The Porch

This place has a great view of OU's campus from its rooftop bar area. When I was there with some friends, we had some decent sandwiches, but I feel like sandwich places are a dime a dozen. The food was fine, but my big gripe was the service. We were really the only group in there on a Friday afternoon, but we still had pretty spotty service. Great setting and view, decent food, but not so hot service.

I had a good brunch from here. Service was attentive and food was brought out in a timely manner. Their brunch menu was also reasonably priced with lots of good selections to choose from. I had the huevos rancheros. They make it different here since there was no sauce over the dish. I didn't like the side of potatoes that came with it. It had a bit of a kick to it and wasn't the typical fried potatoes you get for brunch. Overall the dish was flavorful. The service and food made it a positive dining experience for me.

Cool bar and restaurant across from Oklahoma University. The food is cheap, the staff is great, the view on the patio is awesome, and the food is really good. I got the burger with bacon and egg. It was tasty and cooked perfect. It came with a side. I chose tater tots. Good.My daughter got the chicken tenders. They were really good.I highly recommend The Porch.

They have the rudest bouncer in the world. He literally yelled old 2 adult women and kicked them out for doing absolutely nothing. Owner did not care one bit. Will never go back!

Really poor service today. Appeared if you weren't sitting on the upstairs patio you were pretty much ignored. Left after waiting at least 40 minuteswithout ever getting the appetizer we ordered

I try to be overly positive with reviews in general, but I would rate this place less than one star if possible, for the following. 1) I've been there twice for lunch and dinner and have yet to have food served. ( fool me once, ..)2) The service was awful. Not just a lack of attention, literally rude and entitled. 3) Complete lack of organization and understaffed. It was even a challenge to order a drink at their two bars. I really wanted to give them money, but nobody would take it. The food may be fine. I have no idea since I have yet to have anyone at this *restaurant* show or bring me any. If this place is around in 6 months, I'll be amazed.

This is my new go to spot when visiting campus! The Porch restaurant is conveniently located on campus corner and features seating both upstairs, downstairs, and patio seating. The upstairs seating has a beautiful views of campus and is perfect for gameday drinks and food! Our server was very friendly and attentive. There is a selection of restaurant cocktails but there is also a full bar for whatever you would like to drink. Both the loaded nachos and the chicken strips were delicious. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anybody, especially those wanting to get together in groups/with friends!

Peyton and josh were absolutely the best!!! they were very talkative and seemed to care about me! so awesome!

THIS PLACE IS RACIST!!!!!!!!!!! THE OWNER AND THEIR WORKERS ARE RACIST! IF YOU'RE NOT WHITE. DON'T GO TAKE YOUR MONEY THERE!!!!! ALL RACIST BARS SHOULD CLOSE DOWN!!!!!It was around 1am at the Porch bar (Date: 18th Aug 2023) in Norman OK on West Boyd St. I walked in after getting age verified at the door downstairs. I go to the counter and bought a cold beer. I walk towards the balcony facing the university of Oklahoma. I have come here many times before because of the nice view. It's semi-busy and no tables are empty, i spot an empty chair and 2 white girls on the other two chairs. I come meet them with a smile and politely request if i can sit on the empty chair because i would like to stare at the view and they say it's okay. We chat with the white guy on the other table who looked so young and i was like, "you look so young, you're a lucky guy to have such good genes, he laughs it off and i sit on the chair and got the 1st sip of my cold beer enjoying the view. As i was sitting there minding by business and keeping it to myself. One of the white girls says "it's a nice view right" and i said yes it is! I said how i like the university building and how beautifully gothic it was (in my head remembering my architectural summer class that i really enjoyed). The girl smiles at me and i smiled back and faced the view and continued drinking my cold beer. Minutes later the girls left. And within a few minutes a young black man (looks like in his late 20's ) with dreadlocks comes up to me and in a rough tone says, "you should move to that chair over there!" i was startled because i didn't know who he was or why he was telling me to move. I said "why?" and "who are you?" He wasn't wearing any branded uniform to identify himself as a worker for the bar. So i thought its some random guy trying to find trouble. I said, "i don't know you and who you are so i'm sorry i'm not moving anywhere. He said "i work here!" and i said, you should have started by identifying yourself brother' He left and sat at a corner. As i drunk my beer, i thought, why would he ask me to move! So i went to him and asked him politely, why he wanted me to move. He said the white girls who left called for help! From him! And i asked "to be helped with what?" And he said that the white girls felt uncomfortable around me! And i was like that's not true, the girls were nice to me and i was nice to them and we were even chatting before they left. Before you know it, this black guy calls 2 other white guys trying to throw me out. The white owner joined them cursing at me and snatching my drink throwing it and called the police!!!!!!!!This is how innocent black men are shot dead when they are innocent! Not committing any crimes and trying to enjoy a beer after a long hard day. I'm lucky these police did not pull the trigger on me! This country MUST change how black folks are treated! And those white girls unconscious bias! White non-racist parents, raise your daughters right! They are the next generation. Or they will be the next "Karen"

Owner and employees accuse and belittle customers.I saw this firsthand and immediately left. I don't want to be in an establishment that speaks to their customers in a demeaning way.
