Came here for some patio time and got it
What I ate:
- Fish + Chips: This was ... okay. The fish itself was fried well. Fries were delicious but unremarkable. It came with and overly mayo drenched slaw. I feel like I may have ordered the wrong thing
Pros:
- That patio wrapped the corner of the hotel and had that inside/outside feel. The seating areas on the patio all had fire pits, and as the sun set they get very popular
- The view! Right across from the water and the pier
- Drink menu was pretty decent. A nice mix of cocktails, wines, beers
- Staff was friendly, though as the bar got busier, the less I saw of him
- Clientele seemed like a nice mix of visitors and local regulars
- The vibe was right, at least for me. I had debated if I should check out the other hotel bar which was rooftop, but I could hear the loud music all the way down on street level and decided that wasn't the vibe for me. This bar was chill, and the seating was comfortable
Cons:
- I kind of wish there was a tad more shade. It was either sit on the patio side away from the pier and sit in the cold shade, or sit directly in the sun and get warm. It didn't help with the fire pits going. I ended up sitting at a fire pit that didn't work
- The food... For the kind of ambiance of this bar I was disappointed at the food quality. It was just okay, very mediocre. Food menu was small
- Parking I'm not sure what the price was to park at the hotel. I had wandered in off the street after parking at the pier. All day parking at the pier was $10. There is so much street parking, but I couldn't find any that accepted CC, nearly all the ones I saw were coin operated. This is why I ended up parking at the pier lot. I'm sure there are parking lots/structures in the area, but I didn't check.
Would I come again? Sure, but not for the food.
