My husband and I were recently on vacation in Barbados. Our first week was just the two of us and the second week we had friends join us. We visited My Friend's Place on Friday January 17 because wings are our jam and Canadian comfort fare and at a buck a wing, we were sold....Fridays are also Karaoke night and I think I am a superstar after many Deputies so it was a win win....then we met the owner, who is also from Canada, at which point it then became a triple win. She is amazing and hospitable...and boy can she sing. We had so much fun there, listening to all the singers that we had to make a return visit the following friday with our friends. The wings were great, the entertainment was great, the beers are always great so we will be back and I will highly recommend this joint to anyone who asks where's the party on a Friday night! Thanks for the hospitality and the phenomenal night(s). See you next year. From Thunder Bay, Ontario, THANK YOU SO MUCH for such great nights.

I along with some workmates choose My Friends Place as a send-off for a workmate. First, it is outdoors and outside was beautiful, we had reserved our table before and was seated as soon as we got there, Rachell the Bartender makes some awesoooooooome drinks and always with a busy no matter how busy she is. Our wait staff was funny, patient and very pleasant (my group was a bit rowdy and when it came to the drink orders hmm) but not once did she showed any annoyance even if she was. The food (the chef was very accomodating seeing that what we ordered was out of season, she personally came to us and explain it was not the norm and let us know it might be a wait. We expected that we would have hours waiting but was gladly surprise when our full order was placed before us in about 30 mins) the desserts were sinful. The live singers were very interactive and funny. Overall it was a great night that everyone could afford before payday. Also a big thanks to Justin and Dawn owners of My Friends Place. Just let me add I am a local and we are sometimes very hard to please.

Let’s face it you’ll either love or hate St Lawrence gap. The first part of the road is all shiny steel handrails, loud and cool music. Bouncers looking after you and gorgeous bar staff too willing to take your cash. But it’s not exactly ‘real’ is it?
Surely in this country you don’t want Ibiza levels of cool and $$! You want to have a cold beer or a mojito and sit on a homemade bench?
If you’d prefer that and to spend half the amount of cash, walk through the first 400m of this street, past the churchy types on the corner who will hand you a flyer you drunk sinner, then on past more bright bars full of wide eyed tourists. Keep going, be brave, then those bars stop and it looks almost residential. 300 more metres to go past street food vendors and the smaller bars appear. My Friends Place is there with a few others and is ideal. Rough and ready with clumsy singers but far more of what you want from the island.

Great meal and drinks. We ordered samosa apps, and grilled shrimp. The grilled potatoes were excellent as well. Customer service was outstanding. I had questions on one of their meals that came with a spicy sauce, they brought me a small sample to try before ordering, not many vendors will do that. It was our first night in St. Lawrence Gap and in Barbados and our meal and customer service set the bar for the rest of our trip.

It’s outdoors outside of a small bar/kitchen. Again, I think because of their happy hour and live music (singer is not great) they draw people in but the food and service and nothing more than okay. We had the Salmon and the chicken - both of which were fine. The mash was not available so we were served with cut potatoes and veggies. Not very tasty. Portion size was fine and left room for dessert.

Really lively, straightforward food which is perfectly ok. Drinks very cheap during happy hour e.g. rum and coke $7bbd for two, three Banks beers for $10bbd. The best part is the live music which gets many people up dancing. Unfortunately the two nights we were there it rained for a short time but they managed to organise a table under the shelter whilst we were eating our meal. Menu choices include chicken, burgers and wraps. Definitely worth visiting for the experience.

Have visited Barbados three times, and each time we have gone we have had drinks at My Friend's Place. Lovely atmosphere, lovely staff who greet you at the entrance and take you to the seating area. I have sung karaoke there a couple of times and its great listening to others do the same. My sister and I have had relaxing nights there sipping pina colada's during happy hour/two for one deals, and chatting with whoever is there on the night at whatever table you sit at. You can pay for drinks in Bajan dollars or US currency. We have not had a full meal at My Friends Place only nibbles like fries, but the plated food we have seen others order looks really yummy to eat. Folks rock back in their seats full from their barbecued chicken. Highly recommended if your into karaoke, good atmosphere etc. everyone brave enough to get up and sing gets applauded no matter how good or bad they are! They also have guest singers on certain nights too, I have heard two female local celebrities sing there and they were good!!! Enjoy!!!

The staff were very accommodating and managed to squeeze us in at a shared table on a busy Saturday night. We split a grilled shrimp and potato basket and 2-for-1 happy hour rum sours. The basket was delicious but not huge, and the rum sour was decent, if a bit sweet. Our dinner was good, but not inexpensive (US$35). Also, their live singer, Shernelle, was popular with the crowd and did justice to Lionel Richie's greatest hits.

We dropped in on My Friends Place on our second night in Barbados. Granted we were only in the hotel across the street, but can't believe was a great little place this is. It's a lovely little courtyard, full of tables and surrounded by gift shops (don't worry they don't come out and pester anyone).
Most nights host a live singer, one of the nights is kareoke (altough the level of some of the talent was worthy of 'The Voice')
The food is great if you're just looking for no fuss quality value. We ate here three times in total and chose a different dish each time - we weren't disppointed with any of them. Don't expect fine dining or michelin star cuisine, but do expect good wholesome local food at a reasonable price.
We met and spoke to so many people in My Friends Place, people that had never been before to people that had been going for 10 years or more. Everyone happy to join in conversation and have a great time.

Located at Dover on the west coast, this is my favourite chill spot on the island.
Good food and drinks at very reasonable prices to suit everyone’s pocket. Live music or karaoke most evening has you tapping your foot. Hosts Justin and Dawn and their team are welcoming, deliver great service with a smile and nothing is too much trouble. Bajan hospitality at its best

After many great times here this unfortunately wasn’t one of them. We called in for a meal the as food is great it’s a fun place. As I don’t drink alcohol we ordered from the server a coke, and a beer for husband she brought the beer no problem. She then said we have NO coke. No problem a sprite is fine NO sprite so ok a bottle of water then NO BOTTLES OF WATER either but she said you can have tap water. No thank-you or a pineapple juice that’s all we have. I declined the pineapple as I can’t think of anything worst than that, she asked for our food order, I said we shall not bother just pay for the beer. She moved onto next table to serve them and brought out glasses of coke. The lady who owns the bar is lovely pity she wasn’t there. She saw me look and said we have some now the server looked like she wasn’t in such a good mood. I feels a bit like if you don’t drink alcohol you are a bit of an after thought. It’s a shame it’s a cracking bar and a good night. But tap water really no thanks
But for those who don’t drink Massys supermarket sell Heineken 0% pity none of the bars do.

We arrived at 7.15 and it was happy hour, so we ordered a g&t and a rum sour and got another free. They were really delicious drinks, we then ordered some chicken and swordfish meals, the swordfish was so succulent, the best I've ever eaten. We then had the best Pina Coladas and danced to the live singer, who had an amazing voice. Thoroughly enjoyable evening, we will be going back and it was really reasonable.

Unbelievable atmosphere with fantastic staff and food. Good happy hour offers and superb drinks. The little square gets absolutely packed and cover from the occasional shower may be at a premium. But well worth the risk! Meals may take a while to arrive. but that's understandable with such pressure on a tiny kitchen - just chill out and take in the atmosphere.
