Review:
Locals say that Thames Street is the center of all action in Newport. Only about mile and half long, this lively Newport street is lined on both sides with colorful, thriving shops, bars, restaurants, museums, and charming historic homes. It starts where Farewell and Poplar Streets meet and ends at its intersection with Carroll and Morton Avenues.
The street is a convenient home of many popular bed and breakfasts, and it provides access to the marinas and Newport Harbor. The best way to enjoy the street is to sit at one of many outdoor cafes or bars and watch people passing by. Of course, there is always shopping. Map
