Orient Beach Restaurants

Quick guide to eating in Orient Bay

Orient Bay is home to a wide variety of restaurants, from relaxed beachfront spots to refined evening tables. This guide brings together both well-known addresses and local favorites, whether or not they are currently partnered with BookStMartin.

How to Choose Where to Eat in Orient Bay

Orient Bay is split between beachfront dining right on the sand and the restaurants in Orient Bay Village just behind the beach. If you’re after a laid-back lunch with sea views, the beach bars and beach clubs are the easiest choice. For dinner, the village tends to feel more intimate, with a wider range of cuisines and a more evening-focused atmosphere.
If you’re visiting in high season, reservations are strongly recommended for dinner, especially on weekends. For lunch, arriving earlier helps if you want the best tables and a slower, more relaxed experience.
Whether you prefer chic beachfront dining, family-friendly spots, or a lively place for cocktails, this guide helps you compare options quickly — and decide what fits your mood today.
