“The customer service at Ben's is top-notch. And the decor is fantastic for beach-themed properties. I couldn't be happier with both the pieces purchased and the staff. Dave and Hope were great.”
“I wore shorts and a t-shirt to Newport on a recent day trip with friends. It turned out to be much chillier in the morning than I anticipated, so I decided a souvenir long-sleeve shirt would be the perfect addition to my wardrobe.We happened to park near Frazzleberries, which I'd consider a more upscale souvenir shop. They have lots of high-quality goods -- gifts, magnets, clothing, etc. I was looking at a different shirt when a friend pointed out one that was SUPER soft. I tried it on and was immediately sold. The fit, the material, all great, and at a reasonable price. I want to say $35?I also bought a very nice Newport magnet at the checkout counter.A very successful visit!”
“We had such an enchanted walk through this shop! It is an absolute wonderland of colors, textures and shapes. The creativity of their pieces has me oooing and aaahhhing. The person watching the shop was so friendly and I was so pleased to meet them! We got a handful of their individual beads and I treasure them already.”
“My friend and I were so charmed by the art and gift selections. From puzzles to embroidered napkins and more, we kept saying “these are gifts I’d actually want.” And the art is varied and whimsical—we especially loved the solid color + text-based art. I am bookmarking this shop for my next trip to Newport!”

“Highly recommend this place. Needed replacement glass for thermal insert window, which arrived exactly when they said and was installed immediately. As a plus, they helped me figure out how to replace latches on the thermals throughout my house and referred me to a place to buy them. Above and beyond!”
“I would recommend Leeside Antiques to anyone visiting Newport. There is a great variety of items and an incredibly kind owner. I spoke with Cindy for some time about the impressive watch collection she had which she was happy to share about, as well as happy to negotiate on price.”
