Public Kitchen and Bar - Providence

So convenient to grab dinner before a show at the Vets, as well as dine here if you're a guest at the hotel. But, you don't need to be a guest or a show-goer to pop in for the chill vibe, cool cocktails and yummy food.

We did make a change and opted to sit at the bar. I notified the staff that we were going to sit at the bar so they could cancel our reservation. The bar was hopping and I had a Moktail and it was great. My husband had a Manhattan and he said it was outstanding. The prices were very high for the drinks. The food we ordered was very good and the prices were somewhat high but our food selections were very good. It’s a great location when attending a show at the VETS.

The menu selections were right in our wheelhouse for a variety of tastes and textures in small plates to entrees. Service was a little slow! They charge $12.00 for non-alcoholic drinks making them almost as high as cocktails with a shot of alcohol. That was disappointing. Club soda with a slice of lime will be the order next time. I wonder how much they'll charge for the ice and lime. Food was delicious.

Food was bland/ unimpressive, usual hotel mark-up on pricing, staff was noticeably bickering.

First time here. Came here before a show at Amica Pavilion . Great atmosphere. Beautiful bar. Friendly service. Our waiter August was very attentive. Drinks, appetizers and dinners were very good. Will definitely return!
