The Best Pizza In the Caribbean
Everyone loves pizza. Why? The science is clear. Humans are attracted to foods rich in fat, salt and sugar. Throw in the fact that most toppings are packed with glutamate which literally tells our brains to get excited and our mouths to water.
In the United States, 350 slices of pizza are consumed every second, so you’re likely going to crave a tasty pie while on vacation. Fortunately, St. John has the best pizza in the Caribbean and here’s where to score yours.
Cafe Roma
Voted Best Italian Cuisine six years in a row, this one’s a no brainer. Skip the traditional ingredients and try the Signature Island Pie consisting of shrimp, mango and pineapple. This made-from-scratch eatery will lure you back for more.
Salty Mongoose Pizza & Rum Beach Bar
Coral Bay’s newest addition is getting rave reviews, offering amazing pizza with a killer waterfront view. Did we mention rum flights and garlic knots with every shot? Can’t go wrong here.
Pizzabar in paradise
This establishment describes itself as “a tiny little pizzabar in paradise serving up Boston/NY style pizza, calzone, salad, beer, wine, sangria, cocktails and more.” Clearly, many agree as they just secured the 2020 Traveler’s Choice Award from TripAdvisor!
Tap Room
Does our local brewery have more than delicious stone oven pizza on the menu? Yes, however it’s worth noting it is discounted $5 every day from 4 to 6 pm during happy hour. Try the fan favorite BBC featuring tomato-onion and bacon jam, bbq chicken, jalapenos, bbq drizzle and cilantro.
Ronnie’s Pizza
A staple in St. John since 1995, it’s easy to miss this little gem right next to Dolphin Market. They may be just known just as much for their “world famous” brownies and cookies as they are pizza. The added bonus, Ronnie’s delivers!
So embrace your addiction and pick your favorite pizza provider next time you’re on island. Or try them all, why not. There’s no reason to deny yourself a carbohydrate high, along with the added convenience of leftovers for breakfast!
