Exterior of the Faithful Bride.

"Let me guess. Ale, ale, ale and…oh, probably another ale?"
Arabella Smith[src]

The Faithful Bride[1][2] was a tavern in Tortuga.

The Faithful Bride appeared, from the outside, to be little more than an oversized shack, and was constructed from the timbers of wrecked boats. It was said that the tavern smelled of tar, salt, seaweed and fish. The roof was noticably too weak to keep rain from dripping inside the tavern.[3] The sign above the door was a politically-incorrect painting of a smiling bride holding a bouquet in her manacled hands.[1]

History

"I reckon we have enough old salts here to crew every ship in Port Royal."
Arabella Smith's thoughts on the Faithful Bride's patrons[src]

Prior to the quest for the Sword of Cortés, Arabella worked as a barmaid in the Faithful Bride, owned at the time by her father. Jack Sparrow started a brawl in the tavern, leading to Arabella joining his misfit crew.[3]

Many years later, Sparrow brought William Turner to the tavern while he met with Joshamee Gibbs to procure a crew for the journey to Isla de Muerta.[4] Around a year later, Sparrow and the crew of the Black Pearl returned, attempting to recruit sailors as souls to pay off Davy Jones, and settle Sparrow's debt. The four men who signed up were blighted with all manner of ailments and would hardly have made worthy crew members under normal circumstances.[5]

The arrival of James Norrington, who threatened Jack with a pistol, caused a full-scale bar brawl, ending with Norrington being ejected from the tavern and thrown in with the pigs. A pirate band was known to play in the tavern, and continued their jigs even during the fight.[5]
