★★★★★ 5.0 Joe DelGallo · Jan 2026

This place is one of my favorite spots to go. Super reliable and consistent. Lucas behind the bar makes an amazing espresso martini. I highly recommend their Rueben sandwich and fried pickles. Also shoutout to their creative names on their dishes, makes looking at the menu much more fun. Chloe helped us accommodate our party on such short notice and helped make our night amazing blast. Ray was super funny and gave some great advice on the football game! Overall very personable staff, awesome drinks and food, and the atmosphere speaks for itself!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 MCGaming · Feb 2026

Overall a 3 star experience. No problems with the food or the service. But when it comes down to somewhere I’m gonna decide to bring my girl out for food I’d rather spend $70 or more on a nicer dinner and experience. We only got one burger a side of fries, and a bowl of pasta with chicken, and two martini’s. The fact that my bill was $70 is a major turn off and I will not be coming back. Staff was good, atmosphere was great but it’s a sports bar. That shouldn’t be an expensive experience. That’s completely contradicting to what it should entail. I knew what I was going into and yet I still ended up disappointed. You got those college kids right where you want em!

Stopped into the Thirsty Beaver today for lunch and it got the job done. The inside is cute and spacious. The waitress was also very nice and took our orders very quickly. I ordered the chicken sandwich with fries and my partner had the turkey avocado wrap. He liked his food, and mine was pretty decent as well. I’m giving four stars because I found three different/rather long hairs on the table and my chicken sandwich didn’t blow me away. However, it’s definitely not bad by any means!

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Marcus Randell · Feb 2026

As a senior at Bryant University, we have slowly turned the thirsty beaver into one of our go to favorite spots. The atmosphere and great service have been impeccable and they have always treated us with nothing but respect. Some of my fondest memories have come from nights with my friends and classmates at the thirsty beaver. As of late, the place has been overtaken by Providence college freshmen all of whom are under the drinking age. It has come to my attention all of their “younger bars” have been shut down. They responded by ruining the thirsty beaver for kids of age that have been going here for years. They are rude, try and fight us in line, and think they are so entitled. One kid got denied for a fake id and 20 minutes later when I got through the line he was in the bar ordering a
