The Charlestown Rathskeller “Down Back” is a premier destination for live music in Southern Rhode Island. Our beautiful, wooded park-like grounds feature patio seating for the restaurant, bocce, corn hole and more.
Every weekend from May to October the Rathskeller hosts concerts and events on the Down Back Stage featuring some of the best entertainers from New England as well as nationally touring acts. Spacious wooded grounds, a huge fire pit, two fully stock bars and the Down Back Burger Shack make for an epic summer night experience. Our spacious tent is also the site of our annual Halloween bash, and is the perfect venue for all your private functions, from wedding receptions to fundraisers and private parties.
