the ambiance is cool, they play good music and it's cute inside. def cool brunch spot but as for the food…not giving. i ordered the brunch burger, asked for it to be cooked medium and it came out well done, completely unseasoned and dry. the egg that came on top of the burger was fully cooked and not runny like it was supposed to be…the order came with a side of breakfast potatoes, the potatoes were slightly undercooked and absolutely NO seasonings. i had to ask the waitress for salt and pepper cuz nothing was seasoned. the bottomless mimosas were good and they have more than a few flavors to choose from which is cool. but it wasn't good enough to bring me back. wouldn't recommend! you can find somewhere else with good food and drinks.
also, we had a reservation for 2 and when we arrived the hostess had us wait at the bar for about 5/10 min before seating us at a table, not a big deal but if we have a reservation i expect to be seated at a table immediately.

This place is a treasure. It's a close walk from Trinity Repertory Theatre, RI Convention center and the Dunkin Donuts Center. The food is not the same old pub food. We ate an amazing brussel sprouts appetizer. Also a delicious appetizer called Tortone? spelling. We shared two beet and watercress salads for the three of us. Also very tasty. I will definitely be returning to eat here, even though I live on the West Bay of Rhode Island. It's a RI thing!

Not great. Apparently they ran out of eggs but didn’t tell us and just gave us our meal minus eggs. The waiter avoided us so he didn’t have to deal with it. Still charged us full price though. Would not recommend

My family and I came here after doing the escape room down the street. The food was so amazing and tasty. Jacy (sp?) was also SO amazing and accommodating. She was working the tables as well as the bar by herself when we came in. Didn’t have to wait too long for anything. I got the lemon pepper wings and the salmon *chef’s kiss* omg that food was so good. All around 5/5 experience. Make sure (if you drink) you try the MIYArita. Thanks Jacy!!!!

we ended up at barnaby’s in a pinch, in search of a late dinner. the rush had quieted by the time we arrived and we were seated quickly at one of the three outdoor tables. we were greeted by a friendly server named michael who immediately brought a warm and kind presence to our experience. after chatting about the perils and pleasures of alcohol consumption, we opened with a tall, icy, creamy, candy concoction worthy of willy wonka’s golden stamp of approval (the butter beer cocktail) and a starting “snack” of garlic parm cauliflower wings— to which another gregarious waiter complimented with multiple dipping options. the sidewalk tables are perfectly nestled under a canopy of green, surrounded by a balance of city hum and side-street quiet. we followed our starters with a classic burger and a generous cubano, paired with golden yucca fries and delicate yet hearty fried pickles, both crisped to perfection. michael shared with us that, because the restaurant will be taking a short hiatus this week, the kitchen did not have at hand all their usual delicacies. this included the pulled pork that would usually accent the cubano, a small minor note amidst a symphony of abundant deliciousness. both entrees provided much more than just an alley to fullness, but a complete culinary repast to nourish the body, tastebuds, and soul. michael helped round out the evening with a personal touch and easy conversation, organically building rapport with us as if we had been lifelong friends. we will come back, not only for the scrumptious meals, but for the good company— and maybe, after all, the real nourishment was the friends we made along the way.
