This place has been on my list for a while but I never made it until tonight--some local friends told me it was one of their favorites and I can see why. Great cocktails and service--went on a weeknight but never felt rushed even though we were there kinda late. Food was excellent and will definitely return! read more

From start to finish this meal was nothing short of spectacular. The decor is perfect. Minimal, cozy, with just the right amount of light. The servers/bartenders are quick to take your drink order, but wonderfully patient while you choose your meal. We began with the Brie, which was a full wheel, covered with warm apples, served with crostinis. It was FABULOUS. my husband ordered the bibimbap, which was loaded with fresh, well cooked ingredients, served sizzling in a hot bowl. The gojujang (sp) sauce is a perfect accouterment, and also makes for a perfect dip for fries. I had the fried chicken sandwich, which was topped with fajita veggies, avocado. It was amazing. We will happily drive back up here from southern RI! read more

Went for brunch and it was awesome!! I got the eggs Benedict, eggs were perfect and the hollandaise has the perfect flavor and texture. My daughter got the hash and eggs, it was an interesting twist with beets but complimented the dish. We sat outside and the decor was simple but nice, service was good, I will be back again! read more

The Shanty - Custom lights over bar - New American Near Me - Warwick, Rhode Island

I had the best experience at the Shanty. I was on a solo trip and saw the great reviews so I had to make the drive to check it out. I'm always a fan of local farm fresh ingredients. I was greeted warmly by the host when I arrived. I was seated right away (no wait at the time but it definitely got crowded). The waiter was just as friendly. The food was fantastic. I treated myself to a bloody Mary and the lobster benedict (since I live in a landlocked state, I had to indulge in the good stuff). It was a relaxing Sunday brunch. Not once did I feel rushed. The waiter was attentive but definitely not overbearing. If I could have, I would have dined here more than once. There were plenty of other menu options that I would have loved to have tried. read more

Took my family out to the Shanty to celebrate my daughter's move to Rhode Island yesterday (6/8/25) evening. First time here. Place has a very unassuming presence off of RT-1 in south side of Warwick. Service was great. Food was even better. Pleasant surprise. I highly recommend and will be going back when visiting down there :) read more

We planned our road trip home around this place. We got there as soon as it opened and we seated right away. To start, I ordered the veggie Bloody Mary. It was delicious. Next up, my husband ordered the ham eggs Benedict which came which a really delicious homemade jam. I couldn't decide what to order so our waitress helped me. In the end I got the Chilaquiles. It was absolutely delicious. I loved every bite. We were extremely stuffed but saw another table order the apple cider cake so we had to try it. It was so dense, it was almost like concrete!! Incredibly delicious. Great food, great service and great portion sizes! read more

Food drinks and service all thumbs up consistently. Theres a reason why this place is packed always because its awesome

Atmosphere is fun and eclectic, and I have tried many times on the menu and they were all very delicious!

The guru finds himself in Rhode Island for the next few days hungry as always for local fare. With a sign that says "eat local" I simply could not resist. Walking in you notice right away that the bar takes up a good half of the entire restaurant's real estate. So that leaves me questioning is this a restaurant or simply a bar that serves food like a gastropub? The feel of the place does give it that vibe of a gastropub but the menu clearly indicates it's trying to be a restaurant. Ok very well I say to myself. I order the lobster roll and a caesar salad. for the appetizer I see this item called "crab and potato latkas". I was curious and ordered that. the caesar salad was nothing special. Just a pile of lettuce and way too much cheese. If that's your thing than go for it. the lobster roll was absolutely terrible and avoid at all costs. I'm usually ok eating even a bad lobster roll. Hey it's lobster. How bad could it be? The lobster was so rubbery it was completely inedible. This is very surprising given this area is known for fresh lobster. What that chef did to that poor lobster is anyone's guess. I substituted that for the fish and chips. Their fish and chips were surprisingly good and flavorful. the fish was nice and flaky and melts in your mouth enveloped with a nice light batter. Even the fries were nicely seasoned and the cole slaw was night and light as well. Even the tater sauce to go with it was actually quite nice. A total contrast from the other dish. now for the weird item. The latkes. I was so confused by them because they are basically little bites of crab meat sandwiched between two tiny hash browns with aioli to top it. These are not latkes but after several minutes of eating them I started to really like the contrast of these different flavors. So in a weird way this kind of worked as a dish. The aioli sauce with the crab meat works nicely with the crispiness of the hash brown they're calling a latke. Servers were very nice by the way. So despite my mixed experience I will be generous and give this place 4 stars as a gastropub. This place needs to take the complicated dishes off the menu and stick with the classics like most of the menu already is. Just get the fish and chips with a nice beer and you will be very happy here. And finally to the great people of Rhode Island I want to thank you all for your warm hospitality to this weary traveler. Thank you for keeping places like this in business that clearly need some work but are trying to do the right thing. read more

Ambiance is cute, would go there again. Menu always changes but they do have staples that never change, loved my dinner & server was sweet!

The food was absolutely amazing. Like... I try to only go to places with 4 or more stars, and even then I'm sometimes dubious. But the Shanty was way better than I expected. My husband got the TV dinner and it was a ton of food and totally delicious. I got the special (a pork chop with some delicious sauce), but the highlight were the "fries" that were actually butternut squash. Wow! So good!! read more

Had the lobster roll a second time this Spring and this time it was excellent and ample. Sweet potato fries and the burger were great too!

Consistency and kindness. The wait staff are happy to serve and eager to ensure you have a great experience. Always helpful with a menu description or suggestion. The food is FRESH and delicious. I've been here for dinner but brunch is my jam here. I enjoy the rock crab eggs Benedict. Large, whole pieces of crab are sweet, tender and contrast nicely with the buttery hollandaise. They have a couple other Benny styles but that's my fave. They have oodles of gluten free choices and are super flexible with adjustments, if possible, to accommodate dietary requests. This spot is also family friendly. Yes, their beautiful bar is the centerpiece of the dining area but it's chill and they are ready to feed the little folks with highchairs and kid friendly menu choices. Prices are reasonable. You'll spend about 10-15 bucks on the average breakfast fare with a little more for some items (like eggs Benedict). Solid choice! read more

Ive always wanted to try The Shanty and finally committed to it. Our party of 2 went on a Friday night at around 7 and the restaurant was packed to the brim but there was a few seats at the bar. The bar seating wasnt very comfortable and the stools were at an awkward height for me. It was cozy inside, with the fireplace on in the back and everyone seemed to know each other. The service was very good and the food came quickly as well. We tried the empanadas and clams for appetizers, the sauce for the clams was unreal- I shouldve asked to have it packed up so I could add some pasta to it at home. We also ordered the fish and chips and the General Tsaos chicken sandwich, both were massive portions that came with a lot of fries. Outside of the clams, the food was good but not amazing but the service was great. read more

Cute little place with unique food options. The bartender Alisa was the sweetest and very personable. I had the TV dinner and my hubby had the ribeye. Both were delicious. read more

We had brunch here and it was pretty packed. I ordered the Chilaquiles Breakfast. You can def share it because they give a good portion. The dish was good overall, but the only thing is, the nachos get soggy if you don't eat it quick enough. My friend has a fried chicken with home fries and biscuit dish that was tasty too. The service was great and the timing was as well. read more

The rating is for the food and customer service only. The girls' provided friendly customer service and were very attentive -- refilling coffee constantly and making sure we were all set. We both ordered rock crab Benedict's and it was SO good! Surprisingly, I didn't feel sluggish after eating that like I normally do when I order Benedict's elsewhere. The portion of the crab was generous as well But! The Bloody Mary was even ...more bounteous! Just look at the picture ! read more

Unfortunately, with a lot of these trendy restaurants they can't keep up with the demand so they start cutting corners when it comes to quality. We tried The Shanty this week, overall not impressed. The restaurant is focused around a large bar, with booths and small high tops arranged around it, which makes it a challenge to move around. The service was fine, not over-friendly, basic greetings, drink refills, not too long of a wait for beverages/food. We ordered a Caesar Salad with chicken and the Korean Spatzle with chicken. The Caesar Salad was dressed well but the chicken was hard and dry, assuming precooked and sitting in a pan for a long period of time. The Korean Spatzle was not good, mushy tiny balls of dough, not even close to spatzle, served in an over sweet/spicy sauce. Again, the chicken in this dish was precooked and assuming sitting around waiting to be served. Not sure how the chef could endorse the dish as it was terrible. Do not recommend. read more

The shanty has been in my list for a while! Finally got to try it for myself and whoa it did not disappoint! We went in at 645 on a Sunday night and got chicken wings to start. 2 of us had the miso salmon with kimchi aioli, the tv dinner and the fish and chips! Everyone loved their meal. Staff was lovely and so patient with us indecisive people. My only regret was not asking for a side of that kimchi aioli! Can't wait to go back and try more :) read more

My wife and I stopped in here totally spontaneously. It just happened to be Valentine's Day. There were no reservations available so we took a chance and went to the bar where it's 1st come 1st serve. Great atmosphere and super friendly staff! I ordered the Red potato hash (no egg or sour cream) as a side and the Big Ol Burger. My wife had the chicken sandwich. I was a bit disappointed in the Hash. It was just a pile of mush. Usually has has some texture and I do prefer it crispy. My wife's chicken sandwich was ok, chicken was dry. My burger.... I asked for Med rare and it was out well done. They did replace the burger and took it off the menu which I wasn't expecting so that was nice. The new burger that came out was better but still not med rare. The fries were great! We will come back and check them out again as im sure it was crazy being Valentine's Day. read more

We dine at The Shanty regularly. All of the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. Love the delicious food, prepared fresh, but we would like it if they offered "specials" to switch up the limited menu a bit. Try the TV dinner or Fish & Chips, or any of their brunch items. For those with mobility or back issues, please note that the restaurant is crowded inside, difficult to maneuver, and there is no soft seating (wooden bench seats and chairs). Otherwise, it's a good neighborhood spot! read more

The Shanty has been on my list for a while. Went tonight and everything was absolutely perfect. The service was some of the best i've had probably since before the pandemic! The food was outstanding even impressing my picky co-diners. Has the crab rangoon cakes and the Brussels and bacon salad for starters. For entrees we had the fish and chips, pork chop, short rib stroganoff, and statler chicken. Everything was perfectly cooked, seasoned and hot! Drinks were great. Only 3 desserts on the menu and nothing was chocolate-please add a chocolate option- so we had the rhubarb crisp which was ok. Forgot to take pics of most items, that's how good it was. Cant wait to try brunch! read more
