RSR Dillon's Seafood Restaurant

Milford Road, Crown Point

Tel: 639-8765

Once an institution, Dillons reputation has slipped in recent years. However, management has been taken over by the owner's daughter and reports are very encouraging. Sadly, we didn't have the opportunity to try it during our 2008 trip. However, from what we hear, it could well be worth a visit. Open Monday to Friday from 6pm.

RSR Kariwak Restaurant

Store Bay Local Road, Crown Point

Tel: 639-8442

Most reports are good, but I've haven't found it the most welcoming of places. They are justifiably proud of their home-grown spices and herbs. Open every day from 7:15am for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

RSR Tamaras Restaurant

Coco Reef Resort, Crown Point

Tel: 639-8571

Good food. Reasonably romantic setting, if you don't mind a "large" restaurant setting. Expensive - as all hotel restaurants tend to be (they have to add additional resort taxes).

Next door to Dillon's Restaurant and under the same family's ownership. Previously just a day-time snack bar, but revamped in mid-2004 and now open for both lunch and dinner. Inexpensive.

RSR Cafe Iguana

Store Bay Local Road, C.Point

Tel: 631-8205

Although we had never criticised Cafe Iguana or had any communication with owner Kenneth Briscombe, we have received several insulting, rascist, threatening emails from him and from IP addresses associated with his computer. A total mystery, but I gather we are not alone. The totally genuine public RSR speaks for itself.

RSR Colours Restaurant & Bar

Pigeon Point Junction, C/Point

RSR Fortune Chinese Restaurant

Main Road, Bon Accord

I was highly amused by a comment in an online guide, some years back. It said: "If you want to eat good Chinese food in Tobago, go to Trinidad". I confess I've never felt tempted to try this take-away or had decent Chinese food anywhere in Tobago. Open Mon-Sat 11am-11pm.

Tel: 475-6344

The Garden Café is located in Milford Road, opposite the RBC Royal Bank compound. Open every day for breakfast and dinner. Very friendly service and a limited, but interesting and reasonably-priced menu. No licence, but bring your own beer or wine. Well worth trying.

RSR House of Pancakes

Milford Road, Bon Accord

Open for breakfast from 7am to 12:30pm. Used to be a Tobago institution but sadly standards have dropped badly in recent years. Service appears to be running for the accoldade of slowest on Tobago. Relocated to the rear of Colours Restaurant (opposite entrance to Pigeon Point Road) in 2009.

RSR The Shade

Bon Accord

Bar, restaurant and night club in Bon Accord. A very "happening" place that has rapidly become the main "pick-up joint" on the island. Sadly, its reputation couldn't be worse and the place has seen murder, muggings and an arson attack. See our Nightlife article for more details. We would be totally irresponsible to recommend this place to visitors. Avoid, particularly after 11pm on a Friday evening.

RSR Tristar Restaurant

Airport Terminal, C/Point Airport

A snack bar/cafe located in the terminal building, directly opposite the arrivals/departures area. It may not be the most romantic of venues, but prices are reasonable and quality decent although some staff could do with some serious customer service training.

Tristar Restaurant

Prices: Average — Quality: Average — Ambience: Very Little — Open: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner — International   

RSR Vie de France

Adjacent to Airport, Crown Point

A long-held reputation for the slowest service on Tobago. Despite that, was once an ideal spot to wait for flights, etc. However, has gone seriously down hill in the last couple of years. The excellent cakes and pastries have been replaced by stale donuts and the cafe looks as if it hasn't been cleaned in months. We've totally crossed it off our list.

Pigeon Point Junction, C.Point

Occupies premises previously owned by Triple B-Burger. Buffet-style BBQ. Prices very moderate. Mainly take away, but there are three nice tables and chairs outside. Quality was good when they opened, but recent (2005) reports have been very dissapointing.
