Bugaloo’s Conch Crawl

is a popular island cuisine restaurant located on Five Cays Beach’s turquoise waters. The restaurant serves a variety of local, Caribbean, and seafood dishes and frequently hosts live music and entertainment in the evenings. Their rum punch is a well-known favorite drink, and they’ve evolved into a tourist attraction, with live entertainment at times. Bugaloo’s is one of the few restaurants on Providenciales that has tables on the beach and in the water. Bugaloo’s main selling point is the atmosphere, with outdoor dining under coconut trees overlooking the sea.

Bugaloo’s serves lunch and dinner only (no breakfast) and has a popular wine and rum bar. Their menu is heavily influenced by Turks and Caicos and Caribbean cuisines, with many conch dishes and local fish like red snapper on the menu. There’s cracked conch, conch salad, conch fritters, fried, grilled, blackened, and steamed fish, and classic sides like peas and rice, coleslaw, and baked mac and cheese. Their signature dessert is rum cake made with locally blended Bambarra Rum. Other types of seafood, such as shrimp and lobster, are also available. Bugaloo’s was founded in 1994 and was originally located on Blue Hills Beach before moving to Five Cays. Stanley Roots, a local musician and Reggae artist, frequently performs at Bugaloo’s, usually during the day.

    Went here for a mom and daughter lunch. The food was really disappointing. Starting with the good: The staff was attentive and friendly. Drinks were well made and the atmosphere was beautiful eye-catching. It was a very slow lunch and staff didn't rush us off after eating. We had the conch fritters for starters- A+. I had the fried shrimp w/ onion rings and a side of macaroni. The shrimp and onion rings had no taste. Could tell it was frozen and just battered. The macaroni was salty. My mom ordered the grouper. She's knowledgeable about fish and knows she wasn't served grouper. She had the salty macaroni as a side as well.

    We had an amazing meal of Lobster and Grouper. The Vibe was awesome, it's right on the beach. Our server was Alexander; he was very kind, very prompt, very Demure. I highly recommended this establishment on your next visit to Provo, Turks and Caicos

    We cannot speak more highly of Bugaloo’s. It was the best meal we had on the island. The atmosphere was fantastic with the most beautiful views and music. Maria, the waitress, was one of the kindness humans we have met on holiday. And Alexandro, when out of his way to make our honeymoon dinner beyond special! We will be back for sure.

    I love the scene here and the water dining. Beautiful use of space. I got an ad first day in provo about this place and had to come see. While the shorelines are not as clean as the ads, it's a lovely place.I got a fried fish sandwich and a passion fruit punch.The sandwich came disassembled with optional ketchup and pepper on the table. I think the fish could take some salt and pepper before frying. It was very tender and though. If you get this... just add a lot of their pepper sauce (it's not very strong so a lot will do).The punch, They stayed from Jamaica and add that passion fruit... I didn't taste nothing. So that was a bum for me.Jamaican music, Island breeze and a decent sandwich, the visit wasn't bad.It got a bit breezy (Chris Brown lol) then rainy though (not in their control) so be mindful of the time of year you visit and what's happening with the weather... otherwise you'll be eating sand.

    Fantastic food. My wife and I never imagined we'd love conch so much. The Conch Sampler is absolutely the way to go! The burger was also great and an easy recommend. Gorgeous atmosphere right on the beach.
