Montserrat
Dance in the sand at this chilled beach bar, which gets packed for Saturday-night karaoke. The rest of the time it serves simple meals such as burgers, rotis and sandwiches, as well as a changing daily special. The wooden bar was rescued from Sir George Martin’s AIR recording studio.
The owners also put on the wildly successful annual Montserrat Idol singing contest.
