Start Your Morning Right: Joan’s Famous Empanadas at Sugar & Spice Snack Bar in Great Harbour

A Hidden Gem in Great Harbour

Tucked just steps from the ferry dock in a bright pink building, Sugar & Spice Snack Bar is the kind of place you might miss if you’re not looking for it—but you’d seriously regret that.

Wake Up to Empanadas—Delivered to Your Boat!

Look for the Smiles in the Bay If you’re moored or anchored in Great Harbour, keep an eye out in the early morning for two grinning grandsons cruising the bay in their dinghy. They’ll pull up with a box of hot, fresh empanadas that smell like heaven.

What’s in These Magical Pockets of Joy? Joan’s empanadas are the stuff of legend. Crispy on the outside, warm and savory on the inside. The most popular fillings? Chicken and vegetarian—but she gets creative. At just $6 each, they’re easily the best-value breakfast in the BVI.

Can’t Catch the Dinghy? Head to the Pink Building

If you miss the delivery crew, swing by their Sugar & Spice storefront right next to the ferry dock in Great Harbour. Just look for the pink building and follow the smell of fresh-baked goodness.
