Very nice local bar and grill. The Nautical theme runs through the “bar side” across into the “dining side” that has booths and tables. We stop here on our way to a campground near Fort Niagara and have enjoyed their Beef on Weck sandwiches (which is the only entree we’ve had because we can’t get those sandwiches in the area we live). Excellent, friendly service. Four stars on atmosphere only because the jukebox in the bar was a little loud…minor complaint though.
Had no idea I a bald guy was going to walk into a wig party lmao
Always a fun time with good food, friendly staff and good neighborhood vibe
Good atmosphere. Cozy
Stopped briefly for a quick bite. We only had the french fries and they were delicious.
I was there on 21 May 25, I grew up here but live in NC, the patrons and the bar lady were very nice. I was wearing my Iraqi service hate for my brother's and sisters, some who did not make home.
Someone paid for my meal, I did not expect this but want to say thank you and I still gave the bar lady a tip because she gave great service.
This bar is actively degrading the neighborhood.
At first, we tried to be understanding. Occasionally, bar patrons would park in our yard—annoying, but manageable. However, things quickly escalated since Scallywags became The Shore House. We started regularly finding broken glass—beer bottles, wine bottles, and cans—scattered throughout our yard and driveway. It became a safety hazard and a constant cleanup task.
When we brought this to the attention of the owner, we were met with defensiveness and denial. He claimed, “That’s definitely not ours, we don’t carry that,” and dismissed our concerns with, “If you don’t like it, don’t live next to a bar.” Ironically, the same brand of wine was visibly stocked behind the bar. And despite claiming they’re too busy to deal with complaints, some staff seem to have time to loiter and smoke in the parking lot for hours.
Our house has been here since 1940—long before this bar, when our only neighbor was a quiet church. Since confronting the owner, the situation has worsened. Parking in our yard has increased, and we’ve heard from customers that the bar tells them to “just park in the empty lot next door”—which is actually our lawn, now torn up from repeated misuse. It’s not even like parking is scarce, the entire street has open street parking.
When we ask patrons to move their vehicles, we’re threatened with police action for “harassing customers.” A friend of ours was even threatened inside the bar for making a harmless “your mom” joke. The environment feels cliquish and hostile if you’re not part of their inner circle.
We’ve tried patience, diplomacy, and reason. That’s over. If this bar won’t take responsibility, we’ll have to protect our property ourselves. If glass shards don’t damage patrons’ tires first, a tow truck will take care of it.
Best poutine we ever had!! Great service and the wings came out so hot!! Will definitely be back!
Food was surprisingly good - nothing outstanding, but it was really good. My coleslaw in particular!
Came in for a late lunch on a weekday, mostly empty except for some sports amateurs sipping a beer at the counter while watching the screens.
Our waitress was very nice and pleasant. Food came within acceptable time (though it wasn’t super fast). Overall clean, quirky atmosphere and bathrooms. Good spot!

Went yesterday for lunch. The food was good but service was very slow. Only one waitress for a lot of tables.

Fish fry was excellent. Service was great. Nice beer selection. Usually minimal to no wait for a table.

Husband had beef and wing special absolutely the best he's had in a long time. I had shrimp scampi and I can honestly say it was the best I have ever had. Loved the atmosphere and waitress was wonderful. Priced very reasonable. Cant wait to go back.

Stopped by for Friday lunch on a road trip!all the food was good, the chicken bacon ranch quesadilla was amazing and crispy. Nonalcoholic drinks are also sold in large glasses with not much ice so they don't water down and you won't need 5 refills
