jordans mom Posted August 5, 2016 #1 Ā Share Posted August 5, 2016 We are trying to remember the name of an AWESOME dive bar that we whiled the night away 3 years ago near the Royal Dockyard - if I recall - it was walking away from Mall on Pender Rd(I think?) it was on the right hand side just before a small bridge overpass heading SW out of the dockyard area....kind of a non-descript building set off the road, slightly offset behind another food shack....this place had restaurant seating and a bar in the back - couple running the place were Brit ex pats? so lots of Brit flags and stuff....Can anyone let me know if it is still there and the name - - we are heading back to Bermuda in about 2 weeks and would love to spend another tropical night there! Ā Great conch fritters too!:):D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njhorseman Posted August 5, 2016 #2 Ā Share Posted August 5, 2016 (edited) Based on your description of the location, I suspect it was the Freeport Bar and Restaurant. It's now under new ownership and has a new name, Anchor Restaurant, Bar and Lounge.

iheartbda Posted August 6, 2016 #3 Ā Share Posted August 6, 2016 I'm wondering if it's the Prison Officers Recreation Club, that's more of a dive and it's on Pender Rd.

Ya' never know, they could be ex-cons too.:D Sometimes people get things mixed up between places as far as dĆ©cor but you're probably correct.

doones2 Posted August 14, 2016 #6 Ā Share Posted August 14, 2016 Sounds like the Freeport bar. I remember a couple owned it. She was American and he was Italian. I wouldn't call it a dive bar though. I am sorry to hear it was sold. We enjoyed stopping by there for a few drinks before heading back to the ship. šŗš¹ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islegroove Posted August 15, 2016 #7 Ā Share Posted August 15, 2016 (edited) I ate at Anchor for the first time there with friends last Saturday on the back patio. They had some great reggae playing during happy hour then switched to smooth jazz for the dinner/evening time. Ā The staff was attentive. The food was good, but average.
