Glad you enjoyed Mark's. I mentioned the burger there. Honestly, I have never had anything there that was less than very good and the prices, service and quality are good also.

I honestly don't know about a/c but we have never felt uncomfortable there. Many places on the island do not have a/c and people continue to enjoy meals at these places.

Likewise, Leona. I don't recall if there's ac or not but we've gone to Marks Place for a Sunday lunch in the middle of the heat of the day and not been uncomfortably warm. I will also say there are a few places we enjoy that are air conditioned, but to the point where I NEEDED a sweater. Feast or famine? <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

I seem to always get what I think they call 'garlic chicken'. It's fettucine alfredo with chicken, a HUGE plate, always enough for at least two meals and delicious! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/toast.gif" alt="" />

I don't think A/C would be beneficial at Mark's Place as it is all open so the air would just escape to the outside. There are several large ceiling fans throughout the entire restaurant which do a nice job in cooling it down inside. We have been there for lunch and dinner and have never been uncomfortable dining there.

We have never felt uncomfortably warm at Mark's Place. It's really no different than most other non-a/c restaurants on SXM. Food, service, price makes it all worth it.

Sorry to say, I don't know if there is a specific children's menu but I'm thinking most likely, not. But not to worry, Mika, as Mark's is very child friendly. You will absolutely be able to find something for your five year old to enjoy. Over the years, when we traveled a lot with our grandchildren as little ones, if all else failed, even if not on the menu, most restaurants will happily fix a plate of pasta for the young ones. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

We went to Mark's yesterday for a late lunch. It was fabulous! We look forward to having the ribs every year. What a treat!! To answer a previous question. No A/C but plenty of breeze and ceiling fans. We were very comfortable even in the heat of the day.

An absolute must a Marks is their mussels. They usually only have them Thursday-Sunday. I can sit to have them every year. The Mussels and a salad is a huge meal. also the curry goat is very good

islandgem said: It is near the Grand Marche on Bush Road at the opposite end of the parking lot. As a newbee, this means nothing to mean, more specifically, there are several Grand Marche, but I don't know any road names, thank you

This is why you should get an island map when you arrive. They are available at Shipwreck Shops near the airport in Simpson Bay. Get the oversized one... it has ALL road names and is outstanding. Created by Michal Kasprowski.

That is the Grand Marche by the roundabout, next to the Burger King, and across the street from Cost U Less. It is close to Phillipsburg.
