How can you go wrong with a beautiful view from a great beach eating awesome food and sipping on a dynamite drink surrounded by some great people! Angela and Lion are amazing people! I dream about the day when I can come back here! They are living the life I wish I was living. Just happy they let me be... More

We spent the day at Cockleshell back and had lunch here. The portions are HUGE and the food is very fresh. We got the fish and it came in a great sauce with rice and vegetables. It was a great meal overlooking a beautiful beach.

Picturesque beach setting with the island of Nevis across the channel. For some real local flavor excellent local food. Everyone talks about the rum punch and I can vouch for it as well. A charming little beach bar with great proprietors. Will gladly go again...

I just Love going to Lion"s for a drink. The beach is calm, the view fantastic and the punch with ground nutmeg ... Well have someone else drive afterwards!

A visit to St Kitts wouldn't be complete without a visit to Lion and Angela's bar on Cockleshell Beach. The food is tasty and beautifully presented. The atmosphere is lively but relaxed. Great punch too.

We found the Lion Rock Beach Bar when we had a day in St. Kitts. We asked the best taxi driver/tour guide on the island "Neon Deon," to take us somewhere for authentic island food. After a bumpy ride to cockleshell beach we ended up at an unassuming place (really a shack) on the beach. Lion, the proprietor of Lion... More

I went there today and as soon as I got back to my hotel room, I had to write about Lion Rock Beach Bar! First, July is the slow season in St. Kitts, and the place was very quiet. The beach is gorgeous with an awesome view of Nevis. The water was wonderful, it's just an amazing stretch of beach!... More

What to say? A Caribbean beach shack with incredible food prepared for you by Lion (no one knows his other name!!). Even my fussy other half raved about it. Lion is a gem of a person (he was unperturbed whilst I went to get some money from the car). He plays great tunes and keeps chairs that he gives as... More
