Boundary Sports Bar & Grill, Fairmont Southampton, Southampton Parish, Bermuda - Bar Review | Condé Nast Traveler

"What's the story behind this place? When Boundary Sports Bar & Grille opened at the Fairmont Southampton in 2017, it marked the completion of the hotel’s $1 million rejuvenation project, which considerably upgraded the majority of its bars and restaurants. Now this barbecue joint is a fully renovated sports bar where folks can watch their favorite game—or any game, for that matter—on the enormous wall-mounted TVs. In between innings, grab a seat in a low-slung, leather lounge chair or take your beer to the shuffleboard tables. Cool. Who tends to hang out here? Golfers—the bar overlooks Turtle Hill, an executive par-three course—families staying at the Fairmont Southampton, and sports fans here for the Southern barbecue and the big-screen TVs. What should we be drinking? Stick with a beer—Boundary has nearly 20 by the bottle and six on tap, including a couple of local options. What's on the food menu? Traditional Southern barbecue cooked low and slow and smoked onsite in a house blend of mesquite, cherry wood, maple, and hickory. If you’re here with a group, opt for the BBQ Family Platter, which comes with three proteins (say, St. Louis pork ribs, American Wagyu brisket, and chargrilled wahoo with chimichurri and lemon) and two sides (like jalapeño-cheddar cornbread or smoked Bermuda carrots). How's the service? This sports bar is owned and operated by one of the busiest corporate resorts on the island, so everyone—from the bartenders to the bussers—knows exactly what they’re doing. Hospitality is on grand display. So why would you recommend this place, whether or not you're staying at the Fairmont Southampton? There's no better place to watch your favorite team while on vacation. Thankfully for sports fans with family in tow, this is great place to bring the kids—little ones can play table games, including an enormous version of Jenga, while they wait for pizza, mac n’ cheese, and burgers." - David LaHuta
