As a child, I loved going to Rod's Grill with my mom (before becoming a vegetarian). A Rhode Island favorite called a hot wienie all the way (mustard, raw onion, and meat sauce) is a staple item on the menu. Of course, it's great with fries and a coffee milk. This is a classic diner that has been serving the community for many years. It is also a great place for breakfast.

Hunter House is one of the finest examples of Georgian Colonial architecture from Newport's "golden age" in the mid-18th century. The house was built and decorated when Newport was a cosmopolitan city with a principle of religious tolerance that attracted Quakers, Baptists, Congregationalists and Sephardic Jews. The great mercantile families lived patrician lives, building harbor-front mansions overlooking their trading ships, and entertained in grand style. They bought furniture and silver from local craftsmen and were the patrons of such important early painters as Robert Feke and Gilbert Stuart.
