If you're going to go to a dive bar, this is the one. It's not really a dive bar, well, OK it is, but it's friendly (and dog-friendly) the drinks are cheap, and the juke box is the. best. ever.

This is why I love Providence. What other city has a mom and pop bar right on the water? Sit on the deck and watch the sunset. Go ahead and have a burger: they're handmade and grilled on a Weber. $5!

One of the reasons I moved here was RISD. I'm not affiliated with it, but I knew it had to add so much to the community just by being here. And it does. Go to the Museum and see for yourself.
