⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We visited **Aidan’s Pub** on **February 25** for dinner and had such a wonderful experience! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly — **Riley**, our waitress, was incredibly friendly and made us feel like old friends. She took our drink order promptly and treated us with genuine hospitality. We had a tough time deciding on food because the menu had so many interesting choices, so we split a couple of dishes — the **fish and chips** and the **Mild High meatloaf** — and I would *strongly recommend both*! The fish was cooked perfectly, and the gravy on the mashed potatoes was savory and smooth. Every bite was delicious. The **service was top-notch**, and the manager **Roxy** was also friendly and welcoming, treating us with the same warm hospitality. It felt like dinin

This is a local pub first and an eatery second. We ordered takeout and had to wait about 20 minutes past the time their website said it would take. However, as I waited I was surrounded by a crowd of merry people, most of them seniors. This must be a favorite of the old guard in the area. This pub has something planned every night for entertainment. Lot's of beer and lots of fun to be had there. By the way, the bartender was very hospitable. She showed a genuine interest in me even though it was so busy.

I went here for a Valentine’s lunch with my husband, and it was a wonderful experience. My neighbor recommended the Shepherd’s Pie, so I ordered it along with a Guinness beer—such a great choice! The food was delicious, and the cozy ambiance, complete with a fireplace, made it even better. It was quiet and comfortable for lunch, allowing us to relax and enjoy our time. The waitresses were lovely, providing warm and friendly service. I’d definitely come back for another meal. Highly recommend!

2nd time at Aiden’s, this time in summer sitting on the deck with the view of the water. I had Shepherds Pie and it was amazing. They’ll always be super hot so make sure you don’t burn your tongue like I always do. Flaky crust and the veggies and chicken tasted fresh and homemade. Delicious! Also had the New England clam chowder which was good (not #1 in the state but in my top 5). Husband has the baked cod and steak fries. Daughter had a burger. For dessert the apple pie ala mode and brownie sundae. Ohh and my husband had a Guinness. Food is excellent, atmosphere excellent and staff also excellent. Definitely a must when in Bristol, RI

I wouldn’t know how the food was since we never were acknowledged or seated. It was not busy, just the opposite a very slow Sunday afternoon. After standing at the door for a good 10 mins. looking at a bunch of empty tables we asked the bartender if we could seat ourselves and he said no the hostess would be with us. Waited another 5 mins and walked out. Very disappointed. Spent $0 there and went to another pub nearby and spent $75 there instead, In my youth I worked in many restaurants, greeting and acknowledging customers should be a priority!
