Jaks Bar & Smokehouse
About
Jaks Bar & Smokehouse is the Isle of Man’s premier destination for live sport, music, and hearty dining, located on the beautiful Douglas Bay frontage at 43 Loch Promenade. The venue boasts three distinct areas: a spacious bar with crystal‑clear screens that catch up to seven live games at once; a 110‑seat Smokehouse restaurant with panoramic sea views; and a stylish Basement Jaks cocktail & prosecco bar that opens every Friday and Saturday night from 6 PM to 1 AM. Whether you’re chasing the thrill of a football match, enjoying a night‑time live band, or savoring a perfectly aged steak, Jaks offers an inclusive, family‑friendly environment with free Wi‑Fi, modern facilities, and a friendly staff that guarantees quick service. Jaks’ culinary team presents a varied menu that includes an evolving steakhouse selection, hearty bar classics, and a wide range of cocktails, shooters, and craft beers – all backed by an extensive wine list. The bar is the island’s first venue to screen simultaneous sports, and the basement’s cocktail programme is celebrated for its bespoke prosecco and inventive drinks. The restaurant also welcomes private functions and corporate lunches, with an entrance separate from the bar for added convenience. The venue’s hours are generous: Monday‑Wednesday 11 AM‑1 AM, Thursday‑Saturday 11 AM‑3 AM, and Sunday 12 PM‑1 AM. Food service runs from 12 PM‑10 PM every day. With flexible booking options and a loyalty card that offers savings on every £100 spent, Jaks is a must‑visit spot for locals and tourists alike.
