Food and Drink | Newport, RI


It will become quickly evident on this blog that we love food.  Good food makes our world go 'round. We've had the opportunity to try out a few places around Newport, and here's a little rundown.

Above is a beautiful latte from empire tea & coffee.  The atmosphere is super laid back and the red exterior just draws you into the place.  We even left with a bag of ground coffee to enjoy at home!

We hit up Perro Salado one night for dinner.  Everyone on Yelp raved about their cucumber jalepeno margaritas and they did not disappoint (one of my favorite margs to date).  The restaurant is set inside an old home and the decor plays into the setting with a mix a quirky and homey touches.  We were there on an evening with perfect weather and managed to snag an outdoor table.  Rainbow lights strung around a giant tree and brightly colored candles scattered throughout the patio?  Yes, please!

We came across Salvation Restaurant + Bar and grabbed a quick drink at their bar.  I was drawn in by their decor, bright and perfectly mis-matched (more photos here). I think we had beer, so nothing to report on their drink and food, but we hope to make it back to test out the grub.


We have no pictures to show for it, but lunch at a waterfront restaurant is particularly enjoyable and allows for unlimited boat-gawking. On one our of next trips we'll be sure to grab a drink at the nation's oldest tavern, White Horse Tavern.
