Very disapointed this evening. We do an annual trip into Bristol and dine only at this bar & grill. We found this trip to be a huge disappointment. My fish tacos has mesquite barbecue sauce that ruined the dish & I have to ask, who puts barbecue sauce on fish? My friends fish from his fish & chips was over crisp on the outside yet mushy & wet on the inside. Our drinks were way overpriced. $11.00 for my Moscow mule and $12.00 for my friend IPA beer. We are very disapointed. We loved this bar & grill & have referred and recommended it as a mudt to all of outr famiky & friends. However, based on tonight experience we will be looking for a different place to dine going forward & will no longer recommend this bar & grill to family & friends. I gave it a 2 for the atmosphere. You have a great place. Please dont make that your focal point for success & start slacking on your menu & prices. Dont get cocky or greedy. You have a great chance to succeed based on location, dont cut back on your quality of the food you serve.

If it wasnt for the beautiful views this place would be long gone years ago. My husband and I decided to give this place one more chance. There wasnt a wait so we sat right down. Waitress finally came to get our drinks 15 minutes later, wasnt friendly at all, took another 10 minutes to take our order. Apps finally came out literally 20 minutes later, food finally comes out. Waitress never asked how our dinner was, drinks were empty food was boring. But we constantly saw her helping a group of guys she knew and drinking something in the back! All the other waitresses were prompt and so friendly we got stuck with the rude girl. They need to spruse up their menu, maybe add bread since theres such a long wait for food, a pickle with each sandwich lol etc ... it seems like all the reviews are the same, you would think the owner would make a change.

Nothing good about the place. Tried to have lunch at 3 pm today with my son and wife. We waited 20 min to get a server to come to the table. We ordered drinks and waited 10 min for them. We then ordered meals and waited 30 min before asking to have food wrapped to go. We ate the food in the car, my burger wasnt fit for the seagulls who enjoyed it from the roadside. To top it off my wife is sick from the calamari. WAITRESSES WAS RUDE AND SAID "THE PLACE WAS HELL ON EARTH"STAY AWAY!!!! Wish there was a 0 star option.

Went on a Sunday at 11:30am when they opened so we got a great seat. My husband & I both love clam chowder so started off with that. It was very bland. Ive never not finished a chowder before but neither of us ate much of it. I ordered a blackened salmon salad. It was pretty good. It says it comes with goat cheese but it didnt. My husband got the cod. He said it was ok. Staff was nice. Probably wont go back since its a bit pricey (expected in that area) but food wasnt worth it.

Food was not good. Clam cakes were heavy, chowder was bland, fish was dripping in grease with thick batter coating which was also soaked with grease. Got maybe ten French fries, Cole slaw had no taste. Service was just OK. Beer was cold and good. Scenery was great. Would recommend as a place to go for drinks and a view, but not to eat.

Upstairs bar at 11:30 pm we asked for 2 frozen drinks. The bartenders response (in her blue red sox hat).... "no frozen drinks tonight, Im sick of making them". This follows a similar problem a friend had the previous night when a different bartender said "our blender is broken". The foxes are running the hen house.

I read a lot of mediocre reviews but I ordered the Fish n Chips and could have been happier. My boyfriend got the baked cod and the sauce on it was excellent. Maybe a white wine cream sauce? Not sure. It was not crowded and service was good. Oh, the coleslaw was delish too.

What a great gem, we came to watch the patriots had the ribs and chicken parm off the specials menu and a bottle of Jordan wine. The food was outstanding and so was the view of the harbor. The prIces are modest and the portions huge. Highly recommend this place

Pretty good all in all. I think it is a wee bit pricey for the food quality, but great environment when the weather is nice. I think the place has a lot of potential that has yet to be seized upon.

Food is excellent but the service is the worst around. We keep going back thinking its a fluke but its not. Spend a little time Training your staff and the locals may come back more than once.

Great view, terrible food. Our waitress was very nice though. I ordered fish expecting it to be fresh, and it was like rubber. I ended up just eating the bread around it.

Solid fare, and a great location makes this a great spot to grab a bite on a Summer evening. You cant beat the views, and the staff is pleasant and attentive.

Seafood overcooked and overpriced for what is given. Employees taking several shots at the bar. Completely unprofessional.
