The best dining<br />

spots & hangouts<br />

My absolute favourite restaurant on the<br />

island is Seahorse Inn, Restaurant & Bar.<br />

The food there is impeccable and consistent.<br />

Dinner there is always a treat because you get<br />

to dine in the beautiful, rustic, well-appointed<br />

open-air dining area and listen to the waves<br />

crashing nearby. My favourite meal on the<br />

menu is the lamb (yum!) and I’m obsessed<br />

with their pineapple cheesecake.<br />

My favourite bar on the island is<br />

Glasgow Bar in Parlatuvier. Bago Bar on<br />

the drive to Pigeon Point, as well as Renmar’s<br />

inside Pigeon Point Heritage Park,<br />

are great options. Waves at Grafton has<br />

a great location and the perfect beach<br />

vibe. If I’m going for a more refined experience,<br />

I head to Time to Wine in Shirvan<br />

Plaza; the decor is rustic-meets-trendy<br />

and you can enjoy a glass/bottle of wine<br />

and cheese platter all for a great price.<br />

Other favourite spots of mine<br />

are: The Fish Pot in Black Rock, where<br />

you get delicious seafood and the best<br />

coconut cream cheesecake I’ve ever<br />

tasted; Jemma’s Treehouse Restaurant in<br />

Speyside where you can get a delicious<br />

spread of local dishes, including their<br />

amazing breadfruit pie; Traditions Bar at<br />

Pigeon Point where I’ve eaten the best<br />

curry and paratha on the island (seriously);<br />

Suckhole in Charlotteville; and<br />

Sunshine Café in Bloody Bay — on Sundays<br />

she offers up a Sunday spread that<br />

includes some of the best curried shrimp<br />

I’ve ever tasted!<br />
