Great bars full of local trades people that serve as day-slaves to the Newport crowd. Talk about your hate to go to work bunch! My parents got hooked on the area during America’s Cup, in the late 70’s. I haven’t been there since the late 80’s.
Went there with some buddies for the America's Cup scene in 80 or 83, can't remember now and my T shirt is long gone. Been back for a wedding and another sightseeing visit - had some lunch and drinks at The Castle Hill Inn.
