Sitting here now watching the nba playoffs. I ordered the chicharrones and pastelitos and my friends, I haven't had a chicharrone this good since I was in Puerto Rico. Everything is amazing. Also, Willow is a breath of fresh air behind the bar. Her energy is amazing. Definitely give her a raise! 10/10 read more

Pub 594 - Chicharrones and pastelitos - Pubs Near Me - Cranston, Rhode Island

Came through and stopped at pub594. Good atmosphere, great service and great food. Got a burger and some lemon pepper wings. Will be back ! read more

I was surprised at how huge and meaty the wings are here. They were absolutely delicious. We got the fries and empanadas too which slapped. If you choose to sit at the bar they have these cool comfy office chairs. My drink was very strong. The music choices were great and overall it was a fun pub night. The 2 bartenders were so great and attentive. I recommend even if you're not in the mood to sit and dine in, to just get a takeout order of the wings alone cause WOW read more

Ok here are a some quick facts about the bar Pub 594 (formerly know as Billy's Frosted Mug): -High back, leather computer chairs surround the L shaped bar. -One pool table -Touch tunes. (It can be used like a jukebox or music can be played from your device of vice, you know... iPhone/Droid/Galaxy etc etc as long as you DL the app) -Nifty chalk board. Clearly meant to keep track of pool games but more used for graffiti or to scribe some random ball busting message of sorts. -Plenty of TV's. -Myriad of Sports memorabilia decorate the space on the walls. (Particularly Boston teams, Amen to that) -Some booth seating along with High top tables. Whilst breaking during a game of pool, the cue flew off of the table. (Prob 'cause i smash it so damn hard) Well, the ball rolled its sorry behind next to the ladies bathroom. Well the door happened to be closing and I noticed that the women have a raised platform that the stalls sit atop of... Hmm I thought, "Thats weird AF" Anyways, the food is typical bar type food. Some interesting menu items though: ~Stuffed Quahogs ~Thin crust pizza The chicken tenders are clearly grade A. The grilled chicken on salad is good too, if you prefer a healthier option. Now, previous reviews of this place were interesting to read. That whole, "its the opposite of cheers" review is bogus. I frequent the place enough to know. I would describe the place as the same as Cheers as a matter of fact. That woman who wrote that prob is strange looking and more than likely did something weird to earn getting "stared down." I mean lets be real, right?! Also, the guy who mentioned "there was lots of Journey" in his review. That must of been a one time thing, as the patrons that frequent actually have a current sense of music and do not need to revert back to outplayed, corny, feel-good music of yesterday. This animal has two faces though... Patron, beware! Ok, so during the day there are the typical local regulars. Around retiree age, as you would expect. But at night... This when the freaks be coming out. Walkn with swagger and rocking their undercuts. Like wild dogs fighting for a piece of meat, the pool playing heathens strive to keep track of "who's up next??" This place has a sports bar kinda vibe. Like the river meeting an ocean, the crowd is a blend of different folks. I find it to be rather interesting to see what kind of thots show up on a weekend evening. It is like catching pokemon really... You just gotta have the balls. The staff is friendly. Just dont go creepn on the pretty baristas at closing time. Guys do this and its just weird AF. Overall, good place to catch a game. Shoot some pool with some players of legendary talent. Catch a bite. Or throw ya dollas at Keno. So, go on in and grab a brew bruh! read more

Nice laid back place where you can watch a game, have a cheap meal or drink, an chat with friends. Karaoke nights an Superbowl parties are a highlight. read more

Laidback atmosphere, the chairs at the bar are comfortable , staff are very friendly , prices are cheap, great food , and not too pack where you can't find a seat. read more

Pub 594 - a man with glasses and a cap smiling - Pubs Near Me - Cranston, Rhode Island

Every time I go to pub 594 I get to play whatever music I want, and get with the friendly bartenders. the nachos are reasonably priced and so satisfying! read more

Who knew? Great friendly bar with great drink deals. The staff is hospitable and I found myself hanging around for a couple of hours. 2 dollar drafts and office chairs at the bar. The patrons let me play the music I like without skipping songs. Stop in and have a beer, look for Rose the bartender, she's wonderful. Thanks read more

Big ups to the staff, but a thumbs down to almost everything else. It's like the opposite of Cheers, or, "Where everybody knows each other's name, and don't really want to know yours" Since I'm sort of near it, and like a no frills cheap frosty beverage on occasion, I have been here twice in the last year. Both times I felt uncomfortable almost exclusively from the regulars. The demographic is loud, angry, middle aged sports fanatic. Those loungey chairs at the bar have got to go..folks act waaaay too at home in them. I thought 9 tvs blaring different games was a little excessive in a space that might be 2000 square feet. Overall, service and prices were great, space could use a little cleaning/updating, maybe a bouncer, and definitely a butt can outside. read more

This is a great place to grab a quick and cheap drink. Yes the bar is huge and yes they have computer chairs which is awesome! Depending on what day you come is the crowd you'll encounter, but I previously bartended here and have never had an issue. ALL the bartenders here are amazing and the regulars are great too! I have no complaints. Big ups to Tony for doing his best to turn this place around! Heather is great manager/bartender and Andrew & Katie are great bartenders as well! read more

Journey. Lots and lots of Journey. Everything else was a blur. And not because I was slugging them back. This is a local's bar with low ceilings and pool tables. Expect stare-downs as you cozy a spot up at the bar, lined with black, pleather, high-backed office chairs, with a complete lack of irony. Great place to relive the glory days. And I mean that sincerely, without a shred of pompousness. Hold on to that feeelayayang, streetlights people ohh oh ohhhhh. That was meant with full pompousity. read more

There is really nothing special about this place - but at the same time I can't find many things wrong with it either. its a smaller place, with a handful of seats at the bar, and a few tables. Beers are cheap - under $3 for domestic drafts. The food is spotty - there is a small bar menu, most of which they won't have on any given night. The crowd is small and local, and usually entertaining. One thing I do take issue with is the music situation. There is a jukebox - and it is something like $1 or $1.50 per song. Uncalled for! read more

Why do all of the local dive bars smell like urinal cakes? The bar tenders was too busy chatting with his buddies and could care less about anyone else at the bar. I was looking for somewhere to watch the Bruins and have a few beers. read more

Big plus is if your disable theres a ramp up too the bar Bathroom might b an issue Alot of good snack food The bar has three tv 's Bartender's are great Alot of friendly people too meet read more

Once known as "Billys" Frosted Mug, what is now known as just "the Frosted Mug" remains one of Cranstons most notorious pubs. I noticed they have received very little love here on Yelp, so I thought they deserved a more current review. They have gone through tremendous renovations since the last review was written. It's a really great place to grab a drink with co-workers after a stressful work day. What they are probably most well known for is their elevated bar with rolling computer chairs. This is definitely something you probably won't see elsewhere else in RI, or maybe any state. The bartenders here are all great and really don't hold back on much. They will swear at you and b.s. with you until the cows come home. Food-wise, the menu is standard American pub-fare at very inexpensive prices, which means: more $ for drinks. The french fries here are incredible. It's something about the seasoning combined with the slurping of ice cold Narragansett that just does it every time. The grilled cheese is usually my standby, but if you want something fancy they have all kinds of burgers (and veggie burgers if you ask). On a standard night at the Frosted Mug you will here everything from Iron Maiden to Wu-tang blasting out of the jukebox. There is often a very entertaining mix of old-timers and a younger Cranston crowd competing for airtime. I love this place for so many reasons, but mainly these: 1) there are no pretentious attitudes here. You can show up in your mechanics uniform, your smelly gym clothes, or a suit and tie- no one cares. 2) It's really close to my house, so I can walk home if I indulge in too many "frosty mugs" 3) It's a great place to drink in the middle of the day... not that you or I would ever do that. read more

Gross, if you feel like fighting go, there are enough punks that hang there to go after. Seedy crowd not like the recent past, the chairs are disgusting and need to be replaced, the food is vomit. There are plent of places very close to wet your whistle and not catch chlamydia. read more

It's a neighborhood bar with bar food and cheap beer. A couple pool tables, a dartboard, big screen TVs and a jukebox. The locals that come here are a mix of blue collar types and young kids. Definitely a fun lively atmosphere where everyone is welcome and you won't feel uncomfortable sitting in the booth with a pack of friends drinking a pitcher of Coors. Unless you have a problem with ripped seat cushions, you elitist. read more

New management. Menu changed. Its a bit cheaper but much more limited and pretty much way less in quality. They don't have good food specials anymore. The nice and friendly bartenders left too. They seem to be catering to a cheaper more rowdy crowd. I've been a couple times since they've changed over and probably won't go back anymore. read more

Tough place to be, especially on Friday or Saturday night . Witnessed fights several times . I always felt like a gang war would break out. Some pretty women go there on occasion , however it is not worth the risk . read more

um....ew. so I read the reviews, and figured it was worth a try. wrong. we got nachos as an app. GROSS. cheeze wiz all up in the chips. too much to even eat/enjoy. hubby got the chicken sandwich that was supposed to come with provolone and marinara. he got a plain chicken sandwich, no cheese or sauce, with bacon. I got a grilled cheese because there was nothing else with the dinner special that I would be able to eat (being a vegetarian). hubby got the 2.25 canned drink special. I got malibu and cranberry....very light on the malibu. very very light. when we sat down, there was no waitress or acknowledgement, until we hit up the bartender for attention. we actually had to ask for a cloth to clean our own table, as there was food and yuck from the previous person. I am all for a dive bar. but it needs to be fun, with personable bar tenders, fun patrons, etc. this is a no fun dive. one and done. I have no need to go back. again, ew. read more

Food deals all week. Sunday's half price wins. Computer chairs at te bar is sweet. Def a local bar but good people. I was skeptic at first. But glad I came in. I'll be returning for sure. read more

I found myself here recently when the Patriots were on the NFL Network, because I don't have the NFL Network anymore at home. Somehow I just never made it here before even though I live close by. Maybe it was the police cruiser I often saw outside that dissuaded me? I could never tell if they always just happened to stop a car in front of the Frosted Mug or if they were there because of goings on inside! This place is kind of weird. It's fairly large for a divey bar. The bar is lower than normal bar height, and instead of stools there are high backed computer (recliner) chairs. The floor is built up so that the bartender is lower than you. There are a few pool tables, a row of regular tables and chairs and a row of booths. There are several tvs on every wall. Décor is unmemorable and may have included 1970s paneling or something else dated. There are large windows onto Reservoir Ave but they're deeply tinted. They had $2 meatball sandwiches and cheap wings, but I was a little leery of trying the food. I stuck to beer. The selection was about what you would expect, and the prices were cheap. Service was friendly enough. That's my takeaway - a really cheap place to watch a game, which I definitely appreciated - but I can't imagine wanting to go there regularly, really. It's on the "little bit tacky, little bit dive-y" side, but not so much that you feel remotely unsafe - or remotely hip. It's like your parents musty basement bar.. read more

Bartender was nice but waited forwver for my drink but when i FINALLY got it, it was a miniscule amount of liquor and charged me FULL PRICE. Shocked and appalled is an understatement. Never coming back. read more

Horrible uncleanly atmosphere with rude bartenders, everything looks dirty and the food is not up to par.

i just called to ask a question about something....i got a person that sounded high or half asleep answering the phone....hello...???...thats how she answered...not frosted mug or a business name of any kind...then i asked if this was billy's frosted mug...she seemed like she did not know....um uhhhhhh...its was formally....so i asked what is it now...???...oh ummmmmmm....594 you can google it she told me.....wow...& and i mean wow...!!!!!! read more

A great bar with great service, food, and drinks. Plenty of tvs for sports fans, pool tables, a juke box, and a very diverse crowd. The Mug is a very comfortable place to pregame, or spend the whole evening. SOme of the most comfortable bar chairs you will ever sit in. read more

This place used to be cool. Now the bartenders are inexperienced, the food is awful and the service is the worst. Oh billy, where are you?????? Please come back and restore this dump. read more

4 rated for what it is - the neighborhood watering hole. Drinks are cheap, food is decent, service is pleasant, and bar games are available.

Will not return. the place was not clean, the crowd was terrible. Seemed like a local drinking hole. The crowd seemed to be difficult to control with all the yelling and arguing. Bathrooms were filthy. Food-below what you would expect in a bar. The prices were cheap, that was about the only good thing about this bar. read more

I only went here because the dude in the pic looked all sophisticated and I like dive bars. Priced accordingly and exactly what I expected.
