A huge rum selection to cater for all tastes. Service was excellent. Decorative benches by previous customers. Outdoor sitting is lovely to enjoy views of Charlestown.

How cool and quirky is this place! A hidden gem of a bar selling hundreds of Rums and Gins! Loved it! Although we only stayed for 1 drink each due to having the children with us! A definite visit and longer stay if child free! We sampled 2 different cherry rums on the rocks! Lush! Friendly business owners! Who even recognised our Midlands accents to the post code nearly! 😂 We can highly rate this business. Go on in! Up the stairs! Don’t be shy! 🍹 🙏🏼 🍹

Great niche bar! If you like rum or gin they have almost everything. Lots of variety on offer served by Andy who has an almost limitless variety of exceptional spirts and the knowledge to go with them. Loved our visit and will return!

A MUST visit when in Charlestown! Steve will serve you up with anything rum based! And probably anything spirit based!! What a selection 👌 Not much room upstairs so you get chatting to everyone in there which was brilliant! Dog friendly. Dark n Stormy is my new favourite tipple 😁

A little treasure nestled in the harbour wall, with lots of rum and other spirits to choose from. Great idea and it's got a beautiful cosy vibe on the inside with plenty of seating outside to enjoy the harbour view. ☀️ Very knowledgeable and friendly owner, and well worth a visit whether you are a rum enthusiast or a newbie.

Absolutely blown away with the range of rum to offer. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful and very informative about the different rums. It Is a place I definitely would recommend to see even if you don't drink alcohol. We called here on our holiday from Northern Ireland, and one of the two gentlemen working used to spend his summer holidays over in Northern Ireland. It has a small area for seating for about 10 and more seating outside.

Amazing little bar on the side of the bay in Charlestown. Get transported back in time. The size of your living room literally and full of character. Over 500 rums avaliable and 200 gins. You could get whisked away trying them all. Only flaw is it closes 10pm because of where it's based. Definitely recommended! 5*

Really lovely, friendly vibe to this place when we stopped for some lunch. The pizza was superb and rivalled any we've had in Venice or Milan and the accompanying Pina Colada was perfect. I wish we had more time to stick around and sample a few more offerings.

Nice lunch stop here. Plenty of seating by the harbour and a selection of ciabatta fillings for food. Unfortunately the pizzas weren’t available and they don’t do any lattes or cappuccinos only straight coffee, team and hot chocolate. It would have been good to have had the option to add some chips with the toastie just to finish it off

More of an experience than a bar! Beautiful location set in the harbourside of Charlestown, the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable about their VAST range of spirits. If you aren't sure what to pick you can play 'Battleships' for a random choice! Great fun and a relaxed vibe, can't wait to come back soon!

Visited twice over the May Bank weekend. What an experience - where to begin? It was a beautiful sunny afternoon and inebriation was on our horizon.  We had just pulled into Charlestown and was looking for a sunny spot to sink some Cidres in the sun.  However, whilst working our way through the second pint we remembered that there was no toilet paper in our AirBnB. When owner / operator Ash came over and asked for our next order we mentioned to him that we had to leave because we needed to drive to the Lidl to get more toilet paper.  Ash noted to us that his office was just across the road and he would happily grab some bogroll for us. In a flash, the man in the yellow hoodie whipped across the road and returned with a high-quality three ply quilted (and seashell patterned) toilet roll. It was a delight to use. As for the drinks - they were equally as bespoke and high quality as the toilet paper.  With over 223 rums to choose from you are spoilt for choice. The gents working at the bar are super knowledgeable and very happy to recommend a drink combo.  Our group was not all huge rum drinkers, but the guys were happy to help out and recommend different flavor combinations to make some delicious cocktails. Could not recommend highly enough - beautiful setting right on the Harbour, great service and excellent booze.  Will definitely be back.

Had a great evening here. Matt behind the bar was full of recommendations and ideas for how to progress our rum journey over the course of the evening. Small, intimate venue which certainly deserves another visit. Allowed us to bring our harbour BBQ food in to eat too. Thoroughly recommend an evening here.

What a find. Stumbled on Rum Sailor last night (literally and figuratively) and was welcomed by the founding team - local friends with a shared love of good rum and nice people. Sitting on top of the little port, looking back at, what is effectively the set of Poldark, the worlds smallest bar (by 28ft, we’re told) is definitely one to break from the well trodden path and make a visit. A passion for rum not required for visitors - the team has plenty for everyone. On colder days I can imagine it providing the essential “tot” of rum for the more adventurous low tide, pier jumpers. All in all a very little bar shrouded in loveliness.
