Oh my gosh! So happy I found Shanti’s! Best people watching. Best feel for local life. So much better than the food at the Hilton where I’m staying. Best Roti, potatoes and curry chicken I’ve ever had!!! Thank you Shanti for being so gentle with my soul. I needed that. Will never forget that experience ❤️😘.

Within walking distance from the cruise port. A somewhat limited menu but the food itself is great! There is a bar with plenty of drinks as well as outdoor balcony sitting.
Shanti's is an upstairs bar in Bridgetown near the shops. It's very much a local place and not high end, but it's perfect if you want local vibes. Monique behind the bar was lovely and so friendly, but she was overrun, trying to serve behind the bar and prepare food in the kitchen. We had drinks and one of us had the lamb roti which I'm told was good but not perfect. I had some interesting conversations with local people. Beware, this bar is not smart, tidy or modern. But it was a great experience. An older couple from a cruise ship definitely did not seem impressed, with the bar or with Bridgetown. That's why reviews help! Give it a try for a drink, just for the vibe.
My family and I stopped here while walking through Bridgetown. It was one of our favorite meals while in Barbados. We had the curry beef it was so tender and flavorful, and you can tell it’s truly authentic. Pairing it with the warm, roti was perfection. It’s a great little spot with a friendly atmosphere. If you want delicious food and a chill bar vibe, definitely check them out!
