    Honestly, this wasn't our first choice for breakfast. We originally planned to go somewhere else, but that location had a bunch of emergency vehicles outside, so we decided to head to Belle's instead--and I'm so glad we did. To get there, you walk through a shipyard where you can see boats and yachts being serviced, which I thought was pretty cool. The hostess greeted us warmly and seated us outside. With the weather being nice, we had views of the harbor, the boats, and the bridge. Our server was also incredibly friendly and brought our coffees out quickly. The food here was excellent. I had the corned beef hash with eggs over easy--solid choice. But the real standout was wifey's dish: Belle's Benedicts with crab cakes. The crab cakes were honestly some of the best we've had in a long time. If you're in the area and looking for a great spot for breakfast, definitely check out Belle's.

    Food is amazing! Make sure you sit on the counter to enjoy the view! Service is fast and smooth.

    Service: nothing necessarily special about it, we waited about 20 minutes to get seated for four during a Saturday at 1PM which if you ask me that's not bad at all. Food: honestly super good, they also had an option of a lobster roll for $34 which I personally think is cheap in comparison to spots in Boston etc Ambiance: we were sitting outside next to the water it was honestly so beautiful I would definitely come again!

    Spending the weekend in Newport and swung by for a late breakfast/early lunch. I was relieved to discover that although their breakfast specials only go until 11am, breakfast and lunch are both served all day! :) We arrived around 1pm, and the wait time was about 35 minutes. Not a problem as there's shaded areas to sit or walk around while you wait. There's both indoor and outdoor seating- outdoors you're literally immersed in the harbor and eating like 20 feet from boats and the ocean! Food was so tasty- my sister kept raving about the Shipyard Sandwich. The croissant was soft/warm/flaky and the eggs were cooked perfectly (although she wished the yolk was a little runnier). The salad has breaded chicken nestled warmly under the bed of greens! Perfectly crispy, the capers added a great bunch of flavor, and the tomatoes added a nice touch. The burger was soft and juicy, and cooked exactly how I wanted. The mimosa was delicious, but quite small for $14. The glass wasn't even filled up halfway.

    Belles in Newport is such a special spot! The breakfast is absolutely amazing, and the ambiance is unbeatable--being right in a shipyard gives it such a unique and charming coastal vibe. I had the French toast, which was delicious and perfectly done, and paired it with a mimosa that was just as great. Everything from the food to the setting makes this place a must-visit when you're in Newport. Can't wait to come back!

    My family and I had a great experience at Bell's Café in Newport. We waited 45 minutes to be seated since they do not take reservations. And once we had ordered our food, it took about thirtyish minutes to arrive to the table. The ambience and outdoor scenery Was great! Service staff hosts and bar staff were also pleasant. The food was good, nothing to write home about, but definitely the Newport vibe. And the prices were very reasonable, especially for the area that it's in. Keep in mind that they do not have traditional style parking so you either have to park using the street meters or find a day rate lot. Overall, the best things about bells Café, where the staff and the scenery !

    What a spot! Walking in, the views were lovely and the seating areas were so chic. The staff were super friendly even while they were busy. Then, to top it all off, our brunch was so yummy. Baby was happy with his pancakes, and we were with the crab cake benedict and yardbird panini. But my favorite part of the meal? The french toast muffin- even had to grab one to go!

    Cute brunch place but tad on the pricier side. It's nice to be near the waterfront though. The crab ($40) and lobster ($50) Benedict / roll was tasty!

    Lobster Benedict.

    We were in Newport for a wedding and were staying downtown, which allowed for us to walk everywhere for meals. Over a four day stay we ate at Belle's every morning because the food was amazing and the service was equally exceptional. The lobster rolls were delicious, the pancakes were perfect, and my soft scrambled eggs were cooked to perfection. I included a picture of the lobster Benedict which tasted excellent. The restaurant is in a shipyard which makes for cool sightseeing as you're walking through the yard as different vessels are being worded on. This will be one of the best dining experiences you'll have while you're in Newport. We were here in the middle of April before the busy season. We leave tomorrow to head back to California, and of course we're having breakfast again at Belle's before heading home.

    This was our favorite breakfast spot while in Newport! Located in the Marina and you actually get to walk through the boat section! So fun seeing how large boats are out of water and up close! There was a long wait, we waited for 1 hr 15 mins but honestly worth it. There are couches to hang while waiting and the weather was perfect so we were not complaining! We got to watch a few boat teams prep and set sail, so cool seeing that! The food all looked amazing watching everyone's come out! We already knew what we wanted by the time we sat down lol Pancakes were great and the Lox sandwich hit the spot! We also had a burger which was cooked just right. Even though the wait was long the hostess was keeping us updated and staff was all very nice and efficient! Overall great experience!

    September in Newport... Easy to get a table but the long, lingering sun of summer. Belle's didn't disappoint! And those big boats!

    Buttermilk Pancakes

    Had a great experience at Belle's! Our server was super nice and helpful, when we asked if it was "too crazy to get a side of lobster with the buttermilk pancakes," she didn't even blink. Total judge-free zone, and she made it happen! The pancakes were tasty, and the lobster was absolutely amazing. Loved the outdoor seating too, can't beat that waterfront view. Would definitely come back!

We had super-friendly and super-efficient service ordering an espresso tonic, chocolate malt float and blood orange hibiscus tea (such a delectable purple-red color!) All three beverages were sipped to the very last drop! Special thanks for also stocking the fridge with bottles of Diet Coke. Not enough cafes/coffee bars offer this soda option and sometimes, a gal has to have her Diet Coke! The Nitro Bar is a cheerful place to sit and since we were fortunate enough to find seating, we decided to share a grilled Asiago bagel and ricotta toast with heirloom tomatoes. Yummy x 2, and just enough snacking to tide the three of us over until a late lunch. We've been to the Nitro Bar on Pond Ave. in Newport and Broadway in Providence -- never disappointed with beverages/food but be prepared to wait In a line most of the time.

    I grew up in Middletown but I hadn't been back to the area in at least five years. This seems to be…read morethe locals' place. Today's servers were a mother/daughter team and they seemed to know everyone who came through the door. There's no substitute for that feeling, a sense that you belong. It was neat to observe, the sense of familiarity and community. Even old, curmudgeon-y guys like me were welcome there. The service was quick and friendly and the diner fare was familiar. Their omelettes are cooked on a flat top. That makes for a flat, folded style omelette. It serves perfectly well for enveloping your choice of fixings. There is a RI twist to it, the choice of a chorizo omelette or chorizo served with eggs is a nod to our Portuguese neighbors/immigrants. Breakfast and coffee hit the spot. I also think the friendliness of the place had a lingering effect on me. Driving around and stopping at familiar places like 2nd Beach and Sachuest Point, the nostalgic ache came harder than I anticipated. Aquidneck Island is stunningly beautiful and it will always have a place in my heart.
