Andros, Bimini, and the Berry Islands Restaurants

Dining options range widely between haute cuisine and "down-home" tasty local specialties. For casual sophistication, opt for Kamalame Cay on Andros, Carriearl Restaurant on Great Harbour Cay, and Sabor at Resorts World Bimini. Most others serve Bahamian fare—fresh fish and lobster, grilled chicken, cracked (deep-fried) conch, and BBQ or fried pork with native sides (coleslaw, peas ’n' rice, and mac ‘n’ cheese). Ask your hotel in advance what place is open when; for dinner, most restaurants require a booking. In the hotter, rainy season, it’s best to dine in the cool indoors—away from flies and biting bugs. Colorful roadside bars and conch stands are a treat—and a cool way to mingle with the locals.

  • 1. Kamalame Cay

    $$

    If you're not a guest at Kamalame Cay's private island resort, you might have to travel miles to enjoy this casual but luxurious dining experience, which is every bit worthwhile. Set on one of The Bahamas' most beautiful beaches, Kamalame draws guests to cocktails at the poolside Tiki Bar, then to The Great House to enjoy Andros's top cuisine. Choose from a small, set menu that varies nightly, with main courses ranging from imported viands and fowl to creatively prepared fresh local seafood. Later, sip gently aged postprandial spirits on the terrace or the beach. Nestled in a grove of palms and kamalame trees, dinner at Kamalame could be your vacation's romantic highlight.

  • 3. Coolie Mae's Sunset Restaurant

    $$

    In the island food category, expats, locals, and visitors rate Mae's food as true-true excellent. Her bright sign makes the casual 60-seat restaurant, on Bullock's Harbour's central seafront, easy to find. A couple of outside tables give heightened views of a sleepy anchorage, the ocean, and gorgeous sunsets. Midday, try the conch salad, pan-fried grouper, or a tasty burger. Broiled lobster, steaks, pork chops, and fried conch along with peas-and-rice and macaroni and cheese are dinner specialties. The menu changes daily, but the world-famous guava duff is always available for dessert. Place your order in advance or call a day ahead for a reservation. While you're at it, order a loaf of their freshly baked plain, white coconut, sweet coconut, raisin, cinnamon, banana, or wheat bread.
