North Rock Brewing Company

Frommer's Review

Although beer is brewed by other enterprises in Bermuda, this is the only brewery on the island that serves most, if not all, of its product on the premises. The setting is a smoky, and sometimes rowdy, replica of an English pub, complete with ceiling beams and paneling, plus a casually upscale dining room outfitted in shades of burgundy and forest green. Most patrons tend to gravitate to the dining room, but died-in-the-wool locals sometimes opt to spend their entire time, meal and all, in the pub section, where views of copper-sided fermentation vats are visible through plate-glass windows.

If you come here to drink the local brew, that's fine, but we suggest you stick around for the cuisine too. This is not the typical pub grub dished up at one of those Front Street drinking emporiums in the City of Hamilton. Dishes here have flair, like the Brewmaster's veal chop, grilled and served with grain and Dijon mustard sauce. You can also order pub classics such as steak-and-ale pie, or perhaps beef and mushrooms simmered in porter ale. The fish and chips aren't bad either, and we like the luscious pork tenderloin and the codfish cakes. Unless you order expensive shellfish, most dishes are inexpensively priced.
