Looking for a good cup of coffee or some organic food? Well then, you've found the place! Everything Nitro serves is locally sourced, locally brewed and locally poured! The only drawback is that they often have a line out the door. I'd recommend ordering online beforehand.

Another incredible coffee house that is very popular with locals. Empire has several locations on the Island. They serve quick bites and great coffee! And for those of you who might need a temporary workspace, the Broadway location has a lot of space (large tables you can spread out at) and free wifi!

Boru is a compact eatery serving up classic & creative ramen bowls in a casual, contemporary space. If you close your eyes, you'll swear you're eating at a gourmet restaurant rather than a family friendly joint.

Best Way to Get Around Newport

Make no mistake. Newport is a tourist town that attracts a plethora of daycationers and weekend warriors. That means driving around and parking in our little city can be frustrating and time consuming, particularly during the summer months. Whenever possible, we recommend walking, biking, or taking public transportation whenever possible. Uber/Lyft are also a good alternatives to driving yourself.
