About this business

Perceived from Main Street in Wickford as a deceptively small gray building, this beautifully situated restaurant offers water views from inside as well as from the outside decks. You can eat grilled pizza, seafood and pasta dishes while looking across at Wickford Harbor or watch the ducks in the cove. The food is good and reasonably priced, and the location is one of the best around for water-lovers. Call ahead for lobster or to reserve seating for parties of five or more.

food was ok, service was lousy – For the price you pay, the portions were not that big. No salad with the $20 meal. Food tasted good, but service was horrible. We had to ask the waitress numerous times for little things like water, lemons, more bread sticks, etc. We asked for more bread sticks for our party of 12, and she brings us one basket with 6 bread sticks in it. We asked for oil for the bread, and she says there's already some on the table. It was a tiny bit in the bottom of a dish. She's lucky she got the 15% tip she... read more

Good, but not worth the price – After reading aaronmc's review, I went to Tavern by the Sea with great expectations. The food continues to be quite good and the menu is large enough to satisfy those who love seafood and those who don't. They have received their full liquor license, so alcoholic beverages other than beer or wine are available. My party and I went on a hot (95 degrees) Tuesday noon for iced tea burgers and salad. The burgers came without any condiments. It wasn't until I received the bill that I found they cha... read more

In a town that needs good places to eat, Tavern by the Sea delivers exceptional food. – Wickford is so quaint you may want to v omit when you visit it. The town is forever battling a desire to fill up with overpriced tourist traps for the summer season at the expense of places actual townsfolk might like. Tavern by the Sea is no tourist trap. It delivers city-like cuisine and atmosphere for rural-town prices. I am, in word, hooked. They feature a lot of seafood, being in a fishing village, but there's also a wide selection o... read more
