SandBar is a one of a kind spot, an Anguilla restaurant that follows a simple recipe for success.
The key ingredients?
#1) Great eating with original concept
#2) Beach-side setting
#3) Affordable
Born out of a passion for Anguilla's sandy beaches, food, and enjoying both with the people you love, SandBar was an instant hit.
It's busy even on the quietest of nights.
What's the story?
Denise Carr is a former Executive Chef at CuisinArt, having worked at many prestigious locations around the world. She decided to leave the Anguilla resort restaurant scene behind and focus on owning her efforts.
With her husband Joash Proctor, they have applied Denise's culinary expertise to an Anguilla restaurant vision all their own...
A casual, low-cost seaside setting where friends and family can hang out, nibbling on "tasty tapas" and sipping on "cool cocktails." This appetizer-only concept is an "Anguilla first."
SandBar
At a reasonable price point, SandBar has become popular with tourists and locals alike.
Right on Sandy Ground beach, SandBar is a trendy beach bar, exuding a cool elegance of beach charm.
Opening at 2:00 PM, you can enjoy a tranquil afternoon seaside or evening, munching Denise's creations till well past sun-down. My recommendation? Catch the final ray of the day's sun while having an early dinner. Sandy Ground's sunset are so special.
Inside SandBar
SandBar is one of our favorite casual after-dark eateries.
The concept is straightforward, the variety fun: We order as many small plates as our stomachs will allow.
(By the end of the meal, the table virtually disppears, hidden by all of our empty plates!)
Our favorites?
Tuna tartar with cucumber, pork wontons, panko crusted shrimp, melted brie brioche with sweet local tomato salad, and minted meat balls with yogurt and cucumber sauce.
My personal favorite? Saltfish and creamy potatoes with sweet spring onions.
Dad Chowing Down on Saltfish and Creamy Potatoes with Sweet Spring Onions
I always embarrass myself (and the rest of our family) when we order the saltfish and creamy potatoes. Everyone cringes as the dish dwindles. They know my next move...
Licking the bowl in search of the final taste of saltfish and mashed potato!
Denise's culinary talents are remarkable. She honed her tapas skills where the tapas were well made at CuisinArt. Making SandBar into a tapas-only restaurant was a brilliant stroke. Eating a variety of small, original dishes at a great price is a winning concept.
Joash is the warmest, most inviting host. He remembers everybody and greets them by name, always with a big smile.
Together, Joash and Denise are a remarkable team.
SandBar is no hidden secret as a result of its strong word of mouth.
That is the drawback. ;-)
It is high on everybody's dining list. You might have to wait for a table.
SandBar is closed Mondays. They start serving tapas and drinks at 2:00 pm.
