St. Patrick’s Day In Newport-Bars, Cover Charges, Opening Times And Entertainment
What Time Do Bars Open On St. Patrick’s Day? What Is The Cover Going To Be? Who Is Playing?
The Newport Buzz has the answer to those questions and more!
Here we go! St. Patrick’s Day is finally upon us!
Cover charges are often subject to demand, so big lines = higher cover. With a 60 degree sunny day forecast, expect a LOT of big lines. Those of who who wish to avoid these crowds are welcome to take a scenic tour of Little Compton for the day.
Are you a smartphone owner stuck in line for a bar that doesn’t seem to be going anywhere? Check in on the Newport Buzz on FACEBOOK and @NewportBuzz on Twitter. We will be receiving updates from bars and restaurants all day, so you can know who has a line and who doesn’t.
If you’re on Twitter, use the hashtag #NewportBuzz to alert us and our fans to your breaking news, antics and photos!
So here it is. It took a lot of hard work running around Newport to put this list together, bouncing from bar to bar in a process that was a bit less fun than you are probably imagining it to be.
Assume that opening times are a reflection of the location’s warmness towards Parade Day enthusiasts. (8am means you’re welcome. 5pm means that you can go take your money and stick it…in some other bartender’s hands.
