Dining Recommendations
Open concept, ever-changing and fresh! A cozy setting, and we love the left hand side, called “the half shell” which is more of a bar scene.

It’s lovely, a staple of Newport, and never disappoints! Try the sushi in summer, or the fireplace in winter. Downstairs is the Boom-Boom Room for dancing for people of all ages. A bit upscale and requires a collar for men.

Great place and a Newport staple. Casual option with a huge menu (good for the non-seafood lovers). Highly recommend the ahi tuna sliders, chicken lettuce wraps, nachos, or Portuguese little necks.

Local’s Favorite Watering Holes
Divey, sailor-type bar and local hangout. In summer, climb all flights up the the crow’s nest. In winter, cozy up with Gran Marnier and take a look at all of their bottles— we are members of their infamous Gran Marnier Club!
