I am extremely disappointed with The Chimney. I have attempted to dine here on four separate occasions, each time making sure to check their Google listed operating hours beforehand. I planned my visits accordingly, only to arrive and find the restaurant closed every single time.
It’s incredibly frustrating and unprofessional for a business to display certain trading hours online and consistently fail to abide by them. As a customer, one expects a basic level of reliability — especially when making the effort to support a local establishment. Unfortunately, The Chimney has repeatedly shown a complete disregard for their patrons’ time and trust.
Given my experiences, I cannot in good conscience recommend The Chimney to anyone. If you are looking for a reliable and welcoming dining experience, I strongly suggest visiting Spices of India instead. They have consistently proven to be open, accommodating, and offer excellent service — everything The Chimney unfortunately lacks.
Save yourself the disappointment and choose a restaurant that values...

I decided to try the chicken biryani, while my wife opted for the curry shrimp. I must say, my spicy chicken biryani was absolutely delicious and packed with flavor.

Despite these minor drawbacks, the taste of both dishes was undeniably amazing. In fact, if we were staying longer, we would definitely have returned for another dinner. Overall, we left The Chimney feeling very satisfied with our...
Read moreThis is one of the best Indian restaurants in Antigua! It is a family run business and the owners are on the floor with tge staff and ensuring that everything is great every step of the way. As it was my first time there, I asked for recommendations and I can genuinely say that EVERYTHING tasted great! The atmosphere is relatively casual, but you can dress up a bit and not feel out of place. If you want to have a quiet and romantic night, first check to see if there is a private event going on upstairs, as the sound from the upstairs hall does carry. A nice plus is that the restaurant is fully air conditioned, so you can escape the Caribbean heat if necessary or feel comfortable if you have dressed up and are wearing a jacket. There is usually adequate parking available and the entrance is wheelchair accessible. Great food, great people, I am...
