Things To Do
There are over abundance of things to do in the City by the Sea. One of our locations is Bowen’s Wharf. Clarke Cook House restaurant is a favorite. Enjoy a traditional seafood dish surrounded by traditional nautical decor. Large windows extend open to watch the excitement on the cobblestone streets below. Bowen’s wharf is also home to the Coffee Grinder. Sit on their Adirondack and enjoy the boats on the harbor while sipping a latte. For more ideas, check out www.discovernewport.org
