Union Station Brewery - Providence

Really good craft beer, great music selection and waitress was also great

Service is great, food is great. Didn’t realize it was trivia night, but it was fun to play along with some of the questions at our table.

Food was great. Service was excellent especially on a busy Saturday night. It’s always fun to go here to see the big vats where they brew beer. The beer list is extensive, which you’d expect in a brewery. One of the challenges of this place is getting there. GPS sends you to the stairs from the Kennedy Plaza side but you can’t get there in a car and there’s no sign. Yes, it’s in the courtyard behind that building but not helpful for first timers. Parking is tricky. There’s a large lot right next to the restaurant, but a sign that says full when it isn’t. It used to be a paid lot, but it is free now. You just have to know to go into that lot. The Union Station Parking Garage, right next door and off Memorial Blvd, where signs tell you to park, requires you to climb down two flights of stairs. It puts you right in the courtyard, which is convenient unless you use a walker like I do. It does have good signage, just no elevator. They do validate if you park in this lot. Union Station Brewery has been around for many years and I’m glad it made it through the pandemic. Sadly all of the other 5-6 restaurants that were in this plaza are gone so it’s pretty sad looking. Hopefully as things pick up, this spot will return to its former vibrancy. The Brewery feels just like it always has despite its solo stance of location. It’s worth the trip for the food and the energetic vibe, but you may need a local to know how to get there.

I like Union Station and have eaten there a few times. The food is reliably good. However, last night they had some guy on a microphone doing trivia and it was so loud that we could not enjoy our dinner and had to leave. If you make reservations, be sure he isn't there!

Fun atmosphere, great area to watch the BAMA game and the food was excellent. Server was great but servuce was horrible as we were starving and it took an HOUR to get a chicken sandwich unacceptable!
