Why sit in rush hour traffic when you could sit it out on a breezy deck? Stop in at the Lobster Pot for an after-work drink and a snack from the appetiser list. With perfect views of the setting sun and tables overlooking the water, there are few better places to while away an hour or two. Sip a sundowner with friends, go with the family, meet a special someone for Wednesday ‘Date Night’, or join friends for an à la carte Sunday brunch with Prosecco. www.lobsterpot.ky
Brought to Camana Bay by the creators of Agua, the speak-easy style bar, Next Door, offers up two distinct ambiances: low-lit booths and sofas to lounge on indoors or a more contemporary urban vibe on the terrace. Serving fine wines, cocktails inspired by local herbal remedies, gourmet finger foods, and live jazz, it’s an atmospheric stop, whether for a pre-dinner aperitif or one last nightcap on the way home. www.nextdoor.ky
Step into the classically elegant Silver Palm Lounge at the Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman, with its views out to the lush gardens, and prepare for a refined gourmet experience. Treat the family to a traditional British afternoon tea with all the trimmings – finger sandwiches, freshly baked pastries, and a choice of teas – or go a little later with a special someone and indulge in a rum, cigar, and cacao pairing or a perfectly blended cocktail. www.ritzcarlton.com
After an evening stroll through the town centre, or a little weekend playtime for the kids on Camana Bay’s waterfront, Agua’s terrace is an irresistible spot to sit awhile. Whatever your appetite or craving, Agua’s chefs and mixologists have the perfect treat in-store, from craft cocktails to legendary ceviche, Italian-inspired mains or platters designed for sharing. Day or night, enjoy a light bite or a full-on feast as you watch the world go by. www.agua.ky
What could be a better combination than gifts, flowers, and afternoon tea? Make your way to Every Bloomin’ Thing any afternoon of the week, and enjoy a delightful high tea in a peaceful, plant-filled environment. A charming spot to take a friend, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped into a bygone age, where you can look out across the gardens as you sip loose-leaf tea and enjoy warm English scones with strawberry jam and clotted cream. www.ebt.com.ky
Whether you want to catch up with friends over coffee and croissants, enjoy a quiet chat as you savour a fresh, tasty sushi roll, or tour the Middle East through the medium of food, Anchor and Den is the place to meet and eat. At the heart of the Marriott resort, this versatile space draws on global food traditions to offer a never-ending variety of experiences that range from afternoon tea and weekly ramen nights to Sunday Brunch, all in a single – and singularly appealing – venue. www.anchorandden.com
