or experience the lively atmosphere
inside. And lively, it is. A pleasant blend
of visitors and boisterous locals gather
regularly for live summertime music
that includes steel-pan calypso and a
variety of pub entertainers. There are
also weekend BBQs and, lest we forget,
their hugely popular quiz and curry night
every Thursday.
Located on a main road and bus
route, a brief walk from Grotto Bay Hotel
and just minutes from the airport and
scenic Crystal Caves, it’s easy to see why
they say that “All roads lead to Swizzle
Inn”! Invariably, this local landmark is
the chosen spot for large events and
birthday parties. Portions are generous
and reasonably priced, plus they’ve got
a second-story dining room, which can
be reserved for private functions. Don’t
forget to visit the Swagger Out Gift Shop
for clothing, hats, souvenirs and glass-
ware to commemorate your meal.
Reservations are recommended
during the summer.
11am-1pm bar, food 11am-10:30pm
The nachos, for one, are out-of-this-world, literally. Piled high with sharp
cheeses, jalapeño rings, BBQ chicken
and even chilli, these towering creations
are best enjoyed with a friend (or two!).
Guests of all ages will enjoy browsing Swizzle Inn’s creative menus, which
are printed in the style of a newspaper
and are kid, gluten-free, vegetarian and
vegan friendly. Two very popular dishes
are the steamed mussels, flavoured with
garlic and white wine, and the famous
Bailey’s Bay battered fish sandwich
topped with all the fixings and a generous dollop of tartar sauce. The wings,
tender steaks, and grilled Bermuda rockfish are also high on our list. Creative,
mouth-watering specials are offered
daily by Executive Chef Szabi Donca.
Established in 1932, Swizzle Inn
proudly wears the title of Bermuda’s
oldest pub. Located in a historic 18th
century building, it was named after the
island’s national drink, the Rum Swizzle,
which was created in-house that same
year. Ask any Bermudian and they’ll be
happy to tell you that this restaurant
has perhaps the most unique decor of
any in Bermuda. First and foremost are
the walls, which are covered down to
the very last square inch with stickers,
flyers, memorabilia and business cards
fondly left behind by previous Swiz-
zlers. Then there’s the furniture, much
of which dates back to the early 20th
century, as well as the cozy pub bar and
working fireplace, upstairs.
Known for its fun, bustling atmo-
sphere, helpful wait staff, award-win-
ning bartenders and an ample menu that
has something for everyone, Swizzle
encourages guests to sit back, relax and
have a good time. With seating available
on two levels, both indoors and out, you
can choose to people-watch down-
stairs, enjoy the view from the balcony
