Bourbon Beach - seems to be great again

Ate there once in Feb, good food but horrible service. Ordered two beers as soon as I sat down and never had a chance to order more. Ended up sending a message to the lady who runs it but it took her a week for a two word response. Funny how if you are friends with her on Facebook she pimps the heck out of her place but if you want to complain she is too busy making excuses why they don't have fish tacos. Stopped back by 2 other times and lets just say I will not stop in again or send anyone there to do business.

Yeah, I had to remove said person from FB, because of the constant FB notifications.

Everyone's expectations vary, but we were in Negril for the last week of Jan. and had lunch there with friends, all ordering jerk chicken and chips, and service was prompt and pleasant and the food was fine. Also did carryout a couple of days, again for lunch of jerk chicken and chips, and again prompt, pleasant, and good food.

most everyone knows mi was a big fan of BB when Kevin was running the show...........
I stayed there a lot in 2012 and got to know the place quite well........
stopped in a couple times this winter to check things out...it was dead both times
not a big fan of things being more expensive like the drinks...........oh well
and they aren't using the same great Jerk Sauce as what they used with their Jerk Chicken in the past.....
overall I liked BB a lot better when Kevin was der.....it was a lot of fun and inexpensive
those were the days............

i stopped by there and couldn't believe it ---- where am i - where am i?

had a good laugh with the new young crop of gigs --- i overheard one tell his friend --- i know her from lang time --- she don't want no "boyfriend" --- i think my son knows them from lang time lol

The wife and I were there in February and left after 1 beer. Too many hookers and pimps. Scary guys watching our every move like we were a target or something. It was unfortunate too because the band was awesome.

Was in Negril the last week of February...disappointed that no major artists at Bourbon Beach. Saw Toots there last year and it was a phenomenal show. Not overly fond of the new improved BB...and Red Stripe prices are higher at night than in the daytime apparently. Ate there once and was surprised that there was a server charge if you were eating jerk chicken there rather than take out.

Oh! I hope it's good when I visit! BB was our "go to" place during the day. We motor down from the West End to spend the day at the beach. Last time, my friend Ian was AWESOME! He'd spot us and have us a couple chairs fixed up under the trees. Drinks were good for me, bartenders very nice! Maybe cuz I'm over 50 so I'm not a threat to anyone, LOL! And people help us older folks a little bit! Ian was awesome, hard working fella, did security at BB and I think a couple other jobs as well, I hope he's still around, I'll hafta ask my girlfriend if she still goes there during the day for a swim!

They were busy too, every day they were working and painting around the place, so looks like they were really keeping it up!

used to be a great place....now u gotta stay away from this area of the beach as noticed by others....too bad

Had dinner there last week, but it was an "early" dinner - during sunset. We had no problems with the food or the service. However, a couple staying at Rooms had an icky experience one night when they went down there for dinner. The husband dealt with a LOT of hassle at the bar when trying to get a couple drinks. Bartender and waitstaff witnessed, but said or did nothing about it. They were not impressed.
