Barefoot Beach Bar

Tried this place out on a recommendation from another couple we snorkeled with. Very glad we did! Excellent food and drinks. Good staff, loud atmosphere but had live music nights. I had the stir-fry and never before have I enjoyed veggies so much. Husband had spicy cilantro chicken Salbutes and they were very good. Dont forget the smoked mackerel dip to share! We put down plenty of coconut coolers, drinks were tasty and very well made. Update: came back again for the enchilada grande, burrito and salvutes lunch, and drinks. Let me be clear - BEST food, drinks, and staff in Placencia. Dont miss this place, its amazing!

⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ The atmosphere at this bar was incredible. We arrived just as a full red super moon was rising, which made the whole experience feel a little magical 🌕✨ The drink specials were unreal. We ordered the Poor Girl’s Pineapple Margarita, blended, and it was insanely huge but absolutely delicious. I also had the mango sweet tea, which was super refreshing. The lobster enchiladas were pretty good overall. The only downside was the service. Unfortunately, one of my friends got burned when a server passed very hot liquid from his food to him. It was clearly an accident and not her fault, but food should never be hot enough to cause a burn. That said, we’ll definitely be back and are already looking forward to our next visit! — Katrina Kindrat 💫🍍

Stopped here for our first meal as soon as we arrived in Placencia. Great atmosphere and food, friendly staff. Definitely try the lobster grilled cheese. We liked it so much we came back for it a few days later.

Exactly what I pictured when I booked my trip to Placencia. Many local catch options, designer interior with so many colors you feel like you’re in a Barbie movie. Super friendly staff and food that didn’t disappoint. Would go here every day if I live here.

We took an excursion for two hours here to the town which was amazing. The beach and this bar was actually very cool. When we were seated we waited a couple minutes and were greeted with menus and put in a drink order. Drinks were great but we waited for quite awhile before one of the bartenders came over to take our order. Once our order was in we waited quite some time and realized we had less than 45 minutes to get back to the boat. Our food still wasnt out so we notified the bartender we would have to cancel the order since it had taken so long. They tried to bring us our food in to go containers which we declined since you cant eat on the boat. After a lot of back and forth I talked to a woman (im assuming the owner) who asked what happened? I explained my side and was basically called a liar. She told me we were the type of people who give "cruise people" a bad name. So basically they resolved the issue but blamed us for causing the issue. Ultimately they all knew we were on the cruise line and also knew every group had limited time to enjoy the town. Even the street vendors acknowledged our short time there when asking us to buy items. Im happy with the resolution but could have gone without the owner scolding me and trying to insult me. Hurling insults back at this woman would be super easy but I won't stoop to her level. Crappy part of this whole thing is that the place was awesome and I really wanted to try what I ordered. Maybe another time since we are considering buying property in Placentcia. Also, this bar had a table full of locals that would rotate moving around the bar to sell items. They were very polite but will interrupt your table several times to sell. If this bothers you there might be other options that are better. Im giving a 3 given the situation but certainly should go lower based on the nasty attitude of the owner. Running a business is hard and maybe she was having a rough day.

Staff is amazing, and they work hard to make sure you have a great time. Their tag line “Stiff Drinks & Tasty Food “ is no lie. A must for anyone’s Placencia trip❤️

Great place at the beach in Placencia where you can have drinks, food and good time. Friendly service, tasty food and good music. Their new item on the menu, kebab was excellent with shrimps. No wonder they are being in business 20 years. If you are in Placencia highly recommend to check this place out.

We celebrated my 40th birthday here and it was a great time. The band was on point, our server was great and made sure we had drinks in hand, at our table or on the dance floor!
