What the locals say....

"For dinner, our favorite spot is Salvation Cafe on Broadway. It has great Thai food, a hip atomosphere, easy free parking and great drinks. We then walk to Pop, which is a trendy bar only a few steps away for an after dinner Espresso Martini"
-Sean, 38 - Anne Street

"Everybody goes to First Beach, but my favorite is second beach. Parking is easier and it's always less crowded. "
-Sarah, 21 - Spring Street

"Saint Paul's Thrift store on Broadway is great. You can find high quality, local items for less the price than Salvation Army. Next door is an amazing used book store with books stacked to the ceiling.
-Rob, 34 - Providence

"Angel's Nails on Thames does a great manicure or pedicure for great prices and they always get you in "
-Emily, 38 -Warner Street

"Fasnet Pub on Broadway is a cozy Irish pub that always has the game on. It's the only place in Newport that shows international rugby or soccer matches.
