The Stable
Video Bar · Cocktail Lounge · Providence, RI
About
The Stable is bright, loud, and full of Top 40 music videos playing on screens throughout the bar. The crowd skews younger, with plenty of 20-somethings and some 30-somethings, all in a friendly but lightweight social scene. A pool table and occasional live music add to the mix.
It's open daily from noon until at least 1am, with 2am closings on Friday and Saturday. The full bar keeps things flowing, and there's outdoor seating when weather cooperates. If you're looking for a low-key spot to start or end your night downtown, this fits.
The Stable is located in downtown Providence, near other bars and nightlife.

“Beautiful Club with an amazing staff!”
If you want to continue partying after The Stable closes for the night, Club Body Center is a local bathhouse that seems to be the after-hours nightlife spot. Keep the party going, everyone! They offer discounts if you show your bar stamp or band at check-in. It's located at 257 Weybosset Street in Providence, Rhode Island.

“Decent watering hole but not as macho as the name implies”
The Stable is okay, but it's bright, flashy, full of autotuned pop music videos, and very flamboyant. Not a great choice if you're masculine or prefer men who don't giggle. A friend told me he liked the crowd because they're a bit older (around 40), but all I saw were people in their 20s and a few in their 30s trying to look younger. Patrons are fairly friendly, but the conversation will be pretty shallow. Well, most of it. The guy next to me quietly asked the owner/bartender a question, and the owner/bartender loudly answered, describing his problem with colon polyps, the colon surgery, the healing process, his concerns about long-term colon function, and his past history with colon problems. For five minutes straight. Later, the owner/bartender refilled my glass of water and commented that water was what started his colon problems; he ate a salad washed in local water in Cancun, and at first he thought his colon problems were just indigestion.
