  • Paolo's Churrasco Barbados
    Everyone loves the idea of beef skewers on tap and Paolo doesn’t fail to deliver on quantity; you definitely walk out rolling. If you’re a big beef-fan you might not find that the meat is for you but if you come anywhere near a Saturday night you’ll find yourself dancing [...]
  • Brownes Beach Barbados
    On the South Coast you will find a mixture of wavy beaches and placid beaches. Brownes beach is one of the least wavy spots with a regular turn of locals – in fact more locals than any other beach. Come on the weekend and you will be privy to a gospel choir opening [...]
  • Cafe Sol Barbados
    For a moment forget that we’re talking about Mexican food. If Cafe Sol were an airport hub it would be the busiest airport hub in the world. They have been so ubiquitously associated with nights out that it almost feels illegal to through the Gap and miss it. At the [...]
  • Chicken Rita's
    Have no illusions, Rita devised the recipe for the most ridiculous chicken on Earth and no one knows how she did it. There is no copying Chicken Rita and we have come to one final guess: the chicken is stuffed and roasted with herbs before then being deep fried. So to [...]
  • The Good Life Barbados
    This is one of the only vegan restaurant on the island… Not vegetarian, vegan. No feta in that salad! But they do serve the staple alcohols so all is not lost. In fact they have one of the best smoothies in Barbados and they do a pretty good Sunday brunch too. Their salads are [...]

Lemon Arbour

Let’s get this out of the way now. It’s actually called The Village (and it’s in Lemon Arbour) but everyone calls it Lemon Arbour so that’s exactly what we’re going to do here. The food is insane. […]

Sea Cat Barbados

Sea Cat

If you haven’t been to Sea Cat then you’ve probably heard that it’s a rum shop deluxe, and that’s exactly what it is. The fish is great and the menu is broken down so easily. Depending […]

Marco Polo

Marco Polo is a rum shop run by a hands-on English couple who have brought the best of British to the best of Bajan. All of the Bajan staples are on the menu and they’re a lot […]

Rum Shops

Bombas

Carizma on the Hill

❤❤❤🖤🖤 | $$$$$ Carizma on the Hill is a hidden gem with a wonderfully consistent menu and service to boot. It’s in Sugar Hill which can be intimidating but, truth be told, it’s very welcoming and […]

Spago Barbados
Food & Drink

Spago

There aren’t many Italian restaurants on this rock and between them it’s hard to find the best pizza. Spago certainly has great pizza but given the choice, go for the pasta. We like to compare Carbonaras […]

Lunch at Cin Cin

Work lunches are getting better in Barbados and, when you realise what Cin Cin is serving, $89 never felt so useful. What’s the biggest problem with work lunches? It’s that we get back from a heavy lunch […]

Pizza at Drift

Every Friday and Saturday, Gianluca will be cooking up pizzas in his portable oven at Drift. Good question. Gianluca is the guy who was running the kitchen at Timothy Oulton so if you were wondering what happened […]
