That sounds like a fun spot. Thanks for sharing.

Articles mention it is a former BDA Ferry, wonder if it is the old Deliverance or the Patience. I think she can still sail, which might make for some fun party cruises..

Would love to see the menu and drink prices when someone goes there.

The have a Facebook page, just not a lot on their yet..

It SURE looks like it could be one of those.

Maybe they'll post a menu on FB but they did say drinks would be cheap, of course cheap is all relative.:D

[meatball_nyc]

Peg, we will be there in a couple weeks. Definitely plan to go to Calico Jack's at least once.

If they don't add more to their FB page by then, I will take some pics of their menus and report back here.

Cheers!!

That would be great maybe stop in there when we go in october aboard explorer....

As I watch/listen to the Bermuda web cam, I wonder if the music I am hearing is coming from this venue. Sounds very inviting, if so.

Thank you. It's going to be hard not to at least stop in for a quick drink and look around. We'll be passing it every time we go anywhere! When walking from the ship to the ferry/bus stops - it's on the right while the ferry is on the left. :)

I would say this is very likely. Looking at the cam right now, I can see Calico Jack's.

Music sounded great from the webcam last night - must stop in also.

[meatball_nyc]

Is that Calico Jack's at the bottom right on the cam? Just above the PTZTV logo?

At night I watch it on my iPad and audio is not supported. Can't hear anything.

Yes that is Calico Jack's. At least on my desktop version, there is a sound on/off button on the website.

I don't think it is either one of those, but I can find out. I do know there was a fire on an old ferry up in Dockyard earlier this year and it's probably the same boat and the name was mentioned there (they were working on it and I believe they were welding something when the fire broke out).

[modelman]

I have been told it is the old Patience. The Deliverance is now a work boat.

Calico Jack's is a way better name for her new life as a Pirate/Party boat;).

[islegroove]

I think it was this boat earlier this year. they have done a heck of job getting it ready after the fire.

We were one of the lucky ones that got diverted to Bermuda over the holiday weekend on the Splendor. It will be interesting to see if they have bar snacks at night. They do not have a menu because there is no food at all. Not even bar snacks. She said they have all the regular drinks. Two rum swizzles were $18.50, 1 dark rum & diet coke and a Miller Lite was $12.50. We had fun watching "adult kids" doing shots and jumping from the ship.

 

The first photo is taken from the balcony of the Splendor docked at Heritage Wharf.

You can jump from the 2nd deck and swim near the "pirate ship".

 

Can't wait to see what Robin can add about the night scene at Calico Jack's....and also about the catamaran!

[meatball_nyc]

Thanks Peg! We're going tonight. Here's a pic from my balcony last night.

It was fun to have a drink or two. Never had the chance to jump either. Just ran out if time.

Only food there were bags of peanuts. It's kind of a dive bar for sure. Here's a couple pics.

WELCOME HOME !

 

Am I understanding that Calico Jack's is not a "must do" ?

 

 

Hope you had a great trip !

 

.

[meatball_nyc]

Thank you!

Not a must do unless you like to drink and sweat at the same time during the day. Much better once the sun goes down. We did like hearing the music at night from our balcony.

The music heard on the webcam is definitely from Calico Jack's.

Webcam is on the top left of the Commissioner's House.

Right under the roof. It's white.
