[NEWPORT]
Brix Restaurant
Order farm-to-table, family-style
meals for two or four people, pickup
curbside and dig in! Meal options
vary by day, but may include a burger
bundle with Aquidneck Farm beef
burgers, topped with Swiss cheese,
house bacon, smoked onion jam and
greens on a soft roll, alongside hand
cut fries, baked beans, bread and
butter pickled veggies plus whoopie
pies for dessert. Daily-made options
include sticky pecan rolls, a DIY
nacho kit, root vegetable stew, New
England clam chowder and chocolate
chip cookies. Plus, we’d be amiss if
we didn’t mention the estate-grown
wines — red, white or rose — but no
matter which you choose, you can’t
go wrong here.
WHEN TO ORDER: Family-style
dinners and beverages are available
for curbside pickup Thursday
through Sunday. You may also order
just beer and wine for pickup on
Tuesday and Wednesday, only.
HOW TO ORDER: Order and pay in
advance and wait at least thirty
minutes before picking up your meal.
The last order is taken thirty minutes
prior to closing.
THE DRINK SITUATION: You won’t go
thirsty here; it is a vineyard after all.
Plus, on-site Taproot Brewing Co.
fulfills your brew needs. Purchase
six bottles of wine, and get $6 off
your total. Or, purchase a case and
get 15 percent off your case order.
INSIDER’S TIP: Ask the staff for
recommendations. They know their
estate-grown wines well.
