Old Port dive bar institution serving raw oysters, lobster rolls, and steamers on the waterfront. A no-reservations Portland classic.
J's Oyster Bar is a beloved Portland Old Port dive — a no-reservations waterfront seafood spot where locals and visitors share counter seats over fresh-shucked Maine oysters, lobster rolls, lobster stew, and steamers. The cozy, informal vibe captures the essence of working-waterfront Portland, with friendly service and seafood sourced direct from the Atlantic just steps away.
A curated companion to Maine's independent businesses — makers, retailers, and the products they carry.
