Revolution American Bistro
In Cranston ’ s historic Pawtuxet Village on Broad Street stands a restaurant and bar serving quality American fare and cocktails that provide bistrogoers the strength for inspiring revolution . But odds are — whether you ’ re stopping by for the Berube burger , after-work cocktails or a celebratory dinner — the welcoming staff and creative plates will make you want to settle in and leave the fight for another day . Owner Dean Scanlon enlisted the help of Providence Painted Signs to create the look and vibe of Revolution American Bistro . The interior pays homage to Pawtuxet Village ’ s historic roots , particularly the burning of HMS Gaspee , an English customs schooner , on June 9 , 1772 , in Gaspee Point . As it occurred more than a year before the Boston Tea Party , many Rhode Islanders take pride that the event was truly the start of the Revolutionary War . Revolution ’ s menu changes daily but it will try to accommodate any dietary needs with advance notice , including providing vegan and gluten-free options .
WHAT TO EAT : Order the old school steak sandwich , pan roasted salmon or the legendary Berube burger at this patriotic restaurant and bar . WHO TO BRING : Pals who love a good drink and learning about history . WHAT TO WEAR : Keep it simple ( patriotic even ?). THE DRINK SITUATION : Frozen beverages like the mudslide and piña colada , or highball cocktails like the dark and stormy and gin and tonic . INSIDER ’ S TIP : Heat and serve meal options to bring home for four to six people are also available . THE DETAILS : 2190 Broad St ., Cranston , 780-8700 , revolutionri . com . $$$
