A lagoon-side seafood house near the Simpson Bay bridge. You pick your lobster from the tank, and megayachts slide past the tables on their way to the bridge.

Practical

Coordinate is the restaurant building in OpenStreetMap (Welfare Road, Simpson Bay; 2015 ground survey). Noonsite listed it as closed and rebuilding after Hurricane Irma (February 2018 update); its own website now describes it as rebuilt and gives +1 721 544 2313 (WhatsApp +1 721 580 3939). Seafood grill, bar and fish market with Maine and Caribbean lobster. Hours were not published on the pages reviewed, so call ahead. It is a short walk from the St Maarten Yacht Club dinghy dock at the bridge. Lock the dinghy: theft from Simpson Bay docks is a recurring problem.
