Diego's, Bowen's Wharf
Our first ever date spot! We recommend sitting at the upstairs bar for drinks, apps, and dinner. Sunday brunch is also a favorite of ours here. Try the blood orange margs, the nachos, and fish tacos!
Clarke Cooke House, Bowen's Wharf
A Classic Newport restaurant. In July, we recommend their summer sushi menu and champagne! Tip: Try to grab an outside seat right on the wharf, or a bar stool by the window/water.
22 Bowen's Wine Bar & Grille, Bowen's Wharf
Great entrees and great wine. Highly recommend for a nice dinner. In the summertime, enjoy sitting portside with a cocktail!

Midtown Oyster Bar, Thames Street
Great spot for lunch and dinner. Espresso Martinis from here is a must!
Benjamin's, Thames St.

Newport Beaches
You have not experienced Newport until you have visited one of its 4 public beaches.
1st Beach (Easton’s Beach) is the most popular of them all! This beach features a carousel, playground, volleyball nets, and a snack bar.
2nd Beach (Sachuest Beach) is located next to the Newport bird sanctuary. This is the beach for you if you like to listen to the ocean waves, as it is much quieter and less crowded than 1st Beach.
3rd Beach is located in a cove, so there are no waves here, just peace and quiet. This beach features a public boat ramp.
Gooseberry Beach is located on historic Ocean Drive. This beach is located in a cove, so there are no waves, but there are some massive rocks to climb and dive off of.
