This past weekend, a celebration of life for my mother was held at Pooch's and everything was…read moreincredible! It was held in a room upstairs from their main dining area and held almost 50 people very comfortably. The entire staff was fantastic and were willing to accommodate any needs or requests my family had. The food was outstanding and there was not one guest who wouldn't agree! I would highly recommend to anyone looking to host any type of event to check out Pooch's! Not only was the experience amazing for a private event, but Pooch's is also one of my favorite go to spots in downtown Westerly!

Update If you're…read morelooking for a spot that nails the classics while still feeling fresh and fun, Pooch's Pour House is it. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is welcoming--laid‑back enough for a casual night out, but with just the right buzz to make it feel special. Wings: Hands down some of the best wings around. Perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and tossed in sauces that actually taste crafted rather than generic. The buffalo has that ideal balance of tang and heat, while the honey BBQ hits with smoky sweetness. What impressed me most was consistency--every wing came out cooked to perfection, no soggy bites, no overdone edges. Nachos: The nachos are a showstopper. A generous pile that doesn't skimp on toppings--every layer has cheese, jalapeños, and savory goodness, not just the top. The house‑made queso is rich and creamy, and the fresh pico adds a bright kick that keeps the dish from feeling heavy. It's the kind of plate that's perfect for sharing, though you'll be tempted to keep it all to yourself. Beyond the food, the staff is attentive without hovering, and the drinks are cold and reasonably priced. It's the kind of place where you can settle in for a game, a night with friends, or just indulge in comfort food done right. Bottom line: Pooch's Pour House delivers wings and nachos that set the bar high, and the overall vibe makes it a spot worth returning to again and again.

The staff was extremely friendly, especially our outside bartender Gabrielle, who was fantastic, so personable and creative with her drinks. Honestly, the drinks and her service were the best part of our experience. We started with the lobster wraps, which were good, but the tarragon and dill were very strong and overpowered the lobster. Next we had the scallops for $38, which I didn't feel were worth the price about 12 small scallops with a bit of lettuce. They were cooked well, corn sauce was nice but nothing particularly special, and I would've ordered differently knowing what I was getting. We were still hungry, so we got the rigatoni, which was delicious. My only note was again the heavy use of fresh dill, which started to overpower an otherwise great dish. Overall, I would absolutely come back for the location, the great staff, and especially Gabrielle. I'd return for drinks and try different menu items next time.

Buttermilk Fried Chicken had super crisp skin and was executed and presented perfectly, great tasting together with the accompanied pickled vegetables and hot-honey butter.

On the second call a bartender answered and refused to provide the managers name, a way to contact the manager, or information about the bartender on shift. They accused me of blaming the bartender, which I clarified multiple times I did not. They hung up because they were too busy. I called on a week day around noon, so it is unlikely they were busy as on weekends there is barely anyone there. I had to make a post on Facebook to be acknowledged by the owner. When the post was made the official bar account blamed my friend and told her to take accountability and watch her drink. The post got attention of the local community and 5 other women have come forward saying they had a similar experience. My friend is traumatized by the way they chose to handle the situation. Don't drink here, if something happens they will blame you and refuse to assist in any manner. Food is disgusting and the whole place smells like a septic leak, you aren't missing much by avoiding this place. Keep yourself safe.

On our most recent visit, after each of us had only eaten a few bites and hadn't even finished our first drinks, the waitress came over asking if we wanted a box. A little later, she came back and started boxing up our food without even asking us first--even though we were still eating. At the same time, she dropped off the check and said, "No rush." We had also ordered a second round of drinks and had only taken a couple of sips. Unfortunately, this wasn't a one-time experience. Every visit has felt like the staff is trying to hurry us out the door. The food is good, but the service leaves a lot to be desired. When I'm spending over $100 for a meal, I expect to be able to enjoy it without feeling like I'm being pushed out. Honestly, I don't think it should matter whether a table spends $20 or $200--every customer deserves to feel welcome and not rushed. It's not a great feeling, and it's the reason we'll be thinking twice before returning.
