The 17th annual Newport Restaurant Week begins this Friday, Nov. 3, and continues through Nov. 12. Featuring ten days of culinary experiences, the event offers a variety of deals and discounts, including tastefully crafted prix-fixe menus, gift card promotions, BOGO deals, complimentary add-ons and more from over 50 participating restaurants throughout Newport and Bristol counties.
Fusing autumnal flavors into farm-to-table and dock-to-plate dishes, this season’s restaurant roster offers a range of experiences from the Beehive Brunch Date featuring buy one, get one 50% off breakfast or lunch entrée on their Restaurant Week Brunch Menu, to a 5-course tasing menu at Giusto Newport.
The perfect pairing of dinner and a movie returns for its second year with the
Foodie Film Festival at the Jane Pickens Theater; offering a unique mix of seven films from the new documentary
The Common Ground, to food classics like
Big Night to family-friendly films like
Good Burger. “Cinema and dining go hand in hand, and we hope this pairing will inspire visitors and locals to ‘get out on the town’ and enjoy the amazing culinary and cultural experiences Newport has to offer," comments Jane Pickens Theater owner Kathy Staab.
