Portside Tavern - Port Charlotte

Some of the best services and drinks you get. Your family when you come in. It doesn't matter if you want to sit and have a few or want to make a new friend as that is the place for you. I can't forget to mention the food because it's worth jumping in. It is the only place I think you can have a seat, have a nice lunch or dinner with a beer for $10 or less. SUMMARY

I hadn't been inside for nearly 40 years. Used to hang out and shoot pool... It's remodeled, for the better I suppose.

We've stopped by a couple of times this trip. All the staff is incredibly friendly. Wayne makes the most amazing pizza and the selection of hot dogs is unbelievable. And, I really can't figure out how the sell this food so cheap!

Little place that's been open since 1962. Service by Kaylyn was outstanding, beer was cold and food was excellent. How can you go wrong with 33 different kinds of hot dogs! Wings were plump and juicy, sides were on point. Prices are great on everything!

Oh, the Booo bird Yankees have no idea... They don 't have a clue and wouldn 't understand it if explained to them. This place is a landmark, a county treasure of sorts... This is probably (along with the Brown Cow) the oldest, continually operated business (definitely bar) in Charlotte County. This place was here before I first walked into it in 1973 and has been open all day everyday since with maaaaaybe the exception of Hurricane Charlie in 2004. For the Yankees who bad mouth: THIS IS NOT AN EATERY !!! They NOW offer small finger food but by no means is this nor has it ever been a place to come and actually eat a meal. If you were served food at all, consider yourself lucky... Now, shut up, drink your drink and get out... Oldtime Floridans only... Over 5 decades of continual service? BRAVO!!! AND HERE 'S TO 5 MORE!!! Thank you Port side!!!
