Newport Rhode Island Restaurants
***JAN 2012 UPDATE: Due to some issues between the property owner and the Pier management, the restaurant has been closed. :(Hopefully they can work it out...this is such a great restaurant in one of Newport's best locations! If they do, we'll let you know. If you asked me which Newport Rhode Island restaurants you should visit while in town, The Pier is definitely at the top of the list. What more could you ask for than great food, drinks, live music and sunsets overlooking Newport Harbor?
Functions/Events Hours of Operation Live Entertainment Contact Directions/Map The Pier recently re-opened under new management (it had been closed for a number of years) and with award-winning Chef Kevin M. Gaudreau. A couple of friends have taken over this historic Newport restaurant (General Manager Charlie Holder and Bar Manager Jay Holder), and since they were such a big part of the success of the Atlantic Beach Club for over a decade, I'm sure they'll do great things with The Pier as well. This was one of the first places I went for lunch when I returned to Newport this summer. I had the Grilled Chicken Panini while enjoying the cool breeze, great view of the harbor and some relaxing reggae music. Now I can't wait to get back up there for dinner. I think the “Pier Platter” (Baked codfish, stuffed shrimp and bay scallops) is calling my name. Although the dish below doesn't look too bad either!
MenusThe Pier's incredible menu has few equals among the other Newport Rhode Island restaurants. With their soups, salads, appetizers, sandwiches, fresh seafood, raw bar, pasta and mouthwatering steaks, there's something here to please every palate.Here's a sample of the many items on the lunch and dinner menus: Lunch

WineThe Pier has an extensive wine list as well, including the finest Champagne and Sparking Wine, Red and White Wine and many other blends and varietals.Functions/EventsIf you're looking for a great location for a private party or event, look no further than The Pier. Their large indoor dining and function rooms, outside waterfront patio, stunning view of the harbor and breathtaking ocean sunsets make this the perfect location!The Pier can accommodate groups for bridal and baby showers, birthday and retirement parties, engagement and holiday parties and just about any other event. They'll even host a clambake for you, or cater a private event at your home!

Live EntertainmentThe Pier hosts live entertainment Thursday through Sunday night. I can't think of too many better spots to watch the sunset and have a few cocktails with friends.And speaking of friends, be sure to check out Mark Gordon of Rock-A-Shop Sound doing the Sunset Reggae Session here on Tuesday nights during the summer!
