WARWICK, R.I. — A beloved piece of Rhode Island’s past is making a comeback. The Rocky Point Chowder House is set to open soon in the food court at the Warwick Mall, bringing back the original recipes that so many locals grew up with.
The announcement came from Warwick Mall General Manager Domenic Schiavone in late October, who said the addition reflects the mall’s commitment to supporting local businesses and community favorites.
For decades, Rocky Point Park was a cherished summer destination on the shores of Narragansett Bay, a place filled with laughter, rides, and Rhode Island comfort food like clam cakes and chowder. While the amusement park closed years ago, the memories live on, and now, so will the flavors.
The Rocky Point Shore Dinner Hall was one of Rhode Island’s most beloved seaside landmarks and a central feature of the historic Rocky Point Amusement Park in Warwick. For more than a century, it served as the heart of family outings, friend gatherings, and community celebrations along Narragansett Bay. Known for its long, communal wooden tables and lively atmosphere, the hall could seat thousands of diners at once and became famous for serving traditional New England favorites.
