— — — — Local/Creole RSR Cuffie River Nature Retreat Runnemede Tel: 660-0505 The best Caribbean cuisine that I have ever tasted. Reservations are required for dinner and advisable for lunch. High tea and refreshments available. We strongly recommend booking a morning nature tour (all days except Saturday) with the hotel, followed by a leisurely lunch. Frankly, I can't think of a nicer day out.
— — — — Local/Creole RSR Sandcastles Main Road, Castara Tel: 635-0933 Very expensive and reports indicate that the excellent quality exhibited in the early years has sadly not been maintained. However, Sandcastles offers the only relief from the repetitive Creole cuisine available elsewhere in the area. Reservation only - and only open if/when reservations have been received.
— — — — Local/International RSR Boat House Restaurant Depot Road, Little Bay, Castara Tel: 660-7354 Wednesday night is music night. $TT200 per person for decent steel pan and drums, but mediocre food. Popular with visitors who are prepared to pay a high price for the only half-decent regular entertainment in the village. Wake up Castara!
— — — — Local/International RSR Clay Kitchen Castara Bay Road No 2 After extensive refurbishment, the Clay Kitchen re-opened for dinners in late February 2010. We know from experience that Rebecca's catering can easily match the only other decent local cook in the village and her menus can bea a little more varied. Anybody who can persuade me that Crab and Dumplings is worth trying has got to be good! Definitely one to watch.
— — — — Local/International RSR Coffee Shop (Cheno's) Main Road, Castara The Coffee Shop, or Cheno's as it is more commonly known, has got off to a roaring start and is rapidly becoming THE place for visitors to enjoy breakfast each morning. They are open throughout the day and have recently started offering evening meals. The cuisine is decent but best of all, you get a friendly smile and the friendliest welcome in a village not known for smiling staff. Well done, Chino!
— — — — Local/Creole RSR D'Almond Tree (Vera's) Castara Beach Although our experience has always been negative, we try Vera's each year because some reports are good. We shan't try again though. Poor cuisine compounded by the owners surly rudeness. A flaky broken roti beside a pile of tasteless cold mush caused us to settle the bill and seek sustenance elsewhere during our 2008 trip. Pity - the friendly new waitress gave hope that things were improving.
— — — — Local/Creole RSR Eula's Restaurant Englishman's Bay An unauthorised shack (upper floor added since photo taken) built on THA land at Englishman's Bay and operating despite eviction notices. No running water or drainage. Eat at your own risk! WARNING: The family running this cafe have numerous criminal convictions and are alleged to be responsible for most of the crime against tourists in the Castara area. Befriend and berobbed! Avoid like the plague!.
— — Local/Creole RSR Golden Flower Main Road, Moriah Tel: 660-0568 Golden Flower is a small local restaurant located beside the main road in Moriah village.
— — — — Local/Creole RSR L & H Sunset Castara Bay Road, Castara Located above the Grocery shop, next to the Fishing Cooperative. Upstairs dining patio. One visitor describes it as offering the best basic menu in Castara at the best basic price. Visitors may rightly find the take-it-or-leave-it attitude off-putting and feel more inclined to dine somewhere more hospitable (not easy in Castara).
— — — — Local/Creole RSR Marguarite's Local Cuisine Main Road, Castara Located next to the school at the start of the village centre. Very good food. Fish & Chips and excellent home-baked pizza. Take-away service, with delivery. No alcohol licence, but you can take your own beer and wine, but not spirits. Visitors may find the local manner initially off-putting, but keep at it - Maurgarite's is as good as it gets in Castara.
— — — — Local/Creole RSR Riverside Restaurant Parlatuvier Decent, but pricey, local food. Now serves beer. One correspondent considered it "the best local food on the island". We've only dined their once and weren't overwhelmed, but the service was friendly - something of a bonus in the Castara/North Coast area. [Apr 10: The restaurant has been sold. The building has been newly painted, but no opening date currently set.]
— — — Local/Creole RSR Sunshine Restaurant Bloody Bay Described by one visitor as "delicious, hot and very reasonable". We enjoyed a fabulous Crayfish dinner there in 2007 - as expensive as lobster, but just as good. Service was friendly and welcoming.
