Long Beach Tavern

Nothing fancy, just a good "locals" bar, with better than average food.  Service was surprisingly attentive as there were only 2 ladies waiting on everyone, and the place was packed.  $3 onion rings were generous and tasty.  Hubby had pizza, also good.  I had cod-n-chips, four large cod strips atop a ridiculous pile of fries, could easily be shared for two people.  Cod was very good, it had something "different" about it, I'd swear it was "buttered" somehow (and we know everything is better with butter!).  The cup of coleslaw with the cod was surprisingly fresh and delicious, too.  Nice place to hang, low key, good food, will stop in again when we're up that way.

DEAR GOD, that Norwegian pizza was amazing (lobster, shrimp, crab, artichokes)! My husband & I visited from Portland for the weekend and based on the reviews, stopped in for lunch. There was a pool tournament going on, so the place was very busy with a lively atmosphere. VERY entertaining locals-watching, super-friendly service from our waitress, and as mentioned above, amazing pizza. We'll be having the leftovers for dinner in our hotel room tonight. And it's going to be awesome.

I wrote a review on this place last year that would have barely given the place one star due to the ridiculously rude staff and service. I visited once again this last weekend and I must say, this place has changed dramatically. The staff and service was night/day compared to last time. I spent a lot of my time in Long Beach here because of the service, friendliness, and the PIZZA! Bartenders are friendly and very nice and they just treat you the way you're supposed to be treated. I will definitely return!
