Longboards Olde Towne

We LOVE longboards - both locations but I must say this portsmouth location is such a fun vibe. Right in downtown Portsmouth and easy to find. The food is always good especially for being right in downtown it's nice to still have fresh seafood. Would definitely recommend their blackened shrimp and sweet potato fries. Along with their mahi tacos and nachos! All are great honestly. Typically they also always have daily specials on meals.The bar is super cool with their tiki bar vibe. You'll definitely feel like you're in a tropical island bar at this location. You can sit outside if you would like, you'll be right near the street but depending on the time of day or night it might be ideal.Service has always been good even when they are packed. My only thing I'm not a huge fan of is their beer list. With only a few craft beers on tap (less than I like to see) and a smaller wine selection; however, they do offer some great cocktails to choose from.

Only been here for the later evening events (bar) Uhhh lotta interesting folks bass thru, if u feel like getting your car vandalized and taking a torta home this is the place for you

Great place for a night out! Our server was very nice and made sure to keep tabs on us and our food. When we got our food it was very hot! We got the crab dip and the basket of sweet potato fries. Definitely recommend both! They came out in a timely manner and were super flavorful. The crab dip wasn't overly crabby, and the sweet potato fries were reasonably sweet, they were a bit of a tad small amount though, definitely recommend getting two trays for four people. Will probably be back to try their fish and chips!

I so love and live for a hometown feel bar... that's the vibe I received once I entered this restaurant... bar.Longboards is located in the heart of Portsmouth! Downtown... High Street...Portside... this area is one to explorer if you are in the city.There is parking available on the street as well as parking garages all within walking distance. As you walk up and down High Street, you will see some sights, some worth gazing at and some worth looking the other way. This historic area of the city is a favorite hangout for a date night, with family or if you just want to getaway.Well our reason for visiting this past Thursday was to get something good to eat and enjoy a few adult beverages.Luckily, we were able to find parking on the street only steps from the restaurant.We walked in and headed for the bar. We were immediately greeted by Bridget ... a cute petitie young bartender who was ready to cater to us.It was a Thursday afternoon about 3pm - 4pm... the bar had a steady group of guests. I'd say about 10 were present... everyone was pretty much around the bar top.We ordered and our food arrived maybe 10 minutes later... my salad... so fresh and so bomb! My babe loved his shrimp tacos as well. As I am writing, I can taste those blackened shrimp... yummy!!The drinks were awesome!Not sure how long the cute bartender has been around, but I saw her work the bar and she was amazing... taking orders.. refilling drinks... and talking to the guests... kudos to her!! I found out she usually works during the day.If you are around, I recommend you stop by during the day to experience this great service. I cannot vouch for the evening, but we are so looking forward to returning to try more food options.The restaurant is the right size... the restroom was neat and smelled fresh...Just a great first time!Have fun and enjoy life :)

Friend of mine and I wanted something different for lunch so we stopped in...we were not disappointed but in fact really enjoyed the experience. The interior is inviting with lots of natural light even with wood everywhere including the high table seating areas and finishes. While the menu was not extensive, we took the advise of our waitress and had the tacos along with some adult beverages. These soft tacos were just great...really good with just enough of lettuce, cheese, pico and sour cream to dress them appropriately. Service was just right as well and for the price, this was one of the best lunch outings I have been on in some time. One of these days will have to stop in during the evening, which means I was pretty impressed to want to go back already. Highly recommend this spot if you are in Portsmouth.

Service is great and so is the food. They have awesome lunch specials. Don't forget to tip your waitress.

Went for the first time 2 days ago. It was nice. $1 tacos and $2 Coronas was the Tuesday special. It was delicious. I'll definitely be going back

My wife and I came here on a whim. We were really surprised. The food was really good. My wife had the oldetowner burger and i had the fish and chips. Well worth the stop. We will be back. Great service.

i'm somewhat of a regular at the East Beach location- so maybe i was expecting the same quality.no at al the place was very dirty . staff was unorganized,rude, and just not pleasant.ordered the fried pickles myfav at longboards Terrible- not sure the difference between the two locations are maybe different owners all i know is I Ain't going back to this location again

Beyond frustrated with this place, server was horrible as many times as I've came to this location we never paid automatic gratuity ! We weren't even notified that it was being applied until after the bill came she claimed that if you spend over $50 it's automatically added which is something you as a server / bartender should let your customer know ! My fish bites were soggy and I had to send them back to be cooked longer NEVER COMING BACK thanks to Nancy !
