Hog Penny And Pub - Hamilton

I absolutely love this place! It serves the best brain cake in Bermuda, and their fish and chips are fantastic. The service is consistently excellent. It’s a wonderful pub that I really should visit more often. Plus, the garlic dishes are delicious. With great prices and a lovely atmosphere, it’s the perfect spot!

This time around, we felt that the food didn't quite meet the expectations we had from our previous visit, which had been better than average for a pub. The Bermuda fish chowder was adequate, but the portion was small and it was warm, rather than hot. My cheddar and apple salad had plenty of cheddar but was lacking in salad, making the portion seem inadequate. As for the local fish dish my partner ordered, while it was cooked well, the side it came with had a strange texture. His apple cake, part of a three-course meal, was disappointing and not indicative of the quality you'd expect from a food establishment. Despite these issues, I might give it another try, as it could have been a post-COVID hiccup. Interestingly, the barracuda we had earlier that week was much better and it’s from the same restaurant group.

Two orders were placed. The food was decent, but there wasn't much cheese or other toppings on them. At the end of the meal, when we asked the server for help in getting a taxi, he replied, "I'm new, I don't know," and then walked away.

It's always a pleasure. we have come here for many years and it is about special occasions.

Great pub food and their draft ale was quite nice. Fun place.
