Green Island Restaurant — Restaurant in St. Clement

Green Island

1 Sentence Summary: The southernmost Michelin restaurant in the British Isles delivers a mean bacon and sausage butty too.

What’s good here? I’ve always been after visiting the restaurant, yet it’s always tough getting in. Perhaps it’s the lovely setting (looking out over La Motte/Green Island) or that it’s rather small, but most likely it’s just THAT good.

So I had to settle for a visit to kiosk - a side-venue (literally) serving all manners of beach-centred treats, ice creams etc. but most of all - sausage and bacon sandwiches!

Starting with the roll - a fresh, crisp Portuguese-style roll - you could tell you’re talking quality. Served by lovely, friendly and smily staff and with two high-quality rashers of bacon and two meaty sausages, the £5.20 price may seem steep but it’s plenty worth it.

What’s an ‘Opportunity for Improvement’? If you’re after visiting the restaurant, call well in advance (bookings are clearly essential) and note the opening hours may change depending on season.

Tell me More When I’ve managed to get to the restaurant, I’ll update the review. Until then, I’m more than happy to settle with these ace bacon and sausage butties.

Espresso was superb so I opted for an off menu Affogato. The green Island Don Pedro was tempting. A great experience . We...

Probably the worst customer service one can get. Firstly it is difficult to find restaurants around this area so people are stuck with this one. I asked if they have any sort of sandwiches and the lady (I probably the owner or manager, pretended not to understand my accent . I had to ask 4 times . She said they didn’t have but only few items for take away in the kiosco. I then went to on buy those options as there was nothing else and we had them at the beach. Upon return I wanted to have a drink sitting down at their tables. But the same lady refused my entry and said they can’t have me as they are full for lunch (see the with empty tables) I feel awful and discriminated. Shame on you ! But a horrid hospitality...
