New England Mod & Meetup Thread: May 17 at Jared’s!!

Ditto

 

See above. Post #8961

 

My vote is for January as well. In a way (philly meet) January to John and I is "axe throwing month " lol.

 

Somehow this Saturday might have opened up. 50/50 as of now but that's higher likelihood than I expected. Anyone want to attack MA Bell? Or the NJ spot?

 

I’m in Newport, RI right now and that’s where I’ll be shipping from. I could be bribed to meet by secret intel to good beer or pie.

 

Yes, Jersey would have to be end of January for me at the earliest

 

I meant this Saturday 12/7

 

Not Jersey but could probably do Ma bell this Saturday

 

So you’re in for axe throwing then

 

Calling @GarlicFarts this person needs to know where to get a slice

 

Noted, let's see if anyone else can, could be fun (just need to keep an eye on the weather)

 

I'm out for the beginning of winter but depending on weather I'd love to get here feb-march. Post 63 pre flatbed I am thinking

 

I could maybe do an early Feb run but am out for a bit March through whenever as kid #2 arrives then

 

Oh, shiz - I could be the handoff then, I'm in Providence.
I don't have a specific reason to go to Newport but I could be convinced.

I don't know Newport, as much, to be fair. There's a mexican place called Deigo's which is pretty good.

Once you get into Providence I know the pizza.

Napolitano's is where it's at.
Jeff's (Geoff?) in East Providence gets a lot of praise. I will be brutally honest - I still haven't been, and I live in the town! BUT I know they got the goods.
Pizza J's in Providence has good pizza, they have some of the best vegan pizza around (wife's vegan)
There's a place in Seekonk called Provolone's, it's next to a donut shop and it's off in the suburbia style instead of the city - but they're next to my office and I can get there in 2 minutes, and the pizza is way better than it has any right to be where it is. I would rank it on par with some of the places in NY (Lombardi's, Joe's)
I've only been to Fellini's sober once, and do not regret it - highly recommend, right across from a trader joe's and there's the PV Donuts right next to it now. Pain in the dick to drive and park there, but worth it (go straight off the highway, park on S Main, I think it's S Main right there).

I won't knock Antonio's, or Nice Slice. Both are good, it's more about where I am than which one I want to go to.

Good Beer? East Providence, Crook Point Brewery (conveniently, right near Jeff/Geoff's, can't remember which spelling).
Trinity Brewing in Providence.
Bristol, RI - Pivotal Brewing, they're really good (there's a vegan place across the street that is, again, way better than it has any right to be).
Now, hear me out - Narrgansett Brewery in India Point, they have a ton of smaller brews that they try out before they put them large scale, so it's not just a "gansett and gansett light" kind of place, they have a TON of options.

 

I can't do this Saturday, but I'm in for axe throwing.

We went here before: https://r1indoorkarting.com/axe-bar
They have a cool escape-room-esque thing, it's just a bunch of rooms with small 1-2 minute challenges that you run around and do, like obstacle courses, puzzles, etc. Cool for a small group, but 10 morons trying to drunkenly swing across a (fake) alligator pit would be...You know what, nevermind, let's do it!

 

I actually went to Diego’s last night, staff is a bit chaotic but the food was decent and Rejects next door is doing good work.

 

Absolutely

 

I’m busy this Saturday.
