One of the coolest bars in New York has officially opened its doors in Jamaica.
Miss Lily’s, the Jamaican eatery from Manhattan, has opened a new outpost at the hip Skylark Negril Beach Resort.
The menu is focused on Jamaican specialties and “beach” cuisine.
The newest Miss Lily’s has retained its music focus, with a speaker stack bar, a DJ booth and a wall covered in landmark 70s and 80s album covers.
The menu is the brainchild of chefs Andre Fowles and Adam Schop, with locally-sourced dishes from fresh fish to organic fruits and vegetables.
The centerpiece is a hand-built jerk BBQ smokehouse.
Music is an essential part of the story at Miss Lily’s.
Miss Lily’s, which gained fame in New York as much for its nightlife as its food, will have regular parties on Wednesdays and Saturdays, with a full-service bar including a vast collection of rums.
It’s a big addition to Skylark, which injected new energy into Negril when it debuted last year.
