All the way back in 1955, the four sons of an immigrant millworker decided to take a chance. They opened a restaurant on Cumberland’s bustling Mendon Road with nothing to their names other than a shared dream and vision - fresh and local ingredients, prompt and friendly service, all to be had at an unbeatable value. They developed a motto and never steered away from it – “If you are not proud of it, do not serve it!”. That restaurant was the original Chelo’s Hometown Bar & Grille, and that motto can be found hanging in each of our kitchens to this very day.
While times change, our values don’t. As a third generation, family owned and operated company, our food is still made fresh in our commissary 7 days a week and delivered to each of our locations daily . Same ingredients, same recipes, same classic food that Rhode Islanders have come to know and love since our grandfathers first opened our doors nearly 70 years ago!

    It was a very busy night. When we went in, we were greeted by friendly staff and just had to wait a moment to check in as they were taking names for a wait list. With so many waiting, I thought we would have to too, but our table was ready to go and were seated immediately. (Very happy we used Opentable!) Our server was attentive and friendly as well. Drinks and food were delivered quickly. Took a star away because the clam cakes were a bit too salty and the fries were soggy. However, everything thing else was delicious. Overall it's a great place for good food and drinks at an affordable price. We’ll definitely go back.

    Reese was an excellent waiter I had a Power salad and my husband had fish and chips. Both were delicious. We like the restaurant on Reservoir Avenue because they take reservations. We will be back again. 😊

    The air conditioning was not sufficient for the Cranston Reservoir Avenue location. The servers as well as the patron were all complaining. It was way too hot in there. They need to replace the system again. Not a pleasant experience when dining when it’s not warm, totally unnecessary
