Straw Hat Restaurant

Talk about breakfast/dinner with a view!!! Beautiful restaurant overlooking the beach and Mead’s Bay. Very quiet and peaceful listening to the water hit the shore. Probably the most peaceful breakfast and dinner spot. Staff very helpful and friendly, food fresh and nicely prepared. By far the best breakfast on the island! They offer chairs and umbrellas to their dining and bar guests.

The food was absolutely amazing! I went for breakfast and dinner and both were great. The drinks were amazing as well! A lot of options and they are pretty strong!! As far as the service.. it was top tier! Rosie was sooooo sweet. She made the experience that much better. You can tell she is a hard worker and really takes care of her guests!! I totally recommend this place and definitely ask for Rosie!! We went twice while here both on Wednesday nights and there was live music which I loved. Also if you sit in front of their restaurant in the beach chairs (free) and along the beach down to turtles nest, someone will come out with their food & drink menu and serve you right from the beach. Omar served us from the beach and he was also outstanding! Overall a great experience and we will definitely be back.

We arrived via taxi late at 7:30 after sunset and had no wait. You could likely walk from your hotel along Meads Bay, but sand is soft and you will need a phone or flashlight. Recommend taking a taxi. Food was excellent and arrived promptly. Would definitely recommend it.

we headed back to Meads for dinner at the Straw Hat. We started with the Tuna flatbread, which has been my favorite thing we have had to eat so far. They brought us some warm bread in a straw hat, which was a cool touch. The bread was sweet, and very good. For dinner my wife had the seafood pasta, which was loaded with fish and shrimp and extremely rich. I had the simple grill mahi mahi with coconut rice, Asian salad, and a ginger vinaigrette. We then had the coffee ice cream pie for dessert. It was a great place to sit and watch the July 4th fireworks from the Four Seasons.

Literally the perfect lunch, such fresh fish, unbelievably beautiful view, all seamlessly combined with service at the complimentary beach chairs. My wife scraped her knee, they scrambled and found a bandage. Just all around some of the best, most genuinely friendly service we’ve ever had.

Beautiful. Love that the back is open to the beach and it’s a perk that they give you a chair and umbrella if you eat there. The food was good, the atmosphere was great and the servers were nice. What more could you ask for? We were there in the off season so there weren’t many other patrons, but I could see it being slammed in the tourist season.

We came back after 10 years and it was just as good as we remembered it. Awesome and delicious! An amazing seating on the beach and a 10 minute walk from the four seasons along the beach. Great kids menu too! The tuna, crayfish and the salad were exceptional! And big portions so come hungry. And don’t forget to order the tuna tart and the ice cream sandwich!

Mari was our server & he was fantastic!!! So easy to talk to and have us lots of great recommendations for the area. The beach is beautiful, and we haven’t stopped talking about how phenomenal the food was (specifically the seafood tacos). Mari really made our visit special ❤️
