ONE PELHAM EAST
ABOUT
One Pelham East is a cornerstone of Newport's nightlife entertainment, located at 270 Thames Street in the heart of downtown. Established in the summer of 1975, this family-owned venue has been continuously operating for nearly 50 years, making it one of Newport's most enduring entertainment destinations. The venue welcomes a diverse crowd of locals, tourists, sailors, musicians, and artists seeking lively entertainment across three full bars and multiple performance spaces.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The main performance space on the ground floor features live music nightly during peak season, while the third-floor "Top of Pelham" hosts Newport's signature Dueling Pianos shows every Friday and Saturday night—an interactive, high-energy experience where audiences participate in requests and sing-alongs. The main floor also includes game areas with darts, foosball, shuffleboard, and ping-pong, creating a fun, casual atmosphere alongside the stage entertainment. Expect crowds of mixed ages seeking lively entertainment; the 21+ requirement keeps it an adult-focused venue.
HISTORY
One Pelham East opened its doors in the summer of 1975 as a family-owned establishment and has remained under family operation throughout its nearly 50-year history. The venue quickly established itself as a gathering place for the eclectic Newport community—sailors from the harbor, touring musicians, local artists, and visitors drawn to Newport's cultural scene. Over the decades, the stage has hosted an impressive roster of notable artists including Jim Carrey, Bill Murray, Billy Joel, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Jimmy Buffett, cementing its reputation as a destination for both established performers and rising talent.
