BOLI Love!
Captain Bills was absolutely perfect for my Welcome party! We had about 110 guests and were able to use one of the grand rooms with a balcony for the party. We had live music and a few speeches and they were well equipped for this. Plus the food is so good!
Shannon, Chloe and Paula were absolutely fantastic when it came to coordinating the event. They were so attentive and always answered my emails quickly. The day of coordinator and Maitre D was fantastic and they always made sure my husband and I were okay and always had a drink in our hand! The food was fantastic and the views were amazing. They recently painted and got new chairs for the venue and it looks so amazing. If you have champagne taste with a beer budget I HIGHLY recommend touring here.
We would choose this venue all over again. Captain Bills is very affordable and for what you get it’s a great venue. The cocktail hour had so much food, the bay view house is a beautiful open space that you can decorate as much or little as you want, the staff is incredible and truly caters to you on your special day. The views and sunset are beautiful.
All of the catering managers, especially Paula, were very accommodating. They were easy to reach by phone and readily available to meet in person to answer questions and to see the venue. They also worked very well with my wedding coordinator prior to and the day of the wedding.

We had our wedding at Captain Bill's Bayview House in Bayshore, and it was an absolute dream come true. The Bayview House is a truly breathtaking venue located waterfront in the Bayview Marina. The marina provided a gorgeous backdrop for our photos, and our guests couldn't stop raving about the beauty of the location. There was an incredible variety of delicious food options. They truly catered to every taste bud. We opted for passed/ stationed hors d’oeuvres during cocktail hour and a sit down dinner. The quality of the food matched its variety. A special thanks to Paula, our event coordinator, who was amazing throughout the entire planning process. She was incredibly responsive, helpful, and went the extra mile. Her expertise made everything run smoothly on our wedding day. The entire staff in fact was beyond amazingly attentive and made our special day flawless.
This venue is an absolute gem on Long Island. The views are incredible, the food is amazing, and the room options they have are perfect for a shower or any event! (Make sure to utilize the patio and all the photo options with the marina / boats there!!)
I cannot express enough what a hidden gem Captain Bills is. We had a 235 person wedding and have zero complaints. The service was amazing and our guests are still raving about the food! The bridal attendant was amazing and attended to me and my entire bridal party all night long. The Bayview house was decorated beautifully and it didn't feel too tight with our amount of guests. HIGHLY recommend!
Had my bridal shower here and it was absolutely perfect. The waterfront room is gorgeous. Food was delicious and the service was excellent!
Attended a bridal shower in their private room upstairs. Beautiful room with a view overlooking the water. Nice sized bar, and open space for gifts, games etc. Everyone fit comfortably and the food was delicious and fresh.
Had a wonderful time with my family at my cousin's bridal shower there I would recommend it for all your occasions
Captain Bills is a beautiful venue by the bay with breathtaking views and amazing food selections for an affordable price. Our guests have nothing but good things to say about the wedding. We had the best day of our lives at Captain Bills.
We recently held our wedding reception at Captain Bill's Bayview House and were extremely impressed. The room was absolutely beautiful, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the food was plentiful and delicious. Our guests loved the food and the water-side venue. We highly recommend Captain Bill's, and felt that it was reasonably priced for a gorgeous reception that doesn't break the bank!
I just had my wedding reception there and it was outstanding. The catering staff was accommodating, the servers were just awesome and the food was delicious. If you are looking for a venue to celebrate, this is the place. I can not do Captain Bills by my words, other then say Thank You for a wonderful reception and memories!
We got married at the Bayview House and it was an absolutely beautiful event! Annie, our Maitre'D, made sure that the entire evening ran smoothly. She was a pleasure to work with! I got up to get my own food at one point, and she was quick to sit me back down and bring my husband and I everything that we wanted from the buffet! The food at Captain Bill's is excellent, and they worked with us to ensure that we had both vegan & gluten-free options for our guests with dietary restrictions.
