Andrea’s Take Away

Salem, Montserrat

Some of the best food you will find on the island. We never miss multiple stops at Andrea’s for incredible food and company. Everything from BBQ, jerk pork and chicken, to local dishes like bull foot soup. A trendy spot popular with tourists and locals alike, it is also a great place to catch the sunset with a great meal and drinks.

I really should have more photographs of the food options, but I have a hard time venturing away from the jerk chicken!
