She has opened up a new world by teaching me about my body and how to use it efficiently. I feel muscles now that I never knew I had. When she re-introduced me to PIlates, it was part of a life changing phenomenon which slowly and steadily eliminated decades of back pain. Her laser focus in making assessments about my body then programming my fitness accordingly is as much an art as it is a science. At 68 years old, I feel stronger than I did when I was young. I now have more flexibility, stability and physical confidence than I have in years. She has helped me recover through various orthopedic surgeries with Pilates and other techniques - all more successfully than the required physical therapies. She also takes care of my overall well-being in subtle ways and deeply understands the connection between physical, emotional, and mental health. I feel so lucky to have the benefit of her wisdom, compassion and expertise. She is not just a trainer and a coach but also a gracious role model for living a healthy. full and engaged life. Her daughter Remy is equally gifted and is a master MFR practitioner in addition to an amazing trainer. The studio is a safe, non judgmental haven for people who care about their health and fitness.

After the first visit I was a little sore, but that's expected after such a long time of constant west and tear on my spinal cord.

I go in for a quick check up every week just for a quick realignment and it doesn't even require an appointment. I'm in and out within 20 minutes and I feel better than I have in over a year.

I so badly want to give this place a good review, but…read more.. It's changed hands at least three times in the past 3-4 years...and it's never clear as you drive by if the place is open or not. There's some kind of foil-based window treatment that I assume is supposed to lessen the impact of the direct sun, but it only seems to succeed in making the place so dark it's impossible to tell if there's anything going on in there... The uncertainty about when they're open is compounded by the fact that THEY NEVER ACTUALLY OPEN...okay, that's an exaggeration, but their opening hours are short and seem to be subject to frequent change... It's not clear to me when they last cleaned the place, but it feels like I'm walking into the shared space in a college apartment every time I go in... Their shakes are crazy, crazy expensive (READ: $8....for a protein shake) and, although the staff is really, really friendly...they always seem shocked when I order Herbalife supplies from them...I believe they're an Herbalife supplier, but, apparently, no one told them...I guess. I hope they can get their act together, but so far, no dice.

This place seems promising. I mean who doesn't want a breakfast shake before going to work? WRONG,…read moreif you happen to work before 9am, chances are you'll never get to drink a shake in the morning from here. I do believe the door tag says 8-5, but the woman who runs the place is NEVER there at 8am. ( ..And if she opens at 9 or 10am she's losing a lot of business). Not only doesn't this place open -ever-, chances are once you get into the door you'll have to wait 20+ minutes for a shake. I've decided to boycott this place for the HORRIBLE location, the inconvenience of going on West Main ( Or is it east main?) only to have the place randomly closed is Irritating as hell. Now with all that said you'd expect me to go after 10am to get a shake. Haha wrong. I drove threw Middletown one day after 11am, and she was closed. I had left two hours early for work that day just so I could get a nice healthy shake, but NOOOoooooo she's never open. It's just ridiculous. Knowing how the Pyramid Scheme people are, she probably doesn't want to have someone run her shop without them buying the products themself to sell. It's a god damn shame I say.

Whether I'm meeting friends for a casual catch-up or a "work" meeting, there's always a perfect spot to settle in, both inside and outside. What makes Custom House even more special is their commitment to the community.

One of my favorite parts was grabbing our wine and walking over to the production area to watch the sunset with all of the huge wine tanks in the background. It made for a really unique setting.

I ordered a clam chowder cup and a hot lobster roll.

And they didn't skimp out on the meat too ! The lobster roll was filled to the brim and so delicious. The clam chowder was also incredible.

I went on a rainy Monday around noon and there was still a steady flow of customers. It seems to be a pretty popular spot. The staff is all very friendly. The soups were served to us immediately after paying. The New England Clam Chowder was good. Nice amount of clams and very creamy. I had never had Rhode Island Clam Chowder before and this seemed like the place to try it. The clear broth was surprisingly flavorful but I still prefer New England. My girlfriend and I ordered a good amount and the food came out pretty quickly. My favorite was the kung pao calamari. The squid was fried perfectly and having the sauce on the side was nice as it didn't leave the breading to get all soggy and I had control over how sweet it would be. The stuffed Quahogs tasted good but I feel like I tasted more of the stuffing over the actual shellfish. It still tasted good, but I feel like I should've gotten more shellfish. We were told they ran out of shells to serve them on so the presentation was off, but they were still tasty. The lobster rolls were both good. They were $27 which seems pretty steep to me but they were actually on the cheaper side compared to other places we saw around Newport. The lobster tasted fresh and the bread was good. They were solid lobster rolls. The food was all solid, but for the price I wasn't wowed.

Interior. Fine for solo or group dining.

It had giant comfy couches, tall ceilings, and beautiful, upscale decor that made this feel like a glamorous experience. Our server was extremely personable and knowledgeable, what a delight! He answered our tons of questions and had great wine recommendations for my friend. We got conflicting information from the hostess vs the server on whether food was available and what time they closed, which seemed a little odd. Ultimately I was able to order off the abbreviated trivia food menu, and really enjoyed the Winter Vegetable Flatbread with sweet potato, Swiss chard, kale, and gruyere - very unique recipe with lots of distinct flavors that came together beautifully! The crust was soft and I dipped it in some beer cheese that came with my friend's pretzel (the cheese seemed a little watery to me but had a distinct beer flavor, so bonus points for actually being a beer cheese!) I couldn't tell if a couple of my beers got rearranged on my flight board, so wasn't sure which I liked and didn't. One was smokier than I would have thought it would be but had a sweet taste. The Boch was a bit bitter for my taste. I really enjoyed the White Stout most of all to my surprise - normally a heavier beer is just okay and not the favorite of my taste buds, but this one was so unique in style and crispiness. The beers all seemed very European leaning and authentic in flavor, although a bit on the heavier / less sweet side (fitting for the colder weather but not my personal favorite). The trivia host seemed to have a lot of regulars and the volume wasn't overbearing, I'll have to check it out again and actually play next time.
