50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Narragansett

“I told my server, Sidney, that I hadn't had clam chowder actually in New England before, so was unsure whether to choose classic New England, Manhattan, or Rhode Island. I chose New England because it was the one I was most familiar with. This wonderful server decided to bring me a cup of each of them! I was delighted by her thoughtfulness and by how delicious they all were. I also had roasted oysters that melted in mouth. I will definitely be going back to try other dishes straight from the sea!“

“Travel back to when you rent a movie, grab a beer with some friends, milk and bread for the storm and Leos Pizza all in one plazza. Great food at affordable prices with free CoxWifi for those late night munchy runs. Best Honey Mustard in the world and a chicken parm that would make you slap your mother. Pay hommage to the great roar of the Narra-Gansta's. And yes, you just lost the game. :-)“

“Smoothy Booty has been a staple of mine for a long time. This year under new ownership we have experienced the same quality of food & service that we have had in the past. We have tried out the new additions and love them!! I especially enjoyed the new Mermaids Cove Juice & The Poop Deck will always be a favorite. Way to go!!!“

“Kingston Pizza sits on Boston Neck Road in Narragansett, literally its own small, blue house on the side of the road. Everything else about the place is equally straightforward and literal..
Corrugated metal fronting, chalkboard menus hanging above, a Good Humor ice cream freezer by the door. Drop ceiling with skylights, laminate flooring. Three round stools bolted to the floor at the counter. Behind the counter you can see the deck ovens, stacks of pizza boxes, decorative and some food oriented mascots on the walls. There are booths and tables around the dining area as well as the stools for you to enjoy your dine in choices.
This is a local chain. The Boston Neck Road spot services Bonnet Shores and the surrounding area. As part of the RI FOOD FIGHTS Lord of the Pies event, we went with a Margherita pie.
The pizza came out on a metal tray, about twelve inches across. Firm crust with a golden rim, good color on it. Fresh basil scattered on top, still bright green. Sliced tomatoes visible along with pools of fresh mozzarella. The cheese had proper browning, some spots darker than others where the mozzarella got direct heat.
First bite: crunchy. The crust had real structure to it, snapped when you bit through. This came from a deck oven running hot enough to give the dough some backbone without drying it out.
The tomatoes on top gave a fresh flavor separate from the cooked sauce underneath. Two different tomato experiences. The sauce itself had body, not watery, even coverage across the base. The fresh mozzarella was cooked perfectly, enough browning to develop flavor without getting rubbery.
The basil stayed vibrant because it went on after cooking. Smart move. Keeps the herb flavor bright and aromatic instead of turning it dark and bitter.
New ownership brought in a new, more artisan approach. Fresh dough, fresh vegetables, real attention to technique. You can see it in the finished product. Someone's putting thought into this food.
The interior is basic but clean. Nothing fancy, just functional. You can eat in at the booths and tables or grab takeout. Most people seemed to be doing takeout when we were there.
This is solid neighborhood pizza elevated by better ingredients and better technique. The golden crust delivers. The fresh toppings taste right. Everything works. If you haven't been here since the new owners, it's worth a try.“

“We just stopped for take-out after the ferry back from Block Island: just a short wait, outstanding milk clam chowder and clam cakes (The Combo)!! Have wanted to go since seeing them on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. Will return when in the area to try more!“

“Family run business with the best views of the iconic fishing port of Galilee. When you want to share a taste and pace of local fresh caught seafood with family and friends this is the place!“

“You will never find better authentic Chinese cuisine anywhere on the east coast!! I love this restaurant, it is my favorite place to eat hands down.“

“We enjoyed having breakfast at this wonderful place while in Newport, RI. The people who own it and those who work there are AMAZING, friendly, and take the time to talk to customers while keeping service at the top of their list. They (from the kitchen to the front door) look like they love working there and have created a loving family environment. Of course, the line was out the door and down the street, but that was okay because everyone enjoyed visiting each other. There is just one warning, the portions are enormous. You know when my husband can't finish it, it's a lot. 🤣“

“Cru Café is an excellent spot in Newport. Even when it’s busy, the line moves quickly and service is friendly and efficient. The staff is cheerful, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the food is fresh, fast, and absolutely delicious. A great place worth visiting!“

“Root is a nice vegan spot in Newport with a simple, comfortable setup and a straightforward menu. Nothing fancy, but it feels welcoming and easy to order from. I had the BBQ jackfruit sandwich, and it was really good. The flavor was smoky and slightly sweet, and the texture worked surprisingly well. My partner tried the Arriva grain bowl, which was fresh and layered with flavor without being heavy. Both dishes tasted well thought out and clearly made with care. The menu has a good mix of bowls, sandwiches, smoothies, and baked items, so it’s easy to find something whether you’re fully plant-based or just looking for a healthier option. Prices seemed reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. Service was friendly, and things came out at a steady pace. Overall, Root feels like a solid place to go for a good vegan meal in town. I’d definitely come back for the food, especially that jackfruit sandwich. Updated from previous review on 2025-12-29“

“Love Becky and her colleague“

“Ate here for the first time last night and it was amazing. Food was great, but the service was even better! Very friendly and accommodating.“

“Today we made a pilgrimage to Basil Yu’s restaurant, Yagi Noodles. My son happened to see that Basil had become a successful restaurateur while he was watching one of Guy Fieri’s shows. We had become acquainted with Basil when we were all involved with a Boy Scout Troop in Manchester NH. We were disappointed to discover that Basil wasn’t at the restaurant, however we got over it when we found out it was due to a commitment to a fundraiser for the James Beard Foundation. Basil, You weren’t there, but your food is delicious. You get the Merit Badge! You weren’t there, but your staff is spectacular! You get the Merit Badge! We wish you continued success!

“Five stars for the delicious treats, beautiful breakfast croissants, and flavorful coffee. Five stars for the peaceful outside dining area, and the warm and inviting cafe on the inside. Five stars for the staff who is always so gracious and lovely, minus the one time I was taken aback by the disrespect and unprofessionalism of one of the members. I hope that due to the poor choice of this staff member, that the members’misbehavior doesn’t reflect upon the teams’ sweet and wholesome image.“

“We were vacationing in Newport from Wisconsin and stopped in at Cappy’s. Sue the bartender was friendly and a wonderful bartender. The owner Joe, what can I say….what a guy! Joe saw us walking to our Airbnb and yelled at us on the street asking when we were headed back home. Joe is a gem of a bartender. He has a gift of gab and can hand out the bs too. Nice local establishment with friendly customers and bartenders. We had Dan as a bartender too and he was a friendly, great guy! This place reminds us of our local pub at home where everybody knows your name. Thank you for your great hospitality! It made our vacation so much more enjoyable. Thank you!! LuAnn & Steve“

“The service was amazing!! The food was amazing!! I'm from CT and I'll definitely eat here again when I'm in the neighborhood!!“

“Such amazing flavors was a taste bud explosion! Definitely an under rated restaurant in Newport!“

“Steph and the team at scratch were SUPERB! Our catering order was perfect (tho we were sad the croissant machine was down) every thing was piping hot (or nice an cool). Everything was SOOO good. Ordering was easy, Steph ensured we had a great variety and enough to feed the post-wedding crowd. We did have breakfast here and it was stellar! Any event you need catered, be sure to check Steph and the team out. You will, NOT be disappointed!“

“Fantastic Japanese food, unpretentious, delicious, and a real hidden gem. We've gotten take out many times, but the best experience is to eat in.

Flavors are on point, and the menu is varied enough to appeal to vegetarians and not. In addition to excellent food, they serve beer and sake to go with your meal. This is a restaurant that you should visit.“

“We were her last year and had to stop by again. From North Dakota. Great chill spot. Good music. Good beverages. We’ll be back later this week for their awesome sandwiches. Highly recommend for getting out of the packed places and grabbing a relaxing happy hour.“

“Just wanted to take a moment to compliment the service we received from Amanda! It was pretty busy, the restaurant was at capacity, and she was fantastic! I appreciate a server who does a great job, and she handled our table with a perfect display of relaxed competence. Well done!“

“I love North Koffee! The owners are amazing at what they do and all around great people. I go there so much I needed them at my wedding! They were awesome. My guests loved them as much as they loved the coffee they served! Thank you so much!“

“Just finished great meal. Huge lobster roll, high quality kids chicken and big beefy kids burger. I had the fish n chips which was amazing! Old Bay fries and what had to be a whole Cod! The best part was Peter N. He was very informative, quick in serving the kids which lets Mom and Dad relax. Such a great day and great meal.“

“Definitely try the specials! I got the Wick Fig and it was to. die. for.“

“Absolutely delectable! Every single thing was perfect from the bread & tasty olive oil, to the main meal. Service was excellent. Atmosphere is comfortable & homey. Perfect from start to finish, nice staff & absolutely delicious. Highly recommend!“

“Always great sandwiches. The real deal NYC deli. Today on the specials board was a Nashville hot chicken sandwich. Sweet and very spicy. I loved it. Lots of pickles. And a thick coating of the sauce. Probably the best one I have had. And as usual excellent onion rings.“

“Our go to place for great lattes!“

“Best experience ever, food was amazing, our server Jack was spot on and everyone was warm and welcoming to us and our puppy Opi who was treated like a queen ! Thank you, we will definitely be back and highly recommend Diego’s Newport!!!“

“Nice service and good coffee“

“Beautiful cozy atmosphere (especially during the holidays!) and great food every time! Highly recommend.“

“So good! This place is a little hole in the wall pizza joint with amazing food! I was seriously impressed with their pizza of course but they also have some interesting menu specials like heartland casserole and stuffed pepper soup. It’s more of a take out place but you are welcome to sit down and be waited on. The lady at the front was very nice. We don’t eat down this way often but next time we do, we will be back for sure!“

“food is outstanding, been here a few times and is been consistently great 🤙“

“Cute cafe and bakery. Dog friendly! Indoor and outdoor dining. Delicious food and pastries. Friendly staff.“

“Best pad Thai in RI hands down!!!!“

“Beautiful atmosphere and amazing staff. I have been here a couple times and each time has never failed. I’ve had a handful of different meals and each was cooked to perfection and extremely flavorful. Highly recommend and it has become one of my favorite breakfast or lunch spots.“

“Friendly staff with an amazing selection of crafts beers to choose from. Brewery has an amazing view of the woods and farmland with a great selection of food trucks. 🍻🐐 Huge praise to Heidi who was able set aside a beer for growlers on Thursday 🐢and to Phil who spoke with me over the phone so nicely this past weekend and answered all my questions. (Apologize if I spelled either of your names wrong)“

“Great beer, great food and Steven Demers had a great sound!“

“Very disappointed. My husband says try again on a weekend day. Went Monday 4pm. Food was terrible. Fish was completely dried out. Shrimp cocktail was slimy and sour. Good service. Lovely view. However won't be back“

“Warm and inviting staff creating house elixirs that tantalized our tastebuds Comfortable chairs and couches as well tables and chairs to eat Local musician was playing country folk musicpick up your favorites snack from your choosing and head on over to Sons of Liberty“

“What a fantastic dining experience my family had tonight. Cocktails were superb, my rare tuna tacos were not only the best tacos I’ve ever eaten, it was one of the top 3 meals I’ve ever had. My wife had the rib eye melt which was equally as delicious, and my daughter loved her Mac & cheese and green beans. I started with white chowder which is typically good no matter where you get it in New England, but there’s was excellent. As good as the food was, it was the service from Alexa that made it so memorable. She was friendly and accommodating like any server would or should be, but she went beyond that making us feel like friends and family. Extra kudos to her for being a superstar. All in all, this was a 10+ dining experience even though the best is 5. Back 40 and their sister restaurants are all the best that RI has to offer.“

“Your waitress Juliann is the best!! She has empathy, kindness, generosity and she will go out of her way and keep it real like she loves and cherishes serving folks. She is a sweetheart!!!! Please keep folks like her serving people because she made me feel welcomed and like I was special. She listens and the girl definitely has a gift with dealing with people. We need more waitresses like Julianne with her beautiful self!!!!“

“Always a good time! Great staff,food & atmosphere ❤️. My go to“

“I visited the Portsmouth location for the second time this morning and this is a perfect first date spot imo. The large wraparound deck is so cute & cozy, like a farmhouse porch. & the coffee 🤩 I had a tiramisu latte last time, a cherry Garcia latte this time- I was not disappointed either time, the flavors were accurate without being overwhelming or weakening the espresso, & oh so delicious. The food is even better; the attention to detail & balance of flavor in the dishes is off the charts. I recommend the avocado toast or whipped feta plate, and if you’re not into coffee, their teas and lemonades are just as amazing.“

“Amazing sandwiches! Great spot 🔥“

“Lovely outdoor ambiance, we sat on the corner outside and watched the town wake up. Subtle queer vibes before 8am. Then the line got long. Jasmine green tea was pretty good (7/10) We really liked the decaf coffee (9/10) what a treat. The regular coffee was not noteworthy, but fine. Nitro’s is much better. Great breakfast sandwich, grab and go ready!“

“7.26.25 The beer and the venue are a 5, but the burgers & wings were just not good at all. They serve more than just beer if beer isn't your thing. This place is just amazing. Huge outdoor and indoor seating. The outdoors also has lawn seating with Adirondack chairs besides the 2 level patio/decks. Everything is new and modern, and the landscaping is immaculate. Huge parking lot, too.“

“Great place!! Great people!! Great food!!“

“Friendly atmosphere, awesome beer. Should definitely stop in at the brewery, and ask for at your local beer store. Two of my local stores have started carrying Whalers Rise since I asked about it.“

“Living in the local area, this place is my 'go to' for an inexpensive meal. Service is great, never had a problem with any of the food (I've been eating here for years), & if you sit at the bar like I do - the locals are very friendly to say the least“

“Iced chais, the lumberjack and the staff! Cute place .. awesome vibe“
