Hey everyone quick question.
I am flying out on Tuesday, August 9th. Have to take the 7:30am Road Town to Charlotte Amalie ferry, but my flight from STT on is not until 2:35pm.
Anybody got good recommendations for a breakfast spot walking distance from Charlotte Amalie ferry terminal other than Petite Pump and French Deli?

Gladys' Cafe and Bumpa's are walkable.Tickles at Crown Bay is good too, but requires a drive or a long walk.

Agree..had good breakfasts at Bumpa's...but nice to be on the beach at Emerald Beach and close to the airrport...less than a mile walk if you dont have heavy bags or short cab ride..I also find the staff at The Emerald Beach very welcoming..one waitress was born and raised on VG.

I would just take the short walk over to Gladys' . They are in a bigger space now so no worries getting a table. Food is really good and they are always welcoming!

FYI. The short cab ride cost 2 of us $25 with bags last November. It was literally under 2 minutes. lol

We have always liked the Green House while waiting for the ferry. About a 10 minute walk down the waterfront.

G I was going to suggest them because I have always enjoyed the food and the view, but I didn't mention them since they only open at 11am - figured the timing with their schedule didn't work out. Now if they offered breakfast..... Keep Smiling!!!

Gladys' - you cross the street and turn right (east). 5600 Royal Dane Mall, St. Thomas, Virgin Islands 00802, the second left after the Greenhouse. Bumpa's is a bit further.

A side note on this from St Thomas before I head to the aiport. I had another great dinner last night at The French Quarter Bistro in Charlotte Amalie's Frenchtown and a great Margarita at The Greenhouse . Although I couldnt get a room there had a great afternoon at The Emerald Beach with drinks courtesy of Tyler.
