Kiwanis Park fish fry and daiquiri stand (Matthew Town)
20° 56.5′ N · 73° 40.4′ W
The downtown park is Matthew Town's social hub: a daiquiri stand on weeknights, a Thursday-evening kick-off to the weekend, and a weekend fish fry with booths selling fried fish, jerk pork and chicken.
Practical
Coordinate from the Ministry of Tourism listing. Listing: weeknight daiquiri stand serves steak, fish and conch snacks and fritters with frozen drinks; locals gather early Thursday evening with DJ or piped music; weekends the park becomes a fish fry (fried fish dinners, jerk pork and chicken, peas and rice, macaroni and cheese). It is also the venue for the Inagua Heritage & Salty Festival and Seafood Fest. The After Work Bar (yellow single-storey building) is nearby. Cash only.
