The laidback vibe of a Parisian café meets the barefoot cool of a beach club at the newly revamped Catherine’s Café. The 100-seat French restaurant – now in its third decade – is inarguably one of Antigua’s most lauded eateries.

Creative Provence-style cuisine with fresh local ingredients is complemented by a quality wine selection, inspired cocktails and a new beach menu featuring sharing plates like French tartines.

Catherine’s was recently taken over by the distinguished Rocks Group, the very same behind the award-winning Sheer Rocks restaurant. They have infused the Pigeon Beach venue with their own flair, honouring old favourites and revitalising the core dishes that have long made Catherine’s a favourite among foodies from far and wide. Two new beach areas provide a shady lounge spot with hammocks and day beds, ideal for languid afternoons. The playlist is a tip of the hat to the iconic Parisian café scene.

Think the sleekness of Saint-Germain-style music with the relaxed vibe of a beach club. This exquisite long-running restaurant perfectly blends classic French fare with innovative contemporary influences and a cool, fun Caribbean atmosphere.
