    No place like it. I love the lodge, my favorite bartender Aimee works there. Stop in for some local chatter, pool, or chill place to hang.

    Lovely and clean inside, well-styled..... which is why I was first surprised to find pre-packaged…read moretartar 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.

    Visited on around 5 PM on a Thursday in November. Place was packed. On a Thursday. In November…read more 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.
