Haven Harbour Marina Resorts is pleased to announce that Passages Bar & Grill and Admirals Beachside Bar will now operate under new management. We have entered an agreement with John Bragg, owner and operator of Bampen, LLC, to manage both dock bar locations. John and his team are restaurant and hospitality professionals with a proven track record of success, specifically in waterfront locations throughout the Eastern Shore and its beaches – including their current location of Unwined on the Water in Elkton, Md.

“We could not be more pleased to have John and his strong team take the helm of our dock bars,” said Managing Director Charlie Petosa. “We are confident that guests frequenting Passages Bar & Grill and Admirals Beachside Bar will be very happy with the food, beverages and superior service that John and his team will provide.”

“We have been overwhelmed with the support from the Haven Harbour team as we embark on this exciting opportunity,” John added. “We've already begun our hiring, training, facility preparations and menu planning with the goal of delighting the many guests of Haven Harbour, the folks from the greater Chesapeake Bay boating community, as well as the friendly people of Rock Hall.” 

Passages Bar & Grill will open May 9 followed by the opening of Admirals Beachside Bar in mid-May. Both will operate well into the fall. Once the weather turns, look for many indoor special events and dining opportunities during Winter 2025-2026. Follow Passages and Admirals Beachside Bar on Facebook.

Passages Bar & Grill is located at Haven Harbour Marina; 20832 Rock Hall Ave, Rock Hall, Md. Admirals Beachside Bar & Grill is located at Haven Harbour South; 21140 Green Ln, Rock Hall, Md. Both locations are open to the public and are accessible by boat, bike, or car. To inquire about a future reservation, apply for a job, or to say welcome to John and team, please email dining@havenharbour.com.

Ark & Dove – a former restaurant – is now a premiere waterfront venue, also located at Haven Harbour South, available for private events. To discuss your next event with us, please contact events@havenharbour.com.

Please join us in welcoming John and the team to the Haven Harbour family!
