CURRENCY CONVERTER

Almost two centuries old, this landmark British-inspired pub with an adjoining restaurant is still a Nassau favorite, patronized by locals and visitors alike. Green Shutters features the best selections of beers in town, and the food is good, too. You can sip a pint of Guinness in the pub and enjoy such grub as steak-and-kidney pie, or else go into the restaurant and peruse the menu. Appetizers are savory, including tomatoes stuffed with minced lobster and mozzarella. Bahamian conch chowder appears daily on the menu, given zest by a tomato base, and Cuban black-bean soup is also a regular feature. Main dishes are very familiar fare -- nothing innovative or experimental here. We usually select the grilled Nassau grouper, or else you can go fancy and order the fish stuffed with minced lobster and topped with a spicy sweet glaze. The fresh catch of the day is always sold at market price. Beef lovers get a wide array of offerings, everything from beef Wellington to pan-seared New York sirloin. On Friday and Saturday nights a calypso band entertains.

Main courses $15-$31; pub platters $8.95-$23.Open: Daily 11:30am-midnight.Reservations recommended in restaurant.Credit Cards: AE, MC, V.
