Being a foodie, restaurants and great food are the first few things I always look up before traveling somewhere. I saved up Easton's Beach Snack Bar in my list when we finally drove from NYC to Newport this past weekend.
We were allowed early check in at our hotel so we were able to make it a Cliff Walk + beach day right on day 1. After completing that famous walk, we finally headed to the snack bar. Social distancing and masks strictly enforced which is very much appreciated.
Got the twin lobster rolls for almost $18 which came with fries while hubby got the $19+ plain lobster roll with drawn butter. WOW. Expectations met and exceeded! These were both incredibly delicious! The bun was toasted perfectly and still warm, the lobster so fresh and delicious, and the mayo was balanced, not overpowering! The fries were also so good! And I normally don't even eat a lot of fries. What also adds up to the experience is the view of the whole beach. So so worth it.
We loved it so much we decided to go back and make it our last meal before we drove back to NYC. This time though I also wanted to try the clam strips and I will say my only regret is not trying these on day 1 because I loved every bit of it and would have happily indulged in more! I guess there's a reason to come back again soon, Newport!
