Planning our spring vacation......what are the go to lunch destinations? Love the lolos in Grande Case, Chez Yvette, and Rosemary's. Suggestions?

You'll have 10,000 suggestions before spring. 😅😉

You're going to love love love this place The food, the service and the view is to die for, lovely people that own it to! Not cheap, but not over the top either! Indigo beach Restaurant! You'll thank me for this one!! https://www.facebook.com/indigobeachrestaurant (photo of our scrapbook page)

Lunch for us is always at whatever beach we're on that day.

Friar's Bay Beach Café!!!

So many incredible choices but I will absolutely agree on Friars Bay Beach Club. One of our favorite places to eat across the island.
Does anyone know if the road into the restaurant itself has been improved at all? 🙂🙂🙂

Rancho del Sol. Great food. friendly service and beautiful view.

A partial list of our must go lunch places:

Caribbean Blend--excellent grilled grouper and conch.

The place next door on the right facing the water--excellent grouper and conch in a wine/garlic sauce. Forgot the name

Ital's Freedom Fighters

Le Champagne

Be Kool

Tropicana

Bistro Nu

Le Taitu--the French plats

Nice

Villa Royale

And, my favorite dish is Mussels, ideally Bouchots, at Sunset Cafe, on a warm, sunny day, accompanied by a bottle of Sav. Blanc.

Scubaman, or before the end of today! Lol. Orange fever, le taitu, la main a la pate

Like Georgia, whatever restaurant is at the beach of the day. My favorites, not necessarily in order, are: Anse Marcel, Coco Beach, Friar's Bay, several options on Grand Case beach. However, I don't go to the beach every day so places on my list this trip include:

Cool Heure - excellent French food in a charming little shack on the corner where you turn in to take the back way to Friar's Bay
Indigo Beach Restaurant
Tropicana
Bistro Nu
Be Kool

Orange Fever on Orient Beach is a must do in my book.

Love Orange Fever as well. May be heading that way today in fact.

Also on Friar's Bay is 978 Lounge and Sanctorum. Location is the former Kali's. The couple also run brunches and lunch around the pool at their villa. Very nice production and they have Jazz nights (Linda!)

Leona--hope your visit is going well so far, considering how much DRAMA you had, just getting there!

Lol! The drama for the past two years has been ridiculous. Last year, my hubby's COVID test was dated incorrectly by the lab, and we had to scramble to get that fixed for EHAS. This year the #$*! airlines.

Thanks, Carol. BTW, ran into Louise and David at the Maho Market yesterday afternoon. We were on the same plane from JFK. We SHOULD also be at BSV, but we know how that turned out.

Another neat place for lunch (or sunset) is Sandbar.

Leona, go early! We stopped by on a Sunday a couple of weeks ago. Half of the places on the south end were closed and the rest were packed!

Leona--glad it worked out eventually. Hope David and Louise will chime in here at some point!

Thanks for the heads up, Elaine. We hadn't considered that. So, we got really lazy and didn't venture too far for lunch. Went to Dany's. lol Several rum punches, grilled red snapper, and bbq chicken with salads. Yummy, and hit the spot.
