Just one mile south of the Visitors Center, Ocean Breeze Café is the perfect spot for a spectacular breakfast, an incredible lunch, or picking up award-winning gourmet muffins and fresh brewed coffee to go.

Take a walk down Lower Thames Street and you’ll experience the small unique shops and restaurants that define historic Newport. On the corner of Thames Street and Wellington Avenue, on the way to world-renowned Ocean Drive, Ocean Breeze Café has become famous for its award-winning muffins, New England clam chowder, generous breakfast and lunch portions, along with fresh baked breads and signature gourmet coffees and cappuccinos. Celebrating twenty years, the café has been a favorite of locals and tourists alike.

Whether you’re in the mood to sit by the expansive windows along Thames while dining and watch the world go by, or picking up a sandwich and iced coffee as you head to the beaches or the Cliff Walk, Ocean Breeze Cafe has been recognized as a Best of Insider’s Newport winner by National Geographic Traveler magazine.

If you are a treasured customer, thank you for letting us serve you for twenty years.
