love the vibe and the food is cheap but it takes foreverrrrr to get even if it's completely dead
They need to get rid of Sherry, literally me and everyone I went with had to go outside to order our drinks, my food took over an hour to get (I ordered 5 wings) . Tammy Myles Anne & Nikki were amazing. Get the trash out. Youâre losing money by having this horrible bartender serve at your bar ! Sherry literally came up and tried to yell at me and when I told her how horrible her service was she told me I could be âbarredâ. I donât even live in the state and only came in there to see my family. (I came down for a funeral) i definitely at that point was more than happy to tell her how horrible she really was. As someone that runs a business I would never let this disgusting person ever work a day ever again after how I was treated Saturday night. Hopefully they have cameras and Portsides other employees told the owners what happened !
1st visit wasnât bad. 2nd visit not so. Pizza was burnt this time and the bartender wasnât on her game.

The place smells terrible. They need some kind of exhaust to get the cigarette smoke out. How do you serve food when the places smells worse then a bingo hall? The food has to have the smell adsorbed in it all.
Service at night is absolutely terrible, always. Waited about 20 minutes to get a beer 2-3 times⊠why are the bartenders not going around the main bar checking on customers? Iâve been to bars 3x busier on a Saturday night in this area and I can get a beer sitting at the bar in 0-3 minutes. on my 5th beer asked how much my tab is and she said she was making it a bucket so itâll be a 3-4 dollars cheaper. Went outside for a while maybe 30 ish minutes & came back in to have 1 more beer (6 beers total) I get handed a bill for 56$ after I said that there isnât no way my bill doubled. They added a bucket and 8 beers to the tab. So they removed the bucket, I never got the bucket price and then had to argue with the older bartender for 20 minutes about me not having 8 beers, she walked over to the trash 2 times and said there is 6 coronas in the trash⊠âitâs been emptied 3 times tonightâ well unless it was emptied when I was outside⊠it was not emptied since I got there. Eventually she gave me the bill for my 6 beers and tried to make me feel bad saying âwe are gonna have to pay for it nowâ pay for your mess up? Or did you give another person a corona and put it on my tab? âIâve been doing this for 11 years we just donât add drinks to your tabâ so why was there a bucket and 8 beers if you donât do that? Make it make sense.
Will not be back with the bad attitude from the older bartender and the âheâs drunk so Iâm gonna over charge him for a bigger tipâ logic.
They did this a few weeks ago to one of my buddies too 1 bucket and 2 shots of house liquor 76$??? Insanity.

Stopped in for a drink while visiting Pirt Charlotte for the day. Sherri, barkeepers, was fabulous. Shared her legacy drink with us, delicious. Karaoke fir entertainment, Tammy, beautiful voice, kept the party going. Thanks to you all.

Nice place to visit outside, but if you walk inside you'll be overwhelmed by cigarette smoke. Hopefully you won't have to use the restroom which is inside.
