Clarke Cooke House Reviews
The food was very good. But the older gentleman that is a host was extremely rude and pompous. He acted like we were lucky to be there.Also moved our stroller outside with out asking. Restrooms are very outdated. Not a high end restaurant by any means but is expensive. Not kid friendly. No high chairs. Would not recommend.
The staff was phenomenal! Our first place we hit when coming to Newport, and it was hard to beat that act going to any other place. Loved it, loved it, loved it! 🌼Theresa 🌴& ☀Julie🍀
Fabulous experience. Ralph was super. A real delight to dine there.

The Clarke Cooke House offers an excellent classic Newport atmosphere, with attentive service and amazing food. The vegetarian dishes are superb, and the overall dining experience is enjoyable. The restaurant remains a popular destination for those seeking a taste of traditional Newport dining.
Guests can expect a sophisticated ambiance, with a variety of fresh, flavorful seafood options such as a seasonal scallop special and seafood linguine overflowing with fresh seafood. The clam chowder is a standout, with plenty of clams and a creamy texture. The burger is fantastic, and the vegetarian dishes are equally impressive. Visitors often enjoy the daily oyster selection, with East Beach for RI and Island Creek for MA being favorites. The drinks are reasonable and delicious, and service is attentive and helpful, even when the place is packed, like during off-season Wednesday nights in October.
The atmosphere can’t be beat, making it a great place to get a bar seat and a bite. Reservations for special dinners at the Porch or Skybar are recommended and worth the effort. The restaurant also offers a memorable experience, with the GM sometimes giving tours and treating guests like celebrities. Overall, the Clarke Cooke House provides a wonderful blend of great ambiance, delicious food, and attentive service.
