Cracked Conch

‘Old-time Cayman fun in the 21st century’ is the best way to describe Cracked Conch, a renowned West Bay restaurant. A Cayman classic originally opened by Bob and Suzy Soto in 1981, and more than 40 years on, the Cracked Conch continues to offer one of the most enviable waterfront positions on the Island. Over the years it has showcased fabulous food in a fine-dining ambiance, friendly service, and a lively oceanside bar downstairs.

Regulars and newcomers are always taken aback by the breathtaking views that Cracked Conch offers of the Caribbean Sea. And now they can enjoy an extended restaurant with white tablecloth service and an exciting menu; a beautiful, very cosmopolitan bar/lounge; alfresco dining on multiple patios overlooking the ocean and private dining for up to 45 in Soto’s Room. 

Cracked Conch offers Caribbean delights and international fare in an unparalleled setting. Signature conch specialities, including tender cracked conch and robust conch chowders are served alongside new classics like seared local snapper and grilled octopus. Open the doors wide, push open those shutters and let the breeze wash over you. Relax away the day or evening on one of the beautiful patios or unwind in a comfortable chair in the very chic bar with its amazing bubble ‘sculpture’.

For something more casual, take a seat at the fun and informal Macabuca Oceanside Tiki Bar, where Caribbean food and ice-cold drinks are served at the water’s edge all day every day. Be sure to stop by on Monday night for the world famous All You Can Eat BBQ for CI$22 plus a late night happy hour from 5pm-10pm!

Save room for dessert as well; their homemade ice cream sandwiches are the perfect ending to a hot day in the sun.

Wherever you end up, it will be difficult to tear yourself away to return to normality!
