The Swizzle: The Only Restaurant in Bermuda That Matters


Your first priority on your Bermuda vacation probably will be to kick back at the beach. From the Horseshoe Bay to Elbow beach, there are some amazing beaches and the pink sand is gorgeous.

After a long day at the beach I found myself looking for some good food. And because I only allowed myself to eat out once a day I had to find the best place in town that fit my budget. (Bermuda is very expensive) I found a place that was absolutely amazing. The Swizzle! It happens to be Bermuda's oldest restaurant and pub. The second you walk in to the restaurant you’ll notice that its decorations come from many years of visitors. The décor ranges from business cards stapled to the walls, graffiti, and names carved into the wood of the tables which gives The Swizzle a rare feel all it’s own, one you won’t find many other places in the world.

At the The Swizzle you can get anything from Burgers to a nice Portuguese bean soup, I had just about everything on the menu but the Swizzle burger was my favorite. When we got there the first time, my buddy was a little hung over and the waitress even brewed up some drink for him that totally killed his hangover!

If you like rum, you are in luck. The Swizzle has an in-house drink called the “The Rum Swizzle.” This drink is a beautiful blend of two types of Rum, Triple sec, Falernum (sweater), pineapple juice, orange juice, lemon juice, and finally, a bit of angostura bitters. This blend is not only unique to Bermuda but exclusive to The Swizzle Inn.


The original Swizzle Inn is located not too far from the airport and any taxi driver will know exactly where to drop you off. Just ask to go to The Swizzle. Recently there has been a second Swizzle to open up. Its on the other side of the island really close to the beach on the south shore.

When in Bermuda, The Swizzle is a must visit location. http://www.swizzleinn.com/
