Lovely and clean inside, well-styled..... which is why I was first surprised to find pre-packaged tartar sauce that came with my hubby's (very clearly made from frozen) fish and chips. The bacon/blue cheese burger was just so-so. It was also a little off putting that the chef/owner was on his cell phone in the dining room when there were no orders. The highlight by far was the french fries..... imagine if a steak fry and a curly fry had a baby.... nice and crispy on the outside, while perfectly done on the inside. read more

Harbor Bar - Fish and chips (top) and bacon blue cheese burger (bottom). - Beer Bar Near Me - Ocean Shores, Washington

Visited on around 5 PM on a Thursday in November. Place was packed. On a Thursday. In November. In Ocean Shores. This is very good news!! * Location: Perfect location on the north end of the tourist retail area on Point Brown, across the street from the ice cream shop & go karts. * Interior/decor - Neat, clean, bright. Wrap around bar seating, counters at the window, a few tables, two dart boards, jukebox and ATM. * Service - We were greeted when we walked in, found three seats at the bar (all tables were full). The person behind the bar gave us menus, asked for our drink orders and reminded it was cash only. * Food - limited menu (see photos). We had burgers w/chips (thick cut curly fries). Really good, fairly priced. I had the Harbor Bar + cheese & bacon, other two peeps had the mushroom burger. 5/5 napkins all around. * Drink - 4 beers on tap. Large selection of canned beers under ice. * Price - Fair & reasonable. $14 for bacon cheese burger + fries, $6'ish for a pint of beer. Cash only. There's an ATM on premise. Ocean Shores needed a place like this. Good food, fair prices (lower than average I think). Zero disrespect to the other burger & beer places in town. More options = more business = more visitors = WIN! The owners are transplants who had a business near Astoria, OR. They saw an opportunity here in Ocean Shores and thank goodness for that! The lone downside is they're cash only. But if you read this review then you know it's cash only and won't be surprised. read more

See all

Burger was soggy and fries were okay. My favorite part about the meal was the pickles but the real crazy talk was when we ordered from the the owner my husband said he wanted the bacon burger and asked what kind of cheese they had and the owner said American, we are from America. Who says that? read more

The food was the best in town..Service was excellent, prices were affordable.. Highly recommended this place.. The Atmosphere was great as well . read more

Well, I now understand the rationale for the positive reviews. The Bacon Blue burger is fantastic! An added corollary is the fries: curly, well seasoned and well done. Now, to the important issue: libations. Lazy Boy Amber...back up the truck and take some home. It will curl your toes (to go with the fries). I infer that this may be the new local watering hole, in addition to being Burger Central. Well done! read more

This is a nice addition to the limited selection of restaurants in Ocean Shores. Cash only, though.

We loved this little spot. Sat with the owners and chatted for a bit and played darts. Good food, cold beer, and sports on TV. What more could you ask for? Check them out when you're in town! You will be getting my Ohio State towel soon! See yall next time! read more

Nice bar and location. Good friendly service but they are cash only. Yes there is an ATM but it costs. Poor selection of beers with no stouts or porters. We tendered some positive feedback which wasn't well received. Several folks commented that the bar food was good read more

Food great! Service outstanding! Impromptu music excellent! Who goes to a bar and gets a pop up concert! Thanks HB and Dave Cordell!!

My dad and I stopped in seeking a local seafood lunch. Steamed clams and peel n eat shrimp did not disappoint. So delicious and paired with lovely service. Highly recommend when you're searching for a seafood place in Ocean Shores that's not so touristy. read more

Perfect addition to Ocean Shores! Harbor Bar is a brand new start up cocktail and food venue here in Ocean Shores, located right in the middle of the Point Brown business area. There is parking in front and additional parking in the back, just off of Minard St. There is a nice outdoor seating area as well on the Minard side of the building. The atmosphere is upbeat and the decor is clean and pleasant. My wife and I are dive bar enthusiasts, but also love fine dining. The first thing I would do before coming here is to hit your cash machine, because this is currently a "cash only" business. They do have an ATM on the premises, but it costs $3.50 to use. This was our second visit, so we were prepared! The pricing is considerably cheaper than other comparable venues, with the Bacon Bleu Cheese burger coming in at $14. The other pubs and restaurants in town price their burgers at around 18 to 19 dollars and to be honest are not as good. I am a Bacon Bleu Burger fan of the highest degree and the Harbor Bar version is my new favorite. The patty is not over handled like a couple of the other places, but rather perfectly formed, tender, moist and delicious! The Bleu cheese is the high end crumbled variety and the bacon is perfect! There was no lettuce or tomato provided, but red onions and pickles were on the side. Perfect for me! The bun was steamed and buttered... but had a nice crispy finish. Every component was perfect. It came with house fries, which were crispy, well seasoned and tender in the middle! I loved them!! I got to meet the owner/chef, Mike, and he was a great guy who cares about the food he is delivering to his patrons. The menu is small, but packed with pub favorites! The service was good and the place was busy!! There are a lot of locals hanging out, which is a great sign! They kept the music at a good, enjoyable level and it was nice, because there are speakers built in to the walls everywhere. You can still have a conversation easily or enjoy your favorite song. There were a lot of happy people here when we visited! read more

The food was good and the restaurant was clean. Ambience and attitude left something to be desired. The lady that served us was not very happy and did not smile at us the entire time we were in there. There were also several signs that indicated to me that the owners are not good at customer service and don't necessarily like people that much. The sign over the urinal in all caps stating STOP PEEING ON MY FLOOR! seems unnecessarily aggressive. They also have a lot of signs up about not liking stupid people and about thinking before you speak. Just saying not everybody is cut out for customer service. They are cash only and there is a high fee on their ATM. read more

Cash only. Food is average. When asked why cash only they said they don't want to deal with debit cards. And pointed me to their cash machine. That they fill and keep the transaction fees. Anyone doing a cash only business and stocking their own cash machine has something to hide because it's not about customer service at that point. I recommend going down the street to either Porthole or Copalis Cove. Both accept cards....like most business. read more

Cash only is something I am used to. Paying tax on top of the beer price is not. When you say its 4.00 a beer, then come back and say its 4.40, is not expected. The locals seem pleased with the place. It does not have much personality and the decor is minimal. Burger is decent and filling. read more

Cash only? $3.25 fee at the ATM because they choose not to accept debit cards. Poor business decision. Such a great place ruined!

I am a new resident of Ocean Shores and stopped in for the calamari. It was delicious with a hint of heat in the batter. I will stop again for a quick beverage and lunch. Met a couple who turned out to be my neighbors! read more
