St. Kitts, Caribbean Food Guide: 10 Bar food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Basseterre
Find out what Bar restaurants to try in Basseterre. Nestled between the Caribbean and lush mountains, Basseterre has a long history of colonial struggle that is reflected in its architecture and cultural monuments. The National Museum, St. George's Anglican Church, the Circus area and Independence Square all give glimpses to the city's past. But most travelers do not come to Basseterre for history; they come for the beaches, resorts and marinas, offering ample snorkeling, windsurfing, diving, sunbathing and golfing opportunities.

10. Twist Lounge & Global Cuisine

There's not a lot to recommend the port/capital city of St.Kitts, Basseterre, however there's a gem hiding amongst the bustling waterfront: Twist Lounge. Up a flight of stairs sharing a building with a cigar emporium and across from a mid-seedy casino, the Twist has a wide variety of decidedly unexpected dishes. We had the curried chicken and a seafood (fresh) stew. Both were very well presented and reminiscent of visits to top level Indian or far east bistros. Not the iguana soup you get in Bon Aire or the Red fish in Aruba, but a startling entree in the St.Kitts somewhat lack luster culinary efforts. We'd go back. Service seems a little lackadazical, but it's really just island time, man---prices are extremely reasonable considering you get a serious feast with the entrees.Kudos to the chef. It made St.Kitts a much more palatable stop on our recent journey through the eastern Caribbean.

We got a recommendation from a person who works at the Resort we were staying at in St. Kitts. He's in the picture below and does a amazing job at the Resort. Anyway, this restaurant has the best local food! We wanted to try a local dish. We kept hearing about the dumplings and salt fish so we ordered it and it was amazing! It almost looked like stew. I heard their Pina Coloda's were the best and that they are. The service was fantastic. It is located on Princess Street up the road from the cruise port. You'll see the city clock in the middle of the road and then you take a left after it. The value is unbelievable! We ordered 2 lunches and 3 drinks and it was only $38! If you are in St. Kitts you must try this restaurant!

The food was average. We ate at the buffet, It was fresh and prepared well, but the taste was not to our liking. The atmosphere and view were great. Right on the beach. Nice outdoor patio.

we used this Breeze Bar situated right on the beach for lunch & dinner, the speciality was the whole lobster but we choose the fresh prawns with pleanty of trimmings. A lot of people use the Shack from the cruise boats at lunchtime then many local people

Fab place on the Frigate Bay strip for lunch, dinner, or a cocktail. Melted Lava Jerk Chicken is lovely (and not too hot!)

This is the beachfront bar for the Timothy Beach Resort and opens daily around 3pm. It was pretty quiet most days except Sunday night when a really good band plays in a friendly non-threatening environment.

Came here for dinner while on the islands after hearing about it from so many people. Be prepared for a very casual place where the service isnât great but that for me it is solid. Most of the places do not have this place did it just did not have a toilet seat. Everybody was very happy with their meals my only complaint was on the remix seafood Grill that the lobster was half empty, but the shrimp tacos had plenty of shrimp, the burrito bowl was not too big but it was filling in as it is a good amount of rice. The service was not that great because they were busy and there was only one service but all in all it was a great experience I am is a good option if youâre looking for Mexican. The chicken chimichanga was delicious and not greasy.Dear Guest,thank you very much for your feedback, please accept our apology for not getting a prompt service.. however we have been working quite a few things .. and your comments and suggestion are valuable for us.thank you once again.looking forward to see you.Team Chinchillas

Sprat net is wonderful restaurant located approximately 20 minutes north of Basseterre in Old Road Village. It is right on the water and is open for dinner. The owners are fishermen who go out in the morning and then serve their daily catch in the evening

A local dive master recommended this place and it was enjoyed. A bit on the hectic side-you ordered at a counter(line up) then payed across the room at the bar, then found a table space, inside the shed which was smokey to outside which we got. It took a while to get the food since they came around and asked who we were-6 times. When the food arrived we enjoyed it. We had ribs and local lobster( nothing like cold water type) and potato,squash,and bread and Jonnycake roll. The food was pretty good but the atmosphere was very good if you like that type of casual local flavor-we did. They had a band and the locals were there by the hundreds. aside for the students at the Vet school we might been the only "outsiders" The live lobsters were kept in a boat like tank so they were very fresh. I would recommend but get there by 6:30 because it got crowded and the parking is crazy.

Fantastic location ( right on the water front with a pier you can eat/chill on), cool restaurant design, REALLY attentive service, great food - visited twice with our daughters and everyone agreed it was one of the best places we ate. Recommend the evenings they have live music ( we went on a Thursday for this), also they hold a monthly full moon party which we did not try out but would if we return to St Kitts
