In a nutshell
If you're in the area, you must visit the aquarium
Newport on the Levy Entertainment Complex
CJD68 Says: This place has a little something for everyone to do. Restaurants, bars, game area, shops, movie cinema and occasioanlly live entertainment. If you are in Cincinnati or Northern Kentucky you should come take a look.
Dymphna1 Says: OH SO SWEET! They have an array of candies made right there in the store. There were several samples out for a person to try. I then was able to get my gifts for my kids - something that isn't going to sit on the shelf gathering dust - and not spend my life savings doing it....
Dymphna1 Says: This is a shopping mall and more. The theater is in this building as well as the Newport Aquarium. We had a good time shopping in Tala's Distant Treasures. This place has fun things from all over the world. They also have a note up that says that the items were purchased at...
Dymphna1 Says: They have a nice beach walk along the Ohio. There are fairies to check out.
Tom_Fields Says: Here is the perfect place to shop, browse, eat, drink, and just watch people go by. It also offers some fine views of Cincinnati, across the Ohio River.
Tom_Fields Says: This is the finest aquarium in the Midwest. It has examples of many habitats, from the coral reefs to the Amazon to African rivers to the swamps of Louisiana to the Ohio River. It also has fine collections of reptiles and amphibians. So much to see!This is Newport's premier...
miner Says: You can easily spend a couple of hours touring this aquatic wonderland. Especially interesting is the shark tunnel. the guide told us the sharks were actually much larger than they appeared looking through the thick glass.
Riverboat cruise down the Ohio
miner Says: BB Riverboat cruises offer a one hour sightseeing cruise from the Newport dock. we opted for the top deck but the main deck was enclosed and air conditioned. the captain explained the sights along the cruise and gave us a history of the Ohio River and Cincinnati area.
cmcarney Says: The aquarium was great. It was a little pricey, but they do have $1 AAA discount and family hours where kids get in free (check their website for details). http://www.newportaquarium.com/Their displays are really nice and they mix them up so your not just looking at lots of...
Hofbrau Haus: Just like in old Munchen
Tom_In_Madison Says: First Hofbrauhaus outside Germany, just a 10 minute walk across the purple people bridge. It was ok, the beer is better than the Buds and Millers of the world of course, but IMHO not as good as US microbrews--yep, I said it. The brat was ok. Nice atmosphere though, big...
Restaurant Chart House: On the banks of the Ohio River
Maria250 Says: Can't remember what the meal was like I've ordered. I do remember gfs and me enjoyed the food there, the great service, and the marvelous view at the dark sky & black water as Restaurant Chart House is located right on the banks of the Ohio River. Restaurant was very crowded...
Mitchell's Fish Market: One to miss
Dymphna1 Says: The friends I was with were here once. They ended up walking out because it was so bad.
Hofbrauhaus Newport: Outstanding German Cuisine
Tom_Fields Says: One of the best German restaurants I've ever been in (and that's saying a lot) is the Hofbrauhaus in Newport. This is more than a restaurant; it's a local institution. And it's a first-class brewpub. The Hofbrauhaus brews several types of beer, from lagers to wheat beers to...
Claddagh Irish Pub: Awesome pub
miner Says: Ambience sold it for me!! Corned beef and slaw
HOFBRAUHAUS: Great German cuisine

ringleader Says: A wow for great food, a scenic view of the Ohio River Waterfront and Cincinnati from the banks of Kentucky."All fresh, All Quality, All the Time." The food was great... service was good. We were there for lunch. Prices were as low at $7 and as high as $13. The...
Southgate House: Newport's Place for Live Music

miner Says: From I 75 exit at Exit #5 (Newport/Route 8)Follow signs to Newport on the Levee parking garage.
miner Says: the sun can burn you before you know it when on or in the water. Even though I had a pretty good tan ,i still got a little crispy after the cruise on the river boat.
miner Says: Check out BB Riverboat cruises. They have everything from the one hour sightseeing cruise to an all day adventure. They also have brunch and dinner cruises. info@bbriverboats.com Spending a little quality time with my wife
