Katie and her Team are so wonderful to work with and the food is excellent. I just worked with them this past weekend for a non profit event in Portsmouth and they got rave reviews from all our guests. We had over 1000 pp there thru-out the weekend, they had plenty of food and no lines! Can't wait to work with them again! PS-Their chowder is AMAZING!! read more

Chowder is great flavor. Lobster roll was filling with big pieces of lobster. Mac and cheese is nice, hot and cheesy!! Grilled cheese - the use of raisin bread wasnt a great choice. The cheese was not fully melted and the bacon was not cooked to be crispy. Not a fan. read more

This is such a cute and casual spot! The patio is adorable and has both covered and sunny spots. Staff were super friendly. The chowder and lobster roll came in a combo for $33. It was the perfect amount of food for me (I was hungry)! I will definitely come back if I'm in Newport! read more

Staff was unpleasant and not very helpful, however the food was very good. Service included a blank stare when asked questions about the menu. Despite the genZ downfalls, food came through as a VIP read more

Best chowder I have tasted in a while. One of the best lobster rolls in the area as well. They really emphasize on the quality of the lobster meat so its very very light on the mayo. While my personal preference is a little heavier on the mayo like the one served in 2nd beach twin lobster roll this one is still amazing. The texture and the butter on the bread is spot on for what's needed for a great lobster roll. My friend who is a self proclaimed lobster roll expert (no joke he had 5 lobster rolls in one day during our trip) said the lobster roll here is something special. Its right in between Kilwins and Benjamins. The most bustling part of town. Get yourself a chowder and a roll combo. Chow down on some great food while people watching. Enjoy! read more

one of the best deals for a lobster roll and chowder I have ever had! For $33 you can get a cold lobster roll and chowder of choice. I did the seafood chowder which was chunky in the best way, creamy, and delicious. I was pleasantly surprised for a combo that the lobster roll was still the full size, I really enjoyed the roll, the meat was tender and rolls were buttery (however, I would recommend paying the $2 extra for a warm roll as I tried a bite of that and preferred it). Newport Chowder itself is a casual place with some patio seating uncovered and covered, order at the stand and food is brought to you. Service was friendly and decently timed. I will be back! read more

Don't miss out on the "chowder of the century at Newport Chowder! LOCATION: Very minimal seating so I'd recommend coming in at off peak times (weekdays or before/after lunch). MENU: Limited menu items of lobster rolls, lobster mac and cheese, and of course the chowders. I highly recommend getting their roll and bowl combo which is $33 for a lobster roll and a small bowl of chowder. FOOD: The seafood chowder is their award winning chowder and it's well deserved. The chowder was flavorful and thick. The lobster roll was stuffed with a few large pieces but more smaller finely chopped pieces. SERVICE: Quick and friendly service! OVERALL: The roll and bowl combo was such a great deal and I'd get it again! read more

I attended a party that had the Newport Chowder Truck was serving Chowder, lobster rolls and mac and cheese. I am not a fan of lobster, however the Lobster rolls they served looked amazing, others who had them claimed it to be the best they have ever had. The chowder looked, thick and white, as it should be! I chose the bacon studded mac and cheese. I was transported to a place of shear excitement. The macaroni was large the cheese gooey and bacon freshly cooked just for me. It was the best I have ever had, I need to know what they put in there, it was magic. The women running the truck were so friendly, easy going and accommodating. I will definitely be having some more of their food when the opportunity arises. read more

A bit surprised that the seafood chowder isn't classic New England clam chowder. The seafood chowder was creamy, but it wasn't outstanding. The lobster roll on the other hand was very delicious! It had large chunks, wasn't seasoned with too much, and it was very fresh. Quahog was interesting, large, didn't seem to have much seafood inside. Make sure you check the hours of the stand that is downtown before you go! Depending on the season, only the food truck may be open. There is picnic tables, but it was a bit rainy, so we took the food to go! read more

Nice outdoor place. There's a huge sign "Award winning seafood chowder " so I had to try. It was nice and thick. It was good. Could have been a little hotter. I think it would taste better if it was set to. Reg bowl, not a to go cup. The lobster roll was good. We had both hot n cold. I prefer the hot. Service is quick so if you're hungry you'll get you're good pretty fast. read more

Came to Newport for a family trip and found this place. I wouldn't call it a shack but it's not a restaurant. It's more of a grab and go. There is some outdoor seating but very little. I ordered a CT style lobster roll. It tasted really good. Bread could've been a tad better. I didn't get the chowder because it was so hot out. The person behind the register was really nice. Next time I come by I'll definitely come back and make sure to try the corn chowder. read more

Newport Chowder is located in downtown Newport and they have a food truck that moves around as well. The first time I had Newport Chowder was at their food truck. Their seafood chowder is Award Winning. The seafood chowder features shrimp, scallops and cod with their secret blend of spices. This was delicious and there were huge portions of seafood. At their downtown location, I had a bowl of Corn Chowder and their lobster Mac and cheese. This is cream based chowder with corn, potatoes and their secret blend of spices. The lobster Mac and cheese had a good portion of lobster and the Mac and cheese was not too cheesy which is how I like it. The food was very good. I can't wait to come back to Newport Chowder to try other items. read more

While walking along the main drag near the seaport in Newport RI, we found this place for a quick bite. The chowder was most excellent. Some of the best we've had in New England! read more

small, cute, convenient, side of the road lobster roll and chowder shack. Wasn't too busy when I went on a Sunday, but still took a little longer than I expected. The cold one lobster roll wasn't dressed in mayo or anything but the lobster itself was good and fresh. The warm lobster roll was lightly seasoned. I ordered a double and then a combo. They said the double would be slightly smaller, but they all came out the same size....which makes me think that at least one should've been noticeably larger. The chowder was lemony, different from other ones I've had. I thought it was pretty good. It's in a convenient location and I'm glad to have tried it once. read more

Service: the two ladies were very nice and cheery. Very upbeat personalities. They were quick with the food service and patient with my decision making. Food: I ordered clam chowder and lobster roll. They also mentioned it was their grandma's recipe and would not disappoint. To be honest it was one of the best clam chowders I have ever tasted! The lobster roll was delicious as well plenty of lobster and properly seasoned and coated with butter. The bread alone was nice and crispy with a soft and fluffy texture! The lobster roll in the picture definitely had more lobster I was just picking at it to make sure I was flavorful prior to biting into the roll Ladies you definitely did not disappoint; grandma's recipe is 100 percent a hit! Continue doing great things! read more

I tried the corn chowder and lobster roll. We also wanted stuffies but they were out of them. I had to ask for my chowder to be reheated as it wasn't even Luke warm. They reheated it and said 140 should do it- well it was still just luke warm. I had to ask for crackers and the girl begrudgingly handed me 4 packages-i think her f you to me...Everything was super tasty though-would've been 5 if it wasn't for their attitudes read more

The chowder is to die for. I was in Newport for training and during my free time I tried multiple spots. This one, while more expensive it really had the most flavor. read more

Got the lobster roll and corn chowder with shrimp- the lobster roll was the star. Roll had nice big pieces of lobster from the tail and claw. Brioche roll was nicely buttered and grilled and very soft. Chowder was okay but would pass on a future visit. read more

Stop looking: you've found it. 10/10 lobster rolls , both hot & cold varieties. Clam chowder is great, too. Walk up, order, get a number, take a seat, they bring it out. No frills because the food speaks for itself. read more

I've been in New England now for about a week and I would say, hands-down, they serve the best seafood chowder and lobster rolls I've had! During my stay, I've made it a sport to find the best and I found it. You simply cannot go wrong. The atmosphere is casual and no reservation was required. We happened to be walking by, did a quick search to check other reviews, and all those who have been raving did not steer me wrong. If I'm ever in Newport again, I'll definitely make it a point to come back. read more

Great roll and chowder for $33. Fresh and flavorful. Highly recommend for a low key, off the beach lunch.

Stop, drop and lobster roll!! A fresher, sweeter succulent lobster roll will be hard found!! This lobster Al fresco stop is next to Kilwins. You can choose hot buttered or cold and it's all about the lobster.. chunky and full. We came for the lunch special. 2 for $31. This price is outrageous considering quality and location. Ask for a sample of their chowder. Chances are you'll get a bowl. The stuffies are good, a little on the spicy side. Fresh house made pretzels are good, too. read more

What a find! After seeing an ad for a food event at "Hope and Main" I was SOO glad I attended. On this day I was able to hire all my food caterers on that day. All of them created what my guest have told me has been the best party to date. After tasting the Chowder I knew I had to hire this amazing food truck to start my party festivities. I am so glad I did. Over 100 guests enjoyed the most delicious, creamy seafood chowder. The 8 oz serving size was the perfect size (Per many guests!). The addition of a pretzel for dipping made the experience fun and tasty. Katie and Candy arrived on time and were so engaged with my guests. They shared the history of the recipe and even were kind enough to give the "secret herb" package to one of my guests. I would encourage others to hire them and enjoy this award winning chowder!!! read more
