Overview

No building is believed to be more typical of colonial Newport than the White Horse Tavern, with its clapboard walls, gambrel roof, and plain pediment doors bordering the sidewalk. Inside, its giant beams, small stairway against the chimney, tiny front hall, and cavernous fireplaces are the very essence of 17th-century American architecture. A National Historic Landmark, The White Horse Tavern is the “oldest operating restaurant in the U.S.” and is acknowledged as the 10th oldest in the world.
