Recently we drove to Newburyport just to wander around a bit because we hadn’t explored that area in a while. We had lunch at The Port Tavern on State St in Newburyport and enjoyed the experience enough to share it with you. It’s an Irish Pub that is deceptively large. The street view doesn’t do justice to the inside, though the outside seating was tempting. Jim got bangers with fries and I had the shaved beef sandwich. The beef wasn’t quite “shaved” the way I expected, but the sandwich was very satisfying especially since I prefer sandwiches that are mouth-sized and not Paul Bunyan style. It was pretty quiet in there that day and the service was very good. I think we’ll put it on the list for the Irish Coffee tastings in March!
