Screaming Unicorn @ Buttonwoods Brewery (Craft Beer & Brewery in Providence RI)

Screaming Unicorn at Buttonwoods Brewery in Providence, Rhode Island, is where culinary wizardry meets a dash of myth. Run by the ever‑inventive chefs Stephanie Rapoza and Ray Pagliarini, the kitchen churns out dishes that change with the seasons, each bite a tiny adventure. The menu refuses to be boring; one moment you’re chewing a massive pretzel drenched in smoked Gouda, the next you’re flying over an Italian summer on a wood‑fired pizza that crackles with flavor. (The duo’s chemistry in the kitchen is obvious, and the results are delicious.)

Beyond the headline‑grabbing specials, the restaurant serves up a lineup that could satisfy any craving: a BLT that earns a standing ovation, smash‑burgers that rival the town’s best, and creative vegan plates that prove meat‑free can be just as thrilling. Service is swift and genuinely friendly, making it a perfect spot for a low‑key night or a boisterous gathering. In short, Screaming Unicorn turns ordinary dining into a quest for the extraordinary, all while staying firmly grounded in top‑notch craftsmanship.
