We were coming back from Tortola and decided to stop in there for a drink after the ferry ride. the Hospitailty was fantastic especially Michael ! We did not eat there however, but we did notice a lot of locals eating there before catching the ferry. Hopefully next time we can eat there.

Love eating at Petit Pump Room when I can get to St. Thomas. I especially enjoy their fried fish with plantain, fungi, etc. Another local dish I thoroughly enjoy is their Kalaloo; which is a spinach and fish type chowder and is also served with fungi. Their local drinks include passion fruit and tamarind beverages. The sea breezes flows right... More

Our friend who is a local resident drove us to this restaurant when we asked to visit a restaurant that had authentic St. Thomas food, as well as traditional items. As soon as we reached the top of the stairs, we were pleasantly greeted and shown to a table. The view was great. There were four of us and two... More

This is an old standby. Good food. Always have to go there during trips to St. Thomas. You have to try their rotis. Close to the ferry dock if traveling to BVI. Conveniently located if staying on Veterans Highway or just want a quick bite before catching a flight.

While waiting for our ferry to Tortola, my husband and I were in vacation-mode and happy to have somewhere convenient to eat and grab a drink. Our table had a wonderful view, but we were disappointed with the quality of food and drinks. I know the islands are known more for their rum-based drinks, but my husband was in the... More

After arriving at the ferry dock and checking in for the early ferry to the West End we always go upstairs to the Petite Pump Room. As usual we had good service, a nice breakfast, and a relaxing wait for the ferry to load. The PPR is something we look forward to in St. Thomas.

Ate at the petite pump room recently and must say that I enjoyed the food and the view of the harbor. I recommend eating outside, if the temperature is not too high. I thought the service was okay, but the server did not really check on our party after we received our food. Also, it took a while to get... More

We stopped in here before catching our seaplane back to St. Croix. We only had about 20 minutes to feed 6 people. The made us delicious wraps to go in about 10 minutes and fabulous drinks while we waited. Not to mention the staff was great and so much fun. Make sure you do a fireball shot while you're there!

We stopped in at the Petite Pump Room for breakfast, and missed by a few minutes. So, we dove in to the lunch menu instead and really enjoyed the food. The plantains were fried just right, the conch fritters were spicy. Limited vegetarian offerings for my picky vegetarian daughter. The atmosphere was great, watching the seaplanes and ferries arrive.

This past December I visited St. Thomas U.S. Virgin Islands and also the quiet British Virgin Islands. Above the terminal (dock) for the seaplane/ferry service there is a restaurant called the Petite Pump Room. I decided to have lunch while I waited for the ferry to Tortola at what I expected to be a basic burger joint. Much to my... More
