The Barking Crab Seafood & Bar, 151 Swinburne Row, Newport, RI
Newport’s Barking Crab is an outpost of the iconic Boston Harbor restaurant of the same name. After the massive success of the first Barking Crab — which opened in 1994 on Boston’s historic Fort Point Channel — a second was opened in 2008 in historic downtown Newport. Both serve up seafood and cocktails in vibrant digs with a raw bar and patio.
