user reviews of the Rockmount, Castel

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

Stayed next door at the Cobo Bay for a couple of nights several weeks ago and, as usual, eat at the Rockmount.
On going in absolutely dumbfounded! The interior had been completely changed. Gone are the carpets to be replaced by wood floors. The bar which served both the Lounge and the Public Bar had been shunted a distance down the wall toward the sea!
Happily the same high standard of food, a decent pint and an eclectic mix of oddballs and serious folk!
Still my favourite pub in Guernsey! Looking forward to a return in October.

Potentially during the summer months this boozer should be one of Guernseys finest locations. Unfortunately for me i dont find the public bar too exciting and the front bar with the views and outside seating area 10 feet away from the beach SHOULD be great, but is spoiled by the sort of people who wear their sunglasses on their heads at night in the middle of winter. Too many nobodies who think they are sporting heroes/somebodies.

One of the few pubs that have the local beer on hand pump. Not ideal for a night out but ideal on a hot summers day. Snooker room too.

Probably Guernsey's most popular out-of-town pub. Local beers on tap, second-to-none bar lunches and delightful views over Cobo Bay. Spectacular in winter, when from the comfort of the front bar you can watch Atlantic breakers pounding the sea wall, just across the road.

This pub comes with another brilloiant feaature: a large window with a view overlooking the sea in a westerly direction. The sunset views are fantastic!

Probably the nicest pub I've ever patronised! The beer is well kept including Guernsey Bitter. Wine list is excellent and the food out of this world.
Moules Mariniere in garlic & onion are beyond description and the steaks melt in the mouth. View across Codo Bay are superb. My idea of heaven; a bowl of moules, a bottle of muscadet and a good book all ingested in a window seat. Paradise!!!!
