Port of Call bar and Restaurant — honest take from real guests
Average rating sits at 3.2 out of 5 from 29 reviews, and the accounts tilt sharply between a standout breakfast for transit passengers and multiple reports of poor service and inconsistent food quality.
What do guests say about the food and drinks?
- One guest praised a superb breakfast setup that included a large, tasty smoothie and a broth-based soup described as excellent and good value.
- Another diner found the smoothie to be little more than crushed ice with no flavor, returned with irritation by the server and unchanged in a way that remained unclear to the guest.
- A prawn red curry received positive mention as an acceptable Thai dish by a reviewer who otherwise disliked other items on the bill.
- A chicken and cashew plate was criticized for being mostly onion rather than protein and vegetables.
- Pizza was called out for costing 400+ baht and arriving looking like a low-cost supermarket product; a guest returned it and was later charged for the item.
- A Caesar salad was described as having dried, unidentifiable pieces instead of chicken and poor-quality greens.
- At least one reviewer noted some dishes can be adapted to vegetarian on request.
How reliable is the service?
- Several guests described service as bad or awful, with specific examples of staff appearing annoyed when handling complaints.
- Language barriers were highlighted by a visitor who said staff did not speak any English at all, contributing to miscommunications about spice levels for a child.
- Meal sequencing was reported as disorganized in one visit: rice delivered first, mains five minutes later, and starters arriving after the mains.
- A customer who returned pizza was told the establishment charged them because otherwise the server would have to pay, indicating tense handling of complaints.
When does this place make sense to visit?
- Guests consistently recommend the venue for people staying in or passing through the marina and for those waiting for boat transfers, not as a destination restaurant.
- The bar area called D Deck sits right by the boats and offers the best view, but it operates only during high season according to visitor reports.
- One reviewer warned that locals or food-seekers should not go out of their way to visit because the food and drinks are unremarkable outside the marina convenience factor.
Value, price and practical logistics
- At least one explicit price point appears in reviews: pizza referenced at 400+ baht and judged poor quality by the guest who ordered it.
- Operating hours are daily from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM, which supports breakfast and daytime visits noted by reviewers.
- Payment options include credit and debit cards plus NFC, and the venue provides both free parking in a lot and free street parking.
Actionable tips before you go
- Go for breakfast: if you’re transferring by boat or staying in the marina, the breakfast setup earned the strongest positive feedback.
- Confirm spice and ingredients in person: several guests reported spicy food despite requests otherwise and incorrect protein in salads, so confirm specifics when ordering.
- Be cautious with pizza: a reviewer paid 400+ baht for a pizza they considered substandard and ended up being charged after returning it.
- Expect possible communication friction: language gaps and annoyed responses are documented, so allow extra time and patience when dealing with staff.
- Time visits for high season if you want the D Deck bar and the best boat-facing view.
Final assessment — who should visit and who should skip
Port of Call functions best as a convenient marina-side option for breakfast or a pre-departure meal where views matter more than culinary precision. Visitors looking for reliably high-quality dinner, attentive complaint handling, or an English-speaking front of house will likely be frustrated. If you prioritize convenience, parking and card payments, and are willing to accept hit-or-miss service and menu execution, this place will do the job. For a deliberate night out or a food-focused trip, consider alternatives outside the immediate pier area.
