The Abacos Restaurants

Fish, conch, land crabs, and rock lobster—called crawfish by the locals—have long been the bedrock of local cuisine. Although a few menus, mostly in upscale resorts, feature dishes with international influences, most restaurants in the Abacos still serve simple Bahamian fare, with a few nods to American tastes. There are some fancier restaurants in Marsh Harbour, Treasure Cay, and Hope Town, but most restaurants are relaxed about attire and reasonably priced. Some offer live music, and shape the nightlife scene on weekends.

  • 1. Ballyhoo Bar & Grill

    $$$

    This casual eatery on the water in the Bluff House Marina offers tasty meals for breakfast and dinner. Sitting under an umbrella on the deck is the best way to enjoy the view of the sailboat-filled harbor, but you can also eat in the air-conditioned pub-style dining room. Menu choices range from standard Bahamian (conch fritters and burgers) to new American (spinach stuffed Abaco Big Bird chicken breast, salads with blue cheese and roasted vegetables). You can also enjoy a rum drink from the bar while catching some rays at the pool.

  • 2. Firefly Bar & Grill

    Whether you pull in by golf cart or tie up by boat, it's worth the trip to this popular restaurant and bar. Seafood is their specialty, and the extensive menu makes choosing just one dish a challenge. Owned by the developers of Firefly Vodkas, this restaurant and bar carries the full line along with the Mo-Tea-To (their take on the mojito) and the Fly Swatter (a delicious mixture whose ingredients are a closely guarded secret). Locals travel from throughout the Abaco Islands chain to enjoy lunch or dinner here and catch one of the best views of the Sea of Abaco.
