Chat 'N' Chill Beach Bar & Grill

Chat ‘N’ Chill is a must-visit when you’re in Exuma. It offers the perfect laid-back island vibe that invites you to slow down and stay awhile. Whether you plan to hang out for a few hours or spend the whole day, it’s easy to relax here—wade in the shallow, crystal-clear waters with a drink in hand or take a walk and explore the area. The food is solid—not over-the-top amazing, but definitely satisfying. The fresh conch, made to order, is a highlight and the prices are very reasonable. If you’re visiting with kids, there’s plenty to keep them entertained like beach volleyball and cornhole. I’d recommend bringing a football or some snorkel gear to give them more to do. Need to unwind even more? There’s usually someone offering massages right on the beach. One heads-up: bring cash. Their credit card machine wasn’t working during our visit. And I understand coolers are highly discouraged. All in all, another great experience at Chat ‘N’ Chill. Highly recommend if you’re looking to relax, recharge, and enjoy a true island atmosphere.

Good food for a small bar on a small island across the channel from Great Exuma. You'll need a boat ride to get there. Stocking Island is beautiful and peaceful. The beach right by the bar is unbelievably beautiful. We rented an umbrella and chairs and was set up right by the clear water. When we got hungry, we walked a few steps to the bar/grill and ordered food. Sure, it took a while to get our food but we were on island time like the locals. The food was good and hot. We enjoyed our day trip to the island.

We read you have to try Chat N Chill if you go to Exuma, and we can confirm this is absolutely true. So thankful we went! Great family friendly place with great drinks and food. Our kids loved feeding the stingrays. Freshest conch salad ever. They literally pluck the conch out of the water and harvest it in front of you!

45 minutes waiting time.. The food very so so as you can see on the photos. You got just a bun with something ordered for instance meat 🥩. There is special place with vegetables and sauces so you can prepare your meal ;) that’s nice but overall waiting time is a disaster! Hotdog 🌭- quite ok. 👍 Conch burger 🍔- needs improvement for sure Grilled cheese 🧀- horrible! Didn’t expect to get a bun with processed cheese… it is good vegetables were there, otherwise waste of money 🙅‍♂️

Everyone who goes to Exuma, tells you to go to chat and chill. Everyone. So on a family holiday we went to chat and chill. First. We got on Elvis’s water taxi in Georgetown. If you meet a man named big pimpin, he’s legit. Taxi was fine. Quick ride. Then you get to a shack on stocking island. We rented lounges and tent cabanas. Did we need to? Absolutely not! It’s expensive and you can bring your own. We did because we came with three adults in their 70’s. But there is only picnic tables at chat and chill. So you either sit on those, or your towel. We were happy with the rental! Drinks were meh. Food. Well. I wouldn’t rush to eat there anytime soon! But be warned, they do run out of ice! They are on an island! So if you’re a slushy drink person, they might not have any. There is volleyball and cornhole. We didn’t partake because on their website it says you have to pay, so we didn’t investigate more. Now was this an experience? Yes. After talking to some more people. We learned about the coconut club. So if you’re boujee and want something clean and with better food. Go to coconut club. If you want to drink beer on the beach and don’t really care, go to chat and chill.

The bar is classic bar. Drinks were good. But the real prize is the conch salad prepared by Renaldo. The best ever. Watch his chop and enjoy.

Location, location, location. Must visit. Reasonable priced drinks and food on awesome beach. Went back twice. There are a couple water taxi and other ways to get to Stocking island.. Stingrays can be fed.

Chat 'N' Chill offers a unique blend of relaxation, culinary delights, and island activities, making it a must-visit destination for those traveling to the Exumas. There's a volleyball court and opportunities to interact with friendly stingrays that frequent the shallow waters. Very friendly atmosphere, praising the great drinks, beautiful beach, and the opportunity to interact with stingrays. This beach bar provides an experience that embodies the spirit of the Bahamas. Perfect place for adults and kids.
