The Porthole Restaurant & Pub

Had fish and chips and clam chowder. Both were especially good. Another great place to eat. It's down on the wharf and the waterfront on Costco Bay. Very old place! It was a wonderful experience!

The Porthole was good but not great. I had the fish tacos which were good. My wife had the crab cakes which were not very good. We did like like the clam chowder and it was nice sitting outside. I understand that they are known for a 2 lobster special for $25.

Dog friendly restaurant! They even bring water bowls for your dog before they take your order. Overlooking a wharf, you can watch boats going in and out. Great choices for seafood as well as other items. Huge selection of local beers and other alcoholic drinks. Special is the 2 whole lobster dinner with corn on the cob, potatoes, and a roll. Great desserts. Handicap accessible. Suggest eating during off hours otherwise the wait can be up to an hour. Highly recommend! Seating is also available inside.

I love this place in the summer, especially on Sundays! Great, large patio over the water, a decent crowd and typically good live music. I've only sat inside a few times, but it's enough to say I definitely prefer the outdoor area. I don't know if it's the style they are looking for, but its a little rundown for my taste. Food is a fair price and decent. The Cajun fish tacos on blue corn tortillas are my favorite. However, it feels like the portion of fish has decreased over the past couple of summers. Very friendly servers, even when they are clearly busy, they still put in the extra effort and it shows. I will certainly be back for the patio, drinks, and summer fun!

This place has a great view and had good drink specials, even on a Friday afternoon! Our server was great. My husband enjoyed the haddock nuggets immensely (and he doesn't even really like seafood). I thought the clam chowder was pretty good. We waited maybe 30 minutes and it was worth it.
