$$-$$$ This was definitely an upscale pub and restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious! I was there with my daughter and my brother, and we sat outside. Even though it was slightly chilly, they had the heat lamps going for comfort. We were not rushed at all and sat there and chatted and had supper which was really nice. I had the pumpkin bisque as an appetizer and the lobster macaroni and cheese for dinner. I ended up bringing some of my macaroni home for a second meal. It is always nice to be at an establishment that does not rush you through your meal and allows you to enjoy the company of your family and friends without being interrupted. If we are ever in Rhode Island again, we will definitely be visiting this establishment during our visit. Make memories and safe travels!

My family and I had an awesome dinner at The Trap! We went on a weeknight and sat on the patio. Love that they have a kids menu. The menu has a ton of great options, it was hard to narrow it down. Service was also friendly and fast. My husband and I both went with pasta dishes. They have homemade pasta from their sister restaurant Pasta Patch. The pastas were delicious. I got the cacio e pepe and my husband got the short rib pasta. Their homemade fancy mozzarella squares were also spot on. We loved their marinara sauce. Overall an awesome spot to sit on the patio and grab a bite to eat.

Had an excellent late lunch. I really enjoyed the fish and chips which I washed down with an ice cold brew. Service was great and efficient. My wife had the grilled cheese with apple. It was decent but we do wish the apple slices were smaller and without the cinnamon. I would definitely try this spot again.

This is a good place, however I recommend not getting the red sangria. It's not that great. But 4/5 because every time we've been it was amazing but the bouncer kicks us out of the fire pit area 30 minutes before closing. The fire pit was already put out. We were just finishing our drinks. He was very rude about it too.

If you're looking for patio dining with a chill vibe, cold well made drinks, and food that tantalizes your tastebuds, look no further. The carefully crafted plates are absolutely delicious. The prices are fair, the portions generous. The servers are quick to refill your drinks on the patio!

The Trap is a great place for drinks and bar food especially if you're going to hang out with friends for a long while. The service was slow when I went for lunch. However, really nice staff. Cool place. Decent food!
