The food is always outstanding along with the service never dissatisfied will be back weekly make sure you try the clubs and seafood platter along with the combo appetizers read more

Nice sports bar with lots of televisions, lots of beers and a good selection of beer grub. We stuck with beers (locally brewed Narraganset Lager!) and talked for a while without being disturbed by the locals or the noise of the televisions. Looking for beer and sports and grub? DAVE'S! read more

Having lived in Warwick for several years, I have seen this place evolve from the one - room smoky bar to a decent place to casually dine out or grab a drink with friends. I also want to add that I would consider it kid-friendly during lunch and the early dinner hour. Lots of room and ample high chairs. The atmosphere does shift to the bar crowd after 6:30 or so. In short, the food is a good value - decent portions and a reasonable price. I went out last week for lunch with my husband and remarked that they actually put out some tasty food. The blood mary was one of the best I've had - outside of my own kitchen. The server mentioned that they actually make their own bloody mary mix. Spicy, not too salty. . .Yum! Dave, the owner, can usually be seen milling about. The place is always spotless and the service is typically top-notch. A good bet for drinks and a good bite to eat. . . read more

Service was great, clam chowder was awesome, beer selection was huge, did the 5oz sampler of 4 kinds of beer for $6.50, tbone was good, stuffed clams were good, loved the sicillian scallop pasta Great if you're looking for a sports bar, not a bad seat in the house. read more

Disclaimer....I give any restaurant that serves great food, has excellent service and reasonable prices 5 stars. Dave's is that kind of place. Many years ago I started coming here to watch football games. I would perch my son in a high chair with a fabulous (and I think it was 25 cents) grilled cheese sandwich while I had a steak sandwich or lobster sandwich and a beer. I have tried many other menu items and never been disappointed. Great lunch spot, more lively at night. Even when the sandwiches are great, a lot of places drop the ball when it comes to fries....not here. Light, crispy and delicious. I have never left a single one on the plate...well, not true. Sometimes I bring half a sandwich and some fries home for later. Portions,are generous. Highly recommended. read more

We go here couple times a year service and food are always great, except today the fries were over cooked. The steak sandwich was so good I didn't complain. As always are waitress was top notch. Dave if you're reading this please bring back the steak fries, they were so much better. If you haven't been here try it out , everything is good. This is a sports bar with a family vibe. read more

I don't know why my initial review was 3 stars. Dave's has had one of the most consistently delicious steak sandwiches throughout a majority of my life. They did, however, change their breadsticks - which is a bummer. But I've never had a bad meal here. Even if 90% of the time I get the same exact things. Waitstaff is friendly - the games keep the kids busy - and that steak. Mmmmm. That steak. read more

Great place to watch Football. Lots of TVs, and a great selection of craft beers (including 5-7 very respectable IPAs) on tap. The menu offers a good selection of burgers and sandwiches. There are bars on the same road, but this place is the best on the strip outside if the airport. read more

You can never really go wrong with Dave's Bar and Grille. Their menu has plenty of choices and there's something for everyone. If you can't decide which drink to get, get a flight. They have tons of beers on tap and they change seasonally. Don't forget to get some popcorn with your meal. Their hours are great and the kitchen stays open late so it's a great option for any time of day. read more

like coming to daves bar and grill it always fun waitress are nice but last night was bad. 2 of the waitress were complaining about their new check system and kept complaining over and over. One of the waitresses slammed my water down on the table. When my meal came my chicken was too dry. read more

Dave's is your classic hometown sports bar. They have two bar areas, arcade games, and a lot of seating throughout the restaurant. The food is cheap and pretty good. They have free popcorn and drinks are cheap too. The restaurant is open late, even on weekdays, which makes it perfect for late night eats or if you have to stay out until midnight for a birthday. While I wouldn't say that its perfect, Dave's continues to do what they do best -- cheap food, cold beer -- and that's why I keep coming back. read more

Their food was great and so was customer service. We ordered to go but ate a shrimp appetizer while waiting. Each shrimp is 2.99 but well worth it. The shrimp were HUGE, very fresh and meaty. My husband and I had 2 each and that was a good start to the Fish, Shrimp and Scallop Platter we had for dinner. The platter was also huge, very fresh and priced very fairly. We returned the next evening and ordered the same. Initially we were concerned about how service would be because walking in gives a small hometown bar and grille feeling, but the wait staff on both visits were very nice. Highly recommend, the food, prices and service was great. read more

The owner came to the table and he was completely rude and demeaning. we brought in an outside bottle of water that we asked the staff if it was OK first. well the owner saw it and he didn't like it at all. he immediately began to raise his voice. and instead of expressing casually why he wanted us to get rid of it, he berated my friend in front of the whole party. we said we had asked in advance but we understood and we were disposing it immediately. She was rushing to tuck it away and solve the problem as he continued to harass her and command that she do it... and she was jumping to his commands. we didn't give a hard time or anything. it was daytime. we were not like some reckless table. I honestly couldn't believe what I was seeing and hearing. she was completely flabbergasted and rattled the rest of the visit. it was so far out of line, you would have thought she ran someone over the way he was treating her. this grown woman was being yelled at like a little girl. he hovered and corrected and spoke loudly and never apologized or explained in a kind manner like someone in customer service would do normally. it was different. It was borderline verbally abusive. I've never seen an owner of an establishment harass its customers. The waitress was great and the food was mediocre, but I will never support this establishment again. that was the first and last time. so so unprofessional. read more

It's been years since I ate at Dave's. The menu is more robust with food classics. I had the burger with pastrami on it. The fries were very tasty. read more

Went there last Saturday, as it's my go to spot when I visit RI from New Hampshire to see friends and have some drinks. During my last visit (which will be my last visit), I went to the bathroom to relieve myself, choosing to do so in the urinal closest to the door. Mid-stream, the janitor (whom I assume is "Dave") walked in and in the most condescending tone remarks, "you had to pee on the puke?" Flabbergasted, I looked from him to the urinal, noticing some other patron had apparently lost their lunch in that very urinal previous to my visit to the men's room. Completely caught off guard by Dave's douchey tone, I remarked something along the lines of "I guess I did." Dave then requested that I move (mid-stream, mind you) to the next urinal, a downright preposterous suggestion. I obviously refused. He stood there trying to (and failing to), I guess, intimidate me while I finished my business and slowly washed my hands. He then followed behind me to my table. I sat down, ready to regale my compadres with the tale of my interaction with the owner (read: custodian) in question, when the lovely waitress came over to tell us that the owner said that she can't serve me, and that I'd have to go. Just then, as if doing his best strike three call, Dave appears behind her, throws his thumb behind him and says "yerrrr outtttaaa here". My friends and I, long-time customers all, left to go to a neighboring bar with better better deals, friendlier staff, and (most importantly) puke-free urinals. I don't blame Dave for being angry that he had to clean up someone's puke. I blame him for taking it out on me, a patron eager to empty his bladder and ultimately pay my hard-earned money at his establishment. I'm sorry that somebody puked, Dave, and if I had sawdust to throw on it pre-piss, I would've done you a solid. Reading other reviews, it appears Dave has serious anger management issues and revels in throwing customers out for minor / arbitrary issues. Could I have handled my interaction with puke-fingers Dave better? I don't know. Was I supposed to apologize for peeing in a urinal that he needed to clean at that minute? To be clear, he knew I wasn't the perp that had spewed the alleged puke into the urinal. Something tells me Dave drives a really big pickup truck with fake rubber testicles hanging from the back and a Calvin pissing on a Yankees logo sticker in the back windshield. I just got that vibe from him in our, albeit brief, relationship. Good luck to you, Dave. Be be sure to wash your hands! read more

We went there on a Saturday night. My brother went to pee in the bathroom. The janitor there was mad someone puked in the urinal a half hour before and kicked us out because he though it was us. We used to go every weekend but now we will never return. Tavern 12 a block away is much friendlier and better deals. Dave's is a trash heap. Don't go here. Got Nero virus over the summer here. Don't eat here. Don't drink here read more

Hadn't been here for a couple years because I was living in Colorado. Walked in to watch a Bruins/Canucks game and WHOA! They went from having about 12 taps where I was usually drinking either the Sierra Nevada or Newport Storm Hurricane Ale, to 54 taps!!! I couldn't have been more pleasantly surprised. Lots of regional craft selections if you're into that (I sure am) and always great pub food. Can't find a better place to watch NE sports and now with the expanded beer menu, I will be coming back regularly. Update: I still enjoy coming here for games as the food is good, beer selection is nice, and prices are reasonable, but on more than one occasion we've ordered beer that is past it's prime. This is due to the large selection and customer base that is still stuck in domestic hell. Also the owner is a jerk. read more

I am somewhat reluctant to share this Warwick gem with the entire Yelp! RI community, but on the other hand I would be doing everyone a disservice not to! I have been going here since I was a kid (back when Dave's famous grilled cheese & fries was $1.50) and I never get sick of it. Dave's has come a looong way since then, yet remains very much intact with its original concept. The main difference these days is a massive (30+) selection of draft craft beer. I will not make any comparisons to any VERY nearby beer spots... but let's just say Dave's puts them to shame like it's nobody's business! The pour and the pricing is unbelievably reasonable! Although I am partial to Dave's Famous Grilled Cheese (memories), I must mention their massive menu of American Pub fare and AWESOME pizza. Overall, the scene here is casual. It's a great "after work" spot, and it's open late! read more

Left work at the same time as a coworker and we decided to head to Dave's for a quick bite to eat and "a beer". Three hours later we walked out, both happy with the place. My buddy is a simple man. With each beer selection he claimed that he was going to be adventurous and try something new. And each time the bartender came around he happily ordered his go-to, a Sam lager. He was also delighted with his steak and potato dinner. For a guy used to frozen dinners and tunafish sandwiches, he dined grinning from ear to ear. If I'm eating at a bar I'm not going to go for a steak, I'll go for some pub fare. So a burger was definitely in order. A couple strips of bacon topping a good sized beef pattie and I was a happy man. Blown away? Nah, but I gladly cleaned my plate. What I wasn't expecting when I walked into this place was the beer selection. A place where I can get beers from Stone, Southern Tier, and Victory on tap all in one night? Good times. For me, that alone turned an average meal with a lot of tvs into a good night. If there's a game on then this is the place you want to go. The place is decked out in tvs. From the bar area to the dining room you'll be able to watch as you eat. The timing of our visit was a little poor. With the NBA locked out and the Bruins off for the night there was nothing on tv worth watching. read more

If you find out your PVD flight is delayed or cancelled, Dave's is a great place to grab a bite and relax. They have a lot of great beers on draft and a grilled cheese with fries and pickles is only $2.75. What a deal! The Jekyll and Hyde is HUGE and delicious (buffalo chicken covered with thinly sliced prime rib, bacon and cheese)! The Ranchero Burger was fantastic as well. Mine was cooked perfectly (medium) and very tasty. Both entrees came with a side (he chose fries, I got potato salad) and pickles. Lots of TVs to catch sporting events, the news, etc. I'm sure this place is packed during football season! read more

Disgusting. We came in here for lunch on a Thursday afternoon. I ordered the garden salad while my guests ordered the burger and buffalo chicken sandwhich. Their meals looked ok, except that the fries were totally frozen before they were deep fried. How can you mess up a sald you ask? Well, just go to Daves and they will surely do this for you. So, from afar, my garden salad looked very delicious. The greens were piled high, there were sliced cumcumbers on the perimeter of the plate. There were plenty of alfalfa sprouts to top the salad as well. When the plate arrived in front of me...you can see that the cucumbers were wilted and dried. Once you dig into the pile of alfalfa sprouts, the lettuce was all soggy, spoiled and wet. There is abosultely no excuse for a restaurant to serve spoiled food. A person could become ill with the health hazard of a plate they call "lunch". I now know why the cook piled on the alfalfa sprouts to cover the spoiled and rotten lettuce. I returned my plate and the server took the meal off the check. read more

I am giving Dave's Bar and Grille five stars because I've been there many times and each time my meal was beyond delicious. FULL DISCLOSURE: I have ONLY had the lobster roll at Dave's Bar and Grille. Therefore, my review is based on one menu item l - the lobster roll. Dave's makes a lobster roll that I would want to dedicate a song to. It is chock full of huge chunks of lobster meat, served on a fabulous roll. These days, I just eat the lobster salad because I no longer eat wheat. Just the lobster salad on its own is a meal in itself. With a tad of mayonnaise, that's all you get - a pile of fresh lobster chunks. Sometimes I ask for extra mayo because they don't use much, since I guess they want you to appreciate the lobster in the roll And what's better than that? (Oh I also got french fries to round out my meal - also good!!). I took my mother there once and I think she ordered a grilled cheese sandwich with french fries and a Coke. She loved her lunch too. Dave's is mainly a sports bar with wide screen tv's and men shouting out at their teams - this is not a quiet place nor is it one to go to for a romantic dinner unless you like sitting on high stools at high top tables making googly eyes. I hear they have a huge selection of really good beers, too. That's all I got.: Dave's = delicious lobstah roll. read more

Bleh is all I can say. I work nearby and ordered takeout. I was told it would be 15 mins. So I got there in 15 mins and my food was cold. The restaurant is too crowded, you cannot walk through the tables without bumping into someone who is sitting. The servers and bartenders were all rushed and annoyed. Wouldn't even go here for a drink. I do not recommend! read more

This is generally our place to go if the boy and i don't want to spend a ton of money and have a good burger or chicken sandwich and a good beer. The bar recently re-vamped itself and the change IMO was fantastic. Daves now sports a huge front bar, with tons of beers on tap (i think it's something like 50?) they have everything from your RI staple beers like Miller Lite and Narragansett, to more specialty craft beers. The selections are ever changing with the seasons. I'd suggest sitting at the front bar as the waiter service at the booths can be fairly slow when busy, and the high top tables are to squished together for my taste. The front bartenders are always friendly, prompt and attentive. Several flat big screens make anywhere a good TV viewing area and they have some video games spaced around as well as 2 pool tables, basketball game and an air hockey table. Not a lot of cash? Grab the $2.00 grilled cheese. Can't beat that. read more

Driving down Post Road this place just sneaks up on you. When you walk in you aren't quite sure what to expect but after coming here I was pleasantly surprised. Starting off with the beverage options. They have an unexpectedly large draft beer selections ranging from your normal large distributors to smaller brewers. They also make a strong mixed drink. There food is nothing out of the world but it is still quite good and has been consistent the 2 times I have went. They have pizza, a decent selection of appetizers and sandwiches, as well as a few dinners. I got pizza 1 time and a Rachel the other. Both of them were very enjoyable. I got the chili cheese fries with the Rachel and although their chili is good, I wasn't a fan of it on the fries but too each their own. A good food and drink selection coupled with very reasonable prices and a bunch of TVs to watch the games, Gregory's becomes a good place to hang out and grab some food and drinks to watch a game. I have been satisfied both times I have come and will most likely be back if I am down in the Warwick area. read more

I drove by Dave's to get to Shannon View Inn many of times, and I was always intrigued by how packed the parking lot always was. So, one day my brother asked if I wanted to try it. Dave's has many beers on draft, which I love. The menu has so many choices that I find it hard to believe that they can cycle through everything and maintain freshness. I ordered the buffalo chicken sandwich. The chicken is grilled and cooked nicely with a coating of sauce. The fries were fresh of the potato and tasted great. On my second time here, I ordered the Jekyll and Hyde. It's a buffalo chic sandwich with sliced beef topped with BBQ sauce and onion rings. The sandwich would have been amazing, but the beef tasted reheated/microwaved. If it wasn't for that, I'd have completely loved this place, but I can't shake ruined BBQ. The setting is great. There is always a tv in view to watch your favorite sports no matter where you sit. They have random video game machines and 2-7ft pool tables. Overall, this place was great, plenty of drinks, good food, and lots to do with your friends. I'd come here again. read more

Got my flight rerouted from JFK to Rhode Island due to severe weather and stuck with a terrible overnight layover. All the Amtrak, hotel and car rental over $150 and flight leaves at 6am.. what to do ? Get some beer and find a chill place to work on my laptop with some WiFi and since I'm in Rhode Island on a random Monday night in the middle of the night it sure would be great to find a cool lobster roll with only a small cab faire. Enter Dave's bar and grille! Such a fabulous low key chill place for me to safely spend my time, get some delicious craft beer and this incredible lobster roll. So grateful that this could make a bad situation better. Staff so nice, chill and understanding. I'm walking around the place using the bathroom, taking up a while booth - feels like I'm with family or mini air bnb. If ur stuck at the airport or find urself in between come to this place! The locals seem to already know as everyone is here. Thanks Dave! read more

Daves Bar and Grille - Lobster roll - Sports Bars Near Me - Warwick, Rhode Island

One of our faves for a real Steak sandwiche (not shaved), great French fries & if not a fry lover Awesome potato salad. Game nights can get really loud but for great prices. Only missed 5 star because on a rare occasion service can be iffy & steak overdone. Quickly fixed I have to say. read more

Great place to get a drink, eat, and watch some sports! They also have a phenomenal brunch. Sadly, I believe the brunch is for banquets only, so the moral of that short sentence is: GO IF YOUR INVITED! They have a lot of beers on tap, full bar, you can sit in cozy booths or high top tables. It's not fancy but its a great place to grab a bite to eat if you're in the area, looking for a place to watch a game and eat, or just want good, cheap food! They are known for their infamous grilled cheese - you can't go wrong! I also, really love the chowder! read more

Great bar & grille. If I had to choose one casual, fun and fast place in the state of ri it is daves. My wife loves the bbq chicken sandwich, and I enjoy the grilled chicken sandwich. The service is usually fast and friendly. Our only issue are the new fries they are serving. Some might love them, we do not. We miss the steak fries. In fact we order our sandwiches without the regular fries and request the steak fries everytime, but they don't allow substitutes!! Daves is wayyyy better that most other bar and griles we have been to in the state. read more

Holy beer taps, Batman! I think there's about 50 of them, not bad for a little bar in Warwick. Needless to say Dave's has got the beer department covered! They have a respectable line-up of craft brews and do a great job keeping up with the seasonal offerings. The food is pretty good. Typical pub grub. The pizzas are surprisingly delicious and the Kelly Burger is quite tasty. The appetizer sampler or the nachos make a good companion to your beer when watching the game. Speaking of watching the game... Dave's is perfect for that. They've got a ton of TVs and even two projection screens for Sunday football. If your team is playing, it'll be on one of the TVs here. The bar area tends to fill up quickly on game day so head in early if you want to grab a spot at the bar. I see a lot of complaints about the service. I've never had bad service while sitting at the bar. The bartenders are always friendly and attentive enough to keep the drinks flowing, even when it gets busy. With that being said, the service in the dining area is hit or miss. Sometimes it's OK, other times it's terrible. We've actually stopped sitting at the tables altogether because of this. It's bar or bust for us! So if you're looking to grab a pint and watch the game with friends, Dave's is perfect. read more

Definite a great place to hang, eat and meet up with friends. TV galore and dinner specials are a plus. Did I mention the nachos? Awesome - need anything more? Get the Chix wings extra crispy with hot sauce on the side. Parking is easy....not the any really is too concerned but hey it's a plus. read more

Daves Bar and Grille - Sports Bars Near Me - Warwick, Rhode Island

The food here is wonderful. Their soups are homemade and excellent. Great service too!

First off, I don't quite remember our waitresses name but she was awesome and friendly. We ordered three things to split. Lobster roll (never had one before), snail salad (never had that either), and New England clam chowder. The lobster roll was less than I expected...but hey, it's lobster, it was still tasty. We sent back the snail salad because it was very chewy. We switched it for a bacon cheeseburger (turned out to be good). The New England clam chowder was the highlight for me. Probably the best I've ever had. And the bowl is good as a meal or to split with someone. The service was very good! We had nice conversation with our waitress and she was very accommodating when we didn't like the snail salad. Not sure if I would return, but it was nice in the moment. Quick and easy. read more

Are you ready for some FOOTBALL? On most Sundays you will find me here watching my favorite team play football. Everyone in the family puts on their Jersey and heads over for a great time. This is the only bar that I have been to where we all the teams get along. There are too many TVs to count so everyone gets their way here. The food is your average bar fair and what the food lacks the beers makes up for. I usually will get a sampler so I don't have to choose just one. read more

I am not from the area but I am here for a job today. When I wrapped up my work, I asked where to get a good meal in a causal atmosphere. Dave's they said without hesitation. I am here and happy. The food is great was served up quick! Waiter is friendly and attentive without being overbearing and the prices are very reasonable. It's a win for me. read more

Daves Bar and Grille - Dave's deli is delicious - Sports Bars Near Me - Warwick, Rhode Island

Dave's is about as good a sports bar as you can get. They have an extensive collection of beers from around the country. In addition, the menu is quite varied and resasonably priced. It is not gourmet by any stretch of the imagination, but very well done. I have been coming here since 1990 when I got off the plane from being transferred to the area. When I asked the front desk person at the hotel where there was a great sports bar in the area, this is where she directed me. I have been coming ever since... read more

Pretty good food, especially the chicken quesadilla. Huge portions, but not the finest-quality ingredients. It's a sports bar. The staff are compatible with the most decidedly sports-bar atmosphere of pop music, numerous flat-screen TVs, arcade games and a pool table. Though my experience involved a waitress who was fun and sassy at first, but then got kind of annoying towards the end of our meal because she wanted to leave and wanted us to cash out. It's a great local hangout, and a fantastic destination if you want to stuff and pickle yourself while catching that must-see game. Not fine dining by any measure, but it definitely hits the spot and will leave you stuffed. read more

Very chill place to go grab a drink and watch a game. The bartenders very friendly and happy to have a decent conversation. Foods typical pub food but the kitchen is open really late so at 11:00, it all tastes good! read more

So this review is pretty narrow and limited in scope. I only ever visit for lunch with the kids, usually with another mom with kids. We love it because we can always grab this long booth that is set off to the side of the restaurant between the restrooms and some arcade games. The kids stay occupied and relatively behaved playing with the games til the food comes. I think they've recently changed the menu because there aren't as many kid options as there used to be. This last visit my son had to order a burger off of the regular menu. I like that you can choose a vegetable instead of fries for sides but the broccoli, squash and asparagus we had were so overcooked they were virtually inedible. Based on this experience I probably won't bring the kids back but it seems like a good place for a business lunch or a drink after work. read more
