    Independence Day in Dominica! Actually, a burned out building converted into a bar. Very nice place for a beer and getting out of the rain. LOTS of different spirits for the adventurous! You should stop by!

    A very interesting selection of Rums, liquors and Lagers awaits you at this café which is very popular with locals and tourists alike. Most of the rums sold here are manufactured by Ruins and exclusively sold here. The Cafe also now serves lunches and the young friendly staff provide excellent service.

    Excellent interior. I have been a couple of times there. Don't miss it. Coming to Dominica/Roseau without drinking something there is wasted travel. Unique building without upper level, semi damaged but very charming. 10+

    Tolle authentische karibische Bar mit Livemusik und leckerem Rumpunsch. Muss man besucht haben, wenn man da im Hafen liegt.

    Wir haben das Café im Rahmen unserer Kreuzfahrt in die karibik besucht, da wir vorab viel positives gelesen haben. Es hat alle Erwartungen übertroffen. Tolles Ambiente, geniale Drinks, Livemusik und sprühnebel gegen die Hitze. Ein Muss bei jedem Besuch des Ortes.

    Coole Location nicht weit vom Schiffsanleger: Karibische Bar mit Live-Musik. Guter Rum Punsch🥃, kostet 10 US$, sollte man probieren 😃 WLAN verfügbar. (Code wird an der Theke eingetippt)

    Interessantes Gebäude, hat uns durch die Livemusik angezogen. Einrichtung speziell klasse 😀. Es war eine super Stimmung dort und wir sind tatsächlich dort versumpft und hatte so vie Spaß. Die Cocktails die besten und man kann sagen gut mit Rum vermischt. Getränk in Bambusbecher serviert. Beschwingt sind wir dann an Board 😁

    Really cool place to hang out. We didn't eat, but the decor was enough for us to have a couple beers. I'd go back again!

    Excellent place to buy home-made rum and spices. Go to the Spice Shop out back, selection of 42 rums (lime, goji, tamarind, chiwe, guava, kako, very exotic) as well as 61 teas like you've never seen before. Come here. Buy a lot.

    Great local bar with good food fairly priced. Offers free WiFi so the bar is busy at times. The bar is close to the cruise port.

    This is like no other place. The building is over 150 years old. The rim punch is served in a bamboo cup with a coconut shell lid. Fun and free wifi!

  • 4/5 Kalle W. 3 months ago on Google • 153 reviews New
    Wenn man mit minimalem Aufwand aus Resten und einer Ruine eine Bar zusammenzimmert, ist man wohl auf Dominica. Sehr urig, mit live Musik und Kellnerinnen, die nett und auf zack sind. Vorsicht beim Marijuana Rum Punch! Der scheppert so übel, dass man weder Vater noch Mutter kennt.

    Super resto bar a Roseau. Les serveuses très sympas et l ambiance au top. En prime un petit concert dans le resto...une déco très originale.Nous y sommes allés deux fois pendant notre séjour..a recommander fortement..

  • 5/5 Peter T. 11 months ago on Google • 115 reviews
    Urigste Kneipe in ganz Dominica, muss man bei einem Aufenthalt unbedingt mal besuchen. Nicht weit vom Kreuzfahrthafen bekommt man hier den besten Rumpunsch. Die Livemusik ist der Hammer.

    Amazing rum punch, $10usd but worth every penny and comes in a bamboo cup, ♻️

  • 5/5 SMG 2 years ago on Google • 77 reviews
    Really liked it. Excellent selection on local rums (+150), couldn't try them all. Excellent interior and very colourful.

    Spent a week in Dominica. Had to eat here as it’s one of the only places in Roseau open on Sunday. Prices not transparent, and even with the overcharging that was not clear (sides are extra and all charged in random amounts on each meal; i.e., fries cost 5EC more on some meals but 10EC more on others?!), we were still overcharged in the final bill. Waitress just shrugged when her math was off by 50 EC ($20 USD) from the USD total. Wouldn’t have chosen it since it’s right next to the cruise port, but trusted our hotel guide. Should not have and can’t recommend for you unless you can’t do simple math or don’t care about being hosed by untrained staff.

    Petit restaurant qui fait bar non loin de l’hôtel , au centre ville de roseaux . Petite ambiance musicale très apprécié, de bon chanteur . Les prix sont correct, les cocktails et les smoothies sont super bon .

    Sehr coole und ausgefallener Ort. Von außen wirkte es zunächst etwas abschreckend, innen sehr einladend. Ist wohl das Konzept. Sehr leckere Kokosnussmilch getrunken. Service sehr freundlich und zügig.

    Excellent souvenir, bar authentique qui reflète bien l'histoire du lieu, bon accueil, et plats variés et atypiques comme le crocodile, entre autres !

    Tourist trap. Service was terrible and charged $30 USD for some shrimp and salad.

  • 2/5 Laura H. 6 years ago on Google • 30 reviews
    Tourist trap! Made for people getting off the cruise ships and filled with them all trying to log on to the wifi! Way over priced drinks and very cheesy atmosphere. Claimed to have an exotic menu on a chalkboard but then didn't really have a food menu? If you just need a drink and a place to sit it's fine but don't go there expecting authentic experience or food.

  • 5/5 Rebecca S. 1 year ago on Google • 29 reviews
    Surprising breakfast spot! Excellent coffee (fresh roasted here) and breakfast sandwiches (egg, cheese, cucumber, tomato, lettuce, sauce, fresh bun) and fresh juice smoothies! Everything is really clean in the morning so you wouldn’t know it is a busy bar in the afternoons.

    I stumbled upon Rick Ruins Cafe during a Sunday stroll in Roseau and was pleasantly surprised. The cafe's friendly atmosphere and delicious food made it a delightful find. I was lucky to visit on International Coffee Day, which added a festive touch. The staff was incredibly welcoming, and the event itself was a lot of fun. Beyond the special occasion, the cafe's regular offerings are equally impressive. Their breakfast sandwiches are a standout, featuring fresh ingredients like egg, cheese, cucumber, tomato, lettuce, and a flavorful sauce on a soft, fresh bun. The accompanying fresh juice smoothies are a refreshing complement. If you're a coffee lover, you won't be disappointed. Rick Ruins Cafe roasts their beans on-site, ensuring a cup of coffee that's rich, flavorful, and truly satisfying. The cafe's clean and inviting atmosphere adds to the overall enjoyment of the experience. Whether you're looking for a casual breakfast spot or a place to enjoy a delicious cup of coffee, Rick Ruins Cafe is definitely worth a visit.

    Top Rock-Bar direkt am Hafen und eine absolute Empfehlung für jeden Besuch in Dominica. Ihr müsst auf jeden Fall den Rum-Punsch 🍹probieren und nehmt euch etwas Zeit mit, um das ganze Ambiente zu genießen. Mit etwas Glück ist der Laden brechend voll und ihr erlebt die Live Band, wie sie den Laden zum Beben bringt. Ein besonderes Augenmerk müsst ihr auf jeden Fall auch der Bar schenken. 🍆

  • 5/5 Monika B. 3 months ago on Google • 23 reviews New
    Urige Bar direkt am Anleger der Kreuzfahrtschiffe. Lifw Musik, Cocktails und einheimisches Bier. Witzig eingerichtet, lockere Bedienungen. Ein Besuch wert.

    feine fish wraps gegessen mit super freundlicher bedienung, ohne lange zu warten.

  • 5/5 Graeme S. 2 months ago on Google • 17 reviews New
    One of the best bars and very close to port. Live music. Plenty of seats. Great atmosphere. Very laid back approach to serving drinks. Advise to drink bottles as seems to be quicker to be served if they know that other than cocktails

  • 3/5 Pe T. 4 months ago on Google • 13 reviews
    Vorsicht ! Diese Bar liegt nicht ohne Grund sehr nah am Kreuzfahrtanleger - die Preise sind auf europäischen oder amerikanischen Niveau und damit gegenüber den lokalen Preisen um ca 4x überhöht. Wem das Ambiente diese Preise wert ist solls machen - allen anderen seien lokalen Bars empfohlen.

    I have now been in Roseau for 3 days and this place hasn’t opened at all during that time ? Does anyone know if it has closed permanently or temporarily?

😠 WORST SERVICE EVER. Rating: 1/5 stars, only because I actually received my food. The owner herself has no understanding of what customer service means. Client satisfaction is so important because it’s what keeps people coming back, and essentially, what keeps your doors open.Personally, i’m never go...
