Porky’s Public House & Eatery

The lamb burger was lamb. Nothing special. I still prefer a bacon burger at Murphy’s in Westport, OR.

Nice bar, good atmosphere, service was ok. Drinks came out quick. The food is mostly frozen food and they really don’t make anything from scratch. Having said that, for having to cook frozen food, it took a long time. Very disappointed.

Yesterday’s lunch was at Porky’s (recommended by coworker). The interior of the place was surprisingly nice and well decorated. There were tvs placed along the walls. The place was also super clean.
I didn’t know what to order, so I asked the server for her recommendation and she recommended the daily special… which was the grande beef enchilada with some housemade special sauce… it came out fast and definitely a good size… needless to say, I was stuffed for most of the day.

One of my favorite places for lunch! Very good food and nicely prepared. Tater skins are very yummy! The drinks are spot on and they have a gigantic selection of craft beers. Sometimes the food takes a bit long but it is worth the wait. The service is always great!

Visited here because of several decent ratings, and the menu looked awesome! Service was terrible, it was obvious who the «regular» customers were, as they were doted on our entire dining experience. We (attempted) to order FOUR items from the menu that they were «out of until their supplier came in two days». When we finally did manage to find meals that were available, It took an hour and 15 minutes to get our food, for 3 of us the last was an additional 15 minutes. Food was very average, nothing special. Children’s portions were ridiculously small, even for kids. My son was seriously disappointed, and we shared our food with him. (He is 9). We will not be back to this establishment, not worth the time or the money.
*Note — we are very patient and understanding people. It takes a whole lot for us to complain about anything, but sadly his establishment earned it. :(

If you could give 0 stars for a place I would. I cant give this place any stars for its food because I didn’t have any. I can’t give it any stars for its beers because I didn’t drink anything. I’m giving this place 1 star for the fact that out of the 15 something TVs they had in there they would not turn a single one, not even the one playing golf to a different sporting event that I wanted to watch. Okay??? Their pub wasn’t even half full. Horrible customer service.
Went to Triangle and they were more then happy to accommodate us.

Love love this place the service is great and the beer selection is huge, highly recommend the fish tacos on Friday nights only but they are the best around!

Service was horrible. We waited for 30 minutes just to get our drink order. Another 1.5 hours to get our food. Waitress would not look at us or acknowledge us. Prime rib came out overcooked, burgers were good, but it could have been that we were starving after waiting for so long. Our group was so disgusted with the service that we almost just got up and left without paying. We will not be back.

I’m impressed. We went in, not knowing what to expect. The specials were deep– fried cod sandwich and shrimp bisque. The flavor of bisque is developed by roasting the shrimp shells, blenderizing them with cream and strained. A lot of work, but that’s the steps. I ordered the bisque and ended up with a clam chowder base with bay shrimp. Not what I was hoping for, but good none– the less. Hubby had the cod sandwich and declared it good, considering he never orders fish sandwiches I figured that’s a good sign. The beer is cold and the g&t satisfying. This is definitely on our radar now. porky’s we’ll bbbbback…

Went here after an Easter Egg hunt and had the Terriyaki burger it was very flavorful and cooked perfectly. I like the décor and atmosphere it’s one of the coolest places I’ve been here.

Great selection of beers. I had the Bacon Blue Cheese Burger. The best I’ve had anywhere!

It’s good, greasy food. I’ve gone a few times and my friend noticed there are some high hidden costs of add-​ons.
This place is perfect for a quick lunch or after-​hours for folks at Fibre (Kapstone) and others around the same area.

I’ve been to Porky’s several times, for lunch, beers, dinner, beers… Did I mention beers? It’s a comfortable sports bar with good food and great beers on tap. There are big windows at one end so those of us that actually like sunshine can enjoy a beautiful can enjoy it while having a cold one. Staff is friendly, and service speed is good. Right now, this is my top pick for a place to kick back while in Longview/​Kelso.
On the downside. Waitress brought me my meal, but no silverware. Had to bug the bartender. But he was great and got what I needed to eat.

DON’T FILL GROWLERS HERE.
Stopped in for dinner with the family and fill up a growler. This is the only brewery or tap house style place I have been to that charges you the full price of 4 pints to fill a growler to take home. I filled mine with Hop Venom, which is a double IPA and a little more per pint then others @ $ 6.75 each. But when I had my growler filled, it cost me $ 27.00. All other placed that offer «to go» beers give you a discount for buying in bulk. Also, they will not fill Growlets (half growlers). There is not laws or licensing issues against it, just «company policy»
Have eaten here many times and the food is consistently good, but the service is very hit and miss. They need to post which servers are on so I know when I will get good service.

Hop Venom rocks!!! Love that stuff. Good service too. Most all waitresses are great and good at their jobs. Bartenders are great also. Nice place to hang out and get drunk! In fact I’m ready to get drunk right now!!! Happy Friday everyone!!! Later!

Went here for my birthday dinner. It is basically a bar that serves food. The waitress was new and didn’t do anything extraordinary after my wife told her it was my birthday. No extra attention, no offers of a dessert, nothing. My wife had the pulled pork and she loved it. I had a burger which was tasty but a bit dry. We will probably try it again to see if we can get decent service.

Good place to watch a game or a fight. They had tons of TVs, the food and beer was good. My only complaint was our server. She seemed very inexperienced. My girlfriend and I were watching fights and she was constantly interrupting. I appreciate her trying to take care of us but there is a break in the action every 5 minutes. Please wait until one of these breaks before stealing my attention away from what could be a pivotal moment in the fight.

Very comfortable establishment/​vibe. One of the first places my boyfriend and I went to when we first started dating and it automatically clicked with us, we have branded it as our neighborhood spot :)
Really great food, too bad the kitchen is only open until 8. We always seem to want some dinner late at night, but they serve friend foods after 8.
The staff are friendly and they play pretty good music, including snow patrol and angels & airwaves.
We crave Porky’s at least once a week! And definitely recommend it!

I recently ate here and found that they have changed their menu up a bit. The prime rib used to be amazing! However, the cut was awful, smaller, and had NO FLAVOR! I got mine with a side salad and mashed potatoes. The side salad has gotten smaller and was served on plastic plates. The mashed potatoes used to be a garlic mash, they now come with a giant pile of sour cream and chives. The potatoes had no flavor and I ended up with more sour cream than potatoes! I saw no mention of it as a topping on the menu, otherwise I wouldn’t have had them hold it. I don’t know if they tried to expand the menu too much or if their new chef sucks, either way I won’t be going here anymore to eat!
Also, the waitress was awful!!! She charged us for things we didn’t order, she was rude, and when I would ask for things, she’d have to bring the wrong thing first!
I’d give this place one star, but I like the drinks! Sadly, the the ILWU sign will keep me out of there!

Viewing this place from the outside, you might wonder about it. It is located down near some of the mills, a little out of the way. But, if you take the time to find it, you take the time to come in, you won’t be disappointed.
Is it a Bar? Yes, it is with more beers on tap than anyone else in the local area. Both ‘big name’ brands and more local microbrews, as well as almost any kind of mixed drink you could ask for. Also, any direction you look, you can watch at least two or three games, with a combination of cable and computer channels, they have excellent sports coverage.
Is it a Restuarant? YES! In spite of the fact it is also a bar, it doesn’t serve what many have come to see as traditional ‘bar food.’ They do have burgers, they do have all kinds of appetizers, but they have a good variety of other entrees as well. And as for the qualtiy, we have never gone away disappointed. You can get buffalo burgers in place of standard beef. You can get a much larger variety of appetizers than at most places, and overall the food is just amazing.
So, in short, this place is definitely worth the trip. The burgers are large and tasty, the wine and beer list extensive, the appetizers truly appetizing, and the atmosphere is not the dark, dingy bar feel, but a great place to get together with friends.
