    Beef crunch wrap
    John M.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Mews Tavern holds a special place for many in the area. It has really evolved from being a quirky dive bar to branching out to a more mainstream and family friendly space.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Going after many years and in a different point in my life, I appreciated the nostalgia of still having the tree room with canopy on the wall.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The nachos were as good as I recall, perfectly balanced with toppings and chips. The crunch wrap special was ok.... But actually disappointing in the flavor.

    Great local pub with an enormous list of draft beers and solid American and Mexican style food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lots of seating inside and outside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Burger and fries
    Maria J L.

    Food/Drinks: My family and I came here to grab something to eat, and I'm not usually around this location, so this was a first for me. The food was delicious. My husband and I got the honey pepperoni pizza, and it was very delicious and huge pretty spicy too! We were able to take some home! My brother got a pulled pork burger, and he really liked it with his fries. Pretty sure he also got loaded fries. He enjoyed it so much he didn't leave not one crumb on his plate, lol. My cousin also got a hamburger and fries, and she thought it was delicious! They also got beers, and everything was pretty good and fairly priced. When I'm around this area, I'm definitely going to come back to this location due to the food itself. Location: [[HIGHLIGHT]]This location is huge, and it had inside and outside seating with lots of tables![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's pretty casual, more so a sports bar-type of setting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Pretty nice to bring family and friends to grab a bite or even go on a casual date.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They also had private parking, which makes things a lot easier! Service: Service was great. Our waiter was super nice, brought everything in a timely manner, and asked if we needed anything, very attentive. I'm usually not around this area, but when I am, I'm definitely going to stop by to grab a bite here!

    Mahi Mahi on top of a side house salad

    Last night we hit the Mews for an early dinner and we had good service. We entered the restaurant through the Tavern side and it was a bit loud, so we marched down to the hostess station to get a table in the more calm space of the restaurant. I got a small house salad with grilled Mahi Mahi on top (no salt added). My husband got the soba noodles and a side caesar salad. Mine was good and perfectly made, I devoured my entire Mahi salad. My husband's noodle dish was very salty...something to keep in mind...the good thing was that the noodles were soba, so they were mostly buckwheat flour, which is better for you. Overall a nice relaxing dinner and our server was very good, and prompt.

    Mews is a fun, casual spot for cold beer and comfort food. Lots of burgers and sandwiches, such as reubens, BBQ plates, pizza, and shareable appetizers. There are salad options and some entrees too, and all of it is served by friendly and attentive staff. The atmosphere is unique and varied...you can dine in the tree room, outdoors, bar seating , etc. Either way, loosen your belt and prepare to wait during peak times at this popular spot.

    I went here last night and it's a super cute spot. It's real big too. It's a whole vibe from the dog house table to the dollar bar room to the giant tree. Def a fun spot! I found the prices to be a bit high. My best friend has a gluten allergy so to get a side salad instead of fries (she can't have them due to cross contamination) and a GF bun it added like $6-8 to her meals cost. I just feel like that's a lot! Our service was great. My cocktail was amazing and well priced. Other than the entrees being a bit pricey for the spot, I liked it!

    A long time staple of Wakefield, Mews is always busy. I still remember going here when I was in my 20s and not much has really changed. The staff are well-trained, friendly and really attentive. The beer menu is about as good as it gets down in south county and is constantly rotating for the connoisseurs. I like that they keep families in one area and the bar area as 21+. It's clean inside and so are the bathrooms. The bad news is the food is kinda meh. First glance of the menu looks perfect as far as selection but where it fails is the execution. The fried food tastes of cheap oils, the smoked meats are dry and compensated with extra condiments and the nachos are packed together like bricks and mortar. It's disappointing because everything else here is so well done that you expect it to be slightly better. Overall, it's a really great place but just don't expect high quality food.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Atmosphere is great, cozy bar scene with plenty of bar seats and table options.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Hug beer selection! Vast menu with lots of food options. We loved the feta dip appetizer and I thought the French onion soup was delicious. Service was good, our bartender was friendly and attentive!

    Kitchen sink pizza
    Issac K.

    This is one of the default spots my buddies and I go for dinner on Friday nights after work. After exploring their menu for a bit, I've sorta decided that their pizzas are my favorite thing on their menu. I always get a large, and it's never a chore to finish it off. In particular, their hot honey and pepperoni is always seems great, especially with a beer.

    Honestly one of the color atmosphere's I've seen in a while! Loved the story behind the dollar bills up front! The server was kind and knowledge and definitely provided great recommendations for drinks and beer! The chipotle maple wings I'd drive down for again for sure! My friend loved her chicken parm pizza, the burger was juicy and tasted fresh, and the pulled pork was not dry at all! The nachos were a crowd pleaser! Looks to be a local legend and I can see why it has been here for a long time

    Burger and tots- amazingly delicious!
    Tim S.

    Another visit to URI and Mews! This time I tried a burger (mushroom - swiss)- it was excellent. And the accompanying tater tots were both plentiful and amazing! So crispy and crunchy on the outside, tender on the inside. The burger and tots earned Mews another star!

Each of them was 10/10. Natural cut fries are my favorite and they were perfect. Brussel sprouts were rich and indulgent. The oysters came with lime and a kimchi mignionette. So fresh and unique. Crudo came with a decadent chili crisp. Flavorful and refreshing. The bahn mi looked pretty bland but was actually a delightful combination of flavors.

The birthday boy enjoyed his free birthday beer (one of the many perks of celebrating at Tower Hill), while I opted for a flight featuring Boss Light, New Zealand Pilsner, Black Point & a refreshing passionfruit hard seltzer. It was a great way to sample a variety of styles & I enjoyed all of them. As if great beer was not enough, we were treated to live entertainment by a traditional pickin' & grinnin' acoustic jam band. Calling it a band hardly does it justice - there were at least 20 musicians! Guitars, banjos, fiddles, mandolins... the room was filled with incredible talent & toe-tapping tunes. It felt less like watching a performance & more like being part of an old-fashioned musical gathering. Between the delicious brews, the lively music & the festive birthday vibes, it was the perfect way to cap off the evening. We will definitely be back for another pint & hopefully another jam session! Highly recommend. NOM NOM NOM... well, in this case, SIP SIP SIP #YUM

She was busy working on side work but she always kept an ear towards us so when we were ready, so was she. A sign of a real professional. We ordered some margaritas, the calamari and a small Powerslide pizza. Before long, she was setting everything down in front of us and we dug right in I was able to sample this pizza before at our National Pizza Day event last month so I was eager to snag a slice the moment it appeared before us. Sausage, caramelized onions, garlic and goat cheese. Yes, please. The combination of toppings with their dough as a base, with the bit of char from the wood fired oven? Divine. The calamari was excellent as well, fried perfectly (and if you know anything about me, I'm a bit particular about seafood). The peppers and olives were classic, well-prepared additions to the dish. And with the drizzle of balsamic, provided the extra acidity that I love on my seafood. And WHEN (not if) you swing by, if you drink make sure you order a cocktail. I've had an espresso martini before and now this time a margarita and every time they knock it out of the park! Loads of flavor options as well so you will find something you love, guaranteed. Summer is coming, so head down to the beach now before it gets too crazy and get one of the best pizzas in South County!
