We went here while we were at the ferry station thinking we were just going to grab a subpar meal, but it actually ended up being the best meal we had on the island. I ordered the vegetarian plate which came with a large assortment of unique vegetarian items. I really enjoyed it, as did my sister! We also had some really nice drinks. The restaurant is right on the water which is nice, except for the fumes from the boats at times. My sister got a hamburger and my niece got chips and salsa. The chips and salsa looks pretty basic. Service was really nice and the crowd was nice and they let us store our suitcases while we ate. read more

The food is just ok in my opinion, the service was subpar but with friendly faces. My biggest problem with this place is our waiter had the dirtiest fingernails. I'm they are very conscious about the face mask and Covid, they don't say anything about the staff hygiene. I can say the patio dining is awesome in it self read more

I wish I had pictures of the food but it was too scrumptious to resist! We had the conch chowder, the pinacoladas, the tuna salad sandwich, the Cobb salad and the butter sautéed conch! FIVE stars all the way around. It was absolutely incredible and we ate every single bite of our food. Being a foodie, I appreciate good food and this place was outstanding including the service.

Petite Pump Room - Conche in garlic butter sauce with those famous fungi - Caribbean Near Me - St. Thomas, Virgin Islands

I heard a lot about this restaurant. All good things! When my husband who is an executive Chef went. We were disappointed. The food was not good. Had the whole snapper creole. They basically fried the snapper and dumped creole on it. Ruined the fish. We had the conch in butter sauce not a wow factor. Our whole meal was $120 for lunch. We should have a wow factor and we are locals! Will not return. Don't waste your money.. read more

Perfect place to grab a bite, keep cool, and relax after you get off the ferry and before you go to the airport. Perfect breakfast options, tasty drinks, and a nice breeze flowing through the whole time. Great customer service and lots of seating. Keep climbing that ramp all the way to the top! read more

The food is terrific! I love the location, right on the water. The service is good. The owners are very nice, pleasant and professional, unlike too many other restaurants on the island. I definitely recommend this place and plan on returning as often as I could. read more

Amazing food and even better drinks! Such a friendly and welcoming staff! Great view doesn't hurt either. The mahi mahi, oxtail, and red snapper was perfection!!! And they make the pain killers better than anyone else. If you like spicy ask for Mikes spicy Bloody Mary!! read more

It's the best place to go for food while you are waiting for your ferry. It's located on the 2nd floor above the ferry terminal. I had the Saltfish breakfast special which is served only on Friday and Saturdays. It's the local yokel kind of food with okra, spinach, some kind of shredded fish, and a hard boiled egg. It's an interesting kind bucket list kind of dish worth trying once, but not really a recommendation. The breakfast dishes being served to other tables look spectacular for a basic bar restaurant. Pancakes, omelets, all look like you were at IHOP. Delish. The service was good and our waitress was a long time pro it seems. read more

Apparently one of the last local-owned restaurants in downtown. Delicious brunch, incredible view of Frenchman's cove, and a wonderful staff. Couldn't recommend this place enough. read more

Decided to take a side trip to St Thomas. While waiting for my seaplane to Tortola I needed some lunch and pain relief in the form of Painkillers. I had the blackened chicken served with plantains rice and peas (beans) and carrot salad. It was fresh and tasty. Served with a local hot sauce. Use sparingly! The view was spectacular and the service by Mary was excellent. read more

Great food. Friendly staff. Fun to watch the seaplanes take off. I needed 22 more characters to post review.

Food: 0 stars: I ordered the thick french toast, it came out as burnt toast. This folks was not french toast. when I presented it to what appeared to be management she quickly offered me something something else. I declined the offer because 1. I already waitwd 30 minutes for this burnt shit, i wasnt waiting another 30 minutes for anything else! 2. Judging by my ol man's food and the people around us, it all looked bad and unappetizing. I was puzzled as to why it was described in the menu as thick cut french toast and she couldnt give me an answer on why that plate of garbage was presented to me like i wasnt going to question it. My ol man ordered the banana pancakes and they looked like something of the freezer section. He offered me a bite and I refused because they didn't look appetizing. Price point: 2 stars: breakfast will run you $10.50 on average. The mimosas are good but not $7 good especially when you can get a carafe in some places for $7-$10 being I wanted to try it I splurged. Customer service: 1 stars: our waitress wasn't very attentive besides doing the basic responsibilities of her job title. Again I noticed with black people on this island they feel they don't need to deliver great customer service if you are a person of color but for Caucasians they go above and beyond. So if you are caucasian, asian, or east indian you will be treated good lol if you are african american or Latin FORGET IT! Im giving 1 star due to management trying to accommodate me. They move slow a.f. here so if you don't have 1.5 hours to blow on basic breakfast don't come here. Overall: I would not come here if the food was for free. I basically paid for $3.50 for bacon, $3 for bottled water, and $7 for a mimosa. My ol man's food was $11.50. $30 for a bunch of nothing smh I will never come back her. Too bad they don't have waffle house on this island. If I wanted to live on this island and deal with their constant stupidity I could easily open up a restaurant and TAKE EVERYONE'S BUSINESS BECAUSE THAT'S HOW WELL I COOK AND HOW GREAT MY CUSTOMER SERVICE WOULD BE! don't come here unless you are desperate, these 4 star review are lies! read more

Petite Pump Room - The view from the patio. - Caribbean Near Me - St. Thomas, Virgin Islands

The Petite Pump Room is the bar and restaurant on the second story of the Ferry building at Charlotte Amalie on St. Thomas. They claim they are one of the best restaurants in town, but I truly can't see tourists flocking here for a dinner out. Their main clientele seems to be the captive audience waiting for the next ferry. Which was why we were here on a Wednesday afternoon, packed-in with numerous other passengers for an hour and a half wait. There was a deck outside but no seating was available, so our small group sat inside at a corner table; still decent views here, and a breeze. We ordered drinks and filled-out our customs paperwork for the BVI, our next stop. Though the first round of drinks was quick, things slowed to a crawl after that. The staff was a bit surly and ignored our raised arms and attempts at eye contact. Finally, one of our group approached our waitress (twice) before she eventually walked over to get our food orders, plus another round (I was having Red Stripes). Most people in the group ordered sandwiches, but I opted for the conch fritters (an old favorite). Food service was slow, but we eventually all got served. Sadly, my conch fritters were some of the worst I've had; they were very oily and I saw little evidence of conch inside. Others enjoyed their sandwiches but didn't rave about them. Believe it or not, the best part about the restaurant occurred after we completed the long process of boarding the ferry. Specifically, those of us on the upper level noticed the waitresses hanging out on the restaurant deck and talking to passengers at the railing, with the occasional exchange of cash and beers. My friend P and I decided we had to get in on this action, and so of course we bought two, just cuz. By the time we finished buying these, it was becoming quite the melee as other passengers caught on. And the the ferry staff obviously delayed departure until much of this had run it's course. Hilarious. I was going to give two stars for the Petite Pump Room, but I gotta spot them an extra star for the entertainment value and last-minute brewskis. Sadly, my travelogue in the Virgin Island ends here. The islands of the BVI aren't covered by Yelp, and so I can't share the fantastic hotel we stayed at, nor the restaurants we tried, nor the Scuba shop or funky beach bar we discovered. I'll keep these memories in my brain for now. read more

Outstanding breakfast and view in the morning is impeccable. Could not possibly ask for more. Service with a smile.

The food and drinks are good but the service was chaotic. We had a table of 9 and only half our orders were taken so we got our food 30ish minutes apart. I myself was only given my drink after my food was half eaten. If the service was good the place would be great. read more

We came straight to petite pump room right from our flight and boy did we hit the jackpot! Mike and Judy are serving up decadent meals accompanied by pain killers that'll give you a run for your money. The Caribbean sauce that Mary recommended hit the spot like a warm blanket for my soul. We cannot recommend you stop by enough times. It seriously was the best start to a vacation that we could've asked for. read more

Absolutely incredible authentic Caribbean. Joan was fantastic!!! Cannot recommend enough

Mediocre food and terrible service. Don't go here unless you've got a lot of time to just sit around. Waited 30 minutes for server to return to table so we could tell him to bring our check. Waited another 15 for check itself. I gave it two stars because sitting on the deck was very nice. Nothing else was nice, though. read more

Food is very low quality. Service is slow. Subpar drinks, only reason i would ever come here again is if i was forced at gunpoint. Ordered a cheese omelet and it came out cold, chewy and flavorless. This restaurant is anything but 4 stars do not recommend if you have a refined palette. read more

It's been years since I'd been there but thank goodness some things don't change! I enjoyed the Ole Wife, favorite local dish. Service was spot on and it was a great lunch with good friends. They even surprised me for my birthday with their Special Pound Cake - served warm. Oh, I can't forget to mention the view of the harbor! You sit and sip (and sip again) and just enjoy the afternoon. Wish I was back there now. read more

Very close to Windward Passage Hotel. It's upstairs of the ferry terminal. We were a group of 8 and were seated out on the balcony. Wonderful bay views!
