The Barnacle's Grip

The tavern was originally the Wanderlust, a merchant galleon that ran aground during a massive storm forty years ago.

Overview

History

The tavern was originally the Wanderlust, a merchant galleon that ran aground during a massive storm forty years ago. Instead of salvaging the wood, a group of sailors reinforced the hull and opened for business where she sat on the mudflats.

Quirks

The tavern is built from the literal hull of a shipwrecked galleon; the floorboards groan like a ship at sea and the entire building lists slightly to the port side, forcing patrons to lean when they walk.
