Food in Newport?
Anyone have any suggestions on a good place to grab some lunch?
|
 Beer is the reason we get up each afternoon.

A lot of options...for a decent priced and great casual lunch spot I really like Pasta Beach on Memorial.

Flo's Clam Shack - Middletown. Just across from Newport First Beach.
That is where craftyangler/Chuck sent us (BTW - where has he been?!)
I can tell you where NOT to eat: avoid The Red Parrot unless you just want a good view of the people walking down the main drag there.  |

When we make a trip to Newport it's because we want to go to the Black Pearl.

many are way expensive. For reasonable prices and good foods , i always liked Salas , it just about 30 feet from the guy diving into the wave (he may have socks on today cause its cold  ). I also used to like Moorings but its not what it used to be. Wharf Deli on Bannisters wharf is where the locals go if they are in that neck of the woods. Good food and reasonable prices and beer in pints , including harp , bass and guiness. Brick Alley Pub is also very good. I also remember that Kevin stacoms place , Mudville Pub is good.
In Newport , there is no end to the number of good places , the problem is some will empty your wallet. |

Lunch, definetly Coddington for a burger and beer, easy parking and outside the crush of shoppers downtown this weekend... And hell, if you need another reason, they make their own (great) beer
either the irish stout or choc porter

Anybody remember the Starboard Tack? When I was stationed at C Hill we used to hang out there- also O'Brien's on Thames St.
but I haven't been to either place since '89

Mudville Pub in my opinion has better food than Brick Alley. Haven't been there in a long time but used to always love that place. Coddington is awesome too.

Another placed I loved was the Wharf Pub/Deli. Good raw bar there if I remember correctly. I'm starting to have flashbacks of my single days!

There are many, many good places to eat in Newport. If the weather is decent, just walk the main road and you'll walk by numberous restaurants. I also reccpmend the Brick Alley Pub for general fare. but that would not be my choice for true seafood. (Maybe the black pearl or somewhere else down that alley)
Just ask the locals if there's something you're craving..you'll probably get 5 different opinions.
good luck

Sounds like we will have no shortage of places to choose from. Thanks and Merry Christmas! After looking at their website, I think it will be Coddingtons.
