About this restaurant

Gluten-free-friendly
Good for groups
Neighborhood gem

All the way back in 1955, the four sons of an immigrant millworker decided to take a chance. They opened a restaurant on Cumberland’s bustling Mendon Road with nothing to their names other than a shared dream and vision - fresh and local ingredients, prompt and friendly service, all to be had at an unbeatable value. They developed a motto and never steered away from it – “If you are not proud of it, do not serve it!”. That restaurant was the original Chelo’s Hometown Bar & Grille, and that motto can be found hanging in each of our kitchens to this very day.
While times change, our values don’t. As a third generation, family owned and operated company, our food is still made fresh in our commissary 7 days a week and delivered to each of our locations daily . Same ingredients, same recipes, same classic food that Rhode Islanders have come to know and love since our grandfathers first opened our doors nearly 70 years ago!

The new summer menu is fantastic and fresh. Try the chopped chipotle salad with the chipotle ranch dressing. Crisp, sweet with some heat. Perfect on a summer day

Try the calamari tossed in Thai chili sauce. It’s fantastic! No better way to start the weekend in RI than with a cold Newport Rhode Trip and a Chelo’s Chicken Finger Salad and legendary honey mustard dressing.

We were greeted promptly and politely by the hostesses and asked to wait a few minutes while our table was prepared on a busy Friday night. Reese provided top notch customer service and the kitchen had our meals out hot and fresh. Try the Philly cheesesteak in a wrap with curly fries. Be sure to save room for the banana berry pie or the pineapple upside down cake!

Waitress brought a another salad for me than the one I ordered, but I was too hungry to send it back. Otherwise, everything was great.
