Best part, I was able to get a Mexican breakfast for lunch! 100% recommend this adorable restaurant filled with love and great food!“

“Best fried chicken I’ve had in Rhode Island. I’ve lived in the south for a number of years and this place gets it right. The Nashville Hot Chicken Bao Buns were our favorite. We also loved the creamed corn and mac and cheese. Give this place a try if you’re looking for delicious chicken and southern comfort food.“

“We love Farnsworth, we often go for dinner and breakfast. As everyone already knows the breakfast and morning crew is the best in Riverside. The Dinner crew is also amazing, besides Shaylynn and of course Sydney, Jesse and his kitchen team are exceptional! They can accommodate any requests or needs, with a smile and excellence. We cannot express enough how much we appreciate the team at Farnsworth and what a joy it is to dine there. Great food, service, and people.“

“Came here for a business lunch and wow, was it good. I started off with the Clam Chowder which was okay. I'm from Maine so the bar is set high. My lunch was their Chicken Pot Pie and that was really good! An apple crisp for lunch sealed the deal! My colleagues had sandwiches which were slightly on the dry side, but I had no complaints. Our server, Tiana, was simply excellent! I would come back here if in the area.“

“What can I say that hasn't been said? Chef Nick and Tracy have made a beautiful, cozy dining room with food that I have never been more impressed with in all my years!! Brunch was just as phenomenal as dinner that's served here!! Take my word, you will 11000% be satisfied!!!!“

“Love it here! Right down the street from my house. They have excellent food and the best wings around hands down! Staff is always friendly and I had a conversation with the owner once and he was very enlightening on all the different nightly things that take place there. The bar is pretty big and does get packed quick on a weekend. Drinks are all reasonably priced and I love their Moscow mules, the girls work quick at making the drinks but they all taste the same which is important! The weekends usually always have bands and is a good time. Tables and chairs near the stage area and dance floor. One bathroom for woman and men (sometimes u may have to wait) the sink in the ladies room can be tricky but once u figure it out it's good. Parking in the back and on the side street, again it gets busy. It's just an all around nice little spot for a drink and food or just to enjoy some music or other weekly entertainment! Def recommend!“

“Thank you so much for a wonderful meal and great service to all 12 of us!! Your steamers are the BEST around!! We ordered eight pounds and ate every last one! All of our meals came out hot and at the same time! Your specials are always something to look forward to!! It was the best 82nd birthday celebration to my mom! Red Bridge NEVER disappoints!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I had a really great experience. thank you Cinda for being our waitress! Even to my friend and I come at 9:30 we got a couple of drinks and desserts. Cinda made us feel welcomed. I never had a waitress that talked to us and kept us entertained while doing her job! She was amazing. She is very friendly and outgoing. She is extremely good at her job. I heard from the other customers that she was good at her job has well has they were walking out of the restaurant. Cindy needs a raise or she needs to be promotion!“

“Stopped here before a comedy show next door. We got some light ape and drinks. It took a while for anyone to come and take our order which is why I gave the service a 3. We almost left because we thought we weren’t going to make it in time. The food was very good and loved the presentation was fun and cute with the mozzarella “ducks”. Price was also reasonable.“

“If you want a consistent well made breakfast, come here. The waitstaff are welcoming, warm, & charming. The food always delivers satisfaction. We recommend the 2 egg breakfast combo, I get an omelet (sometimes egg white) with veggies. The pancakes are huge enough to split. All platters come with homefries & your choice of “

“Service received less than 5 stars only because of understaffing. The wait staff was constantly hustling and remained pleasant and attentive. Background music was a bit loud, but that could simply be personal preference. We sat in the downstairs pub area.“

“I've been going there for years, Bobby and his people are fantastic, friendly as well as capable, and both Bobby and his partner make probably the best breakfasts in RI. The "Gaggers" are the old style, delicious, and the sauce is just right. A real nice pleasurable place to go for comfort food, by yourself or with your family. Keep up the good work, guys and gals.Kid-friendliness: It is a nice place to take your kids for lunch, whether they're 3 or 30. Great atmosphere, food is always delicious, service is the best. A trophy for RI.“

“A friend and I come here about once a week to eat dinner. They have a Three for Me special, which includes a beverage, and appetizer, and an entree, all for $10.99. That is a bargain that you cannot beat these days. The staff is always knowledgeable about the menu, they are friendly and efficient, and you are seated quickly on most week nights, but it can be await on weekend nights. There is plenty of parking in the parking lot, the restrooms are always clean, and the only criticism I have is that the aisles are a little narrow, so if you have a wheelchair or a walker for a disabled family member, it is hard for them to navigate through that area. Otherwise, a great dining experience, a very creative menu, and good bargains.Kid-friendliness: This is a very family-friendly, and kid friendly restaurant. They have a kids menu, and coloring books and crayons for the children. Plenty of high chairs for little ones.Wheelchair accessibility: Although the restaurant is wheelchair accessible, some of the inner aisles are very narrow, and can be difficult for a person who uses a walker or a wheelchair to navigate through.“

“I don't often goto Ihop but my son and I were out here early morning and wanted some breakfast. Place was empty but staff was great. I got the Colorado Omelette and my son the chicken and pancakes. Both were hot and fresh. Would visit again.“

“So I order over the phone for pick up. First timers ordering from here . Got to the Pub as to what I was told 1/2 for pick up. Was already pretty busy. I have the unfortunate to wait about an extra 20 minutes for the food. Everyone was so nice, customer service was great even being busy as it was. Whom ever was the tall gentlemen whom give me a gift card for my unfortunate wait. BIIG BIG THANK YOU.. here is my food review .. WHAT wait this place is a hidden PUB Maple bacon wings are a must have, hubby love loved the steak bomb sandwich. Fries was a bit under but my stringy onion rings awesome. Will be going in to dine the next time“
