Fig Leaf Café and Lounge Open Now

Fig Leaf Café and Lounge is a charming hideaway in Lower Morne Daniel, Canefield, just outside Roseau, offering a cosy mix of café, restaurant, and lounge in the cool hills above the city. Tucked just off the Edward Oliver LeBlanc Highway, it’s known for its relaxed, intimate atmosphere, warm service, and an “away from the hustle of town” setting that makes it ideal for unwinding after work or after a day of sightseeing.

The menu blends Caribbean comfort food with easy international favourites. Guests come for classics like jerk chicken and tostones, wings and chicken strips, burgers, wraps, and fish plates, alongside fuller dinner mains such as curried goat, crispy fried pork, and breaded shrimp. Sides round out the plates with staples like banane pézé, fried breadfruit, jasmine rice, and garden salad, simple, satisfying combinations that suit both casual meals and sit-down dinners.

The bar side is just as important as the kitchen. Fig Leaf pours tropical cocktails (including a signature Hurricane), along with wines and cold beers, often promoted with happy-hour specials and an easy lounge vibe. Desserts like island ice-cream flavours, think soursop, coconut, and pistachio, add a sweet finish.

With full-day dining (breakfast, lunch, dinner, plus light fares), late opening hours on weekends, and a layout that works well for small groups, Fig Leaf has become a go-to for private limes, birthday dinners, business meet-ups, and date nights. Reservations and ordering ahead are available by phone/WhatsApp, making it a convenient, slightly tucked-away venue where you can eat well, sip something smooth, and linger as long as you like.
