The Rig Restaurant and Lounge





The Rig Restaurant and Lounge is conveniently located on South Trunk Road La Romaine, San Fernando. This place has a huge floor (inside) consisting of dining area, bar area and a small stage for live performances. Their cuisine includes mainly Chinese and local influences.  We had the steam shrimp wantons in garlic and pepper sauce and butter fried mushrooms (first time I had this item), both was delectable. Ambiance is spectacular, seating options are plentiful and patrons can choose from outer deck, upper deck, dining table, booth or bar. 

Drinks include popular cocktails, scotch, rum, beer, vodka, wine, gin, tequila, brandy and liqueurs, additionally a wide selection of non alcoholic drinks is available. For the smokers Hookah is available. Karaoke is Tuesdays, live entertainment every Friday (both local and regional artistes). Televisions are sufficient however due to the size you may have to get a better seat to view a match, I saw a large projector screen so maybe when matches are played it is shown on the screen.  The Rig  is ideal for after work 'limes' and watching sports. They are open Mondays- Saturdays 11am -till and Sundays and Public Holidays from 4pm- till.

Double H Recreational Club (Economy)

Image
Double H Recreational Club is located at Southern Main Road Cunupia, if proceeding towards Chin Chin Junction in a Southernly direction from Warrenville side it is directly opposite the savannah on your right side (this is before the Cunupia Police Station). I took my first drink of hard liquor in this bar (White Oak: BTW I drink mostly beers now). Parking is sufficient though patrons usually park on the savannah side and walk across when their front park is full. Ambiance is good enough for a economy bar, it has an extra large televsion screen looks like 72 inches I don't think they ever had any cutters, maybe boil channa a couple of times. But when you have a chinese restaurant next door you are not obligated to sell any cutters (this is a smart move), get high first and then to the restaurant to eat.  Seating is sufficient with tables located both outside and inside. When seated outside, you have the savannah as a good view and in the night the lights in savannah automa

Steel Restaurant and Lounge

Image
Steel Restaurant and Lounge is situated in South Park Mall San Fernando. This restaurant is probably the most recently opened sports bar in Trinidad. Their cuisine include American, West Indian, Chinese and Italian dishes. Approaching the entrance, the bouncers were routinely checking patrons identification cards (LOL) and then I remembered its summer vacation. The upstairs (deck) is huge with open air seating, we visited on a Friday night, so it was packed. Music was pumping, televisions screens were sufficient, you had the option of dining inside or a more quiet experience inside: which had a full restaurant.  Ambiance was above average: design and layout. The seating accommodation was substantial, tables were placed at specific locations on the outside deck for those which chose to stand. Steel boasts a wide variety of both local and international beers and hard liquors, the wrap around bar was the highlight (in my opinion). We had the pepper chicken and spicy chicken alf

CHAQUACABANA BEACH RESORT

Image
Chaquacabana beach resort is located at LP165, Western Main Road, Diego Martin (More accurately, drive to tip of chaguaramas before the army base on the left side). It is a beach resort, in which you have to be a member to enter but I told them we were having drinks by the bar area ONLY. This is absolutely not a sports bar with not ONE television by the bar. But I can guarantee the view is beyond words at this bar. The bar area was small with seating for about 10 guests but AGAIN THE VIEW .   As you can see that is the view from inside the bar area when looking outwards. On the deck there are chairs, tables and umbrellas along with the kitchen area. All the yatchs, fisher folks, ships and cruises were in full view. Clouds soon came and became gloomy but in an hour all cleared and the sun came out in full radiance. Music was electronic dance music (more geared towards an international vibe rather than local), but we requested some spanish music and they changed it (we were t
