For more than thirty years, the food and atmosphere at Hibernia Restaurant & Art Gallery have reflected our life in Anguilla and our annual travels through Asia. Our location in Island Harbour gives us access to the best and freshest local seafood. "My cuisine has been described by some as eclectic, but I would prefer the term personal. As a French chef, my respect for French culinary values never fades, and I enjoy blending them with my latest discoveries."

Each winter we spend three months travelling, usually beginning in France for wine tastings with our favourite winemakers. Their wines are served in the restaurant and are also available for retail. See our wine list and cellar for the bottles Mary Pat brings back from France each year. She is always happy to share her knowledge and help with a special wine choice. In Asia we search for art to ship home, and we keep an eye open for new products and spices to weave into the menu. Recent finds include Kampot pepper from Cambodia, Bolaven plateau coffee from Laos for our ice cream, pickled tea leaves from Myanmar, Sacha Inchi nuts, and natural jaggery for a new ice cream flavour.

Before your visit

Hibernia is open on Tuesdays for lunch from 12:00 to 13:30 and dinner from 19:00 to 21:00. We recommend reserving ahead, especially during the winter season. Island Harbour is a short drive from most of Anguilla, and we are happy to help with transport when you book a table.

CHEF RAOUL

Raoul trained in classical French kitchens before bringing his craft to Anguilla in 1987. He works closely with local fishermen and growers, then shapes each dish around what arrives fresh that day. The result is food that feels French at its core, with Thai, Japanese, and other Asian notes woven in from decades of travel.

the dining room

The dining room opens onto sea views and our sculpture garden. Tables sit beside the Balinese water pool, with art on the walls and soft evening light across the harbour. It is an intimate setting for a long lunch or a relaxed dinner.

We keep guest favourites on the menu while Raoul continues to add new dishes shaped by our annual travels and the season's catch. Lunch and dinner service is on Tuesdays. See what is cooking this week on our menu page.

The art gallery reflects our personal taste: paintings, sculpture, hand-made silver jewelry, and antiques gathered over years of travel. Pieces range from modest to investment-level, and many guests browse before or after dinner.

ORPHANAGE PROJECT IN MYANMAR

In 2009, while travelling through Myanmar, we stumbled upon a destitute orphanage. The monk in charge explained that many of the children had been orphaned when Cyclone Nargis killed more than 100,000 people in 2008. Our hearts went out to them, and we decided to start fundraising through Hibernia to help. We committed ourselves to an annual trip to spend time with the children and bring them 100% of all funds collected. Unfortunately the money raised has never been enough, and their living conditions were becoming unsanitary and dangerous. It was most fortunate that in 2019, while on vacation in Anguilla, Jerry and Mary Ann O'Halloran came to dine at Hibernia and learned about our work. Upon returning to the USA, they helped us set up our project at The Boston Foundation by hosting it through their Family Foundation. They committed to funding the setup and administration fees so 100% of donations go to Pylone Chantha Orphanage, which is now recognised as a 501(c)3 tax deductible charity. Donate through The Boston Foundation

It is now our dream to raise funds for urgent repairs to their home. Your generous contribution will help sustain the children, improve their living conditions, and meet their most pressing needs.
