About Us
The Old Smugglers Inn can be found nestling in Ouaisne Bay and offers a warm welcome no matter what time of the year you find us.

Look no further than The Old Smugglers Inn for some of the finest traditional pub fayre you will find anywhere in the British Isles. A retreat in Ouaisne bay, the Inn is a popular haunt with both visitors and locals who make this a regular port of call throughout the year.

In the summer enjoy sizzling steaks, daily fresh seafood with a good selection of wines and real ales in the adjoining restaurant. In the winter cosy up to one of our two blazing log fires and enjoy the warmth the Smugglers has to offer. A friendly welcome awaits you whenever you choose to visit The Old Smugglers Inn, and our experienced head chef ensures there will always be something on the menu to tantalise your taste buds.

“We love to use fresh Jersey produce as much as possible and our specials board often reflects this,” says Alves who has been head chef at the Smugglers for the past 10 years. “We pride ourselves on our comprehensive steak menu, but we also cater for those who enjoy traditional dishes like home made sausages and red onion gravy and delicious home made steak and Guinness pies. But if you just want to indulge in fish and chips then we can also fit that bill too.”

History

The Old Smugglers Inn is steeped in history, which dates back to the days when the bay resounded to the sound of pirates singing as they brought ashore their ill-gotten gains.

The pirates would enjoy a draft or two of the best ales of the day, a tradition that still lives on with fishermen and locals at the modern day Old Smugglers Inn bar.

Real Ales are another important attraction and throughout the year the Inn organises its popular Real Ale festivals. The Smugglers has been part of the landscape since the 17th Century and has built up a reputation for being a country retreat with good food, great ales and a warm and friendly welcome, which will have you returning time after time.

The foundations of the present Inn were first laid as two fishermans cottages reputedly in the 13th century. These fell into disuse and disrepair and it was not until the early 1900′s that the cottages were enlarged and developed . Most of the original granite work, beams and fireplaces were incorporated into The Old Smugglers Inn.

After the second world war and German occupation, the building underwent further changes and the Smugglers Inn emerged as the popular local hostelry with a worthy reputation for its good food and fine ale.

In recent years, the Smugglers has been extended to provide additional seating capacity in the restaurant. The new stone work, beams and decor has incorporated the old character and charm of the original property to ensure The Old Smugglers Inn is in keeping with its historical authenticity.
