[highscores]

I cant believe im here... just 7 sleeps away...

My girlfriend and I have been waiting for our 7 day Negril getaway for 6 months now. When on vacation, we mainly focus on trying as many new food experiences as possible. I want to know all the must try restaurants, street stands, or whatever else they will be serving food out of in negril. I have never really had jamaican food in my life but am excited to try whatever they have to offer. Thanks!

P.S. WE LOVE SEAFOOD!

My wife and I have been vacationing in Negril since 1992 and will be returning for a couple weeks in February. Be prepared for a little wait and enjoy the surroundings. The wait is worth it and I'm sure you will have your own list of favorites for your return trips in the future. Below are a few of our favorite I posted on an earlier thread.


There's many great choices on the beach. Here's a few that we go to. Miss Lena's for breakfast (it's right on the beach next to Sea Splash) Ozzie's Jerk Centre, Cosmo's and Alfred's for Lunch and Ozzie's Top Spot (many know this as Miss Madge's at Donaldson's Inn) for dinner. This is our favorite dinner choice. She has excellent Red Snapper, King Fish and some of the best Shrimp, Chicken and Lobster Chop Suey you'll ever have. With exception of the Lobster Chop Suey everything is under $10 US. A few other good dinner choices are Cool Spot across the road from Foote Prints and Chances for pizza is very good. For lunch on the beach, watch for Norman the "Pattie Man" pushing his bike down the beach. We eat good and also get good value for our money. I'm sure you will get alot of good suggestion from your post so enjoy wherever you choose to go.........and remember to "walk good".

i love this board

thank you so much for all the replies so far. I've heard lots about Ivans, Ozzies, and best in the west from the jerk chicken threads, will have to check those out for sure. Bentley's sounds like it should satisfy my crab appetite.

please keep 'em coming. this is seriously all i plan to do, eat and watch the sun until im hungry again! you will all be rewarded with quality HD pictures when the day finally comes

Another vote for bentley, remember to head over a day early and give him a heads up. I love walking up the lane... Crab house looks deserted... So I give a holla "whattagwan Bentley friends are here!" after that it's just a blur of smiles n laughter.

Teddy's Hideaway is in the blue cave castle head there and you chill in the yard and have fun in their caves. try the lobster thermodore- trust!

Late night Eddies Debar is the place.

Sips n Bites is a nice local lunch spot, great fried chicken.

If you're feeling fancy... Try The Spa Retreat, Rockhouse or Ivan's.

You can't go wrong really... Just eat your way down the road... All week! leave dinner and head straight to supper!

Our favorites are Ivan's, 3 Dives, Bentley's, Cosmo's, Best in the West, and Kuyaba. We need to try Shark's and Swordfish next trip.

Brandy snapper at Sunset After Dark . Had that last night it was great.

For fine dining you can't beat Ivan's at Catcha or Kuyaba. Teddy at Teddy's Hideaway at the Blue Cave Castle may be the best chef in Negril. Don't miss Canoe, great food and vibes, the ultimate place to chill. Also Sunset After Dark, huge burgers but everything else we've had there has been top notch especially the best seafood pasta ever.
