One of our very best meals in Anguilla in February 2026, was at Straw Hat Restaurant, located at the beautiful Frangipani Beach Resort on Meads Bay. We loved it so much that we dined there twice during our 10-day stay — and we tried many restaurants on the island.
The service was exceptional — attentive, polished, and genuinely warm without ever feeling intrusive. It’s clear they take pride in what they do.
The food was creative, incredibly fresh, and absolutely delicious. I had the Asian Salad with blackened chicken both times because it was that good — perfectly balanced, flavorful, and beautifully prepared.
The atmosphere is wonderful — elegant yet relaxed, with that quintessential Meads Bay setting that makes Anguilla so special. The cocktails were also fantastic and thoughtfully crafted.
Reservations are important, as it’s understandably popular. If you’re visiting Anguilla, this restaurant should absolutely be on your list. It was easily one of our favorites of the entire trip.
