If you are planning on staying the weekend in Newport, we highly recommend Scales & Shells - great for all of the seafood lovers! Scales & Shells is a fantastic local fresh seafood restaurant. There is no menu here - just a chalkboard, that is updated daily!
This place has great (Rhode Island style) clam chowder! If you are staying in Newport for the weekend, we encourage you to check Bowen's out for a quick lunch while you are exploring downtown, or for a great steakhouse dinner!
