4 Best Bars in Montserrat

This perennial favorite doesn't close as long as customers are thirsty. The name was a teasing reference to the original owner's penchant for napping at the bar (when he wasn't complaining—mostly humorously—about a plumber's hard life and long hours).

This is the best spot on the island for shooting pool and the breeze; get here early for luscious fried and barbecued chicken, liberally daubed with mouth- and eye-watering homemade sauces and seasonings, accompanied by frosty beers and local firewater liqueurs.

As its name implies, this delightful liming hot spot overlooking the beach offers live Caribbean beats; it's also the home of the Montserrat Idol singing competition. Expat owner Tom Walker is passionate about the island's musical heritage, including the halcyon days of AIR Studios. On Sunday, it seems as if half of Montserrat descends on the bamboo bar and whitewashed patio for meals, music, and merriment. Karaoke is available upon request. 

In addition to DJ sets, this place sometimes offers brings in the island's up-and-coming musicians. Locals also savor breakfast, lunch, and weekend barbecues.
