Slates
★ 4.9 · 102 reviews English Harbour Opened 17 October 2025
Willoughby Bay's fine-dining outlier, chef-led
Colin McGurn spent years cooking at Winteringham's in England before landing in Willoughby Bay, a couple of miles east of English Harbour town. Slates opened here on October 17, 2025, and gets folded into the English Harbour dining scene despite the drive.
During Restaurant Week it's a $75 prix-fixe. The rest of the year it's à la carte, priced nearer the island's top resorts than the harbour's casual bars.

I had a lovely experience. I was the first of my party to arrive, which was 25 minutes before the reservation. However, I received a warm greeting from the staff and I was given the option to stay at the lounge/waiting area to the left, after which I was presented with the cocktail menu as I waited. I really wish to emphasize the point that the staff were very friendly and accommodating without being annoying/overbearing; they were perfect. I enjoyed the meal, enjoyed the presentation/plating, and most of all, the fish was prepared exactly to my liking. I indicated my shellfish allergy and the staff diligently explained all dishes and discussed possible alternatives to the menu to work around that issue. Appetizer, entree, dessert and a few drinks amounted to just over EC$300 per person, which was value for money when all things are considered. I highly recommend Slates for dinner if you're on that side of the island.

Upon arrival, we were welcomed into a cozy waiting area where cocktails were offered as we waited for the rest of our party. The weight staff are very knowledgeable about the dishes. Once seated, our orders were taken promptly, and the meals arrived at the right temperature — seasoned to perfection. The presentation was beautiful, allowing us to savor the dishes with our eyes before tasting. The only drawback was that the food service felt a bit slow for some of the courses, and parking is limited, which may require leaving your car on the main road at your own discretion. Overall, it was a delightful dining experience with excellent flavors and thoughtful presentation, worth visiting if you don’t mind a little patience and planning for parking.

Every dish was thoughtfully made and full of flavor. The mushroom tortellini was absolutely delicious. The English beef roast tasted very homemade, tender, comforting, rich, and flavorful. The desserts were true works of art and tasted incredible too. They were not just sweet, but had real depth and beautiful combinations of flavors. The staff was also very attentive.

We went there today and food was excellent. They were packed for Mother’s Day but staff was great. I was super impressed by the dessert. I forgot to take a picture of my dessert because I went for it right away and it was the best toffee pudding I’ve ever had.
