The Lawn at Castle Hill Inn Newport Reviews
Beautiful location. Good service. Expensive, unimpressive meh food.
Outside setting was great. Beautiful day and if you are there during sunset you will be witness to natural beauty. The service was good. Food, IMO, was nothing special. Lobster roll ($49) was not seasoned and was nothing but lobster and mayo. The

This was my second time eating on the Lawn Terrace. My first experience had us stuffed beside the waitress station and without a view. Why do the worst seats go to the people who make reservations?? This time I asked to be seated with a view and

This place was amazing!! The view was 10/10, the drinks were so good and the people around were very friendly. It is a little pricy, but worth the splurge if you're visiting

Such a lovely lovely dinner from start to finish! The Castle Hill Inn has stunning views that my friend and I enjoyed (and photographed of course) pre-dinner. You could order drinks as well, but we opted to wait until we sat down to start. The terrac
This really was a magical stop.
We came with a group of ten and were all so impressed--not just by the incredible views, but also by the exceptional service from our server, Keaton. While waiting for our table, we grabbed drinks from the bar down by the water and took in the beauti
Love, love, love this place.
The views, the ambiance, the food, the service. Just perfection. It's a must for us each time we are in Newport! Can't wait to go back again!

This is a must for a nice date night or girls dinner in the summer. The lobster roll is delicious. The roll could have used another minute on the griddle but otherwise, no notes. The onion strips on top are a great touch. The fries are tasty. The dri
Ambiance was a 10/10.
It truly cannot be beat and it will now be a staple when visiting Newport. We ordered cocktails, lobster rolls, fish tacos, the burger & the Nashville hot chicken sandwich. I wouldn't say the food was anything to write home about but the vie
Food was terrible.
You are paying the view. Fish tacos were bland. Everyone around us all sent them back. My gin drink had no gin! Go to watch the sunset and grab a drink move on!! 2nd time there tried April and August no difference.Also no reservations at the time we

Came early to get a drink on the lawn and had a wonderful time. Then the sunset while eating dinner was gorgeous. Our server and service were excellent! The food was delicious, especially the crab dip appetizer and cornbread. Vibes were high and I
Nice views but needs improvement to make it a memorable evening.
Our server Kate struggled from the get go. Took one hour to get first cocktails (one was wrong and some add no garnishes. Really, $21 drinks without even a lime? Disappointing). She did not know the details of the specials and said she would ask th
Sunset Dining with Ocean Views and Thoughtful Touches
My husband snagged our 6:30pm reservation exactly one month in advance—right when tables opened—and it was well worth the planning: we were treated to an upscale dining experience with a full ocean view and a breathtaking sunset. The ambiance was
Beautiful view ask for unobstructed view.
The views are breathtaking and the food is actually really good! Surprisingly so. Usually when one goes to a restuarnt with a good view the food is not great because they are trading off on the view. I got a burger and asked if they could sub for
Gorgeous view
Food was good, but pricey. Charcuterie was very small and way overpriced but the meals were nice. View is amazing and fun.
Happy Hour Oceanside
My husband and I took an Uber from downtown Newport (20-min in moderate traffic) to Castle Hill Inn for dinner and drinks. The lawn which is scattered with Adirondack chairs facing the water are first come first serve. We waited 5-min for a pair to o
Worth a visit for great food and views
Food and service were excellent. Expensive but quality worth it. Gorgeous view to accompany the menu that has something for everyone!!
Great lunch spot
A beautiful spot for lunch. Great view, breezy and a really enjoyable. Good food, priced about where you would expect a Newport seaside restaurant to be. Excellent service.
Spectacular Dinner, Service and Sunset!
Last night we enjoyed a fabulous dinner with beautiful sunset views! The staff here are kind and polite from the Valet to the sweet and friendly servers. The manager Erin, found a lovely table with views of the ocean and sunset for us. Erin was graci

It was really cold when we went so we ate inside but we got a seat right by the window so we got a great view. My sister got the fried squash and it was amazing, words can't explain how good they were. I got the lobster roll, it was good but $42, not

This has to be, by far, one of my favorite brunch spots ever! A fun, upscale experience with a beautiful view and a live jazz band on a Sunday morning. We were asked to wait until our reservation time, but were seated right on time, and service w

This is a great spot to go if you enjoy coastal Rhode Island. I always bring my friends here, when they visit from out of town. This is a place you can go in all seasons. In the summer, getting a drink at the outside bar and sitting in the Adirondack

Food was very small and was not worth the price. The view was beautiful but other than that it was just awful here

Didn't do the lawn or dinner but had the a la carte menu from select items at the small bar area - we did come in very late thinking we would just have a drink at the bar but decided to also have a bite to eat - the service was fine and the meal was

I love the dinner service at Castle Hill Inn but I love the lunch service even more for the incredible value it provides. And during restaurant week that value is unbeatable. Great views, great service, great food, great desserts(free!) and afte
Excellent service.
The location is beautiful. Food is delicious, generous portions, and a good selection. The price is reasonable. I will definitely go back.
Perfect place for a sunset cocktail!
What a gorgeous place for a sunset cocktail on a beautiful evening! We did not eat at the restaurant here. Just spent an hour on the Adirondack chairs sipping cocktails, and watching the sunset. There is an outdoor bar or you can walk over to The Law

I called ahead to make sure my dog could sit at the bar with my partner and friends. I was told there is a don't ask don't tell policy and because I have a small 10lb ESA dog, it was fine. I even offered to bring paperwork. 25 minutes later we arriv
Stunning location to sip a cocktail on the lawn
Absolutely stunning location, huge lawn overlooking the ocean, with sailboats. Ordered some high-quality, reasonably priced cocktails at the bar stand on the lawn, and was lucky to find a couple open Adirondack chairs. This is the life. Sipping co
I’ll be dreaming of this evening for a while
One of the most special evenings with my husband. We didn’t want the dinner to end. The coastal New England setting and views of sailboats and lighthouses alone was just spectacular but the food was also a big part of the delight. Our farm salad
This restaurant exceeded my expectations.
This restaurant exceeded my expectations. The setting and views are spectacular, the service prompt and friendly, and the food was delicious. We noticed the freshness and good quality of the ingredients. Also enjoyed relaxing a bit in the lawn chairs
Disappointed by new white chairs (does feel like a chain hotel now)
Disappointed by white, plastic chairs. The old ones were so much prettier! Agree with the last comment.
Ugly new chairs
Really ugly new chairs. Look like you're in a chain hotel. Plasticky white chairs. Miss the wooden, nautical ones they used to have. Horrible design choice.
A True Delight!
Everything at Lawn was exceptional --- from the decor, to the food, to the service. Nothing was routine. No one faltered. From reception, to hostess, to waitstaff, everyone was kind, courteous and professional. Presentation deserves an "A."
Had a lovely lunch with friends on a day trip to Newport.
The ambiance at the inn was exactly what we wanted, the views from the restaurant were gorgeous, and the service was fantastic, our waitress was kind and patient. The food itself was very tasty, we all had some form of the lunch special, which was a

The Lawn at Castle Hill is a MUST during the summer in Newport. This is our go-to spot for drink before heading to dinner. Their marg is a 10/10 and the views are "okay" I guess....If you're up for an little walk, you can also check out the

Absolutely a must do when visiting Newport! It doesn't get much better than sitting in a big Adirondack chair and day drinking ;)
Ambiance is Five Star.
We wanted to just hang out and watch the boats all day. Lunch was simply delicious. Ordered the clam chowder and it was incredibly delicious. The menu was set for fall and I ordered the risotto cacio de Pepe with butternut squash. The risotto was
Nice place for a cocktail
This is so much fun. We had lunch here but enjoyed drinks on the Lawn while we waited for a table. The Lawn is a great place to enjoy a cocktail and unwind. The food was enjoyable even thought it was a little pricey for lunch.
What an amazing place! This was my second time coming here
What an amazing place! This was my second time coming here and it was just as good as the first time. They do have seasonal menus so I highly recommend coming back often to try their other items. We sat outside and although it was super windy this ti
It was really just okay.
Obviously a beautiful location, but next time we will just come for drinks on the lawn outside. For a $500 lunch it was very average. Fish tacos were good but nothing special, probably the least exciting ones of the trip. The clam chowder was the hig
Worth the visit
Outstanding view, food & service. Only drawback to our visit was that it was on a very windy day. Clam soup was very good, so were the fried green tomatoes.
Always great coming back here.
This time had the lobster roll and a Paloma and both were great!
Dine here often.
The food is pretty decent even as the business continues to struggle with staffing. Really like the tandoori chicken entrée and everyone I know enjoys the fish tacos. Very generous portion. Had the steak last night. Don't bother. It was over priced

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to The Lawn at Castle Hill Inn Newport at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the The Lawn at Castle Hill Inn Newport page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
