If you’ve never been to Bellevue, you might think that its main street, Fairfield Avenue, has always looked the way it does now. But it hasn’t always looked this bustling and pretty. A lot of work went into making tiny Bellevue – about 6,500 people living in less than one square-mile next to Newport – one of the most successfully revitalized business districts in the region.
These restaurants along Fairfield Ave. serve pizza to afternoon tea to late-night burgers to candies, cakes and ice cream. They are all in close enough proximity that you could walk up and down the street, looking at menus and choosing where to dine.
