Bikini Beach Barbados

We passed by this restaurant on our second night in town and made a reservation for Tuesday night party of 4 at 7 PM. We checked in at the hostess station and within minutes , wew were taken to seating upstairs. This was a lovely dining room, as it had glass windows looking out over the ocean, the ceiling was covered in ivy and the vibe was very good, however, it too cold up there for the ladies (we just left winter behind in the US) and we opted to go back downstairs. The hostess was very kind and offered to adjust the air; however, we preferred to feel the beauty of the Barbados weather and the downstairs is completely open air. Resettle , in order cocktails , the cousin and I got a hurricane and the gentlemen ordered Pina coladas. We\nGot the temporary shrimp appetizer as well as the chicken wing appetizer.I ordered a margherita pizza and the boyfriend ordered lobster tacos. My cousin ordered the pepperoni Pizza and her husband got the Caesar salad and added the chicken breast. The tempoua shrimp was good and crisp, the sauce was very flavorful; however, i don't think the shrimp was prepared correctly to go in the batter because it fell out of its tempura, actually all of them did. The chicken wings for delicious v seasoning was very flavorful and of course , you can't have chicken without adding a little bit of the local barbados hot sauce! The Caesar salad with chicken was described as very fresh, the dressing was very flavorful, and the chicken breast was cooked perfectly. The pizzas that my cousin and I ordered were very fresh tasting, light and perfectly seasoned. The boyfriends rates his lobster tacos , three out of five stars , stating that there were only four small nuggets of lobster per taco, and it was bland tasting. We did love the atmosphere as we were right at the water. The sound of the waves crashing was very soothing and enhanced the whole dining experience. The upstairs gave off an elegant flare, and the downstairs was much more laid back and casual. I can't say that I would return as the cost was $150 US dollars for an order of 5 chicken wings, 4 tempura shrimp, 2 lobster tacos and a 12 inch Pizza.

We were seated on the beach could be good could be other, we had no reservation. My cushion was wet....that's ok I'm in Barbados. We sat for 20 minutes waiting for water and to order a drink. When it was apparent we were forgotten we got up to sit at the bar, where our server could see us and a table became available. We ordered Water, a Banks and a glass of white wine (my wife felt it was stingy) ,15 minutes later I went up to the bar to ask about our water and drinks, it wasn't busy but their was only one server working. The bartended looked into it and asked me if we had been waiting awhile since I came up to the bar. Another 10 minutes later our food arrived at the same time as our drinks. First night back in Barbados not starting too great. We ordered Fish Cakes..my wife had the fish tacos and I had the Grilled Fish Sandwich. My Grilled Fish sandwich was good with a generous portion of fish that was grilled nicely. My wife's fish tacos were very average with little fish and the tacos tough to chew. Now, the fish cakes, dense, heavy with very little flavour and little evidence of fish. We stopped in on a whim because many places were closed on a Monday. As such I didn't read reviews in advance. Perhaps it was an off night. Great location.

Wanted to hit a beach close to my Airbnb and ended up at Bikini Beach Barbados. Got myself a seat and an umbrella and just decided to spend the whole afternoon there. Went for a swim first — the water felt amazing. They also had a few activities set up in the sea, like a big trampoline and this crazy inflatable hill you could climb. Tried it… didn’t make it to the top 😂 but it was fun anyway. After my much-needed swim I chilled with some sparkling water and grabbed tacos — chicken and kingfish. They were pretty okay, nothing mind-blowing but hit the spot. All in all, not a bad way to waste an afternoon by the sea. 🌊🌮

Bikini Beach Barbados is an absolute vibe! From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere was welcoming, fun, and full of that true Bajan energy. The service was friendly and attentive, the drinks were on point, and the food was fresh and flavorful. The beach views alone are worth the visit — beautiful, relaxing, and perfect for unwinding or spending time with friends. I had an amazing experience and will definitely be back. Highly recommend for anyone looking for good food, good vibes, and a gorgeous beach setting!

I had an amazing experience at Bikini Beach! The food was absolutely incredible, and the overall dining experience exceeded my expectations. Our host, Elesha, was 5 stars—warm, attentive, and truly made the evening extra special. We called ahead and reserved seating in the upstairs dining room with air conditioning, which was the perfect choice—comfortable, cozy, and a great way to end my night and birthday celebration. The drinks were delicious, and I was surprised with a special birthday treat, which made the evening even more memorable. This hidden gem is the ideal spot for families, groups, or travelers wanting to enjoy both a welcoming atmosphere and excellent dining on the island. I would highly recommend Bikini Beach to anyone looking for a wonderful meal and a truly enjoyable experience.
