Slaughterhouse, St Peter Port Town, St. Peter Port

Former abbatoir which now has a modern interior over multiple levels. The bar is at the lower level with dining areas both upstairs, downstairs and on an intermediate level. There are exposed girders with hooks still hanging from rails, numerous plants and skylights above that. Modern music was being played. There are a couple of handpulls, which were dispensing Randall's Bulldog & Firebird Two Horses. Keg beers included Camden Pale & Beavertown Neck Oil. The cider was Roquette Cider. There is an outdoor patio drinking area, with its own outdoor bar. This was proving quite popular on my sunny Thursday afternoon visit. The pub has a handy position overlooking the harbour and opposite the bus terminus, which allowed me to get here from the airport in double-quick time.

Winner of CAMRA Design Award in 2019 and it’s not difficult to see why. The building is a great conversion from a former abattoir. It’s a very modern layout with a large outdoor terrace and separate internal bar area which can accommodate vertical drinking and then a dining area spread over two levels. Ideal location on the harbour-side and both the terrace and the waterside mezzanine restaurant level offer fine views over Havelet Bay and the harbour. It’s a Randalls managed pub restaurant and the bar supports three cask ale hand pumps and several craft keg options. Two Randall’s ales were on for our late night visit and we went for the Golden Guernsey Pale Ale which poured ok for the first few but then we hit the end of the barrel which couldn’t be changed due to the lateness of the hour.
