Port City Pub

Fantastic Irish food, great prices, plus a wonderful culture and great atmosphere. I tried the Rueben and it came with a side. I ordered the potato soup to go with mine. The meal was delicious and five stars. They didn’t give me my free side and billed me $4 for the soup. If they would have adjusted the bill it would be 5 stars.

They also have a wonderful selection of drinks. My server, Sandra, chuckles and tells me that it is 5 o’clock somewhere. I tried their Barbie Doll which has coconut rum, pineapple juice and grenadine. The meal was great. If in Portsmouth check this place out.

Friendly Local Watering Hole with Outstanding Food, Service and occasional Live Music. Great Ruben! Well Done Cory!

Traveling through to grab lunch was not a bad place to eat the fries were okay the fish was pretty good. I think the french fries were baked as they had a little bit of char to them but overall still a good meal. It definitely has that local Irish Pub feel. Note that I went for lunch at 2 p.m. on a Monday

Was not aware of Port City Pub till I was left struggling to find somewhere in Northeastern Kentucky to enjoy a Irish meal to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day. Eastern Kentucky has no Irish pride I've noticed and to the many its just another day.
A search on the internet yielded not many results but Port City Pub in southern Ohio caught my attention. Its advertising of good food, bar, and live music had me ready to make the 40 minute drive. The drive was well worth it!
A classic Irish pub with a menu that can satisfy anyone from fish n chips to steak. Various sandwiches from clubs to turkey. Several different beers on tap and one of the friendliest staffs I've ever encountered.
Being its Saint Patrick's Day a live band performed excellent Irish folk songs and gave it a almost out of time atmosphere.
We of course went with the shepherd's pie and was happy we did but do plan on going back soon to try other menu items.
Prices were extremely fair and they even offered various discounts such as law enforcement which I refuse to ask for but was still nice to see they offered.

The best part of our meal was the side salad. The salmon was over cooked and the cauliflower rice had little flavor. I enjoyed the shepherds pie. The music was good although very loud...not a good atmosphere for socializing. We didn’t realize there was a whole back area. It would be nice if they served in the front area for those who want it a bit more quiet.
