Mermaid Inn Reviews
THE best acoustic open mic anywhere near here. Second Thursdays. Starts at 7. Be there by then if you want an earlier spot. No sound system. No microphones. A small, intimate room where people actually come to LISTEN. Some excellent musicians come regularly, but open to all. Poetry and spoken word is welcome. Ongoing for over 25 years. A supportive and appreciative audience.
A hidden treasure. Great listening room for music of all styles in a colonial era building. The bar itself could be in a museum, built of teak wood. A great gathering place for everyone. Love this place.

Despite being a little run-down, the Mermaid is understandably well-loved for its historic building retaining much of its architectural detail & charm. The colonial era inn claims the finely-detailed rich brown wood bar is original.We visited for the first time to see the final performance of the fantastic groove-band the Sacred Cowboys. Great band & fans! Large, supportive crowd!We didn't eat, but the bar staff was efficient & friendly.
