Ice Chest Bar and Grille

I agree with the prior poster...just ok. The Portuguese food specials are very good, but unremarkable beer selection. The staff has a bit of attitude if you are not a regular. Hop on over to the Pour House or Rose Alley in New Bedford if you are a beer first kind of person.

This place has potential. It’s open with some booths on one side and tables around the bar and on the other side. They have a big opening in the middle of the bar that they fill with beers and keep cold with ice (hence "Ice Chest"). The selection isn’t anything that jumps out at you but they do have a couple of taps that they keep for craft selections. The crowd is a bit on the older side, and seems filled with fishermen and bikers. The bartenders aren’t really all that knowledgable and seem to not like talking to people who aren’t "regulars." There is potential here.
