger which took surprisingly long to come out, considering that the space was very empty. The waitress was also somewhat hostile and passive aggressive, which rubbed us the wrong way and ultimately made us uncomfortable. read more

Cork and Rye, located at the Warwick Mall and just across the street from the NYLO hotel, is a local watering hole that's a perfect place for a casual meal or a few adult beverages whether you're a lifelong Warwick resident or just passing through on your way to somewhere else. The ambiance reminds me of a neighborhood pub in the UK -- with a long wooden bar and high top tables offering a warm and casual ambiance. The menu includes a variety of pub and tavern staples - fried calamari, chicken wings, nachos, pizzas, burgers, and sandwiches - as well as a small selection of lighter salads and a good selection of more substantive entrees that can accommodate most dietary restrictions and preferences. The beer and wine selections are comprehensive without being overwhelming, with a dozen or so regionally produced microbrews and a good variety of wines. It's definitely not a sports bar, but the restaurant has an energetic atmosphere, a broad selection of beers, wines and cocktails, and handful of TVs that are in your line of sight no matter where you're seated, all of which make watching even a routine sporting event on an otherwise uneventful weeknight enjoyable but not the focus of your meal. I sat at the bar and watched the Heat vs. Celtics while enjoying a few Choco Tuesday stouts and ordered the Cuban Sandwich ($17), comprised of tender roasted pork shoulder, country ham, red onion, pickles, and honey mustard served on ciabatta bread with a side of french fries. The beer was very tasty and the sandwich was tasty and filling. (And, for the record, the Heat won. Let's go Heat!) Pro Tip: Given the tasty cuisine, reasonable prices, and intimate size of the restaurant, Cork and Rye fills up quickly for dinner. Be sure to book your table ahead of time on OpenTable.com. read more

I want to start this review by saying that I knew nothing about this place prior to visiting. I took my sister and her boyfriend out to dinner for her birthday and she had been wanting to try this location. We arrived relatively early around 4:45 PM on a Wednesday evening and the place was packed. I would strongly recommend that you make a reservations in advance. The gentleman at the entrance was very kind and let us know it would take roughly 30 minutes. I will say that this place has a very relaxed atmosphere where people are sitting and enjoying beverages, food and conversation. The wait ended up taking roughly an hour but we spent the time walking around the mall waiting for the text to return. The staff were very apologetic for the wait and seated us quickly and took our drink order. We ordered two appetizers. We ordered mozzarella sticks, which were absolutely delicious and had a very fresh just-made taste to them. We also ordered a special appetizer. It was freshly made pretzel bites with a homemade beer cheese. The pretzel bites literally melted in your mouth like a hot Krispy Kreme doughnut and the beer cheese should win awards (maybe it has?) Now let's move on to the amazing dinner. I can only provide a review for what I ate and I ordered the crispy onion burger. This was possibly the best burger I have ever had. The buns were so fresh they may have just finished baking when they put a delicious, juicy medium cooked beef patty in between them. The burger was topped with a fantastic homemade honey mustard sauce and crispy onion straws. In addition, they have a rosemary french fry, which are crispy and delicious, and they provide you with a very large serving. Book a reservation in advance so you don't have to wait and definitely give this place a try, you will not be disappointed. Dinner for three without alcoholic beverages, two appetizers, and three entrées was $92 plus a $20 tip read more

Meh. The steak and frites was covered in a disgusting green glop of something verde. Why?? Why do we continue to adulterate what should be perfectly Fine meat with sauces and other slop? The shrimp in the petite platter were huge and rubbery not tender at all. The spicy margarita was lame. I've had better at the chain BJs. Service was lovely though. read more

Yelp recently had a listing on RI's best burgers, but I feel they left some establishments out and one of them being Cork and Rye. Situated at the far end of the Warwick Mall parking lot across from the NYLO hotel, the hamburgers are so far out of this world that we might need Mr. Musk to help rescue a few more to bring back to earth. Perfectly prepared and they weren't afraid to ask me how I'd like it cooked. If one is using premium beef why would anyone cook it so much that RIDOT would consider using it to patch up the I95 bridge? Juicy? Yes. Can one taste the beef? Yes. Might I consider Cork and Rye a habit? Well Yes...if the acoustics were better and the decibel level of chit chat could be decreased. But then again, sometimes it's just nice to be noisy where you can just let it out and laugh between bites of your burger. Go. read more

My Dad was visiting from out of town and I was looking for a good late lunch/early dinner spot with good food and service. This place delivered. I didn't realize the pulled pork nachos appetizer would be a meal all by itself even sharing it. I'm not big into nachos but these were by far the best nachos I've ever had. I also ordered short rib truffle mac (and cheese) (this was my main reason for wanting to try the place). I was full by the time I got this but I tried a few bites. It was outstanding. I was shocked at how good it was. I brought the majority of it home. My Dad ordered 4 large oysters. He was very pleased with them. I'm not a fan of oysters personally but when I saw this on their menu I knew he'd appreciate it. He also ordered herb roasted chicken. It was a really good fish. The flavors of the chicken, sweet potatoes, bacon brussel sprouts and sauce all blended very well. Holland was our waitress and she was extremely nice. We couldn't have asked for better service. She even laughed at my Dad's terrible dad jokes. I highly recommend this spot to anyone wanting an enjoyable lunch or dinner. read more

The atmosphere and vibe is great here. We got the Paloma to drink we lived it. My Cuban sandwich was very good, others I've had in the past have been overwhelmingly salty. This one has flavors that were balanced perfectly. My friend got the Buffalo chicken dip she thought it was great loved the pitas for dipping. Had to knock a star off for the pizza it wasn't very good. read more

It has been over a year since I have been to Cork and Rye because my jobs haven't landed us in this area for a while. I must say that they actually have gotten better since I was there last. The raw bar selections are limited but extremely fresh. The staff is wonderful, attentive and very concerned with your food experience. The Cesar salad with anchovies is a must try. I discovered this restaurant 2 years ago while working in Providence for 6 months and visited them as a celebration every Friday afternoon once the job was completed. There were dishes we did not like at times and the owner was more than concerned with our comments. I really think that all the comments from their customers over the years have made this a truly must visit when in Providence. BTW, the beer and alcohol selection is truly mind blowing. Whiskey flights and local beer. Well done Cork and Rye read more

Tasty place with excellent cocktails and very good food. Came here on a Friday night and it was full, but socially distanced. They had plexiglass partitions between the tables and at the bar, so you felt like you had your own private booth (even though the plexiglass is clear). Staff wore masks and gloves but still exuded friendliness. We started with jumbo shrimp cocktail....very good. I had a caesar salad with shrimp while my better half had a fish sandwich. We switched halfway through and both were great. My rye old fashioned was very well made. For dessert, they had house-made ice cream sandwiches. We got chocolate chip cookies with salted caramel ice cream. Delicious! Really enjoyed our visit here. Great service, terrific food...it's great. read more

This is a place I like to come back to. The service is great, food is always good, and it's usually busy. The outside seating area is a nice touch with several tables and umbrellas that are lighting for evenings. The outside dining area is surrounded by huge heavy solid cement barriers; but decorated with beautiful flowers and planter barrels. We sat outside and I was grateful for the barriers in place because someone backed into them where we were sitting. The barrier didn't budge. The buffalo chicken dip with pita chips was amazing, just enough heat, not overpowering. The fish and chips were fresh, as was the burger and fries. The fries are house-made, but a little on the dark side and too salty. We did mention this and was told our comment would make it to the chef. read more

We just love this restaurant! It has become our go-to for lunch, date night, or to satisfy a craving for a good meal. I can't stop thinking about the delicious, flavored to perfection, shaved asparagus salad that I enjoyed earlier this week.

Cork and Rye - Shaved asparagus salad - Gastropubs Near Me - Warwick, Rhode Island

This restaurant is in the Warwick Mall Plaza area, but set away about 200 yards from the mall. It has a nice bar and plenty of choices. We ordered two cocktails, a Greek salad, and a Chicken Parmesan sandwich. I ordered the Dead Horse off of the Signature Craft Cocktails Menu. I would give the drink a 3 out of 5. For $11 it was not comparable to something you would get for the same price in Providence or other places who serve craft cocktails. The Greek salad was really good and loaded up with lots of great ingredients, I would give it a 5/5. The Chicken Parm Sandwich was okay, I would give it a 3 out of 5. read more
