Hearty British fare is the daily bread at the Carriage House, an attractive slice of the restored Somers Wharf area. Try to secure a table outside on the patio or inside by a window so you can watch the action on the harbor. This is the place to tuck into roast prime rib, cut to order tableside, or rack of lamb with rosemary. Don't overlook the fresh Bermuda fish, like panfried wahoo or rockfish in lemon-butter sauce. Sunday the Carriage House lays out a generous brunch buffet that includes champagne, while a pianist plays background music. There is sometimes live entertainment in the evenings.

We ate a late lunch here on a Saturday afternoon and found the food to be excellent. I had the Fish Chowder, a Bermuda specialty, and was pleased to find it pleasantly spicy and filling. My dining companions had the Fish Sandwich; one had fried fish and the other had grilled fish, and both were declared delicious. The portions are a nice size (not super-sized!) and arrived at the table piping hot from the kitchen. The service was good, although water glasses were not refilled unless you requested it. Possibly because of the water conservation efforts of all Bermudians. We were seated inside and not near a window, but still had a fantastic view of the harbor area. The restaurant is light and airy with a high ceiling, which made for a pleasing atmosphere.
