Sunday outing. Newport

PAR AND TACKLE RESTAURANT AND BAR
Situated on Harbor Lights’ beautiful, lush grounds, this all-encompass-
ing eatery offers generous portions of its farm-to-table cuisine, generous
pours of its High Summer cocktails and generous views of its bayside
setting. (And don’t forget to check out the poolside tiki bar!) Warwick
BLU ON THE WATER
This local hotspot brings the flavor and heat of Miami to Little Rhody.
Admire the beautiful views of Greenwich Bay while enjoying a yummy
meal (order from the raw bar or try the savory ahi tuna steak) and
bop along to live music on the expansive wraparound porch. The
outside seating area also features glass fire pits and tornado lanterns
which add even more charm to the eatery and bar’s lively environment.
East Greenwich CAFE NUOVO
If you’re looking for a cozy place to enjoy a meal while admiring the
channels of Providence, look no further. Cafe Nuovo is located on the
Gondola landing of the capital city’s river walk, meaning the restaurant’s
outdoor piazza has views of the city skyline and weekend WaterFire
lightings. Enjoy the diverse menu of dinner options like charred octopus,
local oysters, tagliatelle Bolognese and swordfish, lemon cheesecake
for dessert and an extensive list of wine pairings. Providence
CHAIR 5
Summertime seems to spark a need in all of us for ocean views, and why
resist when you can venture to Chair 5 to get your seaside fix served with
a side of premium breakfast, lunch and dinner options? Menu items
include classic morning cocktails like mimosas and bloody Marys, locally
sourced appetizers such as New England clam chowder and an assortment
of savory entrees, sandwiches, sides and desserts, all perfectly placed
in an atmosphere of nautical elegance. Narragansett OCEAN HOUSE
The Verandah Raw Bar sweeps across the south façade of the Ocean
House, Rhode Island’s exemplary five-star hotel in Westerly. Its outdoor
terrace, bequeathed with oversized chairs and low tables, not only over-
looks the property’s croquet court, but also the surrounding waters of
the Atlantic Ocean and Narragansett Bay. Plus, the raw bar has fresh,
locally grown and harvested shellfish — like oysters, clams and jumbo
shrimp, to name a few — that are shucked to order. Westerly
COAST GUARD HOUSE
The panoramic views of waves crashing on to Narragansett Town Beach
are a can’t-miss at this former U.S. Coast Guard station. Luckily, you
literally can’t miss them; whether you sit inside by one of its massive
windows, on the upper deck overlooking the Atlantic, at the outdoor
ground-level bar or out on the rocks in an Adirondack chair, there isn’t
a bad seat in the (Coast Guard) house. Its menu is equally as fresh, with
clam chowder that gets the cream to chunk ratio just right and mouth-
watering crispy salmon seared over rice noodles with baby bok choy in
a mirin sauce. Narragansett
