"NEWPORT Barring a couple of short breaks (like when the British occupied Newport during the Revolutionary War), The White Horse Tavern has been open for 350 years. It was known as the “birthplace of the businessman’s lunch” in colonial days, when folks in powdered wigs held court over trenchers of bread between rounds of beer. Perhaps related, some people nowadays say they’ve encountered ghosts during dinner here." - anne cruz
