Prudence Bristol Rhode Island Previously Judge Roy Bean Saloon
1 State St, Bristol, RI Welcome to the new Judge Roy Bean Saloon, an old fashioned saloon/restaurant in Bristol, Rhode Island.
(575)

Complete with live music, an exceptional atmosphere, and a menu selection packed with flavor and an artisan touch, Judge Roy Bean is a good time- guaranteed. The Judge Roy Bean Saloon is located in an 1800’s wood and brick colonial home; two-stories with two full bars and a rotating 12-draft beer selection. Newly reopened in June, 2014, the bar gets its name from the legacy of the eccentric judge and Justice of the Peace (and saloon owner) Phantly Roy Bean, Jr. known for his unconventional rulings and for holding court in his saloon (his favorite customers participating as the jurors). Today, the saloon is popular for its delectable short rib slider, unique and tasty burgers, fresh seafood, and heavenly fish tacos. Check our website frequently for events such as live music, dancing, food and drink specials, and televised sports. For casual with an old fashioned, refined feel- come to Judge Roy Bean Saloon.

Take a walk down memory lane with us!

For more than a century, this corner of State and Thames has been a place where Bristol comes to eat, drink and talk about whatever Bristol is talking about. Prudence was created to carry on that same belief, that a good bar and restaurant should belong to the people who use it. Now we’d love your help telling the rest of the story!

If you have vintage photos of Bristol tucked away somewhere, we’d love to see them. Old storefronts, parades, harbor days, this very building. Send them our way by DM and share the memories that go with them 🫶🏼
