I had dinner and a beer at this joint once a week for four years, loved it every time. Great food, good beers on tap and the staff are great. It can get crowded on the weekend, but the perfect weeknight spot.

Billie's is a local dump but could be a charming dive bar if the staff and manager knew how to treat customers. We were ignored for the first 20 minutes of our visit. We were a party of four and the place wasn't too crowded (probably because of the discourteous hired help and management). We waited forever for our meals... More

Whether you are a Long Islander or a visitor, you will be pleased by Port Jefferson's version of "Cheers" when you enter Billie's. Because Port Jefferson is a charming village located at Port Jefferson harbor - where ferries run regularly between this eastern Long Island location and Bridgeport, Connecticut - tourist traffic is always a variable when dining in P.J....

The food is ok (you can get a pretty good hot open sandwich with fries) and the beer is cold. Happy hour is on Billie's time and when you go for an early dinner you see everyone in town including families. Billies is always reliable for wings and the like.

Trashy place, terrible food. High school reunion. Dirty, but with none of the charm of a "dive bar." Inconsistent pricing, rude staff, place is packed way too tight. Needs a visit from the fire marshall on a weekend.

Me and my family ate here when we took the ferry and it smelled awful and the food was ok. French onion soup was icky and potato skins and nachos were terrible as well! Awful place. Never going back!

We always stop there when in PJ. Have stopping in for over 20 years I think. Consistently good food and service. Bartenders are great! Treat you a local even if your not(like me). Decor is a little worn, but who cares.

We had dinner here on a Saturday night. Granted, we just wanted burgers, but they were very tasty and a great price. Seemed like a really fun atmosphere. We ate in the bar area. Lots of TVs with all sorts of sports on. We will be back!
