The Southern Kitchen has an outdoor bar and seating, and features a post and beam decor with rustic planks making up the walls.

This is a cool, little place on Bowen’s Wharf that stands in contrast to the many nautical themed restaurants that pepper the wharf. I settled on the Wharf Pub, also branded as the Southern Kitchen and Whiskey Bar. Being a resident of Cape Cod, I get my fill of nautical themed eateries and like a change of scenery when I visit other places. Newport has quite a few restaurants offering outdoor seating and menus flush with seafood items. I left the wharf for a little while to take care of work and returned closer to lunchtime. O’Brien’s has ample outdoor seating as well, an important consideration in the crazy summer of 2020.

Or, maybe it’s straight comfort food like the Mac ’n Cheese with smoked Portuguese sausage. Chicken curry might satisfy your palate if you are in the mood for Indian fare, or Jamaican jerk chicken could be what hits the spot, bringing you back to your last Caribbean vacation. Of course, O’Brien’s serves traditional pub fare like burgers, fries, sandwiches, and pizza, but gets a bit more creative as the menu advances. A bit further up the road is O’Briens, which might sound like a traditional Irish pub, but in fact, has a menu that pulls from several continents. For instance, Tin Can Crab Shake tags itself as a Cajun-style restaurant with an Asian twist.

Even being only one block from the wharf areas allows the restaurants on Thames Street to be a bit more creative with the decor and menu. Thames Street also is home to numerous restaurants and lunch joints, some of which break the usual custom of decorating the place with hanging lobster traps, old anchors, and sailing rope.
