24 Best Restaurants in Bermuda

Choose from over a dozen homemade all-natural ice creams at this iconic parlor easily identified by its bright turquoise exterior. There are plenty of fun flavors for kids, including Shrek (noted by its customary green color—don't worry it tastes good!), plus classics like butter pecan and their signature Oreo sweet cream. You can also have your ice cream in a sundae, such as a Dusty Road—ice cream sprinkled with malt powder, a drizzle of chocolate sauce, whipped cream, and a cherry—or whipped into a milkshake. Take your cone and enjoy a stroll through the gardens that connect the ice cream parlor to adjacent Crystal and Fantasy Caves. 

Located just across from Horseshoe Bay, one of Bermuda’s most popular beaches, this restaurant serves up a variety of surf-and-turf dishes, including oysters, clams, and lobster, as well as sushi and plenty of options for vegetarians and selective eaters. Guests rave about the thin-crust pizzas and fresh fish, with sandwiches, tacos, and wraps offering satisfying alternatives after a day at the beach. Finger-licking starters round out the menu, while a sophisticated wine list and tempting desserts make for a perfect end to a meal under the island sun. Note that the restaurant is closed between lunch and dinner during the winter season.

As popular with locals as it is with vacationers from nearby Southampton resorts, the lively Henry VIII exudes an Old English charm that stops just short of \"wench\" waitresses and Tudor styling. It's a bit pricey for what you get, but you can find a mix of English and Bermudian menu favorites, including lamb chop, pan-fried rockfish, and Indian curries. Save room for the chocolate fudge cake. There's also a sushi bar and an eat-as-much-as-you-can Sunday brunch. For alfresco dining, sit on the patio overlooking the southern coast. You won't find a jester to entertain you, but a jazz duo and DJ perform weekly. After dinner, the large dance floor gets crowded as Henry's turns into a popular nightspot, especially on Sunday.

Year after year, this long-standing Hamilton eatery has remained a family favorite, with good reason. The yellow and brick interior is warm and inviting, and the waiters are always friendly. Without a doubt the king of the menu is pizza—La Trattoria's pies are fired in a brick, wood-burning 600°F pizza oven. Opt for a traditional margherita, the savory Arugula (with spicy arugula, salty prosciutto, and mozzarella), or even splurge on the Gold Pizza, which has edible gold flakes. Or you can create your own pie from a list of over 20 inventive toppings. If you're not feeling pizza, there's also a variety of pasta options and seafood dishes. If you order the house wine, ask for it to be served in one of their signature ceramic chicken pitchers. This spot is usually packed with locals, both at dinnertime and during the workday lunch rush, so it's best to reserve ahead.

Find yourself at Lost in the Triangle (LITT), a Bermudian-run seafood restaurant taking over from the Swizzle Inn's sister spot. Some may recall LITT from its award-winning tenure in the city of Hamilton. After COVID closures, owner and avid fisherman Delvin Bean was able to reopen and continue serving his signature dishes and fresh, locally caught fish. The atmosphere is welcoming, with TVs tuned to sports or cartoons for the little ones. Bike parking is ample. 

With a name like Wahoo's, it's no surprise that this restaurant's menu features a wide variety of fresh local seafood. Though often crowded, the patio offers an unbeatable view of the water; kids will love throwing scraps to schools of fish near the dock. Check the blackboard for the catch-of-the-day specials, and be sure to try the ever-popular wahoo tacos or wahoo nuggets. Whether it's served in a creamy chowder, on a bun, or over vegetables, Wahoo's does fish right.

Located at the entrance to the Royal Naval Dockyard, the Anchor Restaurant serves up fresh seafood and contemporary favorites.

At this Victorian-style bar and restaurant renovated from a former jewelry shop, the menu lists traditional gastropub offerings, including Scotch eggs and balti chicken pie (flaky pastry filled with spiced chicken).

On evenings and weekends, the large, impressively decorated wooden bar that dominates an entire side of the room fills up with happy-hour and late-night revelers.

Takeout is available from the lobby, just across from the main entrance.

Tucked inside the Washington Mall, this café run by a husband-and-wife team is best known for its outstanding breakfasts, changing lunch specials, and friendly service.

Bermudians swear by this spot, where a maritime-themed dining room is filled with brass nautical gear, lobster traps, and sun-bleached rope. The fresh local lobster, available September through March, is most requested, next to rockfish, snapper, wahoo, and mahi-mahi with fried bananas and almonds, all local favorites. Ask for your seafood to be cooked to your liking and be sure to try the Bermudian classic dish: fish chowder. The curried fish cake is a particular favorite, topped with tartar sauce and served on a bun.

A former whiskey warehouse, this is now a lively restaurant serving crowd-pleasing Bermudian cuisine, as well as a handful of Latin- and Asian-flavored dishes.

Try a creative cocktail concoction or a local beer from Dockyard Brewing Company. And save room if you're a dessert lover—it's hard to choose but the dark chocolate salted caramel pie is a must for chocolate lovers.

Even after a refurbishment and update to the interior of this Italian-owned restaurant, it still has all the charm of an unassuming-but-good eatery in a small Italian village. On balmy evenings, share the calamari or garlic bread—two starters for which the restaurant is renowned—outside on the dining area patio, and then move on to the pastas and pizzas. You can't go wrong with the pasta featuring the day's local catch or the classic margherita pizza. For dessert, try the tiramisu. Prices and portions are decent, and there's even a separate take-out section, complete with its own entrance, so you can pick up your dinner.

When it comes to iconic Bermudian food, the battered fish sandwich reigns supreme. While Seaside Grill may be a simple take-out counter overlooking North Shore, it has perfected this towering sandwich and earned rave reviews. Choose from locally caught wahoo or mahimahi, and watch as they pile crispy spiced fish onto your choice of homemade bread. For a true local twist, try it on raisin bread with sliced onion, tartar sauce, and coleslaw. Seaside Grill also offers fresh fish and seafood on salads, fish dinners with two sides, hamburgers, and chicken wings. With locations in Devonshire and Southampton, it's a must-try for a taste of Bermuda.

Overlooking Mangrove Bay, this well-worn tavern is all dark wood and good cheer, with a great deal of malt and hops in between. The food is simple, but a few items stand out: the Bermuda fish chowder, panfried rockfish, and steak sandwich are all delicious. In-house nightly specials are another draw, as are the occasional live musicians and casual barbecues. The scenic view of the beach, dock, and moored boats is also unique.
