Sheer Rocks

October 15, 2025

Full transparency - the first time we attempted to visit SR on the way back from having driven round St John’s and Jolly Harbour, we’d hoped to stop and have dinner. But between arriving at the time the Cocobay hotel (in which Sheer Rocks is located) was doing fogging, the time (we’d missed sunset), the roadway in (the drive is full of potholes) and the unhelpful attitude of the Cocobay staff - we aborted. It appears the relationship between the resort Cocobay and SR isn’t an overly great one and CB isn’t very helpful to outside resort guests arriving to the SR restaurant… HOWEVER Earl (the supervisor of Sheer Rocks restaurant) followed us out and asked that we given them another try… and we’re glad we did. Our second attempt was MUCH better. We arrived at 5 pm and Earl personally sat us at a table with a gorgeous view of sunset for drinks pre dinner before sitting down for dinner at 5:30 pm at a neighboring table. My husband and I enjoyed the two course meal each - the pea and ham risotto was delicious, as was the red snapper and lobster ravioli entrees (albeit VERY pricey…) - think $280 USD for two. In future should we return, we may sit at the bar and just enjoy the a la carte tapas. BIG thanks again to Earl and his team for making our visit so very enjoyable.

Our group of 10 chose the tasting tapas menu which was absolutely fabulous. The location is unimaginably beautiful, but what really put the icing on the cake was our fabulous waitress, Nabby. She was professional, attentive, but most importantly of all, she was witty and engaging, making the whole experience so joyful and memorable. Thank you.

I went here on Saturday to celebrate my birthday. I live in the US. From the moment my friend and I entered, it was just the two of us, there were no smiles and cold demeanors. A very un-welcoming atmosphere. We entered near the bar and a gentleman said hello and asked if we had reservations and the name on the reservation. I will say I made a mistake and didn’t complete the booking fully, I knew there were openings on Open Table, so I went ahead and made the reservation as I stood there. I was on vacation, things happen, it was my mistake. However, the attitude we were greeted with, and that stayed throughout the entire evening was unacceptable. There was a family of 4 that came right after us and they didn’t have a reservation, and he accommodated them. I am still unsure why I was treated this way. The service was so bad that even after we were seated and ordered a drink, I no longer wanted to order their food. The minimum to spend on food is $90 and I didn’t believe this establishment deserved my money with the way I was being treated on my own BIRTHDAY. The server that seated us didn’t smile didn’t give a warm or welcoming birthday wishes. The second server advised us as soon as we sat, that we have a 2 hour time limit because they are “so busy” and kept repeating how busy they are anytime we asked anything. She brought out the bread, etc; and advised her I didn’t want to order food, only drinks and enjoy the view. She stated the 3rd time, they are so busy and said we had to move back to table by the bar. She also glared at us the entire time we were seated because we didn’t order food. The view is great, but save your money. The customer service is 0/10 here. I had 2 drinks and left and went somewhere else to happily spend over $150 for better service for my birthday dinner, and I was ok with that. Read the other reviews about their service! Select lowest rating and see for yourselves. My advise to this establishment….TREAT PEOPLE BETTER, especially on their special day!! Horrible.

Great vibes, views and food. Managed a walk in table on a Thursday night - but I would suggest you book ahead.

Booked this restaurant for dinner. The views are amazing and the place is very scenic, really a great spot to take pictures. But the food was ok at best, honestly there are far better places on the island for the same price. Also the service was almost nonexistent. It was pretty quick but we felt a bit like a burden at some point. So will recommend only for the cool views.
