So happy I went to this cozy, tavern style restaurant and bar. There were families with kids, solo travelers and couples. Food was delicious and service was great. The Cajun pasta was yummy, perfect amount of spice

We wanted clam chowder. We did research and looked at a lot of reviews, but we were talking to a waitress from another restaurant, she said if you want clam chowder, you need to go to West End bar and Grill, and she was right. It’s so happens. That’s where all the locals were eating so you know it’s got to be good and reasonably priced. It’s the best clam chowder I’ve ever had.

One of our favorite places when we are visiting the family in Cambria. This is how you imagine a typical American bar. The service is very friendly and fast, the food and drinks (Margaritas) are very good and the ambience too. A must, every time we are in the USA.

Great Place it was really busy but the owners Gary and Vicky(I am bad with names) along with their staff were really accommodating, and hospitable! Food was amazing I stayed back at the bar while the wife shopped.

Great Chowder! It was also halibut season so we had halibut fish and chips and some spicy cod tacos. The Lady at the bar was sweet and prompt! Loved it.
