Boon Street Breakfast License (upriseri.com) — Narragansett's Town Council has delayed a food-service license for The Barge on Boon Street, putting its proposed 2 a.m. late-night breakfast hours on hold while demanding detailed plans for parking, occupancy, and loitering control. Neighbors strongly opposed the 2 a.m. close, citing existing late-night noise, and councilors floated earlier closing times that could shape how late Boon Street stays busy.
