The Mooring has a large outdoor dining area with lovely views. There's a photo here: http://www.mooringrestaurant.com/moo...newport-ri.htm

Looks nice - where do you guys park when you eat at The Mooring? Is there free parking anywhere nearby or just the $10 lot right in front?

Found out Del's Shandy is a type of beer - we'll have to try that on our next trip. Thanks again for all the tips.

Del's is a kind of Italian Ice, which, in a typically Rhode Island fashion, they call lemonade, which it is not (except there). Put a scoop in beer and I guess you have a shandy -- though I can't see why you'd want to ruin a good glass of beer!
