About this business

This club started out as a small, funky beer and wine bar frequented by artists, musicians and academics. The owners soon added rooms, decks and a small grill, and it became one of Providence's most popular places. On hot summer nights, the decks are especially popular and inside there is always some type of event. Mondays are for karaoke, Tuesdays are for trivia and the rest of the week varies. The Hot Club is a cash-only establishment and there is never a cover charge.

Hot Club: A Unique Rhode Island Hot Spot ! – This establishment is by far the most contemporary & Rhode Island representative gathering location one can find. I have been frequenting the Hot Club for a quarter century now, and each visit is both a return home, as well as a unique experience. Whether you are enjoying a cigar and cool drink under the warm Summer eve’s stars, or a coffee drink by the gas stove inside on a snowy Winter’s afternoon, the atmosphere is comfortable & welcoming. The patronage is as unique as the ambi... read more

The Bartenders are terrible!!!!!!!! – I love this place but the bartenders are ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Worst service in the city by far. I've been going there for years and the same lame bartenders have been there. Theyre depressing and never thank you when you tip. If it had halfway decent bartenders it would be superb. It's a great place cause of its location and its patrons.

Great place spring to fall – I love grabbing a drink and just sitting out on the deck. Staff is friendly enough. Drinks are reasonable. Being on the water helps this place a great deal.

Longevity tells it all – If longevity counts for anything obviously the Hot Club is doing something right. You get a very good mix of people from suits to jeans from young to old. Reasonable drink prices and decent service. In the summer the deck is open with a seperate bar. The club sits right on the Providence River. I have spent many summer days that started with a few drinks for lunch and found myself leaving at midnight! The only downside is the parking, lot only holds maybe 10-12 cars and on street parking is basically... read more

Great place, could use better servers – Love going to the Hot Club, in spite of the new inept servers. Great drinks at a great place. The crowd's always great, also.

With its waterside location and early opening hour, this laid-back, rustic bar is perfect for your inner slacker. – The Scene How many bars can you name where you can blow off work and hang out for the day without making your loved ones worried? Positioned on the Providence River, this respectable watering hole is a great temptation for those itching to play hooky. One piece of advice: Wait for summer, when the long, pier-like patio provides beach-like comforts minus the irritating sand. The Draw It wouldn't take an astrophy... read more

You Should Go! – The Hot Club is great! In the summer after work, if the weather is nice, there's no place like it. It gets a good crowd, weekend nights can be a little more annoying. It does get a nice mix of people & is definitely about a zillion times better than the Fish Company next door. Not as many *meatheads.*
