hangout on the side road leading to Little Dix Bay resort. Seating is in an open-air court-
yard, and there is a stage where a band plays during high season. Thelma will serve you

rounded by the Yacht Harbour mall, this casual pub cooks up pizza, quesadillas and seared
ahi tuna salad. At night it's a fun scene, with live music on Wednesday. A lending library

www.mineshaftbvi.com
; sandwiches $15-18, mains $20-30;
lunch & dinner)
You can't beat the location, perched high on a hill overlooking the At-
lantic Ocean on Copper Mine Rd. The food is pretty good, too, including burgers (even
the veggie variety), wraps and mains like lobster in rum-lemon-cream sauce. Owner Elton
Sprauve throws a monthly full-moon party, complete with live music, warm breezes, cheap
rum punch and grilled meats. If you can't make that shindig, at least come here for a view-
tastic sunset cocktail. Kids will enjoy puttering around the mini-golf course.
