Best Mid-Priced Anguilla Restaurants
On a sad September day in 2005,
our #1 Anguilla restaurant for burgers said "Au Revoir".
Yes, that tragic day did come... Le Bar,
first discovered years before, closed up shop.
Tears were shed as we thought of all the good memories affectionately.
But we refused to wallow in our own misery for too long.
The hunt for the next best Anguilla burger was on!
But which Anguilla restaurants to try?
We searched high, we searched low. We surveyed people living on Anguilla. The recurring advice?
"Try Ferry Boat Inn. Theirs is unbeatable."
Maybe. But could they come close to Didier's fine, herb-stuffed, 12-ounce burger?
Being professionals on a critical mission, we couldn't get sentimental. Off we went!
We made our way down to Blowing Point village, past the colorful, Caribbean school, past the local grocery shop,
and took a right just before reaching Anguilla Ferry, down Cul-De-Sac.
Soon we saw the rustic sign...
The Ferry Boat Inn
Car doors slammed behind us, as we gazed out at the picturesque little restaurant perched right on Blowing Point beach.
Visually, this place was already ahead of the game.
Ten out of ten for location!
We took a seat right by the edge of the deck, enjoying the trades and the sun.
We waited for our friend Claire Devener to join us.
We pretended to examine the menu. But who were we kidding?
We were not here for the dolphin sandwich.
Our stomachs were not craving the snapper salad, as tasty as it sounded.
We were on a mission. Burgers!
As our waitress brought us two diet Cokes, a Carib and a rum punch (guess who!), Claire made her entrance.
"Make that two rum punches," she announced.
"Claire!"
Would she miss out on the potential-next-best-burger on Anguilla? Never!
She skipped the menu-scan, and we all cut straight to ordering 5 big, juicy burgers.
We chat and drank and chat and drank.
And then, suddenly, the moment of truth had arrived...
Five sensational-looking hamburgers lay before us.
The Ferry Boat Burger
The moment my teeth sank into the burger, I knew. My sister knew. My Mom knew. My Dad knew.
This was our new #1 burger in Anguilla.
It was charbroiled to perfection, with lettuce, tomatoes and onion, all on a fluffy, white bun.
You want bacon? They'll put it on there! Just ask.
All served up with tasty fries, something we always missed at Le Bar.
Le Bar will always hold a special place in my heart. It's not every day
you find a burger seasoned by a french cook with fine herbs.
The Ferry Boat Inn, though, is definitely our new burger champ among Anguilla restaurants.
The Ferry Boat Inn is just one of many excellent, mid-priced Anguilla restaurants.
Here are several more of our favorites in this price bracket...
E's Oven
Searching for inexpensive Caribbean dining? Like more expensive local restaurants such as Koal Keel and
Oliver's, E's Oven has mouth-watering food, but for half the price.
