Frog & Onion Pub and Restaurant

16 Best Bars in Bermuda, From Front Street Dives to Waterfront Local Breweries | Condé Nast Traveler

"The Frog & Onion Pub has the unique distinction of being housed in a converted 18th-century stone cooperage where barrels were once built for the British Royal Navy. In fact, much of its purpose-built pomp is still on display, most notably in the main dining room, where a gigantic stone fireplace, once used by blacksmiths to forge galvanized iron hoops, is decked out in medieval-looking candelabras dripping with wax. International flags hang from soaring ceilings, collections of old glass bottles adorn wooden shelves, and old-school nautical artifacts decorate Bermuda’s most beloved west end pub. This pub features six draft beers, all brewed onsite at the Dockyard Brewing Company. Made with Bermuda rainwater and a selection of international hops and barley, the offerings include a traditional German hefeweizen, light-style pilsner, copper-colored amber ale, hoppy IPA, classic London porter, and seasonal brewmaster’s beer of choice." - David LaHuta

"When you think of the word pub, chances are you picture something like this place. Housed in the old Cooperage of the Royal Navy Dockyard, this causal bar-slash-restaurant is all about cozy atmosphere; there’s even a fireplace that was originally a forge used to produce iron hoops for barrels. The menu showcases comfort food—fish-and-chips, savory pies, and brisket with Yorkshire puddings—not to mention some local touches like the pepper jam served with red-onion rings. Enjoy a pint or two of ale, pilsner, or porter from the onsite Dockyard Brewing Company (the most established of the breweries on the island). The hoppy offerings change regularly."
