The Bad Penny
Newport Town, Vermont $
The lowdown
A motorcycle-themed bar that opened in November 2025 on Route 105 west of Newport City, in the old Wayne's Snack Bar building. Owner Penny Truax started with a short bar menu of burgers, hot dogs and pulled pork sandwiches; there's a pool table and dance floor, with bike nights, car shows and cornhole and horseshoe tournaments planned for the warm months. Everyone is welcome, riders or not.
