This is a hidden jewel in Downtown Providence. The food menu is wide ranging and very high quality for a typical sports bar atmosphere. Servers are outstanding! Great place to host an office party or just catch the big game ! Navigating the lobby off Dorrance Street is a challenge for first timers but once you are in you will love this place in the basement ! read more

Huge bar feel. Lots of wood everywhere. Open area in back for bands, groups, etc. Set up for large groups. Our server was just great. Clearly knew his stuff. Very friendly. Interesting guy. Food: was not expecting much, but was surprisingly good. Great salads. Good burgers. Interesting burger between 2 grilled cheese sandwiches. Typical above average pub fare. Place was pretty busy, with the neighboring pubs being mostly empty, so that says something. 3.5 stars rounded up to 4. read more

Not quite sure how to rate this place. To start off when we walked down the hostess didn't pay any mind to us and kept talking to their co worker. After getting her attention and getting sat. They had inappropriate music playing over the speakers and annoying lights that kept blinding me and my friends. I expect when we go and dine in a nice place and paying for an over priced menu not to be sitting in a strip club setting. Our server was very nice(the only good thing about the experience). We had ordered a couple of burgers(medium well) and they came out both very pink on the inside. We were later met by the manger and he was nice but would not stop talking and we just wanted to enjoy our food. Then we finally got our bill and to me and my friends surprise our whole meal was on the house. From our appetizers and entrees to our multiple cocktails that we ordered (almost $120 tab). We felt so bad for our server but we left a nice cash tip behind for her. Like I said the experience was very odd but would not recommend considering the food was mediocre and seems very clear that management doesn't know what they are doing. read more

Brand new bar and restaurant right in the heart of downtown Providence! My husband and I enjoyed drinks and apps here and service and quality were both excellent. Amir was helpful and an excellent server. Can't wait to come back and visit again! The tequila and pear drink was unique and delicious. read more

Great atmosphere with many TVs and attentive bartenders. As far as bars in downtown Providence this place is true pub and low key hang. We ordered wings, pitchers of beer, burgers, dip, seltzer, and craft beers. All bueno. Bartenders were the best! Kimberly slayed. Amazing service and she was Johnny-on-the-spot: refill-done. More wings-check. You da best! read more

We went to watch the hockey game, and the staff accommodated us very well and gave us great service, drinks and food!

G pub is amazing. Beautiful bar and fun games and arcade. They have a pool table as well. BUT, the food is amazing. Id recommend the mushroom burger (swap with impossible patty for the health conscious) or the chicken sandwich. Lastly, they have THE BEST, fries in Providence. read more

LOVED. THIS. PLACE. We came here for dinner during my bachelorette weekend and it was the best pub food and service I've literally ever had. Mary was our server, and she was SO kind, attentive, and patient (we were so indecisive on what to order because everything looked so good!) I will definitely return when I am in the area again! We had the best experience ever, and I felt really special when Mary brought us out a complimentary champagne toast at the end. Mary is a true gem and you are very lucky to have her! Thank you for such a wonderful and fun experience! read more

Cindy was great! Food and drinks were amazing! I got the short ribs and it was so delicious! Come here and ask for Cindy!

Have always liked this place but went there for a lunch with a bunch of friends and their kids this weekend and it exceeded their usual high level of service. Our waitress was marleney and wow just fantastic. She was ready with things we needed before we could ask for them was super accommodating with the young kids and was great with the older kids. Then at the end she made an amazing espresso martini which just topped off the fantastic day and meal we had there. read more

Went to g pub on a whim for my birthday and couldn't be happier with the experience! The food was solid but what really made it so great was our server, Claudia. She truly went above and beyond, and was so friendly and thoughtful. Overall has a really great time! read more

I love this place... second time there and both Kimberly and Cade remembered us... It was like seeing old friends. Espresso martini is the best, don't leave without one! read more

Kimberly & Cage are warm, welcoming and make a mean espresso martini. Our go to spot when we are visiting. A go to spot! Don't forget to have a G shot! read more

Outstanding service--La Shawn was extremely friendly and warm. Great pub food. Would definitely go back... especially to see La Shawn

Chill vibes! I came in here on a Wednesday, but the Celtic were playing Toronto so there was a bit of a crowd. Nobody got too rowdy, and it was all friendly vibes inside, I enjoyed it. The nachos were SO good, and HUGE. I would definitely recommend for two people who are going to be talking or relaxing, because it was just so large! The ingredients seemed so fresh, too. The bartenders were great! So attentive, yet not overbearing or annoying. They poured amazing drinks, and I could have stayed all night. But we all know closing time... And I stayed all the way until the last moment. Great time, and I would love to be back! read more

Working downcity occasionally has given me an opportunity to discover some little, out of the way places. My car is in hock, having paid for the day, so I find places within walking distance. Because the weather has been so hot & humid, I try not to venture far - or risk returning for the afternoon session wilted. On this day, I found the G Pub. It is located on a little side street - more like an ally, really. From the exterior, you might pass by without noticing. Thru the large, heavy doors, you descend to the basement in heavy gage, industrial like stairs. The interior is a pleasing surprise of dark wood, high ceilings and heavy, pine tables and booths. I was greeted immediately and chose a booth. The menu held some interesting options and I was torn between the Fish Po'Boy and the BLT. The waitress, Nury, was helpful and provided great descriptions of each. I decided to try the BLT and was not sorry. The grilled multigrain bread was amazing. The thickly sliced peppered bacon was really good, too. But the star of the show was the nice slice of fried green tomato! It was lathered with an avocado cream and fresh arugula. Delicious! The fries were generous but a bit too salty for my taste. I managed to eat most of them, just the same. The place has a cool vibe, even on a slow weekday (I was there just as they opened for lunch). I wouldn't hesitate to return and try the fish sandwich!!! read more

found ourselves here during the rush following a POAC show, our server Trevor was incredible, then to find out it was only his third day, mind blowing. very short staffed for the amount of business but a great crew working as a great team. large beer selections, lively atmosphere, onion truffle dip was amazing. we will be back, looking forward to checking out the rooftop. read more

Great food, great service. The fried pickles and the "Grow a Pear" spicy margarita are a fav!

LeSaun (sp?), our server, was outstanding. Great comfort food and cool atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit.

Danny is the literal best! After a failed attempt at moonshine alley(the worst service ever ) we had the best time with Danny! The food was amazing and the drinks were better! Even went out of his way to add some extra razzle dazzle for my friends bday! I 10/10 recommend read more

La Shawn B was an amazing waitress!!!! Food was good. Would recommend the place is very cool and great ambiance. Waitress deserves a raise! read more

Lots of things going on in this bar! There was a mix of a fun crowd where some were dancing, some out with large groups, and even a guy eating by himself with a laptop in front of him. The music was great and it was not too loud that you had to scream for your friends to hear you. However, we were pretty disappointed in the portion relative to the price of the food. I ordered the fish taco and fish and chips with a draft of stella. Fish tacos were delicious but the fish and chips had the smallest piece of fish!! It was also not very crispy... we replaced regular fries with the gravy fries with truffle oil and those were pretty good. I think the good exceeded the bad overall but fish and chips was a deal breaker for us. read more

I love that g pub is so close to so much. I came down with a few of my girlfriends for a girls night fairly early 7pm on a Wednesday and the place was almost bare. Slowly more the of the professional crowd came in but not too many. They have a big menu with tons of stuff I would love to try. I settled on the shrimp Po Boy and was not disappointed. The bun was fluffy, sauce was spicy, and shrimp were fried perfectly. I wouldn't have been upset if there were more shrimp but at ey what can ya do. None of my girlfriends had any complaints about their dishes. The beer selection was decent and pretty dang good priced. Our server was very friendly and accommodating to any of our needs. read more

Nice downstairs pub right across from the Arcade in Providence. Friendly bartender with a large drink menu and beers on tap. They do have a food menu, but we only had drinks. I highly recommend the Autocrat (this is not your Mom's coffee milk) and a G Tea. The G Tea is a nice take on a Jack honey with tea and lemonade. read more

Great design for the space, the furnishings are nice, the trivia and karaoke are fun, lots of beer selections, very nice service.... but the food. I don't know if I've just gotten unlucky, but I've had mostly bleh so-so food in multiple visits, and personally, I think the cost needs to come down or the goodness needs to go up to justify what I'm paying here. I do like a lot about G Pub--and I'll keep giving it a shot b/c it's got so much going for it--but the kitchen needs to step it up. There's too many great restaurants and potential J&W star chefs in the making in this town to not have good food, all the time, no exceptions. read more

Our experience at G Pub was okay! The salad special (grilled chicken, citrus dressing) was good but a bit too salty. It also had some unexpected additions: beets, purple potatoes, sauerkraut, off color carrots). The grilled chicken was excellent, though. We loved the hand-cut french fries. They were excellent when paired with their house BBQ sauce. The edamame was good, but a little too spicy. There were a couple strange things that occurred - my friend found chewed up gum on her knife, which they of course apologized for and replaced. Then my husband found another piece of chewed up gum on his napkin! Very strange and gross. Not very appetizing right off the bat for trying a new place! But, the manager came out and offered us free desserts. The dessert options were delicious. The brownies were a bit too hard, but the ganache and homemade marshmallows were tasty. One of the desserts called "white trash truffle" had a fun presentation of layered brownie and whipped cream and toffee in a mason jar! Loved this idea! Overall, it was a fun atmosphere and we heard such great things about their menu and dinner options, and for the most part it was okay! We will definitely give it another chance. read more

Updated Menu = Updated review I have been for lunch twice since the new menu and have tried two new options. I was blown away by the new fish sandwich, first off it's NOT Cod or Haddock with an inch of batter, it's a delicious thick piece of Snapper with a light crust made from tortilla. Super juicy and super crunchy, topped with avocado and a spicy mayo. You can't go wrong! There are many new items and if you haven't been in awhile now is a good time to go again. read more

This place looks great with a great ambiance and seating and looks like a comfy tavern at one of the ski resorts. Food and service is similar to any bar, nothing out of the ordinary and the taste is A ok too. Great selection of beers and limited cocktail list. They have pool tables too. Overall great place to come if you re meeting up with friends / family for a couple of beers while watching a game although has lot of potential to be much more, better though if you come here with lower expectations. read more

Fantastic food and atmosphere!! Service is top notch!! (Thank you Claudia and Rene!!) Crispy Brussels Sprouts were wonderful! Providence GPub has been a longtime favorite before PPAC. Can't wait to return! read more

Came here a couple of weeks ago and had some of the worst service In a while. We were a party of 6 and ordered 3 appetizers to share amongst us. We ended up ordering calamari, nachos, and ceviche. Now when the appetizers came in, we instantly saw the ceviche was too small to share. There were three little sad chips with ceviche on top ( see picture included) and clearly not enough to go around. We did not even attempt to eat the dish and called the waitress over so we could return it to the kitchen since it wasn't shareable. That is when we got a bad attitude from the waitress (can't remember her name). She said and I quote, " I've never had complaints about this dish everyone loves it." I told her that the ceviche was clearly not enough to for all of us to share since there were only 3 chips on the plate and rather than eating it and complaining we would prefer to return the dish. She then rudely tried to correct me saying, "just so you know those are plantains." And in my head I was thinking doesn't matter what it is, there is only 3 of them. We quickly finished the rest of what we ordered and promptly left. Would have stayed longer and maybe ordered something else but the attitude was definitely not appreciated over a dish that we did not even eat. read more

G Pub has been opened for almost a year now and we decided to give it a try. Four of us went for dinner and these are our thoughts regarding what we had... Nachos: 3/10 Cheese sauce was processed, not tasty, chips were not brown, bland. Home made chips: 9/10. Crispy, with the right amount of salt, nice dipping sauce, too bad the serving size is so small. Fried Calamari: 2/10 Not crispy. Batter was bland and tasteless. We could not finish it, we left many pieces un-eaten. Alaska Cobb Salad: 7/10 The greens were fresh. I asked to get a seared salmon instead of the sour cream salmon and it was very good. I would get this salad again. Overall, a great spot for playing pool, karaoke, shuffle board, trivia. Food needs to be improved. read more

Perhaps it was the time of day that led to my mixed feelings and subsequent, average rating here. From the wind-swept shadows of Orange Street, into the bowels of the Providence Gas Building for what would become a late lunch with a friend at what appeared to be shift change. The place was empty (see panoramic photo from yours truly) and the service was ok - neither pushy nor attentive nor particularly interested. Again, late arriving diners have this kind of affect on the dynamic. The space itself is a sight to behold. No photos in the current collection have yet done G Pub the justice it deserves. The dining area, bar and adjacent gaming space are all clean, well maintained and fresh looking, despite the impositions from heavily industrial features. And the rest area (I can only speak to the men's room) smelled amazing. I'm uncertain what is weirder, the fact that it smells so nice in there or that I decided to mention it here. Either way, it's like a citrus and apple blossom explosion for your nostrils. Quite the pleasant surprise. On the vedge-stead, the offerings are just above slim-to-none. It was nice to see that any burger can be made with a vege-cake. Despite this well-intentioned vegetarian after thought, this is where I took issue. What should very well be shining staples, just weren't very good. My plain veggie burger literally fell apart right as I took my first bite. Omnivores, please leave me alone, my weirdo sandwich is not supposed to do that and no, I will not order the real thing just because "animals are delicious". The cake itself was mealy and left me wanting more to chew. The side of handcut fries (everything is a la carte) were limp and unimpressive. The major disappointment however was in the pickle. This sorry wedge, positioned alongside the main course on the slick-looking cast-iron flatware, was B-L-A-N-D. As my sometimes-fascinated-by-life, 37 year old DJ friend once so juvenilely put it, "So you mean to tell me a pickle is pretty much a cucumber that sits in vinegar and seasoning?". Pretty simple, right? Based upon my crunches, G Pub should let their "cucumbers sit longer, khed". I am always honest with servers. My dining partner however beat me to the "how's everything?" with the polite, to-be-expected-by-now chant of "very good" while I was inconveniently face full of slop. Yes, I finished everything. I never send back. I get it. People don't come to G Pub for the veggie burgers or the pickles, they come here to relax, order one of their fine draught craft brews and have a good time, while chowing on "normal" food. In this respect, I would have to give the place credit as is a success. It is however in the simple things that I... well, I believe I have made my point. Then again, honestly, what kind of jerks decide to go for lunch after 2:30? read more

I was here Friday and Saturday night celebrating my cousins wedding and we luckily had the same waitress as the night before. Mary was fantastic and went above and beyond to make this night special for my cousin and his now wife (bride and groom). She was personable and funny and an over all joy to be around! She always remembered what everyone was drinking and that was so impressive. She even remembered I was drinking Prosecco the night before and offered it to me when I came back Saturday night! Over all a great experience and My husband and I can't wait to come back! read more

One of the best restaurants in providence. The staff where welcoming, and had good vibes. They were attentive without being invasive. Food tasted amazing! Presentation of the plate felt upscale! The restaurant has a really nice lowkey vibe to it. I attended on Tuesday when they had some hilarious stand up comedians performing, free! Whether it's a lone night at the bar, or out with a date or friends, if you want something in an environment that's entertaining and fun, yet classy, where the food, service, and look of the restaurant are awesome, this is your place! read more

I wasn't convinced that G Pub was going to be my type of place but I'm definitely going to go back. 2 pool tables, 2 shuffleboard tables, air hockey.. I don't think that they're very strict about the times on all of the tables though.. So if you're really interested in playing pool, it might be a while. A lot of groups were using the tables but just kind of standing around near them. Anyhow, this is a cool place full of young people. Good beer list but didn't get to try the food- the burgers looked awesome. For a Saturday night it wasn't super packed either. Looking forward to coming back in the future! read more

G Pub - Shuffleboard tables! - Gastropubs Near Me - Providence, Rhode Island

A really nice cross between a gastro pub and a sports bar. The food is very tasty, and the menu has many options without being too overwhelming. They also have a decent kids menu, catering well for younger children. There is a large selection of draft and bottled beers, including the usual staples as wells as many craft beers from local breweries. They have a couple of pool tables and a fusball table for $7 an hour as well as a pay per play air hockey. There's also three karaoke rooms available to hire for $50 an hour. Service is very friendly, if occasionally slow. We were there on a quiet Thursday night, but still waited a long time for our initial round of drinks. All in all, I was happy with my visit, and said to my wife I would love a bar like this within walking distance of where I live. read more
