Try the meatloaf sliders! They are gorgeous! Also not many places do karaoke on Fridays so that was cool! My waitress was bad ass! Most times waitresses get sections. This poor girl was serving tables at opposite ends of the bar during March Madness and didn't slip up once while remaining pretty, damn pleasant. Think her name was Nicole. If you get her, tip her well. I did. Earned it. read more

Great place. Has the hole diner drive ins and dives feel. Definately worth the stop on my way to the airport. Food was fresh and really tasty. Had claim cakes a steak bomb and sweet potato fries. Wait staff also very friendly. As a business traveler I always appreciate that! read more

Bartenders (barmaids, cute barmaids with tight bodies and great tits) still ignore the crap out of customers. But with barmaids like these, Tavern 12 gets a pass. Service sucks, food is "eh" ... But absolutely a must go to place! Ice cold beer, huge TV screens on every wall ( won't miss any of your favorite sports). And let's not forget the awesome scenery serving the booze!! read more

Tavern 12 is my favorite spot. That Dakota is something else let me tell you! Not a bad thing to say about this establishment

Love this place...great food...great bartenders....best in the city....5 dollar apps in the day...steak quesadilla is awesome...35 c wings during games... read more

I have been here to watch many red sox, patriots and Celtics games for the wing special. They offer many different flavors of wings. they are awesome. The offer the special whenever a local sports team is playing. do not miss out on the special. read more

Very close to the airport. I ordered takeout. I ordered the wings and mozzarella sticks. The mozzarella sticks were amazing. The crust was perfect! The wings were okay. The wings tasted dry and lacked sauce. I ordered buffalo sauce and wish there was more sauce. I also asked for ranch and never got it. They also charge a take out fee which I found to be odd. read more

See all

My BF and I frequent here. I like the idea of the scratch kitchen. They have wing specials which I wish you didn't have to wait until 8pm for the special when football games are on all day Sundays. Went during the week, wasn't super busy waitress checked on us a couple times, owner took our food order wings and fries. Wings come over no fries. Waitress gives us attitude when we ask for them. So she says she'll check with kitchen. 30 minutes later were still waiting and for the fries. When we finally come out, it's a relatively small order they're we're three of us. No apology, no hey they're on us. It's the service sometimes that can kill a business and make regulars to NOT want to go back. I like the food the TVs bartenders are always pleasant it's just a turn off when you have bad service read more

An hour before Sunday NFL kickoff, the place is 100% full and the bar is double backed. All hands on deck with the staff, who actually hustle to serve the crowd. None of them are checking their SnapChat accounts. Kitchen staff working their tails off to serve a packed house. #respect read more

Stumbled upon Tavern 12 one Friday evening around 10PM after looking for a place to drink because we were staying at the Radisson. When we entered the parking lot it was packed. Oh Shoot it was Karaoke night! The security st the front ID us and then we took a lap around the bar searching for a place to sit. There were some available high tops near the "stage" so we settled there. We asked the waitress for food menus because we were very hungry. The menu was lengthy. The food was tasted like bar food, it did the job. The drinks came out and they were ok. A little suspicious that the alcohol we named may not have been the alcohol in our drinks because we had slight headaches upon leaving, unless it was from the Karaoke. I was extremely entertained by the Karaoke though and I can tell that a lot of the patrons were regulars and took Karaoke very seriously. Oh there was a fight! Ha! Just when we forgot we were at a pub! At first I thought they were dancing to the song being performed until I saw security get in the mix. After that we decided it was time to go. read more

I would like to start by saying " The food here is excellent and service is even better. The atmosphere is happy and accommodating. Great specials on drinks, beer and food. The place is always clean! The staff and its owner are always seen helping each other to make sure the customers are getting all their needs met. The TV's are amazing, you have no problem watching your favorite game. Not to mention the music is always great, And all those girls work hard with a smile and song!! I recommend Tavern 12 it will surely become your favorite neighborhood bar and restaurant. Thank you Tavern 12 Staff :) read more

I got really excited when my friend invited me to this bar on a Saturday night and I realized they had a Cuban on their menu. I didn't get to go that night but I did go today on a Early Friday afternoon. The place was pretty empty, I sat at the bar and did not have to wait at all. This is the first Cuban I have tried in Rhode Island that I have actually liked. I recommend this option when visiting this bar. My friend visits this place frequently and she says all their food is good. I do wish they serve more fries. read more

Tavern 12 - Cuban with Sweet Potato fries. - American Near Me - Warwick, Rhode Island

Drinks and food were fine, but when a patron asked to change Americas funniest home movies to a baseball game, the manager comes over to change the station and asks "which one of you assholes wants the Yankee game on!?" Lol I guess I'm hoping he's the owner if not it's rude asf. And Matt d- I can assure you, you are not everywhere at once. It was not me asking about the game it was an older gentleman to my right. I'm not offended personally I don't care for either the sox or Yankees....but I promise you, I am an intelligent young man, and my hearing is in its prime.i wrote this while I was still sitting next to the older gentleman and your worker on my left and right...I heard every word very clearly...if you like I can certainly point out the worker whom addressed the patron in this manor...I am a regular at your establishment, so it's not out of my way at all. Iaminacar@gmail.com if you care msg me read more

Casual atmosphere with a great staff. Everyone is always friendly and makes for a great time. Food comes out quickly and is reasonably priced. Plus there is always something new on the specials menu. It truly is the staff which make a place special and every interaction I have had shows what fun loving and great people they are. They make it worth coming back again and again! read more

This place is AWESOME! Came here 2 nights in a row. Once with a small group and the next with our entire Hockey team. Liz was Amazing and food was just as good! Our server even remembered our drink orders from the night before. Best place we went to on this trip! read more

If I like the food, and I do. There's not much that will keep me out of a place. However, putting my money in some dickhead owner's pocket. Is one of them!! read more

I go to school in the area and have always had the best experience when being served at Tavern 12. The service is always excellent and a lot of the food is home made and absolutely delicious! The clam chowder is probably the best I've ever had. I will continue to be a regular customer here, thank you! read more

Best pull pork sandwiches in the country! Traveled the US for many years and often had pull pork different ways. Always thought Hog Wild Pit BBQ in Wichita, KS was number 1 in the country; until I had it at Tavern 12! Also the macaroni salad was great! read more

Stay far away from this place at all cost. The service is slow the food is cold. Kitchen is slow in turn around. Fries with the burger came cold then they forgot to put another thing asked for on. Mind you this wasn't even during their peak time. No one else was eating just drinking so not like they were slammed. read more

What a great find!!!! We will definitely be back!! Great food and great atmosphere!!! Price was very reasonable for the quality. We were there on a Friday and it was definitely at end of the work week celebration atmosphere!!!! Next time we're in town, we'll be there! read more

This is my local Hangout I know all the bartenders always have great service and usually a good game on

Warwick's premiere bar for a good 10 years now! Great food and service (especially if Brianna is working) Great place to watch sports! Jam packed karaoke party every Friday night! Never disappointed! read more

OK, so I visited Tavern 12 last night and was pleasantly pleased with the service, I liked the spaciousness of the bar itself. The only issue was the music, too loud, and when I added money to the juke box and paid extra to have my song play next it did not, and then I watched the bar tender help a woman put money in the juke box as well and then proceeded to go back behind the bar and then turn the juke box off due to closing. Seemed a little wrong because they knew they were closing and still took the money. I do not like these new digital juke boxes, people with phone apps can bump your song and you lose your money, not fair and really bad business if you ask me. I would love to hang and watch a ball game there tho. read more

Update, yelp is telling me the most recent update counts. Went tonight again, after many visits. Had an Excellent perfectly cooked burger, washed it down with an ice cold fresh beer. The place was busy as usual. Minimal wait for my food, zero wait for my beer. When I'm hungry, and want to go somewhere where I know the food will satisfy, without going broke or waiting forever, this is the place. The person cooking definitely knows what they are doing. Be back very soon. read more

Best Bar/pub food in the state. Have sent numerous friends there ans ALL have raved about the food. AWESOME apps - love watching NFL games here. Loyal fan! read more

I feel quite sad having to write this review, but such is life. My spouse and I in our quest to find a "homebase" bar for our Sunday football watching, decided to check out Tavern12 last week. We walked into a packed bar and stood awkwardly by the door for a little bit not sure if it was seat yourself, we should be waiting for a hostess, or what. We eventually found a table with a view of the game we were wanting to watch and settled in. A waitress appeared quickly and was very nice, I ordered a drink from the really good looking drink menu, and he had a seasonal beer. The drinks were brought promptly, our order was taken (chicken skewers & chili bacon cheese fries) and brought quickly. Our visit went well, service once we found a table went well, and we left having spent a good $60 or so. Today, we had a very different experience. When we walked in, we were again faced with no hostess or direction as to seating, but echoing our experience from previously, we went to locate our own table. We found a tall 2 person table over by the bar and asked a server which screen our teams game would be shown on to which she said she didn't know, the manager was changing them before the game. Ok...so we figured the game would be on at least one of the screens near us and my spouse went to ask a few of the other patrons around us with empty chairs if they were in use. Every single one of them was apparently. So, our waitress comes over and we order a drink each, request chairs, and ask if she knows which screen the game was on. She went to ask the manager, who was in the process of setting the TVs and we did have one near us that we were happy with. When she returned with our drinks, however, we were told that there were no chairs available. What? This is when the visit pretty much completely soured for us. So apparently this bar would rather have chairs removed from tables where paying customers should be sitting and used for purses, or placeholders for friends of people that might show up, regardless of the customers that were there now, looking to spend hours worth of time and spending money with them. We left then and headed to another bar that was FAR more welcoming even with being every bit as busy. read more

Went there with my girlfriend and some friends to chill and watch the Bruins game. It was a Saturday night so I knew it was going to be busy so, when service was slow I kinda expected it. However, the only good thing on the night was the Wings. Once we had gotten a table I which we had to wait for one that was empty for about 15 mins then we claimed it. We were told someone was sitting but was on the other side of the bar hanging with other people. We took the table anyways because they he abandoned the table. We waited for over 15 mins and no one ever came back to it. The server who was a short brunette was rude when we took the table. Apparently she doesn't want to make money. I later overheard her talking about how I just went and stole the persons table and how dear I do that. So as you imagine she got absolutely no tip from any of us, in which there was 6 of us and she could have made some god money from us. All in all this was this place last shot for me, it had been good before but the last couple times I have gone the service has been horrible and sometimes non existent. So I will never be coming again and will tell everyone I know to avoid this place which is sad cause it use to be my favorite place to get a beer and watch a game. Update to owner: 1. The waiter did not say anything about that 2. The only thing stacked was EMPTY PLATES. The food wasn't touched at all in which btw was only like 2 pieces of chicken. 3. This also doesn't excuse your wait staff to bad mouth customers thinking they can't hear you when they can. Finally I will not be coming here since the last 3 or 4 times I have been here it has been a negative experience due to service. It used to have good service but all those who worked there before are no longer there. read more

This place is still great fabulous food and staff you can tell they all enjoy working there! Was down from NH for a family event and I ate there twice in the 3 days I was here my parents ate there 3 times while in town. If you haven't been you are missing out! Order the haddock sliders they are delicious! read more

Came here with a bunch of friends for the bruins game. Great food and awesome service. Tara and Michelle were attentive and courteous. I will definetly be coming back! read more

We ended up here by accident. The place we were originally at was so packed that it was standing room only, so their loss is Tavern 12's gain. I kinda liked the atmosphere, or lack thereof. If Rhode Island allowed smoking I could somehow see the wisps of smoke filtering through the air. Anyways, it was crazy busy there, being a Friday night and all. The clientele was strangely half young business people and half blue collar people. I loved the fact they had keno, as I am a bit of a junkie, but because it was so crazy busy the two bartenders did their best, and I applaud them for that, but when you're trying to get your keno slip in it doesn't make your feel better when your numbers come up on the game you missed. Apparently they have DJ nights, Karaoke, and Trivia nights there. I think I found a new bar to hang out at before the theatre! read more

Stayed at a local hotel, as I was in the area for a concert, and wanted to grab a beer and some apps afterwards. Tavern 12 had a very inviting atmosphere, excellent live music and AWESOME wings! I would make the trip when I am in the providence area for the wings alone. Good size wings and great taste! Seems like a very fun place and I will definitely come back when I am in the area! read more

I met my fiance there almost 4 years a go now. It's a friendly all around "cheers" bar where they really take the chance to get to know you. Love the atmosphere, the bartenders, and the food. read more

We went to Tavern12 for lunch and it was awesome! The food was excellent, the service of was perfect and everything was so clean (which is so Important to me!). I will definitely be going back with my husband on football Sunday! read more

Tavern 12 is by far one of the best places to go in the area if you're looking for a quick bite to eat, night out, or to catch a game. The bartenders, staff and owner are always friendly and welcoming. The menu has something for everyone. I enjoy there burgers and wings the most (ps AWESOME game time wing specials!) if your looking for a place to watch a football game or sports game, I certainly would choose Tavern 12. No matter where your sitting, there's a TV in every direction!! read more

For a bar/grille it's quite good and relaxing. The bartenders are always sweet and professional, and they don't look like hookers. The service is quick and precise just the way I like it! It a nice neighborhood bar that includes karaoke and normal nights with just the games on. read more

So much fun love the games I watch there all the time great food n drinks also. I will for sure continue to tavern 12 it up for long time

Awesome, don't let looks fool you. The new owner and chef Matt really has elevated barfood to a whole new level. Had the Thai Chicken Sandwitch and it was great. Lots of craft beers. Not a real noisy sports bar, but mellow, great classic rock in the background and a whole lot of varied sports on the tv's in the place. Yet you can still carry on a conversation without yelling. Owner Matt came out and spent time with the customers and asked for opinions on the food, I offered one and he advised he might give it a try. I will go back next time I am in RI. read more

I have a customer in Cranston and stay at hotels close to the airport. I have had multiple stays here in Warwick by the airport. I've been to almost all the local bar/grills here. This one gets my vote by a landslide. The food is good. It's not amazing but for the type of place you're in it's just what you're asking for. It has a great beer selection. Plenty of liquor options. TV's with anything you're looking for. I wanted to watch a Michigan football game years ago and it was no problem getting it on a tv for me. What I like and what brings me back to a place is the personal touch a place offers. It's starts with management and trickles down from there. You're greeted with big smiles and warm welcomes from the time you walk in till you hit the door on your way out. I always recommend this place to my coworkers when they are staying in the area. Hats off to you Matt, this is a great place. I look forward to visiting it every time I'm in town. read more

Tavern 12 is definitely a "hole in the wall" kind of place. I stopped in after a flight from Detroit to catch up on some games and was pleasantly surprised. Not much to look at from the outside, but as they say on that whole book and cover thing.., Service was great, food even better, cold beers, and very accommodating to what so wanted to watch. Many more places to explore in Rhode Island, but if you are near the airport, a good option for sure. read more

I know you cannot please everyone, I cannot believe how some people are like spoiled rotten brats and make the most insane comments, not to mention they cannot even spell correctly, with that said: I am rather new to Tavern 12, I had no idea how fantastic this place was. I drive by everyday to and from work and never gave it a second thought. I want to kick myself for that. The food is superb! The staff work so hard, I see that. I don't know what it is about this place, but the majority of the customers are so cool also. This is a place that surprises you if you have never been. I would never go into a bar alone being a woman, however, I have done that at Tavern 12, I've never done that in my life at any place. Great job to all that work so hard there! I love this place. read more
