Awesome spot a great value for music and entertainment, the local patrons call this place home, wonderful people, and wonderful weight staff, in the summer, they grill, hotdogs and hamburgers and chicken outside while you enjoy the music and watch the band, I highly recommend the east providence yacht club ..

This is a fabulous dive bar! Actually it's a step above a dive bar, it's cute and clean, two things you don't always find in this category of establishment. Came here tonight for the live music. We sat at the bar and had great service all night. The bartenders were fun, friendly and attentive. The music (Emily & Mark) was amazing. Looking for a beer and great atmosphere? This is the place!
If I could give zero stars I would. I'm really disappointed we pass this place all the time on our boat! When we found out they have a place to dock up we were stoked because it's so close to where we live and thought it would be the perfect location to become a regular.... Instead we were treated like they did not want us there. We were never even greeted or asked if we would like something to drink! They were bothered we where there. Just overall super bummed!!
First impression here....came for the live band on a Friday night. Band was good, drinks were good & View is awesome!! Ample seating, clean bathrooms, nice bar, few food choices, couple "regulars were rowdy", CASH ONLY and parking can be tricky. Smoking only pet peeve-leave the smoking to entrance and beyond, yuck!
Awful customer service! I am not sure if the ownership has changed hands however the last few times I visited, we were treated extremely rude buy the bartenders. There was zero friendliness & we were treated horrible. I will never go back due to the way my party was treated.
I have visited this place accompanied by family members. Let me tell you I did not feel welcome at all! I was approached by a staff member there who was completely disrespectful. He proceeded to yell across the dock "yo" "you can't fish there". I was very respect but felt targeted as a person of color and was only there to enjoy boat time with my family. Upon approaching him he asked my two children if I was there father for what ever reason. He proceed to ask me "how do did you get in?" And pointed to a sign which did not state that I could not fish. Different family members had uncomfortable in counters with staff members and it wasn't a pleasant experience. I felt like they were racist. My family member was a member at the Yacht Club and should be treated with respect. They need to train there staff on how to approach customers in a respectful way!
This is a dive bar that we stopped into for a drink late on an afternoon. I paid $21 for three drinks. It seemed like a bar the locals frequent. They did a great job with keeping everything clean and sanitized during the Covid Era. They had a grill outside with a small menu that I didn't get a chance to try. If you like dive bars, I would give it a shot with a few friends for the experience.
If you want a nice night don't go here that's for sure...bartenders and bouncers have zero customer service and have no idea how to handle situations!! If they dont know you or just dont like you look out...you will experience rude bartenders here and they have no manners or respect and will definitely man handle women in a horrible way...I heard rumors of this but I was giving them the benefit of the doubt..but I witnessed it first hand after something totally got out of hand and got caught up in the abuse by the unprofessional staff.
The owners and bartenders are all ignorant, rude and disrespectful to patrons. Food is not good. Old generation patrons and music, overpriced drinks in plastic cups. save your time and money and find somewhere else.
One Yelper wrote about this place: Clientele is locals, friends of the bands and a regular mix of bikers, shady characters and low life types. And this is bad how??? It's a 'clean' dive bar. I'm not a local or a band groupie - been there several times - never an issue, always polite and friendly bar wenches (said with affection!), It may not be hip enough for millennials or snowflakes, but if you grew up drinking Bud Light in a can and want a water view of PVD, this is a pretty good place to go.
