Restaurants

English Harbour boasts a huge selection of restaurants and bars, many of which are within walking distance…. these are just some of our favorites…do remember to book early.

Catherine’s Cafe, Pigeon Beach, English Harbour

Just a short stroll down the lane, on Pigeon Beach, Catherine’s Café epitomizes beach café life, with a live band on Saturday lunchtimes. This stunning restaurant is one of our favourites; location, amazing, friendly staff and delicious food. It’s also an idyllic location for a wedding.

Bumpkins Beach Bar, Pigeon Beach, English Harbour

Locally-run and very chilled Bumpkins Beach Bar offers light lunches – and the best Pina Coladas on the island!

Colibri, Dockyard Drive, English Harbour

This charming French/Creole garden restaurant offers some of the very best food on the island – definitely worth pre-booking and one of our firm favourites. Very pretty outdoor area for pre-dinner craft cocktails and balmy outdoor dinners.

Admiral’s Inn and Boom Restaurant, Nelson’s Dockyard, English Harbour

This iconic building set within Nelson’s Dockyard, is home to both Pillars Restaurant and Boom (just across the water) – for relaxed, poolside dining. Or pop into Admiral’s Inn for one of barman Reggie’s “Old Fashioneds”.

Club Sushi, English Harbour

Just a short stroll down the lane from Bluff House, this relaxed bar and restaurant is very much our “local” – great food, charming staff. Book into their Quiz Night, every Wednesday.

Marinaside, English Harbour

Just a stroll down the lane and you will find Marinaside – with UP Bar (great DJ), Marinaside restaurant (great pizzas), Skullduggery café for breakfasts and an amazing juice bar – all with staggering views over Falmouth Harbour.

South Point – Maia Restaurant, English Harbour

Just down the lane from Bluff House is South Point, hosting Maia Restaurant – fine dining overlooking the Superyachts.

Loose Cannon, Galleon Beach, English Harbour

We love Loose Cannon for its’ relaxing vibe, deliciously fresh food and charming staff. The sunsets are pretty impressive too..

Lemongrass, Dockyard Drive, English Harbour

Excellent Thai food in a very relaxed setting.

Flatties Flame Grill, Dockyard Drive, English Harbour

Really tasty South African and Portuguese dishes. We order a whole chicken and ask for a doggy bag – tomorrow’s lunch sorted!

Indian Summer, Dockyard Drive, English Harbour

Truly some of the best and freshest Indian food that we have ever eaten – and they do takeaways too.

Roti Sue, Dockyard Drive, English Harbour

This unassuming café offers the best in local food – their rotis (a bit like a Cornish Pasty)) are absolutely delicious – we order takeaways and eat them back at home.

You and Me Café, Dockyard Drive, English Harbour

Utterly charming, waterside and the very best coffee

Further Afield…..

The Reef, Mill Reef

This may be a bit of a drive (we can always organize a driver) but it’s definitely worth it for the sense of exclusivity and outstanding food. Memories are made here.

The Hut @ Little Jumby

Just off Jumby Bay, this sister restaurant to The Hut on The Isle of Wight has opened relatively recently. You will be blown away by the super-efficient staff, setting and food. Make your visit even more special by booking one of their beach cabanas and spend the whole day there.

Casa Roots

Chef Sylvain offers exceptional food – head over for lunch and spend the afternoon on Dickinson beach.

NOBU - Barbuda

If you’re a NOBU fan you will revel in their most recent opening on the island of Barbuda…

Cecelia’s Highpoint Cafe

Sensational sea-side setting, this boutique restaurant offers sensational food – do try their gravadlax. About 40 mins away, opposite Jumby Bay’s dock.

Beach Bum Bar & Café, Half Moon Bay, Freetown

Very chilled beach bar and café – do pre-book – Caribbean fish and burgers and their own special rum punch.
