Commander Samuel Blyth and Lt. William Burrows
"The captain of HMS Boxer, Commander Samuel Blyth, was killed early in the action by a cannonball; had he lived he might have defended his ship more desperately, but it is not probable with more success. It was his fate now to receive like courtesy at the hands of his enemy. His remains, in company with those of the brave Lieutenant William Burrows, were brought to Portland, where they were interred with military honours in Eastern Cemetery. It was a striking and affecting sight, to behold two gallant commanders, who had lately been arrayed in deadly hostility against each other, descending into one quiet grave, there to mingle their dust peacefully together."

The bar is cool, service and atmosphere is great, but both drinks (lager and cider) we ordered we did not enjoy. The goat cheese was very good but came with burnt crostini. I think the cocktail menu is probably the most interesting part but we didnt try it.

Amazing cocktails, super cute atmosphere, and friendly service. I can't remember the name but you have to try their version of the espresso martini!

An absolute gem of a bar. We went for after dinner drinks and were blown away by the flavors and uniqueness of the cocktails. My wife is pregnant so she opted for mocktails which the bartender happily obliged and created a delicious drink. I had the Ship Captain Crew which was delicious but the mind blowing drink was the Tom Yum Punch, a clarified milk cocktail which had ALL the flavors of Tom Yum without it being overbearing.
