What players say

I really liked the atmosphere. It's pretty much just a pub, but on Cannery Row, it's a nice escape. Decent selection of brews, a nice offering of cocktails, including a real Dark & Stormy. I only had the pretzel bites, which I enjoyed, but the menu had something for everyone.

★★★★★ Greg, Jun 2022

Fish chowder was fantastic and fish and chips were fresh, with a great batter and a lot of fish. Stopped by here after seeing an ad. Staff was extremely friendly, always asking how things were and could anything be better. Had a great time, with good food and reasonable prices.

★★★★★ Robert, Sep 2021

Fun place for a bite and cocktail. Their menu advertised a traditional Bermuda Fish Chowder, and I was all in. I had the chowder with the splash of black rum and sherry pepper sauce (love the stuff), my SIL had the Mexican Street Corn Soup and we shared the Sticky Bourbon Pork Belly appetizer.
