44 Best Bars near Newport

“Such great bartenders Jules and Erin and a great atmosphere and great locals there“

“I went for a goth night event and had a great time. Excellent bar service, DJ was good too! There's also a food truck. There was a lot of focus on S&M stuff, which is not my thing, and kind of overpowered the club. But to each their own 🤷‍♀️“

“Wonderful atmosphere, great food & the music moves you! Check out this venue…stellar!“

“Great place to hang with a small group and enjoy a good drink“

“Named as one of the top dive bars in the country, Murph's is a bit less ragged and run down and a step up from some of the dives I've been in. It's clean, tastefully decorated, and spacious. You can immediately tell that this is a neighborhood bar, where the locals are all familiar with one another. There is ample space for pool, and the 360 degree wrap-around bar is a great touch. We only came in for beer, and I can report back that the draft beer is quite cold!“

“The owner, employees, and atmosphere are incredible. Everyone is kind and friendly and so very welcoming. If you like good drinks and company, definitely come to Twisted Irons! They all love dogs, too!“

“Amazing experience at Hideaway! Patrick was our server, he was exceptional with his customer service, very friendly and attentive! This place never disappoints, we love the food but the service this time was on point and by far the best we have ever had hands down! Thank you Patrick for your services, much appreciated!“

“We just had our welcome party for my daughter’s wedding weekend. Meghan, Jordan and Ashley were very easy to reach. They responded quickly and were extremely helpful as well as accommodating. The evening of the event went without any issues.The only change is I would have brought some zip locks for the kids to be able to take the extra cookies and brownies home as a sweet treat that was delicious. That is on me, not them. Wonderful place to have an event that you do not have to worry about anything on that night. They were extremely attentive and flexible the entire evening. Job well done Creamery - great time was had by all that attended“

“It’s the night before Christmas. My family just went through a traumatic experience and had enough. My husband and I searched everywhere for a bar. This bar was the only bar open for miles. The bar tender was very friendly. Served me a double of what I needed to forget my troubles. They don’t serve food though. But that’s ok.“

“The bartender Chloe (apologies for possible misspelling) is an absolute wonder. She is kind, funny, and remembers customers as well as their drinks. Awesome place!“

“Last night was my first time and we had so much fun!! The bartender was awesome! Everyone was super friendly. Can’t wait to go back“

“We went out for St Patrick’s Day festivities, and to watch Dickens & Ballsworth. Our first time at Finnegan’s and we will be back!“

“Great place to enjoy a drink and relax. Several TV's at the bar and plenty of seating at tables or atvthe bar. We had the French dip which was not great, but okay. Their burger, the fire cracker shrimp and wings were fantastic. And as usual the bar tender and staff were great.“

“Noel is an excellent bartender! Super personable and on point with making the drinks 🍹“

“Awesome little local bar with the best bartender (Bob's da man!) Great place to play darts, can't say much for pool bc always too many people over there but hey that's to be expected at a place whose sign clearly says Billiards... y'all need to be patient.“

“Small neighborhood bar with big heart and community love. Event space and outdoor patio bar with smokers lounge. If you like oldies don’t miss 1st Saturdays, if you like karaoke come on Monday night 7pm, if you like it gritty in the city hit it up on Thursday night. If you just want a laid back dive bar for a heavy drink for the low, there’s no other in the city with a better pour. STAMP.“

“I've lost track of how many times we stopped here. The drinks are ridiculously cheap and the bartenders are great. We never sit with empty glasses. We like to go when its quieter on Sundays, but even durning the weekend when it was really crowded we still found seats at the bar. They always have all the games on, including horse racing. This is one of our faves.“

“Comfortable and friendly atmosphere. Pool Tables and many classic pinball machines to play! Juke Box filled with cool music for all. Owners and Day/Night Bartenders are wonderful! Really tasty food! Hot and Cold menu choices! Love the place more than home! ✌️👍👍✌️“

“Great place to watch the games or to just hang out and throw back some drinks. Friendly bartenders.“

“Whenever I need to unwind and I’m in Delaware, I come here. It’s like “Cheers” for my people. I’m in my zone, playing the jukebox, chatting with the regulars, and having a Jack. The owner “Lady” is the realest lady I know, she’s a mentor to many and a force in the community.“

“Walking into this Trolley Square gem feels like a warm embrace! From the moment we stepped inside, the welcoming presence of Jacquline, our host, guided us to a comfortable table tucked away in the back. Her genuine friendliness set the perfect tone. Shortly after, the delightful Katie became our server, her pleasant demeanor immediately putting us at ease and smoothly starting our culinary journey. The menu boasted a tempting array of options, and we eagerly chose the kale Caesar, cornbread, and brisket mac and cheese to begin. Oh my goodness – each starter was an absolute revelation! For our main courses, my wife savored the delicate lamb gnocchi, while I thoroughly enjoyed the perfectly cooked salmon. Neither dish disappointed; they were both executed flawlessly. A thoughtful touch was Katie finding me a delicious non-alcoholic beer, a real treat since I don't drink. To conclude our exceptional meal, we shared a lemon pound cake that was simply divine. Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend a visit to this wonderful spot in Trolley Square. Everything, from the ambiance to the exquisite food and the extraordinary service, was truly on point.“

“Always be my family local bar. great regulars & guests. coldest beer in town, great jukebox & two pool tables. Go back to 1964, a simpler kinder time.“

“I like when Larry hugs me and when a crowd gathers around me at the foosball table because I'm so good.“

“Locals spot, but welcoming to everyone. Isn't the most glamorous, but I guarantee that you'll feel at home.“

“I've been commuting from VA everyday fr the past few weeks. Ended up working late and getting a room. Found this place after a did a quick Google maps search, and was IMMEDIATELY sold when a review said this bar reminded them of "Cheers".

BRIAN was the bartender when I came in. He was super welcoming and had great small talk. As someone who's never been here, he treated me like a regular.

CHARLIE, who prepared the food, also came out when he had time and was a pleasure to chat with. The food he made was really good.

The environment is what I look for in a bar. If I lived here, this would be my regular spot.. It's refreshing to find small places like this, where people care and build a welcoming environment. I'd come back, NO QUESTION! Cheers to another late work day!“

“Great food excellent service and fabulous atmosphere!! Highly recommend“

“Overall it was a nice bar once we got inside. We had a pepperoni pizza abd some drinks and did kareoke (friday night). It seems a little quiet and weird when you pull up because its a very hidden bar and its a little hard to tell if it's open, but once you get inside they have great music and very nice bartenders. Would definitely go again“

“After searching for Mexican Food that tastes like home (Northern California), we finally found it! We had to drive 85 miles to get here but we will be back. ❤️❤️“

“Cold beer and good food 😊. the staff is great.“

“I'm on vacation from Canada and went out last night with my cousin and ended up at this place. This is not somewhere.I would normally go but when in Rome.... At first when I walked in it reminded me of a bar that I've seen on Tubi and guess what.... I loved every minute of it. It was ladies night!!! The bartenders were friendly and quick.
The music was great and them drinks were amazing. Never really been a fan of the lemon drop, but they made me a fan last night and let's talk about the $8 Patron shots. Yes, please!!!! All good vibes, the whole time. Shout out to the birthday girl!!! 🥛🥛🥛🧉🧉🧉🍸🍸🍸
Oh, and the chicken wings are so good. Definitely a 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 vibe!“

“My sister and Fiancé usually go Suite 4 Eleven for date night. One particular Saturday she asked me to go with them so they could see if this would be a great place to hold their after party for the wedding. Needless to say we will be booking a section in September for after the wedding. This is our new hangout spot. The DJ,food,hookah and professionalism of the staff is what absolutely sold it for us!“

“Best dive bar around with fantastic bartenders and great food!“

“Great friendly place for n people to hang out with“

“went there tonight for the first time in a long time and the cheese steak was amazing. Like I need to go there more often for the food!“

“Staying in town for a couple of nights to visit Longwood Gardens, kinda dumbed into choosing Letty's seeking a diverse menu.

Honestly, we liked the many dishes that included mushrooms. We are big fans and when in mushroom country like this, you have to take advantage.

The craft beer selection is good, cocktail list looked very tempting and there is a decent wine selection. We enjoyed Tired Hands Crushable Church. A good hazy with under 5% ABV.

We started with the mushroom arancini, which were delicious. Came as a set of 3 small arancini, perfect for two people.

I enjoyed the mushroom pizza which is a flavorful combination of fontina cheese, mixed sautéed mushroom blend and sautéed sliced mushrooms. Crust was crispy and crunchy. Good combination. My wife enjoyed the mushroom Po Boy sandwich, also a good choice.

They do pass the 3% credit card fee onto the customer just so you are aware.

Overall it was a good choice and a delicious meal. When we return to the area, we will definitely make sure we eat here again.“

“A great venue, not far from the UD campus right on the river. Good food at decent prices. Their upstairs venue space is awesome. We are there monthly for the Vanguard Event and they go out of their way with custom drinks and great service. 10/10 would recommend!“

“best bartender ever super sweet jul ? will make this place a regular watering hole. chill atmosphere but upscale… not a ton of food choices but not bad, just need to change very rude inappropriate girl manager. she’s a law suit waiting to happen“

“If you want good food/service/drinks/atmosphere? This is the place you want to be. Date night? Game night? Both? This is the one stop shop for going out“

“Absolutely fantastic experience at Halftime Sport Bar in Newark, Delaware! The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming, perfect for catching a game or unwinding after work. The service is top-notch, and their menu offers a great selection of drinks and tasty bites. Definitely a five-star spot!“

“This is an establishment I’ve been coming to for quite sometime. Fallon is a beautiful warm staple here that makes everyone feel like this is home! If you’re looking for good reasonable drinks, exceptional service, good music and good vibes. This is the place to come when in New castle county.“
