After making reservations and picking out what all ten of us wanted for dinner, we viewed the beautiful island of Anegada. When we returned from a wonderful day, we where happily greeted to a wonderful staff and amazing view. I can not say enough about the lobster. The best in BVI. This is a trip well worth it. The sail... More

I've eaten in several restaurants on Anegada and Potter's By The Sea is my favorite. The staff are warm, accommodating, and friendly. The grilled lobster is to die for and comes with veggies, salad, and rice/potatoes. If you're lucky Sam, the chef, will sing for you.

As always the food and environment was awesome. The staff really go out of their way to make sure that you are welcomed and that you have lots of fun. Sam, the manager truly welcomes the guests in a very unique way and you leave having made friends with all of the great people who work there.

Simple yet amazing: this restaurant is very much on the beach, so the "floor" is sand, the "kitchen" a very visible set of old oil drums on real fires. Just come from your moored boat by dingy, tie up, and walk a few yards on a jetty, and you're there. Probably best not to dress up. Lobsters are amazing (so... More

On Anegada all the restaurants serve about the same thing; Caribbean lobster and fresh seafood. We usually go to Potter's because it's a fun bar scene with good music playing. Most of people we take order the lobster, but I usually order whatever fish is fresh and it's always cooked very nicely. Highly recommend Potter's.

Visited Potters and want to go back. The atmosphere is relaxed with music playing in the background and the waves gently lapping at the shore. The tables are partly on a wooden boardwalk and partly on the sand. When the tide is high the water touches your feet. The bar has graffity all over the walls and posts. The bar... More

Our first trip to Anegada, landed us at Potters. We had the lobster that was a bit tough but the host Sam made up for it in entertainment. He was a live-wire and interacted with everyone as if we were long lost friends. He sang, danced and was more than generous with the drinks. I would recommend stopping by for... More

This was our 5th trip to Anegada, but first visit to Potters. He and his staff provided excellent service and the lobsters were great too. To be honest, I've never had a bad lobster on Anegada, but some are more tender than others, and this was at the top of the list. We will definitely go back.

The views are incredible here, the food, not so much. They are known for their lobster dinners as are most of Anegada's restaurants. The lobster we had was overcooked and tough. The island rice was bland, but the carrots were oh so good and sweet. The service was good, but not great. The drinks were cold and refreshing. The grouper... More

This one of the coolest places on Anegada especially after sunset. The food is outstanding, Potter himself was there and he along with Sam were extremely hospitable!
