Went here on a whim on a Friday night. Fairly busy, but we were able to find a seat quickly. It was…read moreprobably around 5 PM or so when we arrived, and there wasn't much left in the way of parking, so that's something to keep in mind. It's a "seat yourself" set up. They don't serve food, but you are allowed to bring in outside food. They also have food trucks outside fairly often. I'd say they have about 12 different beers on top, but they do sell cans and if there's one that you want that's not on tap, they will do a "can pour" for you. They also offer flights. The beer itself was pretty good. They were a couple that we tried that didn't quite hit the mark for us in terms of depth, but still very drinkable. Nice range of ABV as well. The staff was pretty friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was warm & it was a little loud, but not bad considering it's a brewery. Prices on par for other breweries in the area. And I noticed that they to offer some events such as trivia and live music. There is a calendar on their website that breaks this down for you. Overall, a nice find. We will be back!

After enjoying hiking in the area we came here and enjoyed the pulled pork poutine, wiener…read moreschnitzel and beers! While their IPA was pretty average, the strawberry rhubarb brew was great! The schnitzel was nicely prepared with a side salad that was tasty and a decent mustard. The poutine fries were nicely done and fresh, but IMO, there was a bit too much gravy and not enough cheese curds on the poutine. That didn't stop us from devouring the whole thing though, it definitely was not bad. Ambience is chill with music playing at a lower volume. Mostly couples and small, chill groups in the spot. There was one small group with a baby but the baby was not overly loud or disruptive. Outdoor seating is available but we opted to be inside with the AC. Bartender seemed to be the only employee working both the tables and the bar and a little overwhelmed, so service was a bit slow. Would definitely stop back here and highly recommend the strawberry rhubarb brew! Clean, gender neutral restrooms.

Went here on a whim to attend the book fair hosted by a local bookstore here in their event space…read more I cant lie this book fair was pretty lackluster and overpriced, so we decided to grab food and drinks since we were already there anyways. The brewery was very busy and the line was long, with slower wait times, but the food and drinks were worth it. The buffalo chicken tenders were great quality, not overly spicy or salty, and came with a chunky, house-made blue cheese dressing. The bacon cheesy fries were a standout. The beer cheese was perfectly smooth and flavorful, topped with crumbled bacon and thinly sliced purple onion, which was surprisingly really good. I also tried the pomegranate Down East cider, a flavor I hadn't seen anywhere else, and it was my favorite I've had so far. Atmosphere was decent but on the smaller side. Overall a good experience, though not somewhere I'd go out of my way to return to

The space itself is impressive -- open, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed so it never feels cramped, even when it's busy. There's a warm, welcoming vibe that makes it just as easy to hang out with friends as it is to settle in for a quiet pint. The beer selection is genuinely outstanding. Whether you're into crisp lagers, bold IPAs, or something more experimental, there's always something worth trying, and the staff knows their stuff if you want a recommendation. There's always a wide range of styles on tap, and everything feels well‑crafted and intentional. It's the kind of place where trying a flight is almost mandatory because there are too many good options to pick just one. And the food... the pretzels are absolute must‑haves. It is soft, warm, and perfectly salted, and the bites are the ideal pairing for a flight -- simple, delicious, and exactly what you want with good beer. A great atmosphere, fantastic brews, and snacks that hit the spot. Bear Hands Brewery nails it.

This place has been on my list for a long…read moretime and when I realized where it was I thought this would be great to check out after a busy afternoon of errands along Route 1. It's located right at the entrance of an industrial area. There is a very small lot for parking but it was completely full when we visited today, so we parked along the road where a number of other cars were also parked. This seemed to be okay and the signs just requested folks not park on the grass. The entrance is set back from the street so you kind of need to go around towards the back. We saw they had a food truck, Farm to Sandwich, which although kind of pricey, was super delicious. We both got the All American Smash burger with fries. Fries were so crisp and well crafted and the burger was amazing with a great sauce reminiscent of a Big Mac. For beers, since it was our first time here, we decided to try a bit of everything with flights. Their flights are $13 for 4, 5 oz pours. I chose the Coffee Milk Stout, You are Such an Ass, Bienvenu and Justin's Jangle. We started which the You are Such an Ass IPA, which was described as a light IPA but really didn't taste like an IPA at all. We honestly thought they had poured us the wrong beer. As IPA enthusiasts, this was disappointing. The Bienvenu, which is a Red Ale with Panela (unrefined Colombian sugar cane) was infinitely better. The Coffee Milk Stout, I understand is very popular, but I thought this was average. Justin's Jangle, a Maple Praline Porter was my favorite! Really nice, complex brew! We also really enjoyed the live music from Jake Frezza, a local musician out of North Providence. He sang and played guitar and covered a diverse sampling of songs including Brittney Spears (Toxic), James Taylor and Marvin Gaye. His version of "What's Going On" was particularly excellent. I normally dread listening to live performers at breweries but this guy is actually very talented! Kudos to Ravenous for engaging such a high quality musician! Also, for a Saturday, it was not overcrowded or over run with kids. There was just one family with a super quiet baby and we noted just one dog inside. On exiting, I saw they have a nice memorial where they offer to pour a beer to a fallen service member. Very nice! Gender neutral restrooms Pinball Separate rooms make it quieter than breweries in just one big industrial space. Friendly service at the bar and no lines! Bar stools with no back, kind of uncomfortable and there seemed to be no other seating options like chairs or sofas. In summary: Highlights: Bienvenu Red Ale Justin's Jangle Jake Frezza live music Nice memorial to fallen soldiers Low Lights: You are Such an Ass IPA Barstools/ seating Would definitely stop back here again when in the area!

Visited on a Saturday afternoon and was impressed by the amount of beers they had on tap and selection of local craft options. I tasted the barbecue wings and they were solid. My only negative for them would be they charged me extra for my side of ranch sauce ($.50). But I'll say that's outweighed by how cheap the beer prices are there, so overall net positive bonus points!! it's pretty far away from where I live, but wouldn't hesitate to go there again if I was ever in the area.

Unfortunately the day has come for my first ever 1-star review…read more A few weeks ago, I arrived (so hungry) at Cady's Tavern with a group of friends (also so hungry) for a quick bite to eat. At the door, we were stopped immediately & asked "do you have tickets" with no explanation to which we answered no. We were then told that the show inside was a ticketed show & therefore we couldn't come in. We explained that we were just there for dinner. The door person said we could order food out on the patio if we insisted, accidentally hitting me in the face as she was gesturing. So we maneuvered our way through the busy bar to the patio out back to scope out the scene. There were a few available picnic tables, so my group claimed one of them as I headed to the bar. I asked the bartender "can we order food here with you?" to which she answered yes, while eyeing me up & down. I asked for a few menus & 4 glasses of water for my group. The bartender instead gave me 4 bottles of water. Ugh. Back at our picnic table, I remarked out loud to my group "do I have something on my face?" because from the moment we entered the tavern, I felt like everyone (both staff & patrons) was examining me like a bug under a microscope. We fell into hangry silence as we checked out the menu & I noticed immediately that there were no allergy markings anywhere on the menu. I can't have gluten. It makes me very sick. I'm not happy about that - believe me! One of the greatest tragedies of my life was learning that I couldn't drink beer anymore. The menu is mostly pub classics & I really wanted a burger (I saw recently that Cady's Tavern was listed on a Yelp Collection for great burgers in the state). The menu said to "advise" my server of "any food allergies" & so I returned to the bar to ask about gluten-free accommodations. I explained the situation & asked very politely if there was anything they could do so that I could have the burger. I really miss being low-maintenance, but I know (having worked in the service industry for 15 years) that major changes are happening surrounding allergy awareness & accommodations. I've had burgers on lettuce "buns," burgers without buns, burgers on gluten-free buns, & other creative modifications at the most unlikely of places. So when I politely asked the bartender if they could modify the order because of my situation, she reacted like I had asked her the most outlandish question imaginable. She looked me up & down again, let out a rude "pffft" & said, "we don't do that kind of stuff here." I said "oh, okay" & walked away. I was shocked. I relayed the interaction to my group & we decided that we had no interest in ordering food. We paid for our bottles of water (UGH!) at $2 each & made our way back through the stuffy bar & out to the (unpaved) parking lot. The feeling that Cady's Tavern gave me was really horrible. The covert judgement, the overt impudence, & the implications on food safety & allergy awareness left me with a pit in my stomach. I always try to give businesses & their employees the benefit of the doubt when things go awry, but I don't think I can do that here.

Great space Friendly staff…read moreTasty beers so far It's still a bit early in Triple Raven's time, so the "nano" in nanobrewery definitely applies - selections are few, but done well. (I had an expert-level Helles lager that hit the spot, and a DIPA that had all the requisite flora-juice people look for; a blueberry sour was also on tap.) Interestingly, Triple Raven also has partners with other offerings, so Taylor Brooke wines and cider from Stafford were available in addition to the beers. Non-alcoholic options and snacks were available too. The space is in a beautiful older building, and updated to comfortably modern inside, with spacious front area seating and a lively bar area beyond. A Sunday afternoon in February saw probably 25 patrons in the main bar leaving room for anyone who wanted a table or use of the NeoGeo arcade game(!). In warmer weather, some outdoor seating in front is available. Triple Raven took notes in opening a really solid spot - when they add a few more beers, it'll be even more intriguing as a brewery. But even if they don't, this is an enjoyable place to visit. Recommended.

There brews range from a lite lager, to NE style IPA's to a stout, something for all tastes. For food it varries, they do have snacks but the real food comes from food trucks so check the website to see who's serving it up on the day you're going, the taco truck seems to be a crowd favorite but it can vary. The setting is industrial garage, I like the look of the stainless steel vats that ferment the brews. The people who operate the place are very friendly and welcoming, the crowd can range from early 20 somethings to 60 somethings, dancing is encouraged.
