St Johns is probably the best place I've ever been on a pub crawl . Did you ever get to the Crows Nest there?Nonskimmer said:I'll be completely honest. Some of the best bars/pubs I've been to have been right here in Halifax. The Seahorse Tavern, The Old Triangle, The Lower Deck, The Split Crow...Boy, if there's one thing Halifax has in abundance, it's watering holes. Trapper John's in St. John's, Nfld. is a good spot too. That's where I was screeched in.
Great town, St. John's. Very friendly girls.
I've been to Tom and Jerry's in San Juan, pD. It wasn't bad.
Even had a U boats periscope when i visited it plus a crest of just about any corvette or destroyer that had been in the Atlantic in WW2 .Nonskimmer said:Sadly, no. It's private now from what I understand, and we were never able to organize a visit. I'd still love to see the inside of the joint, it's an interesting little piece of St. John's history. Apparently the artifacts from the crews of WWII who visited there are all preserved. It's recognized as a National Historic site, if I'm not mistaken.
I thought you could only get in now through special invite or some such thing. You sure it's still open to the general public? Twice when I was in St. John's, members of the crew expressed an interest to see the place, and both times we fell flat. Once because they were hosting a reunion of some kind, and the second time the ship's liason officer was too lazy to get off his a*s and organize anything. I still wanna see it. I don't get to Newfie land very often anymore.pbfoot said:...and it is still a pub
