The Wharf John Bannister built was the social and commercial lifeline to colonial Newport, the connector between an active harbor and an enterprising, young town. Today, twenty shops and galleries offer a diverse selection of life's niceties. They are welcoming places where storekeepers have assembled the unusual, the distinctive, the very, very tempting. At the focal point of Bannister's Wharf is the Clarke Cooke House Restaurant, and some say it is the social and gourmet focal point of Newport itself.
