20 Best Cocktail Bars in Newport

“Great staff, and great food!“

“Great place with friendly service. Drinks are terrific. Good place to watch the game. Highly recommend!“

“I can’t believe it took us so long to dine here. This is hands down the best food I’ve had in a very long time. Ambiance 10/10, service 10/10 and food 100/10. The street corn ravioli was out of this world. I also tried the peach & prosciutto bruschetta which was savory & sweet and just sooo good. I kept seeing this Bloody Mary type of cocktail going out so I had to order one. This drink was AMAZING. It was called “Caprese my name” which consisted of vodka, basil, tomato and get this…pasta water! Serve in a martini glass with a little mozzarella ball garnish. The most delicious drink I’ve ever had. This place is amazing and I highly recommend it if you’re in town!!!“

“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!!!“

“Had to try this establishment as I’ve heard great things. Let it be known, there oven is gas and I do prefer wood fired, however the dough was good enough to almost make up for it. Surprisingly, it appears to be a Neopolitan pizza, however the pizza had a nice crisp to the crust, not huge, just enough to not make it a soft typical Neopolitan style pizza. So credit to them for being different and the crust was also soft and light, very nice combination. Btw, we opted for a simple Margherita, which is a baseline for judging any Neopolitan style pizza. All in all, we would definitely go back.“

“Loved this little tucked away spot. The ambience and service was delightful! Also the happy hour oysters were some of the best I’ve had all summer . The fries and mussels with curry sauce is my new favorite dish and I had this dish a week ago and I’m pretty sure I’ve thought about it once a day since.

Hope to be back soon!“

“5 stars all around! This place is delicious! Off-season, Wednesday night October, and it was packed. Despite the crowd, our server was attentive and helpful. Highly recommended daily oyster selection and the clam chowder. I enjoyed the featured halibut…. Not sure how often that makes the menu, but if you see it, try it! And save room for the snowball from hell. It’s worth it! Met the GM who graciously gave us a tour and treated us like celebrities. I wish we had more time here… I’d eat here everyday!“

“Beautiful place and good food!“

“Had a wonderful time. Spa was excellent.“

“1st time date night for us. We were met and had Darwin the AMAZING to ourselves. Fall cocktails were delish and menu changes were not disappointing! Bar12 was full when we left.“

“Great location nice big bar with tvs“

“Kelly makes the best Sangria you've ever had 💯⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“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!

“This food truck brings a unique flair to our events. Their dishes are not only flavorful but also visually appealing, adding to the overall experience of our guests.“

“Had a wonderful time. Spa was excellent.“

“Absolutely great food and service. Dined last Saturday evening with two of our teen and preteen grandchildren. All of us enjoyed our meals and the service was on point. This next point deserves mentioning as it speaks to the culture of the establishment: When my granddaughter became ill (NOT food related), the manager came over immediately to help comfort her… she brought hot tea and took her to more private quarters to relax until her discomfort passed. We were impressed and remain grateful for the compassion and level of care exhibited. We will continue to visit again and again in the future. Many thanks!!!“

“Our hostess, Natasha was friendly, attentive and gave us great food and drink recommendations. She was sensitive to our guest with food allergies and checked for each dish what she could eat safely. Special cocktails were unique and delicious. Food was amazing! Thank you for the ambiance, attentiveness and a great meal.“

“I had a fabulous experience last night at Fermentation Class at Forty 1 North! This is a culinary experience not to be missed, attracting locals and visitors alike. I attend each time I am in town and it is always a friendly, welcoming, and enjoyable event, with each class being different and a great way to spend the evening. Each of the five course presentations is an exceptionally composed small bite with the perfect wine pairing! All of the selections last night were outstanding! The time, expertise, and thought that goes into the preparation and pairing is obvious and appreciable. Abbey is a very gracious and informative host, providing interesting details about the wine selections. The Oval Bar is lovely and creates the perfect setting. This is a food and wine experience well worth experiencing again and again whether as a couple, with a friend or small group, or enjoying solo. Wonderful atmosphere, food, and wine! I thoroughly enjoy each unique Fermentation Class every time I attend. Seating is limited, so be sure to make a reservation. Cheers!“
