10 Best Things to Do After Dinner in Bermuda

ÜberVida Mini Cruise is an evening excursion in the waters surrounding Bermuda. Each catamaran cruise lasts around 90 minutes, taking you to Hamilton Harbour, Paradise Lakes, and the Great Sound. Onboard, you can enjoy a full bar that accepts payment by cash and credit card. It serves tropical cocktails – try the margarita or pineapple sherbet – and imported wines by the glass or bottle.

ÜberVida Mini Cruise offers 2 departure times, both from Hamilton. The first cruise returns by 7.30 pm – convenient if you have dinner reservations – and the second docks at 8 pm.

The Daylesford Theatre showcases performances by the Bermuda Musical & Dramatic Society. Established on Washington Street in 1945, it’s a great place to see these local artists put on a great show to an enthusiastic audience of around 120 people.

The diverse programme ranges from musicals and pantomimes to modern playwrights and classics from Shakespeare. Tickets are available online and at the box office – shows usually start at 8 pm. The Daylesford Theatre is just across the street from Victoria Park.

The Bermuda Haunted History Tour is a walking excursion in UNESCO-listed St George’s. Founded in 1612, it’s the oldest continuously inhabited British settlement in the Americas. As you wander along cobbled lanes and duck into narrow alleyways, a guide in period costume will regale you with tales of those who have lived and died within the past 4 centuries.

Learn about Captain George Dew, a pirate who swapped his swashbuckling life for a serene retirement, playing the harpsichord at the Rectory. Another local ghost, known only as George, is said to haunt Fort St Catherine with his spooky chanting.

The Swizzle Inn opened in 1932, making this one of the island’s oldest pubs. It’s where Bermuda’s famous Rum Swizzle was invented – a cocktail that blends 2 different rums from the local Gosling distillery, shaken with spices, bitters and citrus juice.

The Swizzle Inn’s bold façade is as brightly coloured as its cocktails. Its eclectic interior consists of graffitied walls, business cards, and dollar bills poking from the beams. You can also check out books left by previous patrons, many of which date back to the inn’s early days.

The White Horse Pub & Restaurant is a historic drinking establishment in St. George’s. While the pub was established in 1930, the building it occupies (previously called the Esten House) dates back to the 18^th century.

Today, the White Horse Pub & Restaurant boasts a waterfront location just east of St George's Ferry Terminal. It's an all-day gastropub, serving western favourites like fish tacos, burgers, pizzas, and salads. There’s also a kids’ menu, so everyone can enjoy a nice meal at this family-friendly spot.

The Birdcage is a rooftop bar overlooking Hamilton Harbour in Bermuda. You can find it on Front Street, around 300 metres east of the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club and Barr's Bay Park. It has a spacious, partially covered wooden deck with pink and white steel furniture. There’s also a turquoise wall that’s great for selfies and Instagram shots.

The Birdcage’s extensive cocktail list features classics like the Dark ‘n’ Stormy – a luscious blend of rum, ginger beer and lime – as well as its signature Hey Bird. You can also enjoy a nice selection of local rums, tequilas, wines, beers, and non-alcoholic options.

Bermuda Bistro is a prominent nightspot overlooking Hamilton Inner Harbour. It’s one of the best places for drinking, dancing, and late-night dining in Bermuda.

There’s a large plasma screen showing all the major baseball, basketball, football, and hockey games, making Bermuda Bistro a top spot for sports fans looking to catch a game in Hamilton. Meanwhile, live DJs and a good choice of beers, spirits and cocktails keep clubbers happy until the early hours.

When Sunsets, Bonfires and Bohemia takes place at Tobacco Beach, you’ll know that summer has arrived in Bermuda. This beach party takes place on Friday evenings, featuring bonfires and live music on the warm sand.  

Local vendors offer a wide range of pub grub, such as brisket, ribs, grilled snapper, and jerk chicken. You can also enjoy great offers on drinks. Sunsets, Bonfires and Bohemia is one of the most popular events on the island – dress up in your best beach-chic style, hop on a shuttle bus from St George’s, kick off your shoes, and enjoy the festivities.

The Hog Penny opened as a pub in 1957, but it originally served as a meat slaughterhouse and bicycle shop selling penny-farthings. This might explain the establishment’s unusual name. The owners claim the pub was the inspiration for the long-running US sitcom Cheers, though the interior more closely resembles a classic British tavern.

Food-wise, The Hog Penny serves nachos, chicken pot pie, fish and chips, prime rib sliders and shepherd’s pie. We highly recommend the cocktails, especially the Happy's Famous Rum Swizzle, Hog Penny Bloody Mary, and Banana Rama.

Cosmopolitan Ultra Lounge & Nightclub is one of the best-known dance spots in Bermuda. The name’s a bit of a mouthful, so the locals usually shorten it to Cosmo. If you love dancing to the sounds of house, hip hop, reggae, soca and electronica, this is the place to be in Hamilton. 

There's an open-air dancefloor for warm summer nights. The Ultra Lounge has rainbow-hued mood lighting, which adds to the chic and sultry atmosphere. You can find the nightclub along Front Street, around 450 metres east of the Hamilton Ferry Terminal.
