    I have been here a couple of times. Most recently, I threw an event here with attorneys and law…read morestudents. The program went great, and everyone loved the venue! We ended up having a last-minute venue change to Ladder, and I am so happy that the prior venue fell through. I worked directly with the owner, who was awesome! He was able to work with what we wanted/needed to be covid friendly during an event, and he was always accessible. I had preselected appetizers for everyone, and I did drink tickets. We ended up taking The Jake lounge, which worked out perfect for us. We had our own bathrooms and had our own bartender and servers. Highly recommend it if you are throwing an event!

The venue itself is perfect for a fun and relaxed event. The room was spotless and the staff was extremely accommodating to any requests from myself or my guests! As for the food! Delicious, pipping hot and beautifully presented! The gourmet pizza appetizers were amazing and set upon in an attractive station presentation. The buffet was perfect.... We are a family of foodies and all agreed that the Chicken Francaise was delectable! Penne pink vodka would rival any of your well known Italian restaurants! Everyone remarked on the fabulous food! I am sure that this is the best event venue in Rhode Island by far. Do not hesitate to book your next party at The Jake! You and your guests will be thrilled!

The drinks were very good and I'm not much of a drinker so these were very good. The service was very good, the bartender was very friendly and helped to give some suggestions based on things that I usually like to drink. They also have some games for you and your friend to play while you are enjoying your drinks. I can't wait to go again and try more of their menu.

The place is nestled away inside the Room & Works building with just a call box and no sign, so make sure you know the password! We came in with another group in front of us, so unfortunately, we didn't get the chance to say the password ourselves, but we'd love to return for the full experience! Be warned that the place is quite small, so you'll most likely have to wait since they do not take reservations. For a party of two on a Saturday night, our wait was around 40 minutes, and we were eventually seated by the bar. I will say that the seating arrangements could be thought out a little better because we had to play musical chairs quite a few times throughout the night. That aside, the drinks themselves were quite good! You can tell the bartenders are very skilled and passionate about crafting their cocktails. For any Star Wars fans out there, the tiki drinks are served in mugs featuring some of your favorite characters, which was such a fun touch! Overall, the drinks were on the pricier side, but I'd say they were well worth it. Definitely a fun spot to check out!

    Somehow, despite having lived here for years and spending plenty of time around downtown…read moreProvidence, I had never been to The Eddy. I'm honestly not sure how I missed it, because this is exactly the kind of place I like finding. It is the true definition of a small cocktail bar. The space is tiny, intimate, and has a very specific atmosphere, so if you're looking for a big place with plenty of tables, this probably isn't it. If you're looking for a great cocktail in a cozy little bar, however, you're in the right place. The cocktail menu is excellent. There are a lot of creative options that go well beyond the standard collection of Old Fashioneds, Margaritas, and Martinis you'll find at most bars. The drinks are imaginative without becoming gimmicky, and the combinations we tried were really well balanced and interesting. You can tell there is some serious thought behind the cocktail program, and it makes ordering something new a lot of fun. Our waitress was fantastic as well. My wife ordered a drink that apparently isn't something every bartender is familiar with, so our waitress went back to the bartender to ask about it. The bartender immediately knew exactly what she was talking about, which was a nice little reminder that these people actually know their drinks. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience easy without hovering over us. The music deserves a mention, too. It was fantastic and fit the atmosphere perfectly. The Eddy has that comfortable, slightly dark cocktail-bar feeling where you can sit down, have a drink, listen to good music, and actually enjoy being there rather than feeling like you're sitting in a loud restaurant waiting for someone to bring you your check. My only real warning is that this place is genuinely small. That is part of its charm, but it also means getting in and finding a seat can be difficult at times, particularly when it's busy. You probably shouldn't show up with a large group expecting to immediately find a table. For two people looking for a couple of really good cocktails, though, it's pretty much ideal. The prices are also quite reasonable for the quality of the drinks. You're obviously paying cocktail-bar prices rather than dive-bar prices, but I didn't feel like we were being taken advantage of. Considering the creativity and quality of what we were drinking, I thought the prices were perfectly fair. I'm actually a little annoyed that I went this long without knowing The Eddy existed. Providence has so many cocktail bars that you can spend years here and still keep discovering places you've somehow walked past a hundred times. The Eddy is definitely going on the list of places we need to come back to, and we will 100% be back.

Turns out they had almost all high top tables, however we were able to be seated at the low table that seats 8. Other members of our party were able to be seated at 2 comfy chairs and a few nearby high tops. Food: excellent! Service:: excellent Ambiance: excellent So good that my husband requested to return for his birthday the next month. Only glitch was they had double booked.

The altercation happened prior to me getting there yet I was treated like I was there the whole time. Mind you before they put their hands on me, one of the bartenders had the nerve to ask where was her tip, after she got the tip is when she decides I have 5 mins to drink my drink or I was going to be thrown out of there! Last time I checked bartenders are able to refuse service but physically grabbing my hand not by one but two workers is definitely a assault! When she grabbed my drink & threw it away, I asked for a refund and they refused! Stay away from this place if you don't want to end up in jail for defending yourself and value your money!​

    Such a chill vibe here and the food is just as good. Their chicken bacon ranch pizza ($21) was…read moreprobably in my top 10 pizzas eaten in my life - vegan or not. The herb ranch sauce would taste good on a flip-flop and the tofu was so tender & tasty. I love the shiitake bacon also. The PC Reuben was very good, but the Reuben sandwich at Garden Grille is a better. The seitan texture in Plant City's sandwich was really moist, but the "meat"could've used more flavor. I also couldn't taste the sauce, it needed much more. It needed cheese too, which Garden Grille has. $16 is about $3 too much for the sandwich. The espresso martini was okay ($14). There are way better ones in the state and Plant City's tasted watered down. Friendly staff, but service can be slow. It wasn't that busy, but I had to wait 10-15 minutes for my pizza after I finished eating my Reuben sandwich.

    We stopped to eat as we headed back to New York City. I was hoping for a sit down experience but…read morethat section of the establishment was not open when we arrived (about 45 minutes early) so we ordered from the deli counter in the market department. I opted for their wrap. It was well stuffed with a chickpea "tuna" salad. I found it substantial and filling; the taste and texture were excellent, and I was sated and ready for my drive to the city. Unfortunately, I don't expect to be back to Providence any time soon. I'd love to come again when the restaurant is open -- good vegan/plant based food isn't always easy to find.
