Where to eat Jamaican food in Montego Bay: The Best Restaurants and Bars

August 9, 2020 Mollie Coke

Reviews on Jamaican food in Montego Bay, Saint James Parish, Caribbean. While this Jamaican spring break favorite is great for party animals, it can also be surprisingly low key – if you want. Montego Bay has excellent duty-free shopping, vibrant nightlife, and calm waters. Browse the local handicrafts at the open-air Harbour Street market, or the "hip strip" shops of Gloucester Avenue. The underwater crevices of Widowmaker’s Cave offer an intricate diving experience. Float serenely down the Martha Brae River on a bamboo raft and let your troubles melt away under the sun.

Great atmosphere right on the beach, with live music. The service was really slow and less than friendly. Dinner was OK. My chicken didn't seem cooked all the way through and the cocktails were made with cheap mixers. Others in our party liked their entrees better. I'd skip this place and head down the road for better eats.

Last morning in Jamaica and my good friends took me to their favourite spot for breakfast. Had lovely ackee and saltfish, with delicious fried dumplins and authentic jamaican coffee. Absolutely delicious. Very comfortable setting and seating, and very professional friendly staff. Will certainly head back in the near future.

Visited pier1 recently, the location was beautiful, service was slow but whilst I was eating my meal a rat sat on my foot and ran through the restaurant and into the ocean! Very unsanitaryHello Beth,Pier one is a restaurant located on the seaside of downtown Montego bay. It is built on large boulders in he harbor. Over the 30 years plus we have been in operation we work very diligently at passing every health and safety inspection. As in every city, rodents can be an issue, which is why we have exterminators monthly. We are sorry that this has happened to you and we are doing everything to ensure it does not reoccur.Hope you visit again.

Gorgeous setting! This restaurant is absolutely beautiful. The staff was speedy, informative, and professional. All our entrees were fantastic, from the pork chop (thickest cut of pork I have ever had) to the scallops to the fish. Great selection of cocktails. Fantastic salads. This place is a must do.

The Houseboat Grill

Reviewed By tknapp40

So we initially dismissed this restaurant thing that it was actually on a boat and my wife gets motion sick in a rocking chair. The concierge at Round Hill hotel highly recommended this place and he was spot on. It is a quaint 2-story open air “house boat” that is on the water but fixed in place (you have to take a little skiff about 20 feet from the shore to the “boat”). The food was fabulous and the view was amazing (try booking a table for sunset-you won’t be disappointed.If you need a ride to/from wherever your staying, you need to contact the best driver in all Montego Bay. His name is Goofy (876-435-1370), but there is nothing “goofy” about Goofy. We used him our entire stay and he is a gentle giant that will make sure you get where you want to go and you’re safe the entire time. We visited a number of “local” places and got nothing but great service.
