You might also file a complaint to recover some funds. I think N Main St is state-owned, but here are the two links that should be helpful.

Bottles has the best selection and fair prices for scotch and whiskey.

William Schaff is awesome, but I don't think that's his work

Bottles has very fair prices on their whiskey and a surprisingly great selection. Their sister business is The East End on Wickenden and they have hundreds of whiskies from all around the world. Great spot to try before you buy.

I do not recommend this. I bought it because it’s local and heard it was good.
It’s expensive and frankly not as good as bottles costing significantly less. Love to try local stuff, but paying more for poor bourbon isn’t worth it.

A real Providence experience would be a place like Angelo’s, Mike’s at the VFW, Twins Pizza….

Why oh why? Even the best Providence bbq would be subpar in a real barbecue town. Get seafood, Italian, pizza, breakfast…..

Town wine and spirits has a great selection of whisky, Clift's in Riverside had been building a good collection that's cheaper than expected if a little narrower than summer places

Meetup has Cozy Rhody and Providence Bike Jam, among other groups. I go on group hikes with the Hike-RI and Walks and Rambles groups there as well. Poke around a bit, and you might find something that fits your interests!

You’re out of transmission fluid. Hopefully it’s just a crack in the pan. But your car won’t drive without transmission fluid.

They absolutely better not fucking sell holy shit, they've been around since I was a kid.
No matter who buys it, you HAVE to retain those bakers (many of whom may be family and will be leaving with the others). Like, how do you succeed here?

Looks a bit like work done by William Schaff - an artist located in Warren, RI. Check him out and let me know if you think it was his work.

I wonder if you could contact Roger Williams Zoo and ask... I'd also be curious.

Bottles and Nikki’s are the best in Providence that I know of. Really good selection at both places, though Bottles is probably a bit pricier since it’s over by Wayland Square.

Jordan’s in EP is a really good choice
