The Dam Bar & Grill

Welcome

Its nice to see you..

Tucked cozily beside the stunning Carr Mill Dam, we’ve got all the essentials: mouth watering food, thirst-quenching drinks, and a view so good it might just steal your chips. We’re not ones to brag (okay, maybe a little), but we’ve been crowned the best beer garden in St. Helens two years in a row—cheers to that! 

Bring the family, the dog, or even that one friend who always steals your fries, and come chill with us, rain or shine, all year long!

We host

Powerboat Racing

All year round, we play host to the amazing Lancashire Power Racing Club’s action-packed race days. And guess what? Our beer garden doubles as the ultimate front-row seat for these high-octane spectacles. Great drinks, epic views, and roaring engines—what more could you want?

Race days at the Dam are an aquatic rollercoaster of excitement—boats of every shape, size, and style zooming around like they’ve just been told it’s last orders at the bar. And if you’re lucky, you’ll witness the Formula 2 catamarans skimming the water like turbo-charged skipping stones, hitting speeds of up to 120mph. It’s the kind of spectacle that’ll make you say, “Wait, boats can do that?!”
