See the attached screenshot.

Would be interested to hear if anyone stops by and what the experience is like!

Thanks for the update -- sounds cool. I'm thinking that they hope to steal some of the superyacht business from the Bitter End.

I wish they'd re-open the Fat Virgin Cafe. And the trail between Biras and BEYC.

Dan cheers

seriously.... sometimes I dream about the BrieLT sandwich. And the split pea fritters with the homemade mango chutney were to die for

I don't see any of this new stuff mentioned on their web site: https://www.biras.com/

Maybe they just haven't had a chance to update it.

Seems like the new place is open! Restaurant is called "The Mangrove", and early reviews are that food and service were both "top-notch".

Sadly, as of last year I am no longer actually a "VirginGordaResident" as my wife and I relocated back to the states.

Excited to try The Mangrove out when we are back on VG for 2 weeks in May to visit!

They say "if you have to ask, you can't afford!"

A burger and fries will set you back 46 bucks! Add a glass of wine and you will need to tap the Home equity line of credit!

Hard to beat a good cheeseburger, fries or potato salad and a couple of ice cold Red Stripes....toes in the sand at Smuggler's Cove at Patricia's..all for $20! You can bounce over the hill to Long Bay for their $37 burger or have sushi now upstairs..dont know the $$$.A great burger can be had at "Tramonti' The Sugar Mill beach bar.big , juicy and all the works for $18.For something different..try their Donner Kebab..lamb, cucumber and salad with yoghurt dressing in pita bread for just $10!
And the burgers at "Stout's Lookout" with a spectacular view of CGB are definitely worth trying..as long as the place isnt jammed with badly parked safari buses and picture snapping tourists who dont spend $ there!

Thanks Mal. These all sound great. We used to spend a couple of days land-based on Tortola, either pre-charter or post-charter. We haven't done that for a long time, but you're making me think it's about time.

There are some very nice photos of Stoutt's accessible from Google Maps.

Dan cheers
