Catherine’s Café can be found along Antigua’s southern peninsula at stunning Pigeon Point Beach. This beloved gem is tucked into the corner of sailor’s paradise, English Harbour. Established in 2006, it became a Rocks Group Restaurant in 2017, now alongside Sheer Rocks & Rokuni.

The French-inspired beachfront venue offers modern, healthy, and stylish menus that are created around the native produce from local famers, which a focus on fresh seafood. Catherine’s Café is surrounded by lush greenery and mesmerising neem trees, providing an idyllic backdrop for long daytime lunches or refined & relaxed dinners by the sea.

Saturday afternoons are a crowd-favourite, featuring live music on the beach, as are Wednesday evening Jazz Nights with the O'Neal-Mason Quartet. The fun and friendly staff only heighten the experience!
Luxurious daybeds are sprawled across the sand, with a popular beach menu, designed for sharing. Sit back with a rosé in hand and enjoy Catherine’s sun dappled setting.

It was an okay experience, but service has been on a steady decline for years. Servers changed 3 times so we had no idea who to flag down for another cocktail or wine. For a very quiet Monday lunch, it was painful how little attention we received for more than enough staff.

Not the best experience this time. Having eaten here on many occasions, today was really rather chaotic. We ordered wine when we sat down but after four occasions asking for it, eventually it arrived over 40 minutes and after having eaten our starters. They eventually were very apologetic, I think it was the bar manager who brought the wine to us.

As always we had a great lunch and day by the sea at Catherine’s. The staff made our family who were over to visit very welcome too.

This restaurant we have visited 10 times over 5 years when always a great experience with an amazing ambiance. Live music on Saturday is the best in Antigua with new quality acts performing.

We always enjoy our visits to Catherine’s. The food is so fresh and delicious and well presented. The live music is pleasant and not overbearing. It’s nice for the staff to have music in the background too!

We enjoyed our lunch in such a glorious seafront setting. I don’t think Value for Money comes into it. This is an expensive place to dine and you go there knowing it. My grilled lobster and fries was delicious as was the tarte tatin. But I think the Gazpacho is far too spicy. The genuine Andalucian gazpacho is a milder flavour where you can taste the finely chopped tomato, cucumber and peppers. A dash of tabasco can be added but it doesn’t mask the taste like this one does. A lovely lunch all the same.

great food in a very lively atmosphere right on the beach, my husband and I loved it, we didn't have a lot of food but what we had was excellent (and expensive, but what isn't at the nice places on this island?!). We booked for 5pm, got there early and luckily our table was ready. The.music was very loud so don't go if you want a peaceful meal, but the band were great and with lots of people dancing and enjoying themselves the jolly atmosphere was very infectious! The sunset on the beach behind the trees was stunning too, we just nipped onto the beach to get a view and a couple of pics of it. Definitely recommend this place.
