Cecilia’s High Point Cafe

Top choice in Antigua


With gorgeous views of the azure sea, this fabulous beachfront find is presided over by a former Swedish model and her host of animal friends. It strikes the perfect balance between informality and professionalism. Perennial top menu picks include the lobster ravioli and the beef tenderloin, although the regularly changing blackboard specials also beckon mightily. Reservations advisable.
