Ball's

Both the original Cranston location and the Johnston offshoot have all of the usual sports bar attractions — pool tables and dartboards, beers and wings and the full range of pub fare. Ball's also offers top-notch cover bands on the weekends, plus Texas hold-'em events, beer pong sessions, and karaoke. Their motto is "Grab life by the Ball's." Good advice.
