I walked up and down the beach to check it all out before getting in line to order a drink and food. You write your order on a piece of paper, pay, and grab a reserved table since you'll have food. My food was very good. The wrap was light and fresh and the fries were thin and crispy. This is a cool spot to check off your list but it's so crowded and so touristy. The gift shop is bigger than the actual bar area, which shows you how touristy this place is. It was packed with cruise ship people as well. Cool spot to do once but there are cooler and more local/remote spots in the BVI's.

The location and ambience are nice. The bar is located on the beach and right in the town square area. It had a super fun and airy vibe, not too kitschy, just somewhere that you want to hang and chill The food was all amazing and blew my expectation out of the water. The fish basket was my favorite dish of the night. It was well breaded and lightly friend and hit the spot, and the fried shrimp was a close second. Another great factor was how reasonably priced everything was and how I felt like I was getting my moneys worth. 10/10 experience

Hand down the best place to eat in the area. It's very small, but packs a punch with great customer service, cool drinks and outstanding food. Best to try and get in on their off hours to get a table without a wait. We literally ate here 4 times when we were on the island. An absolute MUST to order is their Bacon Jalapeno tater kegs! OMG-They're the bomb! Wings are decent and the burgers are juicy, flavorful and delicious! You really can't go wrong with ANYTHING on the menu. Everything is made fresh to order. The decor is island themed chaos in every fun way possible. If you happen to have to use the restroom it's located outside (customs ONLY) The key ring they'll hand you is a toilet lid! LOL You can ring in another way too! On your trip to the john, call in sick to work and stay on the island! You're enticed too by the retro phone sitting a top a keg outdoors as well. Great photo opts! Happy Hour is daily! The Love Shack offers particular deals with half-priced cocktails. We did Margs on Monday! Signature drinks include the 50oz Volcano Drink, Shark Attack, and souvenir cocktails like the Pirates Booty in a ceramic mugs. FYI- They may attach a certain creature to your glass also. Perfect vibe, casual dinning and great accommodations by the staff (for our big party) who were so friendly and professional. This is a must experience spot when visiting St Thomas.

Duffy's provides free parking which is a rarity and right at noon, the mall lot had tons of open spots. We both ordered burgers, one with the standard fries and one with onion rings. It took a good half hour for the food to be delivered but when we got it, it was hot and cooked to our specs. Fries were crispy. Burger was thick with a nice crisp, almost tasted like a smash burger but thicker. Service was good. It was the one spot where we didn't have to pay for a refill of soda. They were playing the best music! No waitlist or host so you have to linger and wait for someone to leave if you need a table and they are full. Great stop.

We also enjoyed our food. Conch fritters is a must try if you've never had them. Delicious! I had the blackened fish sandwich and I definitely made the right choice.

The drinks are a little pricier, but taking into account you're in the middle of a national park with not much around, the prices make sense. Drinks absolutely delicious - we loved the pina colada! They have plenty of seating, so you can either stay and enjoy or take your drinks back to the beach across the street. I'm not sure if they're related or not, but there is a little food shop little right next to it with the same available seating. As with the drinks, food there is a little pricier but take into account where you are. We ordered the mahi bites. Absolutely delicious. Fish was solid enough to pick up but flaked apart in your mouth. Would totally order again. Great place to stop when you're enjoying the beach at Maho Bay.

This place is the hub for anything fun you plan to do in Maho bay: ample rentals to kayak, paddle board, snorkel, chair rentals for the beach front. Great strong drinks and a fun chill vibe to chillax, play corn hole, kick back and people watch, or stare at the stunning turquoise wonder that is Maho Bay. Very highly recommended.

In the evening, they give away our reservation at the club (all run by the same people). We spoke to the manager - who treated us with a very laisser faire attitude and seemed to not care at all. Then we waited another hour for our appetizers, which could probably not even feed a toddler (but at least they brought alcohol in a timely manner in the mean time). The food in general was good, but unfortunately we ended up sitting there for 3,5 hours waiting for something that could have been done in 1hour. The restaurant is clearly understaffed and poorly managed and does not seem to care about its customers since it's the only restaurant in the bay. Conclusion: make sure your fridge is filled for this stop on your trip.
