Wonderfully delicious buffet lunch with SPECTACULAR view of Soufriere and both Pitons. Reasonable price of $20 considering many-choice buffet plus drink and dessert. Friendly service. Very clean and tidy establishment. Coffee is superb, as noted by another! Watch out for the hungry little birds if you leave your plate unattended!

Our tour guide took us to The Beacon Restaurant for lunch. We enjoyed the variety of St.Lucian signatures at this buffet style restaurant. Everything we tried was full of flavor and very filling. We had excellent service. The staff were very kind and friendly. Not to mention, the views were breath taking. This was one of the many highlights of our time on this beautiful island.

Ok so the service was sketch and the food….blah. BUT THE COFFEE!!! Best in the world. Place was clean clean; I could eat off the floor here. Super quiet too. We were the only ones there on off season. Nice view. I will go back for coffee daily when I return.

A must-visit for anyone who loves bold local flavor, warm hospitality, and unforgettable views. The buffet was great, each dish full of rich, dynamic flavor that truly celebrates local cuisine, from the food to the drinks. The setting is equally impressive, with views of the Pitons in the background adding a whole other level of magic to the experience. It’s clearly a popular spot! There was a full house during our visit, and people kept pouring in. Though a bit strained, the service was attentive. The staff were warm, friendly, and made you feel welcome. It’s cash only, so be sure to plan accordingly.

We came here so many times—it quickly became a favorite! The food, the staff, the view… absolutely stunning! For just $20, the buffet lunch offers plenty of food, loads of variety, plus a juice, a glass of water, and dessert—all included. Huge thanks to the amazing staff, always smiling and welcoming. I especially loved their hospitality—and the Creole chicken was a standout!
