Came here by accident. The waiter/bartender was amazing with very good service. Good was pretty good for bar food. Now I might have to find this place again if I'm in the neighborhood. read more

I have been coming here for years. The girls behind the bar are amazing. Blair, Lindsey and Amy make the place. Good food, cheap beer, nice atmosphere and great location. The one thing that ruins this place is the owner, well I should say the owner's daughter and her shitty attitude. She is miserable, definitely in the wrong business. She should stay home and let the girls do their thing. As crazy as sounds, I will go back. read more

The chicken cheesesteak is generous and comes with chips and a pickle. Splurge for the fries or Orings you won't disappointed. The service is good and keeps things moving. The oldest bar on LBI is a classic. read more

We visited on a cold Sunday evening. The place was bustling and cheerful, with numerous young patrons playing billiards, and several TVs tuned in to the Eagles game (it may have helped the general upbeat mood that Philadelphia won the game). We were able to get a table, and were approached by a server after a short wait-- surprising considering the crowd. My wife had ice tea and the fish reuben and I chose the cheesesteak with fried onions, along with a $4 16oz Narragansett ale. Drinks arrived quickly, and hot dinners very shortly afterwards. Both meals were excellent, and the service could not have been better. For a neighborhood pub, the food exceeded expectations, and ensured that we will be back, with friends. The only negative was a pothole-strewn parking lot. read more

Great spot that's been on LBI for a long time. Solid bar food, fully stocked bar with a variety of beers, and a great friendly atmosphere. Definitely worth a stop-in for a low-key bar vibe. read more

Luck on our side, saw Chelsea from Joe pops, we loved it there w her a couple years ago. Same fun vibe just a couple streets over!! Much better roast beef Sammie's at this place though!! Friendly reminder, cash is king at this old time rock n roll establishment. Good stuff read more

Really homey place to catch a game. Food was good and reasonably priced, which is hard to find on the island. Not a lot of seafood, more pub-type food. read more

Baker's Port Hole is a solid stop any time of the year. In the summer you can sit at an outside table under an umbrella. In the winter it is warm and comfy inside with a fireplace. The food is very satisfying with a wide variety of pubish offerings. My favorite go-to is the Chipotle Chicken Cheese Steak sandwich. The steak sandwich is also a favorite. Remember it's cash only, but there is an ATM available. read more

This place is a Dive bar with excellent food, very good beer selection & the wait staff was top notch, seemed to have a lot of locals that were very cool!! Pool table was very nice!! read more

Had another great dinner & experience at the Port Hole. Their roast beef, cheesesteaks and their specials can't be beat. But it's the staff, ambience & service that always bring us back. Blaire, Lindsay, Jess and the gang do a great job whether behind the bar or serving in the dining room. It's a real "Cheers" atmosphere; welcoming and familiar. We've been coming for years and hopefully will be for years to come. read more

The food was delicious! The roast beef sandwich and the fish tacos were our selection for our first visit. service was excellent and prompt. We went right before the lunch rush so even better. This place is hoppin'. Family friendly and my service pup was able to relax under the table after her busy morning at the beach. This place has a real home town bar/restaurant feel. we will definitely return. It was raining a bit so we sat inside but plan on utilizing the patio next time. A definite must visit! read more

Best dive bar we could find during off season. Great drink deals. Cash only. Fried mac and cheese bites were INCREDIBLE. Went back and got them a second time. read more

Fun locals' bar. Good vibe inside. Friendly, efficient service. Spicy green beans are a great starter. Also had the famous roast beef sandwich. Added provolone and got a side of horse radish. Was it as good as I had heard? No. A little lacking in flavor. But it was good. And lots of meat. And served hot. read more

This is an iconic bar on LBI. The food over the last 2 years has gotten very good. Bar food selection simple and tasty. The barmaid Amy is a complete sweetheart always welcoming. Great local crowd who is friendly to the visitors. read more

Stopped in while passing it not realizing how hungry we were. First time inside after passing it thousands of times. WOW, if walls could talk. I felt like a kid again before LBI became the LBI it is Post Sandy... I can imagine all the Baymen of yesterday belly-ing up to the bar and drinking away their nights. Although the inside isn't all loungy and tapas like, it doesn't want to be, nor NEED to be. It's EXTREMELY clean inside and nostalgic. We will be back for sure. My wife and I started with shrimp poppers which were awesome and we both had their 'famous' roast beef which was piled high on a VERY soft kaiser roll with awesome pickled (?????) red and green sweet peppers which added an amazing compliment to the sandwich. GREAT STOP!!!! read more

Don't even bother getting the menu, unless you are undecided about sides. GET THE ROAST BEEF SANDWICH. Once you do, you'll be hooked and have to stop in every time you're on LBI. This is a "locals" bar, but they are courteous to us summer visitors. I was hangry and needed something before the traditional Bay Village shopping trip. The tender juicy roast beef sandwich on a perfect hard roll comes with au jus to dip. You can get cheese too (I did provolone). We also shared a basket of fries that came out piping hot. Dipped the fries in the au jus too! You won't be disappointed with this sandwich. Sorry, was so anxious to eat, I didn't take a photo....next time. read more

Great food and service with nice outside seating! Everything our party ordered was delicious.

#portholecafe #boomerbitchreviews Talk about the 'Local Yocal' place, have been coming to LBI for quite some time. So many pretentious places in LBI so to find this diamond in the rough was fabulous. Cash only, packed bar scene with the local people. Famous for roast beef sandwiches, I don't personally eat red meat but my partner LOVED his sandwich. My food has always been good. Service is fun and friendly. Grab a drink at the bar, watch some sports if you like, it's all good at Port Hole Cafe. #portholecafe #boomerbitchreviews read more

Stopped in here this past Friday evening with two of my good pals, we were all staying in a house in Surf City for a brief reunion. Our Uber driver earlier in the day had recommended this bar, so we walked 25 mins from our house to the bar. When we arrived, I asked about the pool table they're supposed to have and apparently it was taken out for the season! This was disappointing as we were there to shoot some pool and drink beers. We sat at the bar, pints of summer ale were 5$ and the bartenders were great. The other patrons of the bar ranged in age, the bathrooms were clean. Overall OK spot. read more

Great service and friendly staff Great old town bar and restaurant I was told one of the oldest in the area

You're not here for the service. Beer's cold. Wings, are great, still serving that same old RB sandwich, get Xtra horseradish. Great dive bar. read more

I love this place, it's a new LBI favorite! Great food, excellent service, and nice laid back atmosphere. The beach is right down the block, you can see it right from your table. And yes, they are open for outdoor dining amid COVID-19 craziness. PS: Pay no mind to all the lackluster millennial reviews below about the food. This is excellent, old fashioned, reasonably priced, non-greasy bar food, not some fancy hipster bar or a 5-star restaurant. Casual night out with a drink. If you want fancier cuisine, get a better job & look elsewhere. read more

Bartender was nasty and rude won't be back. She said all of 1 word the whole time , shouldn't be a bartender.

Had a nice family dinner here. Mom wanted to go, I know I had been here at least once before. Walking in I did recognize it. Bar to the back with tables around. Very much a locals place, not in a scary way, you can just tell pretty much everyone there knew each other. We grabbed a table, and once again Miller High Life bottles. Always gotta give it up to a bar with the courage and fortitude to serve the champagne of beers. We also grabbed some wings which were absolutely delicious. The Sandy sauce was good, I'm guessing it is a blend of everything because it had a tiny kick, but also a garlicky bite. This place is known for its version of the French dip, so how could I not try it? I got mine with provolone cheese. It comes with the normal roast beef on a kaiser roll with sweet peppers. The peppers are actually served next to the sandwich so kinda up to you. I thought the peppers and cheese went well, the au jus was delicious. I cleaned that plate. Also tried the Colorado fries. These are easily skippable. They are just those coated fries, nothing special. The place itself was nice and clean. The waitress was attentive and everything was good. Nice spot. read more

A delightful little bar/restaurant for the locals and visitors to LBI. The service is always warm and friendly. The food is beyond typical pub grub! A family-owned business that has been here forever! read more

Only place I will go during the summer unless it's to work. It doesn't have "LBI" prices as we call them which are hiked in the summer for vacationers and the food is good. With covid they are making it work outside and it's clean and well done.. as someone who lives here it's good to have a few spots left we can go and grab food and a beer that is not hyped up. read more

For 2023 they do not take names and on LBI the place is packed so it ends up being every man for himself absolutely laughable. The food is good the wait staff is rotten I've seen McDonald's run better. I come from corporate America ive seen my share of well run restaurants and this one ain't it. read more

this place was homophobic towards my friend. they didn't serve us because she expressed herself as bisexual. we've been here for an hour and we still haven't gotten our food. we are trying to be sassy bitches by getting salads only to absolutely slay the day... still no service. read more

Very clean and quick service. Free parking behind the building. Food was okay not crave-able good just satisfying. Chicago fries didn't have much flavor and chicken cheese steak was kind-of plain. Ordered peppers and onions on my cheese steak barely got any. Was not bad just lacked overall flavor. read more

As a local to Ship Bottom, I can attest that this is a true local dive bar. There is nothing fancy about it, but sometimes that is exactly what you're looking for. Their prices are very reasonable on an island that is generally expensive because it is a tourist destination. You can go in for a quick drink and bite to eat or hang out for a while. There is a large bar to sit at as well as tables if you choose. They have a pretty basic bar menu, but what they do, they do pretty well. The sign outside of the bar boasts "world-famous roast beef sandwiches," which is my go-to meal, along with onion rings, when I come in for dinner. Now, world famous may be a bit of a stretch, but they are very tasty. The onion rings are also delicious. They have a full bar, but in my estimation, it is a beer/wine/simple cocktail (think whiskey ginger) kind of place. read more

Looks can be deceiving!! Really cute "local" bar with lot of old furnishings. We stopped in as a friend told us that we had to try their Roast Beef sandwich and we weren't disappointed.
