Roquita, Spanish for “Little Rock”, is the younger sister to Antigua’s beloved Sheer Rocks, Catherine’s Café & Rokuni, the Rocks Group Restaurants. It can be found in the heart of English Harbour.
The Spanish-inspired venue is a Tapas & Wine Bar, dedicated to simplicity, without compromising quality.

The wine bar has a bodega-style charm and celebrates Spanish staples such as Patatas Bravas, Jamón Ibérico, and Sangria, while taking inspiration from the Caribbean and it’s fabulous local offerings.
On the drink list is a carefully curated selection of wines & cocktails that carry the unmistakable Rocks Group signature and standard.

Rocks Group has joined forces with Nicholson Gin to create Roquita’s new rooftop lounge, Negroni Terrazza. Antigua’s first ever cocktail-only venue features Nicholson’s OnTAP technology, serving exclusive craft cocktails on tap! Evenings feature live DJs, as the ultimate relaxed social space.

Everything was nice , there needs to be a main cocktail menu as the ones in pump aren’t the nicest of ones and sometimes a better variety is needed. Didn’t have two bottles of wine we wanted one was Minuty, I could of gone to the supermarket over the road and bought a bottle so not good , we had two drinks instead so the restaurant lost out , food was really really good apart from the calamari which was very bity, mostly flour crunchy stuff hardly any calamari so we left over half and said something but we’re still charged for it which we felt was unfair , all in all yes we would come back but we would bring our own wine to make sure we get a nice bottle ( minity and a Pinot noir ) and we most definitely would not order the calamari, we are wanting to bring our daughter who is a standard Michelin chef but we don’t want to disappoint her so we will think about it

We brought guests after having been introduced to this great establishment two weeks before, and again had a great experience. Our guests also enjoyed themselves, and also plan to return. The staff are excellent - we now have new friends!!!!

Well if I would have been greeted straight away when I arrived I would’ve oils have given service a higher star. Instead I was left waiting so my friend & I chose a table & sat down. This is Rocks Group, I expected more! We had a bottle of Cava which was delightfully light & easy drinking. Both had burgers, I asked for mine medium which was perfectly cooked with shoestring seasoned fries. Overall experience on a quiet Wednesday evening in English Harbour was good. I will return on a Wednesday for burger night again as the Tapas menu looked expensive and not to my traditional tapas taste. Great that Rock Group is expanding & wish Roquita every success.

We were the only guests at the time and Tia looked after us very well. We had a delicious old fashioned cocktail freshly made and two tapas dishes each. All the food was delicious. We will definitely return.

We enjoyed lovely tapas. The scotch egg being a favourite. Service was friendly and efficient. Place was busy and buzzing and the music from the Terrace was great! All the Rocks Group quality you expect, at an affordable price! Dinner for two with wine & water was only USD$100!

Just over a week in Antigua - managed to visit 4 of the groups restaurants. This feels very basic compared to the others but it’s good for a quick light bite. The wine was very good.
