The Grand Bahama dining scene stretches well beyond traditional Bahamian cuisine.

The Grand Bahama dining scene stretches well beyond traditional Bahamian cuisine. The resorts and shopping centers have eateries that serve up everything from West Indian rotis to fine Continental and creative Pacific Rim specialties. For a true Bahamian dining experience, look for restaurants named after the owner or cook—such as Billy Joe's, Geneva's, or Mary Ann's.
A native fish fry takes place every Wednesday evening at Smith's Point, east of Port Lucaya (taxi drivers know the way). Here you can sample fresh fish, sweet-potato bread, conch salad, and all the fixings cooked outdoors at the beach. It's a great opportunity to meet local residents and taste real Bahamian cuisine—and there's no better place than seaside under the pines and palms.
A gratuity or "service charge" (15%) is often added to the bill automatically; be sure to check your total before adding an additional tip.
Offering French cuisine with a strong Bahamian influence, Merport Bistro is the spot in downtown Freeport for the local business crowd. Their weekly specials are worth checking out, and although the menu changes constantly, there is something for everyone, from wraps and sandwiches and a variety of soups, to seafood or chicken vol-au-vent, juicy stacked burgers or hearty steaks. There's not much else for the tourist crowd in the area, but it's definitely worth the drive into town.
The Stoned Crab is a place to see and be seen. Open glass walls all around provide every seat with a view of the ocean off Taino Beach, and vaulted white wooden ceilings that rise into the spectacular dual triangular peaked roof make it feel larger than it is. They serve delicious options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The menu is an eclectic mix with culinary hints from around the world. Nutella crepes, a full English breakfast, or Mississippi-style shrimp-and-grits get the day started, and later you can nosh on Thai chicken curry, rack of lamb, or stone crab legs (in season). At lunch, you can dine inside or grab one of the luxurious lounge chairs on the beach and have your food and drinks served right there.
Enjoy a great cup of coffee or specialty boba tea any time of day or night at this quaint café immediately adjacent to Zorba's Greek Restaurant. Try fresh-baked croissants, chocolate eclairs, and tiramisu, as well as a variety of other sweet and savory treats. An homage to the owner's Greek roots, they serve specialties like baklava and a selection of Greek coffees. There's a small bar behind the pastry counter. Cocktails are available all day.
Besides Greek favorites, this longtime Port Lucaya restaurant serves popular Bahamian dishes. Join the port's yacht-in clientele, shoppers, and locals for breakfast, lunch, or dinner on the white-and-blue-trimmed sidewalk porch. Specialties include gyros, moussaka, Greek salad, pizza, conch fritters, fried snapper, and roasted leg of lamb. Dishes are reasonably priced, and the service is consistently friendly and efficient.
Tucked in at the end of a Port Lucaya row, this spot serves up fresh, flavorful, and unique cuisine that offers a break from the standard fried fare found elsewhere. Choose a seat indoors or on the small porch for a delicious breakfast, lunch, or dinner or come for the all-day brunch on weekends. They offer a selection of bowls and wraps, salads, and more substantial meals—try the chef's curry which you can order meat-free or with chicken, fish, or shrimp. This is one of the few local spots where special dietary needs and restrictions can be accommodated with tasty options.
This relaxing outdoor poolside bar and grill at UNEXSO is great for lunch and weekend brunch, with delicious and creative menu items. Kids and adults alike can splash in the pool (which has underwater windows to the marina, so bring goggles) while adults sip spicy Bloody Marys and tropical drinks. This is a popular evening spot on weekends for relaxing and dancing as local bands are often invited to play.
