SHERRY & DARRELL'S RESTAURANT TIPS...
1
Scotchies...
T: 1.876.953.8041 | Reviews
The prime destination for an authentic island experience, Scotchies
has an inviting atmosphere with rustic touches. The casual dining
establishment dishes out jerk chicken, jerk pork, steamed fish and more,
all served smoking and piping hot on aluminum foil. This is TripAdvisor's
#1 restaurant in Montego Bay (as of July 2015). You have to try it!

Bamboo Blu...
T: 1.876.974.9983 | Reviews
Bamboo Blu is located right on the beach, with unmistakable royal
blue tablecloths. The menu is upscale and creative with great
ambiance, especially for dinner. Get the most out of your meal here
by skipping lunch, which tends to draw crowds, and enjoy an al fresco
dinner as the sun sets.

Juici Beef...
T: 1.876.670.0947 | Reviews
Looking for a quick, cheap, tasty meal? Look no further than Juici
beef, a go-to for locals, and a 2014 "Best of Jamaica" winner. The
place is famous for its Jamaican-style beef patties, but they also
make great soups. Despite the name, they do have vegetarian
options aplenty and, no, they don’t serve hamburgers!
Ultimate Jerk Centre...
T: 1.876.973.2054 | Reviews
Another favorite among locals, this is a great place to stop for a
quick bite while exploring Discovery Bay. For a decent price, you
can try island standbys such as jerk chicken and pork, curried
goat, and steamed fish served with rice, peas and dumplings. Like
cricket? Catch a match on the weekend on the adjacent grounds!
Anyone for a Little Retail Therapy?
Local Art & Crafts...
Mainstream Shopping...
Try the Mais Oui Gift Shop...
Wassi Art is a prime destination
for great pottery that's almost
always worth the price—but
be careful, as it's not a place
to haggle. The Ocho Rios Craft
Market can be hit-or-miss, but
some great local and handmade
souvenirs can be found here.
Vendors can be pushy, but that
also means they're open to
negotiating.
The Shoppes at Rose Hall in
Montego Bay carry upmarket
brands like Chanel, Cartier, and
Dior with prices to match. Fine
jewelry and watches are here
too, and, of course, the shopping
is duty free. Island Village, Soni’s
Plaza and Taj Mahal Shopping
centers are the top three places
for duty-free shopping in Ocho
Rios, especially for jewelry.
Available only to our villa guests,
the Mais Oui Gift Shop is stocked
with locally made items specially
curated for our guests. We love
the ceramic pieces hand-made
in Kingston by Frazier Ceramics.
Our coffee is authentic and much
cheaper than at the airport. The
art is by local Jamaican artists,
including one of our favorites,
Richard Hall.
