We stopped here for a couple of fruit cocktails. We was shown to a table and our drinks was brought out to us. We did not eat here so unable to comment on that but, drinks quite cheap and nice place to stop for a hour to watch boats in the bay.

stopped here by chance when taking the shops in swan street close by and was very pleased with the service. Nice spot by the marina and the food on the other table did look nice but we only had drinks as we already had a meal booked for later on. Nice place to spend a hour or so

Great spot for lunch, good tasty food, generous portions and great location right on the carenage. Eclectic interesting decor with lots of local art. Definitely worth a visit.

I prefer the seating inside as the boat dock can be busy during the day. The food is always perfect at this place and I try to eat here at least once a month. My favourite is the catch of the day but I have tried just about everything and I am yet to be disappointed.

I've been going to the Waterfront Café now on my short visits to Barbados for more than 10 years. The outside patio right on the waterfront where the sports fishing boats are tied up is always a great spot to unwind from business, shopping or sight-seeing. They can be very busy but the service is always friendly and the cold... More

This is the BEST place to go in Bridgetown for lunch. The ONLY place to go , really. Their friendly staff and great service only improves their delicious food. The setting is unique as the Parliament buildings set the stage and bustling Bridgetown is a stones throw away, yet you are right on the water. A must for visitors and... More

Great for a lunchtime snack with a Banks beer in hand. Watch the fishing boats come in and see some of the largest fish come in that you have ever seen.
