Inside

It's been a while since my last visit and still a great time! Once you figure out their password (check out their instagram weekly), you're in for a cool spot. Between the customs drinks, Star Wars themed cups or other drinks you are transported to a little cantina. Some little food options as well from knead or pizza j. Check out some of the games too they have and if not try to get a Polaroid pic on the wall! Bartender was great, funny and provided some great recs as well.

Unique speakeasy that serves great cocktails. The servers are friendly. I like the creative drinks and the presentation. This bar has a laidback neighborhood feel to it.

Super cool little spot with a wacky secret entry process. Really good drinks and donuts. The bartenders sure know what they're doing. Stop by! This place can't disappoint.

Is there a better way to wrap up your Friday night than enjoying cocktails and knead donuts at a speakeasy? Probably not. I used to visit when it was Far West, and I'm impressed with what Brian and Morgan have transformed it into. The atmosphere is dark, cozy, and intimate, with a solid selection of cocktails. They offer weekly specials, and you need a password to enter. We tried the "One More Wave" and "No Shirt No Shoes Not Famous." The former had a nice balance and a pleasant passionfruit liqueur flavor, while the latter was delicious but a bit stronger than expected. Overall, it's a fantastic cocktail bar and a hidden gem in Providence. It may not be ideal for large groups, but perhaps that's part of its charm.

One more wave

This was such a cozy, late night, chill place~ check in for passwords and check out videos to figure out the location because this is a great Speakeasybar Had a girls night to just catch up, and try the drinks. Pricy but worth the price because the drinks were delicious. I ordered On The Wave, and a Negroni variation from the special week menu~ also grabbed a delicious knead donut~ yes it's on the menu~ Service can be busy, so be patient and be ready to wait~ but the server will try his best to get to you and even go to your table~ very considerate and acknowledged that there's a wait and apologizes~ highly appreciate~ I see myself coming back because it was great vibe, service and drinks for another lovely chill girls night

Bartender's Choice ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Okay, fine. juniper is THE cocktail bar. I refuse to gatekeep, so here I am with my overdue review. This space has served a few iconic cocktail bars in the past, & juniper has done right by its legacy. There is a sad tendency for modern speakeasies to veer towards the pretentious, but not juniper. The operation is firmly grounded by a deep love & understanding of Providence, the industry, & the art of not taking anything too seriously. Brian & Morgan, the two man team responsible for this speakeasy, have curated a creative & welcoming space by simply being themselves & having fun. The cocktail list rotates frequently, & generally has something for every taste palette - whether you drink "old man drinks" like myself, or "fun frilly drinks" like my partner. There is a specific system & password involved in getting in to juniper, but I won't give away any more. This is where I draw the line, to pay homage to the speakeasy concept.

I'm writing this for one simple reason, Yelp now has a list of top new spots to have a drink in Providence. I haven't any doubt that juniper should be on the top of that list. Brian Oakley of Julian's and Pizza J, and Morgan Snyder of Buttonwoods Brewery, have joined forces for the re-opening of the speakeasy bar in the Rooms & Works building on the West Side of Providence. The space formerly known as Far West, and later as High Dive. The new bar has been running in soft open/trial period for the month of August and it's a smashing good effort. Still has all the cool character the small industrial space is imbued with, and a smart and sharp cocktail menu with more than a few nods to the past. First of which is an homage to the BAG&T that Far West made famous. As I understand it, the new owners reached out to Michele and Luke for their blessings, and with a sip of the minty concoction it's almost like they never left. Add in a still fresh from the oven donut from Knead if you're lucky, or a RI slice from Pizza J, a really well made Daiquiri, or one of the most delicious MaiTai I've had in many years, this spot is a Gem. A+ and totally worth trying to find the secret password to get in during the limited hours it's open. See you there.

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!

I recently hosted a baby shower at the Jake and wanted to tell anyone planning on hosting an event…read morethat The Jake is the perfect venue! 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!

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.

What an amazing bar with an incredible atmosphere! The bartenders truly make this place deserve…read more7,273,738,382,838 stars.
