Nick-A-Nees vs McShawn's Pub

Posted

Nick-A-Nee's

75 South Street, Providence

It’s a dog bar, has great live music with attentive crowds and a shelf with free books for the taking. Oh, and did we mention it’s a dog bar? A crown jewel of the Jewelry District, Nick-A-Nee's is cash only so make sure your pup brings some dough. 75 South Street, Providence

Keno: No
Bonus kitsch: “Entering Webster” sign and a giant swordfish above the bar. 

McShawn’s Pub

1336 Cranston Street, Cranston

When one of your bartenders is named Mo and you have a square Cheers-like bar, you’re set up to be a popular local watering hole. At McShawn’s, bar tabs are kept on slips of blank white paper and the cheese plate is served on plastic picnic-style plates, just the way it should be. 1336 Cranston Street, Cranston

Keno: Yes
Bonus kitsch: The McShawn’s Hi-Lo-Jack trophy and an “Irish
Mafia” photo.
