“Don't even get us started on Blanchards, because we won't stop. The restaurant is beautiful and is in an idyllic location on Meads Bay. It's not possible to have an average meal here. Everything is exquisite, for both omnivores and vegetarians alike! It's run by deeply good people. Bob and Melinda Blanchard didn't waste any time to help raise money to feed families in Anguilla during the pandemic."
- Holly & Guille, guests

“We were all so blown away by your beautiful restaurant!! Where do I begin, the decor and atmosphere is so beautiful.
The food, oh the food!! Every dish was luscious. With 12 of us, we were able to sample most of the menu. The desserts (my fav!!) were heavenly.
Last but definitely not least, your staff is incredible!! Our grandson has a nut allergy. They could tell us instantly what foods he could have. So helpful and reassuring.”

“Coming to Anguilla and missing Blanchards is kind of like going to Disney and not riding Space Mountain. First of all, it's beautiful. Caribbean and elegant. The service is amazing. I love the apps and dessert the most but the main is pretty darn special as well. The best jerk on the island and rivals the best in the entire Caribbean. That good. Then dessert - oh my - the cracked coconut is a staple and as beautiful as it is good.”

“A MUST visit in Anguilla. The restaurant is absolutely exceptional. We were immersed with fantastic design, outdoor spaces and authenticity. The staff were exceptional. The food was delectable yet not overbearing. We would visit Anguilla again, just for this restaurant. Thank you Blanchards for such a positively emotional and sense awakening experience...you are a gem!”
- Andrew, guest
