Tiny bars are creative but they live up to their name. They’re tiny.

Was going to say the Red Door. Some of the best I’ve had.

Red door, avery, bobcat. I’m a huge fan of dusk and parlour for the music but they aren’t exact high end cocktail bars.

The Eddy, Kimi’s, the Avery are my top three.

All of the above and the recent addition of Clementine's. Went last week and they were inventive and balanced, cool new spot.

Former mayor and current congressperson Cicilline is involved with Clementine. Saw him glad handing guests and washing surfaces last time I went by.

Lot of great answers already (especially The Eddy) but saw The East End hasn’t been mentioned yet

Bodega on smith street had amazing drinks. New place, definitely worth checking out.

The Eddy, Courtland Club, Royal Bobcat, and the newly arrived Clementine are the best bars in Providence. The Avery uses entirely too much cheap ice in all of their drinks making everything watered down. I asked for a Paper Plane at Needle & Thread and they had no idea wtf it was.

So now I gotta ask - what is a Paper Plane?

It's a modern riff of the classic Last Word:

bourbon 3/4 oz aperol 3/4 oz amaro nonino 3/4 oz lemon juice 3/4 oz

Not a popular one, but I think Layali has the best cocktails of any restaurant in PVD since they make their own infused syrups. Though there’s some strictly bar-only places I haven’t been to yet.

Just another person recommending Red Door. Specifically the Oaxacacillin but everything is delicious

I've only been there once but I'll bring it up bc no one has, Jake and Johnny's on Fed Hill is incredible. Zazz is a great bartender, super chill place, connected to Napolitano's pizza for food too

I heard that Marcellino’s was good, and I finally tried it tonight: quite good, actually, and a little experimental, which was unexpected for a bar attached to the Omni. Slow Rhode also makes good cocktails, in addition to Courtland, Eddy, and the others often mentioned here.

The Eddy is my pick. Not quite Providence... but Bywater also has killer cocktails. Avery / Glou / Tiny Bar all have ok drinks but they mostly just taste like sweet juice (not a ton of nuance).

Drink bourbon on the rocks. Forget those stupid bartenders who call themselves mixologists hahahaha!
