Cheap Anguilla Restaurants

Click here for our favorite cheap eat

Anguilla is a sensational, but expensive, paradise... definitely one of the most expensive of all the Caribbean islands. And Anguilla restaurants are no exception.

Most tourists only ever experience the expensive (and truly gourmet) Anguilla restaurants.

However, there are many alternatives, if you search a bit, and if you're just a touch adventurous.

Your rewards will be great eating... and money left over to spend on your children!

Right, dad? :-)

One of our favorite cheap-but-delicious Anguilla restaurants?

The Arawak Cafe! This cafe is part of the Arawak Beach Inn, which is run by a wonderful, fun English couple, who long ago escaped the grey skies of England. Believe it or not, as crazy it may sound, these "non-Italians" serve the tastiest pizza in the world! Yes, in the world!

Who would have thought that you would find the most mouth-watering pizza here, in Anguilla, by "Brits"? During our entire month, it's the only restaurant we visited twice!

Digging in at the Arawak
for the second time!

Even though the Arawak is pretty out-of-the way (tucked off in charming little Island Harbor), I would still count it as a "tourist Anguilla restaurant." Which makes the low price even more amazing!

Dessert Update: The best dessert on Anguilla... no finer "sweet-tooth" Anguilla dining. And we "give away Maria's secret"... almost.

Update 2008: The Arawak has competition! Click here to read about new pizza pie perfection...

To eat really cheaply, find the places that the Anguillians themselves eat at, such as...

Nico's

We discovered Nico's, a fantastic restaurant right near the airport, literally two hours before we left Anguilla. What a lucky find! They had the great sandwiches and hamburgers, as well as an interesting-looking goat stew (not that any of us was brave enough to try it!)

Too bad we didn't get a chance to make a return visit. Their breakfast is supposed to be excellent... and very reasonably priced! It's hard to find good, cheap breakfast in Anguilla, so we'll be trying it next time back. Since our first visit, I've had several excellent reports about Nico. The final verdict is "great and cheap." And the goat was highly mentioned twice.

Local Weekend BBQ's

Places like Rafe's and B&D's, as well as just about any BBQ that springs up in front of a house on the weekend, will be super. Just make sure there's a crowd there! B&D's, which is on the road east of Malliouhana, had absolutely delicious ribs -- we picked them clean.

Here's a great-tasting grill
on Sandy Ground.

Another local favorite is the Roti Hut...

Roti is a Caribbean food favorite... (Trinidad origin?).

But this was the only of all the Anguilla restaurants that specialize in roti.

It's delicious -- and you can't beat the price.

Ask for their conch roti, it's not on the menu, but it is out of this world. Now that I'm back in Montreal, I really feel like flying back to Anguilla, just to gulp down a fresh conch-filled roti!
