Reviews
"This is a feel-good fun bar. They have live music every night they are open. Their hours do change as the busy season changes like most of Newport. For an extra fun time, go upstairs and see the dualing pianos. That is always a guarantee good time. I have only had drinks here, which are Newport pricey, and I never had any food."
"So upset! Just wanted to hang out with my girlfriends and blow off some steam. Trying to get in and while I was ready to pay my cover I was talk down to by some 20 year old kid (the bouncer)telling me how I had to wait and pay some other 20 year old girl the cover. Was completely demeaning and insulting. I have spent hundreds of dollars in my local bars and never and never given it a second thought. I have no problem paying my cover, but I will not allow somebody to talk down to me. I strongly recommend not going to the Pelham. The manager of the place came up to me and told me he does not want me in the bar. I did nothing wrong. I feel discriminated against because of my age and my color. I’ve lived here my whole life and never been told this."
"This was a nice lil spot. We got here early in the evening to get seats at the bar so we could have dinner. The pork sandwich was delicious and the burger. Brian was an amazing bartender. He kept our drinks coming and the other people as well. Awesome work, dude!"
"Super fun night listening to Dueling Pianos! Danielle is the best performer and singer on the piano! She can play anything you request!"
"Went with my family, including my 80 year old aunt, for the 7:30 dueling piano show. The show was EXCELLENT. In addition, the manager was AMAZING and moved our seats when he realized that we were supposed to be placed at a high top and my aunt would struggle. When it was raining as we departed, they looked for an umbrella for her and even offered to drive us home. The only thing I would recommend is specifying if it is a high top when reservations are made. The site didn't specify at all. No big deal though as he fixed the issue before we could even mention anything. We had a blast and will be back!"
