The food was decent but the drinks and bartenders were awesome. Had a really good time sitting at the bar here. It was delightful. I suggest getting the "brac attack" best drink not on the menu. Worth the trip.

Beautiful outside restaurant located by the pool and seaside. We visited over the Easter Weekend -Saturday for lunch. The food is overrated and so is the price value and service.
The service was slow, nearly two hours...when the food arrived there was missing parts and a tad cold. Disappointed customers!
3. Coral Isle Club

Reviewed By HibiscusMeg - Grand Cayman
Coral Isle is the closest thing to a night club in Cayman Brac - and yet on a typical "busy" weekend there may be no more than 15 people. However; there are times when the 'club' has special guest DJ's and marketed events. The club/bar is very local and typically play reggae, soca and other Caribbean inspired music - the restaurant serves primarily local/caribbean food.

This is a stand attached to Edd's Place that sells freshly prepared Jerk chicken and pork. It is only available on the weekends. The nice lady at the department of tourism told us about it. She sid that the locals go crazy for it.

Open Wed/Fri/Sat for dinner. We got there around 7:30 PM and he was out of pork, but had plenty of chicken with more on the smoker.
This place wasn't as tricky as some reviews made it seem. If you drive like you're going to the airport, you can't miss it. There's a church parking lot right across the road, so it's easy to park.
Barry and his buddies were hanging out front and Barry was eager to show us what he had cooking on the grill. He welcomed us inside and said that he was out of pork, but had plenty of jerk chicken. For $12.50USD we got a large chicken quarter with a slice of fresh bread and some jerk sauce. That's pretty much what Barry's offers. We went around the corner to the market for sides, but that proved unnecessary since the chicken portions were large and the bread was sufficient to break up the flavors.
Chatting with Barry for a few minutes may have been the best part of the experience. He has a full-time job outside of this business, but he loves people and food, so Golden Jerk is his labor of love. You have to respect a place like this.

This restaurant was reasonably priced with a very interesting menu. The mistake we made the first time was not looking at the specials. Check out the specials or go for breakfast. This is a spot where all the locals go for lunch!

Reviewed By RockyMountainDiva - Rocky Mountains
If you want some genuine island food, this is a good place to visit. There are also things like burgers & fried chicken. The menu is small but the portions are generous. We ordered the popchoy and salt fish. This was a meal of salted codfish cooked with vegetables (carrots, onions, bok choy) and served with red beans and rice, butternut squash, a plantain and a fritter. Several sauces were available to spice up the food. No alcohol is served here. This is a very casual place and we felt comfortable in our damp beach wear.

We've pretty comprehensively tasted the menu, and everything was great, and reasonably priced. The quality of the ingredients is exceptional, especially for a small island where getting supplies is hard and expensive. We've had the pizza, the ribs, the nachos and the mussels (white wine and garlic). Not a disappointment in the bunch. Even the bread served with the mussels was superb. Staff were friendly and professional. Other guests were friendly, and were a nice mix of locals, ex-pats, and tourists.

This restaurant is right by the airport, literally walking distance. The sho mai is absolutely delicious. It’s definitely a must have. The foods served is mainly Chinese food but there was also a touch of Filipino foods on the menu. Surprisingly, they offered healthy selections too! Which is great! This place is definitely a must go to.
