Had a lovely time during the week. Very crowded on the weekends. Unless you like hanging out with yuppies in pink shorts with labradoodles, don't go on the weekend.
Expected to be Newport's version of Fishermen's Wharf, it turns out to be a rundown area full of touristy shops. Roads are uneven. Not recommended.
Site was nice and clean. I enjoyed the Wharf, I would like to go back when their is nicer weather. I look forward to going back.
What a nice walk down the Wharf to the harbor. We also found they have guest rooms as well. Shopping along the tiny street as well as places to eat, some elegant, others just for a snack.

The Bannister's Wharf in Newport is pleasant to stroll through and there are plentiful shops of all sorts. Fine for tourist browsing.
Main problem is that really can't get a decent view of the Harbor or the water. The buildings and boats literally block the view. Some interesting shops but very crowded at times.
The street is primarily pedestrian traffic and offers a variety of restaurants and shops is a small area. Lots of choices for food, including the Black Pearl and Clarke Cooke House. The Newport Mansions store is also on the corner @ America's Cup Avenue.
