Jost Van Dyke Lunch Options

Soggy Dollar Bar

The Soggy Dollar Bar offers a diverse menu with plenty of options for everyone. For fresh local seafood, try one of the best mahi sandwiches on the island. The conch fritters are also excellent and made with local seafood. Cheeseburgers and chicken tenders are available for kids and anyone looking for a simpler option.

Sidney’s Peace & Love

Fresh lobster is on the menu every day. You can choose the lobster you want, and the team will prepare it with a variety of delicious side dishes. Sidney’s offers local flavor and a fun atmosphere, complete with an honor bar where guests can pour their own drinks. It’s a beautiful place to relax like a local and enjoy fresh seafood.

Foxy’s Tamarind Bar

Enjoy lunch at Foxy’s iconic beach bar. Foxy is a local legend and may even come out to sing while you enjoy lunch and an island cocktail by the beach. Foxy’s also has one of the best gift shops on the island, making it a great place to pick up souvenirs and support the local economy.

Norman Island Lunch Options

If you’re snorkeling at the Indian Rocks or the world-famous Treasure Caves, Norman Island is a great place to stop for lunch. The area is often associated with the inspiration for Treasure Island, and visitors can enjoy a meal aboard a floating pirate ship or at a beautiful beach bar.

Willy T’s

If you want a fun lunch aboard a floating pirate ship, Willy T’s is a great choice. Enjoy a fresh fish sandwich or a rack of ribs while taking in the unique atmosphere. While your meal is being prepared, you can even jump off the back of the pirate ship for a refreshing swim. It’s a fun experience for all ages. Don’t forget to try a famous Pirate Painkiller or a frozen margarita while soaking up the sun aboard this one-of-a-kind floating restaurant.

Pirates Bight

Pirates Bight offers a beautiful beachfront setting with white sand and crystal-clear water, along with a relaxed sit-down dining experience. The extensive menu has something for everyone, making it a great choice for groups. If you’re looking for a slightly more upscale lunch in a stunning location, this private island destination is the perfect stop. Ask Captain Nate about adding Pirates Bight to your custom itinerary.
