DiannaInVA Posted January 15, 2008 #1 Share Posted January 15, 2008 We'll be docked in Philipsburg, St. Martin in April from 10 am to 11 pm. Are there restaurants at the pier? I can't find any sun set excursions there; I guess most ships leave before then. Even if I couldn't get a nice excursion, I'd like to eat dinner out since we'll be there until 11. However, I don't want to have to take a taxi to get to a restaurant. How safe is the port after dark? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travelax Posted January 19, 2008 #4 Share Posted January 19, 2008 For dinner I would get out of Phillipsburg either by renting a car for a day or using a taxi and head to Simpson Bay or Grand Case for dinner. Grand Case has great French food and a restaurant row where you can eat any place and not go wrong. Some even will accept dollars for Euros one for one(the French side uses Euros) Don't drive there though since the wine is very good and the roads are winding. We ate in California. We stayed in Simpson Bay and ate at several restaurants there. Mostly fresh seafood. We spent a week on the island and enjoyed it immensely , but Phillipsburg was for shopping.

nsbee Posted January 19, 2008 #5 Share Posted January 19, 2008 There are a few very nice restaurants in Philipsburg if you don't want to get out of town. Le Escargot Antoine's both french and on front street Fusion..on front Street next to the Sea Palace Hotel. Chesterfield's..at Great Bay marina Greenhouse restaurant..more casual bar atmosphere with decent food Passagrahhan Hotel.... Holland House Hotel both have nice food and are right on front Street The front Street restaurants also border the Boardwalk by the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiannaInVA Posted January 20, 2008 Author #6 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Thanks! Though since I'm going to be there by myself, I won't be renting a car or taking a taxi after dark. But I figure if there are places near the dock there should be a lot of people there and it should be fairly safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
