My family and I went to the mine shaft based on a recomendation by our hotel. It did have a great view (get there before the sun goes down), but the service & food where TERRIBLE! The server was on her 3rd day of serving and had no idea what she was doing. So everything we asked for took forever.... more

While on Virgin Gorda we visited the MIne Shaft on three different occasions. Great food, reasonable prices relatively speaking, and the best service on the island. Emily, our waitress/manager/bartender/etc., was absolutely awesome. She made us feel like a local from the very first second we were there. Sunsets were fantastic, diverse drink menu, and the Cave In is the best... more

My wife and I ate at the Mine Shaft Cafe on June 1st, 2009. We asked to get the conch fritters and our waitress told us they were out. So I ordered the conch chowder and my wife just waited for her entree. The conch chowder was truly wonderful. For our entrees we asked about the lobster special, since it... more

We love this place. Ate there three times on our last visit and will return again. The staff is fantastic and so is the food. Get there early for the sunset and enjoy! This is a winner. more

Count on a great meal-no matter what you order! Try the house cocktail, the "Cave-In," I can't tell you what's in it and after 1 you don't care you are just ready for the next. Stop at 2! Then go back the next day for another. Say hi to Emily for me, she is an awesome "go to" gal. Over... more

Ate at Mine Shaft last week. The view from the outside deck will blow you away. Make sure you get there at sunset. The food is delicious and reasonably priced. Do not miss this restaurant! more

Great location to watch the sunset and it’s entertaining to watch all the local chickens roost in the trees just off the dining deck. The dining area is open air which was really nice in the evening. Dinner menu begins at 6:00pm. $2 per person taxi ride RT from Virgin Gorda Yacht Harbor. I’ll list what our group ate along... more
