This is self service at the bar. This is really a bar that also serves food. Live entertainment was great and sitting outside watching the boats come in was fabulous. Feeding the birds down on the dock was great
Great place but didn’t have wings today so that’s a big bugaboo for me… will be back tomorrow for the second best bartenders I know
Great spot!
Great atmosphere and 2nd best bartenders in town!
Review: Waterfront Vibes & Unmatched Flavor
This restaurant-bar nails the perfect combo of laid-back vibes and top-tier bar food. With a killer view of the water, it’s the kind of place where you can sip craft cocktails as the sun sets and stay for a night of great bites and even better energy.
The bar scene is lively without being overwhelming—think upbeat music, friendly bartenders, and a buzz of conversation that makes the place feel alive. The atmosphere is effortlessly cool, perfect for date nights, weekend hangs, or just winding down after work.
Service is on point, and the food? Next-level for bar fare. From elevated classics to creative small plates, everything is packed with flavor and made with care. Pair it with a signature drink, and you’re golden.
If you're after great views, chill vibes, and bar food that seriously delivers—this is your spot.
We ate upstairs. There is no waiter/waitress up stairs that comes to your table. You have to go to the bartender to order your food and also to get your own refills. The view is the best thing about the restaurant. They got our order wrong on my son's food. When we told the waitress she seemed like she got annoyed and questioned what we said. When I recieved my order my buffalo chicken wrap had so much buffalo sauce in it I had to have them re-make it. We will not return to this restaurant again. The tip money we left was a joke bc we waited on ourselves.
Every time I visit, I leave genuinely impressed. The staff truly makes the experience—bartenders and management alike never miss a beat. It’s refreshing to enjoy great food, quality drinks, and exceptional service all in one place. This team consistently goes above and beyond, and it shows. Thank you for genuinely caring about your guests!
Best bartenders in pcb. I love them
Did the hook and cook fish was awesome but employee didn't know the process. She gave us the wrong info, they screwed up our order. But drinks are stuff and bartenders Rick. Atmosphere is awesome.
Great place to get a drink and dog friendly!

Best Happy Hour, great service, and wonderful view! Pet and kid friendly, pub style food.
I didnt eat but I had drinks and the service was top notch. The view from the topside bar is fantastic. Cool vibe , live music. Definitely recommend and will be back for sure.
Capt Maxs has the best local laid back environment. The view is spectacular, the food is amazing and the staff are so friendly. This is now our local spot and are regulars daily. Love our Locals spot!
pretty average. the baskets are definitely overpriced for what you get, especially with mid sides. i got 6 fried shrimp in the basket meal. the coleslaw wasn't great, and the fries are standard frozen crinkle cut. it has the potential to be a really great spot and worth it, but it falls short in my opinion.
No one acknowledged we were there
