Fall Is The Perfect Time To Visit Waterman Grille, A Beautiful Riverside Restaurant In Rhode Island

Fall is an absolutely gorgeous time in New England, especially Rhode Island. And while you'll find plenty of places in the Providence area to see the vibrant fall foliage, you'll definitely work up an appetite while doing so. Treat yourself to a hearty meal at Waterman Grille, a charming eatery in a historic building that sits right on the Seekonk River. You won't even have to leave your seat to see the colorful leaves.

Waterman Grille is located at 4 Richmond Square in Providence, right on the river.

And as soon as you see it, you'll know you're about to have a dining experience like no other.

The eatery is actually located in a former bridge gatehouse that dates all the way back to 1871.

The ageless brick and restored wood give it a unique ambiance that combines old architecture and modern flavor.

While the inside of the building is stunning, their outdoor deck is where you'll find most patrons when the weather allows.

The deck is even available for private events. But thanks to the large wraparound windows, you don't have to sit outside to take in the river views.

Of course, the top reason to come to any restaurant should always be the food -- and this place never disappoints.

Executive Chef Noah Metnick is fantastic with the wood-fired gill.

Waterman Grille serves dinner seven days a week, and on Saturdays and Sundays, you can enjoy a remarkable brunch.

They also offer a $29 prixe-fixe menu from Sunday - Wednesday, allowing guests to choose three courses for an affordable rate.

From late September to early November, you can watch the leaves turn over your filet mignon.

You might even spot some rowers from Narragansett Boat Club, America's oldest rowing club.

The team here loves to host private events, from showers and birthday parties to weddings and receptions.

The catering here is phenomenal.

Waterman Grille is open daily, although hours vary.

Dinner is typically served from 4 - 9 p.m. during the week and 10 p.m. on weekends. Saturday and Sunday brunch hours are 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
