Excellent Bloody Mary Martini. It was "handcrafted" before our eyes by the bar tender. I use the term handcrafted because I watched as he painstakingly blended the ingredients with extreme care and seemingly a bit of wizardry and magic as well. He offered a choice of pepper infused or cucumber vodka before artistically blending this lovely libation. My sister said she thought it tasted like liquid cocktail sauce and I thought that was fairly accurate. The spice was one part horseradish and two kicks black pepper, which equaled delicious all around. Sure, the martinis have a hefty price tag (all hover around the $10 mark, but they appear to be in fact double martinis in comparison to the standard slender glass. They are no joke at Perks & Corks, so don't be turned off by the price: I'm almost certain you are getting the bang for your buck). One downside: I ordered a bottled beer since I was driving. The menu said my selection cost $4, but the bartender said $5. I didn't argue, though I probably could've vehemently protested, but what would have been the point in such a chill environment? I didn't want to ruin the good vibes I was getting from the cozy couches with beaded cushions and dim lighting. The decor appealed to my inner gypsy sensibilities: luxurious, yet sparse. Opulent, yet practical. One of the more welcoming, cool, comfortable, yet chic places is Westerly. The live music was decent; not so loud that I still couldn't carry a conversation which was nice. I want to go back when someone else is driving (and paying) so that I can sample a couple of their martinis. The Bloody Mary, Raspberry, and Chai were three standouts on the menu.

Let's start by the fact that their menu have two pages of food and SEVEN pages of magnificent alcoholic beverages, plus specials. Then you have staff... They are very friendly and knowledgeable. They can make good recommendations on pairing the drinks with one of their delicious grilled cheeses. They are also courteous and attentive. And the decorations and ambiance brings everything together for you to have a memorable time with your friends.

This place is fantastic. I almost wish I lived closer to Westerly so I could go here all the time. Ambiance of this place is very laid back with comfy couches everywhere. Bar tender was super friendly and made amazing martinis. I got the chai cocktail which is apparently their 'signature' cocktail which tastes just as you might think, like chai. I got to try the reeses peanut butter cup one too which was also excellent. Although, these both seemed to lack in the alcohol department. While perusing the menu we saw a martini called cello, and it explicitly states that they can only serve one. Of course, we had to get one each. They were fantastic but after we had it they wouldn't serve us anything else AT ALL. So, lesson learned, order that cocktail last and try a few of the other ones. I don't think it was alcoholic enough to warrant limiting it to the one but, aww well. They had a guy playing guitar which was surprising for a Sunday evening in Westerly. A little too loud for my liking but we sat far away and it was ok.

Perks & Corks is fantastic. Not only do they serve magnificent chai lattes, but they serve them with booze. What could possibly be better? Add live music, a gourmet grilled cheese menu, and you've got... magic. The service is great, even when the bar is packed and the music is loud. It's hard to find a seat on the weekend nights, but it's worth going early to ensure your spot. The Reese's martini (peanut butter and chocolate) is filling and I usually have to split it with a friend. It's the perfect dessert cocktail and will fill any craving. The chai martini's are classic and I recommend getting one if it's your first time at Perks. They always fill their martinis right to the rim, which ensures that it's worth every penny. If you've already had a chai martini from Perks or chai isn't your thing, I recommend trying one of their other signature martinis. The antifreeze looks just how it sounds, but tastes like the island's. So far, the grilled cheese's prove to be delicious! I've only tried one, but I can't wait to try more. I'm not sure what else Perks could do to be better... They've got it all goin' on. Maybe delivery? Kidding! But what a concept that'd be...

This is one of my favorite places to take people when going out in Westerly. Drinks and live music, what more can a girl ask for? Although there are many seating options, whether a couch, a high table or a seat at the bar it can be difficult to find a spot if you don't arrive early on weekends. (My friends and I have actually been turned away on occasion since they had reached capacity.) They offer an extensive martini menu including chai, fruity and dessert variations. I personally have tried all of the chai martini options as well as the grasshopper and the white chocolate cappuccino - all delicious. While I frequent specifically for the martinis they do offer an extensive beer list as well. On one occasion I ordered a grilled cheese and it was delicious. (I will definitely order them again in the future, but lately I have been eating dinner before going out for drinks.)

Great atmosphere... Wicked expensive if you want to get your drink on, or buying rounds. Almost always a good mixed crowd. Live music most nights. Great date place! Parking downtown can be tough sometimes. Good stop when bar crawling downtown.

I asked the bartender for a Perk and Cork martini, dry-no vermouth. According to Google: If you order a dry martini it means that you'd like less vermouth in your cocktail. A very dry martini would contain little to no vermouth; one might just roll the vermouth in the glass so that a thin film coats it -- nothing more. I was laughed at and corrected by the "bartender" that it means MORE vermouth, she said like I was a silly girl as compared to the middleaged woman who has ordered them all over the world with the same results. Hopefully it made her feel better by belittling me. She than proceeded to screw up our grilled cheese sandwiches, again, off the menu. She took one of them off our bill. We won't be back.

We've been hooked since our first pb cup martini! Love going there after dinner for one or two of these delicious concoctions. Vibe is great, but finding a seat is sometimes a struggle because it gets really busy after 9.

Totally adorable. It's like sitting in someone's fancy dining room in their house. Cute antique-y vibe. Drinks and food were both tasty and well presented. A great little stop in south RI.

This place is the best. The fact that its been in business for this long (something VERY rare for downtown Westerly, it seems), is saying a lot. First and foremost- the martinis. The menu has got to have at least 4 pages in the menu dedicated to martinis. Ive tried about 5 or 6 of them, and every single was was delicious. They are all massive, and strong. It leaves you with a good feeling (pun intended!) when you pay $10 for a martini and really get what you paid for. Food - Holy smokes, you get a lot! This place does not hold back. I had ordered a Hendrix grilled cheese (pesto, turkey, Gouda), and not only was it just as good as their martinis, but its huge! I ate half, and was genuinely full. Atmosphere - an artsy space, filled with photos and homages to music icons. The last time I went, it seemed as if they acquired the space next door to them and expanded their bar into a new, connected lounge. The interior reminds me of a hookah bar (lots of comfy couches and seats). The clientele runs the gamut here, a lot of younger folks on weekend nights, but everyone is welcome here. Service - very friendly bartenders. Seems there is only ever one or two bartenders on at a time (and they also cook the food), so service can be a little slow when its busy, but well worth the wait. I think my only complaint would be about the live music, though I was only here once when there was live music. It was just loud. Probably wouldn't be a problem with the expanded lounge. All in all, this is the best place for a martini in Westerly.. perhaps the best place in Westerly, period.

Iced chai martini, I could end the review there and I would have said enough. This little coffee shop by day, coffee inspired bar by night is a really great location to catch up with friends and unwind in a relaxed, dark but warm enviroment. The cocktails were all delicious, well made and generious in size. The food portions were also generious and well made for what one would normally expect for bar food. On most weekends you shoould be abe to catch a local band or some form of live entertainment. The coffee bar has a lot of hide aways and comfortable seating, it is almost as if you are drinking in fancier version of your own home. I can't wait to go back when I am in the area.

Love. The atmosphere is so cozy and comfortable, the service was spot-on and the live music is fantastic. They have a martini menu that is easily 4-5 pages and the martinis themselves are like the size of my head. I definitely recommend the Chai martini; it's delish!

I love this place. Delicious coffee, specialty drinks, amazing employees and service, beautiful atmosphere. I only wish they were open Sundays! Please! Sundays are the best lounging coffee days. Also amazing live music

Came here to see a friend play an acoustic show featuring violin and guitar - this establishment is BEAUTIFUL - exposed brick behind the bar, dark crimson paint on the walls, and furniture that is as eclectic as furniture gets. Drinks: I ordered an expresso martini to start, followed by a chocolate monkey. My friend had the traditional chai martini, which came complete topped with whipped cream. The beer menu looked good too, and cheap! I dont think I saw anything over $5 for a beer! Food: We ordered and split a "Vaughn" grilled cheese - turkey bacon avocado and red peppers - YUM! Home made chips on the side were crunchy and good to munch on to balance out the strong martini's Overall: This place has such a cool vibe, HUGE martini's (for around $10 bucks a pop- but be warned, they are STRONG!), fun atmosphere and friendly bar staff. The only downside is its an hour away from where I am- otherwise I would be here ALL THE TIME!! Definitely check it out if you get the chance!

This place is awesome. There's almost always live local musicians. The cocktails are loaded and the staff is extremely friendly. I had the paninis for the first time today. They were stuffed full and delicious. I live out of state and make it a point to visit whenever I'm back in town.

On a winter Sunday afternoon (it was quiet), we descended on downtown Westerly. We had fancy coffee, Nutty Irishman and Italian coffee, delicious! When we left the bartender gave us a tip - "...do the crawl, start at the Irish place, then....." we loved it and will definitetly put it on the schedule. We both loved the cozy eclectic decor.

I am originally from the Westerly area and came home for a week this summer to sorta be a tourist in my home town. I also brought a group of 4 other people with me. I love showing off the unique places in Westerly and had heard good things about Perks and Corks so we decided to check it out. When we walked in, it was steady not too busy. I was VERY excited about trying the Chai Martini which my friends had raved about. We went to the bar and waited about 15 mins with no service. Not even a "hi ill be with you in a few mins". The bartenders literally ignored us. Then other people walked in, and they were immediately served. That is a sure way to make sure new business leaves your establishment and never comes back. I was so disappointed, and sadly cannot recommend this place to anyone. In fact I'm so annoyed, if I could give this place 0 stars I would. Its clear they only care about serving people that are regulars. So if you ever find yourself in South Country and are not a local, I would skip this place. The Malted Barley is another bar a few shops down and is much more attentive to its patrons.

Really cool decor, great ambience, unfortunately terrible coffee. It's Dave's Coffee, so the fault has to be in the brewing. Both cappuccino and latte were so weak as to be barely coffee-flavored. Service was less than enthusiastic. There were only a few people in there at 10:00 on a Saturday morning. May be a great bar (I don't know), but as a cafe, not so much.

Ok, this review is long overdue. Perks is the best. And by this, I mean that you cannot not love a place that's a cafe by day and a bar by night. I come here regularly, not only because of the chill atmosphere, but because of the efficiency of the workers and the quality of the music playing. Their wine list is extraordinary, but they are not snotty about it or put on any kind of pretense whatsoever. What I really love about this place is that it has all the potential to be pretentious and snotty but just utterly refuses to do so; as if to say that it knows it's awesome but doesn't want to draw attention to the fact. This is why it's probably my favorite night-life place in town--unapologetic and not-pretentious simultaneously...THAT'S my idea of a good time. I hear they make great Chi Martinis and chocolate alcohol, (I don't drink any such nonsense.) Plus, I Shazam a lot of the songs from their speakers, because whoever owns this place knows good music inside and out. I would imagine that praise for this business would go without saying, but I am saying it anyway. Thank you, Perks & Corks, for existing in my world. You're cool.

This is my sister and brother-in-law's local watering hole so we popped in for a martini. I ordered the Orangecello which was delicious, massive and only $10! The drinks are very strong so watch out as it can catch up to you real quick (writing this with still slight hang over after a full day recovery),

Really love this place. When I was in high school me and my best friend would come here every other Thursday to have a coffee and muffin and talk. Very relaxing and private with a very good music selection playing in the background. I only went there for a casual coffee to relax, and wouldn't know about the bar scene at night. Heard they have great entertainment though.

Love the cozy cafe/martini bar. I used to come here during the day and order an iced chai and study for my final exams. Its a nice, peaceful coffee place during the day. Great for meeting up with a friend, reading or getting some work done. At night, expect loud music after 8pm on weekends and more week nights. I don't believe they have any draft beer but they do have bottled beer. Known mostly for their huge and potent martinis. They have a huge variety of martinis anywhere from chocolate, to green apple, to chai flavored. During the fall, I love love love to order their Hard Cider - which I believe is from Clyde's Cider Mill in Mystic? and they add some spiced rum. Yum!! Only downfall is its not a great place to go in a group on busy nights. Cozy seating allows only for some many people to sit and the place is quite narrow. I recommend getting there a bit early if you have friends with you!
