The Barry

Kevin ? Mr Dennis ?

It’s had many names (and menus) over the years. Last season it was Le Refuge, before that Sky Bar, next season, who knows?

It’s below Bonito, near the bottom of the hill. My recollection is that the Casa St Barth (or whatever its name is this season) nightclub is either next to it or below it. I haven’t been in either establishmen in decades.

Owner ?

 

[KevinS]

Good question. Years ago there was a rumored association with Nikki Beach management. I have no idea if that was true, or what the story is today.

A fondue place in the tropics seemed like a stretch to me.
Guess my intuitions not far off.

Oh dear! A venue to celebrate a hedonistic art of living . . . where gastronomy meets nocturnal elegance. Does “vulgarity” come to mind for anyone else?

and open until dawn.....

I remember the aggravation survived by Baz Bar for late night action. Interesting change of direction.

Yea, that word jumped out at me too -- like who in the world does "hedonistic" appeal to (even if one lives such a lifestyle)?

"The new heartbeat of Gustavia"

Oh, my. A rather sanguine assessment, n’est-ce pas ?

I don't buy it ("new heartbeat"). I expect that it'll be another one-season "wonder." But, the Annie Famose group apparently has the €€€ to keep trying. (Why do I think that there must be a tax "angle" to its efforts?) It'll attract a small crowd for a short period of time . . . maybe that's all that's needed for the ROI.

You mean they won't be around when we visit in May??? Bummer, sun over Flamands wakes us up early, so I was hoping we could catch "last call"

I think you'll have to set your alarm!
