Food Scene

Excellent host, rustic setting, fresh fish. They do not accept credit cards here. Seating is limited and it’s a small place. It’s VERY popular so reservations are definitely recommended. Also if you do not eat seafood...this is not for you, there is nothing else on the menu.

The Larder is a popular place for lunch, but is open all day for breakfast, and dinner as well. Eat in or take out. You can order anything from pizza and burgers, to lamb and lobster....but I go for the sushi! Excellent with a wide selection. They also have nice desserts. :0)

Excellent all day breakfast (great place to sample an “Antiguan” breakfast), but should not be overlooked for lunch and dinner. Stunning views of the sea. There is a pool and sun lounging area too. This location is tried and true.

Be sure to check out their SEAFOOD FRIDAY event. This is an outdoor event, there is covered seating so don't worry if it rains. Get there early (6:00pm) it has become quite popular with both local and visiting patrons. Its an amazing experience during a full moon night if you are lucky enough to be on the island for one.

This is a great under the radar spot. More and more people are discovering how amazing this place really is. Hosts Avery and his wife “Tippy” have made it so special. I highly recommend the snapper it is off the chain. This is definitely “slow” food, but the setting is so stunning you won’t notice the wait time. It’s caribbean casual at its finest.

Boom is located in the vicinity of the historic Lord Nelson’s dockyard, this recent addition is a stunning restoration of the gunpowder storage buildings now housing a boutique hotel, spa, gallery and restaurant. Tastefully done in a beautiful setting of stone work and tropical gardens, you can relax by the pool enjoy lunch and maybe even stay long enough for a sundowner looking out over the pillars of the Admirals Inn.

Light and casual dining is the order of the day at this fun little restaurant. Great with friends or not. Taste everything! The food is French, the staff are as friendly and welcoming as the space itself. I highly recommend Ti Lo Lo

Make a reservation, it can get busy. Like many of my other recommendations, this is also a French/creole restaurant. With indoor and outdoor dining options you can’t go wrong. The setting at night outside is magical. The food is very good, and the cocktails are excellent. It’s very social with lots of spots to sit n sip.

French dining on a beautiful beach. Catherine's is expensive and very busy, so make reservations if you are planning on having lunch or dinner. The ambiance is second to none.

One of the best experiences you can have while visiting. If you like cooking different foods, this is one not to miss. Read the reviews on Trip advisor. I suggest the curry class.

This is the islands largest and most diverse supermarket. They have two locations, the main one being the Epicurean drive outlet. You are sure to find everything you need and more, most if not all the brands you are familiar with. Most food is imported weekly so Friday /Saturday is when you will find the widest selection of items, by Monday things can look a little lacking. They take USD and credit cards along side our local currency.

Arts & Culture

Its not actually a museum but a working georgian dockyard. The only one in the Caribbean. There is a museum, and several original naval buildings. There is also a bakery, shops, restaurants, and the small Admirals in Hotel as well.
