Pizza Boys - St Kitts
Big, affordable Caribbean-style pizza that locals actually queue for
Why Go
Every island has one pizza spot that locals defend like family — on St. Kitts, it's Pizza Boys. This Caribbean fast-food favorite serves up massive, wallet-friendly pies from its Frigate Bay outpost, and the line of Kittitians waiting at the counter on a Friday night tells you everything you need to know.
The Experience
Don't come expecting candlelight and wine lists — Pizza Boys is a counter-service, grab-your-box-and-go operation, and that's the charm. The Frigate Bay location sits a short walk from the resort strip and several hotels, making it the default late-night and beach-day fuel stop for visitors and locals alike. It gets genuinely busy, especially on weekends, with a steady churn of families, liming groups, and hungry beachgoers. The vibe is casual and unfussy: order at the counter, wait for your number, and either squeeze into a seat or carry your pie out toward the water. Service is brisk rather than chatty — this is a volume operation — but the pizzas come out hot, enormous, and cheap by Frigate Bay standards.
What to Try
The pizzas are the whole point: generously sized pies that run from a classic margherita and pepperoni through to Caribbean-leaning topping combos you won't find at a chain back home. A large pie comfortably feeds a group and costs less than a single resort entrée. Wings and sides round out the menu for anyone pizza-averse. Ask about daily specials — they rotate unusual topping combinations at competitive prices, and that's where the kitchen has the most fun.
Insider Tip
Call ahead — seriously. Numbers are 465-0107 or 465-0109. The wait at peak times (Friday and Saturday nights especially) can stretch long if you order at the counter, but phone orders are usually ready when you arrive. Locals treat it as takeout first: grab your box and eat it on Frigate Bay beach or back at your villa rather than waiting for a table.
The Practical Stuff
Located in Frigate Bay, an easy walk from the strip and most Frigate Bay hotels, with a second presence near Basseterre at Kittian Village. Generally open from 11am daily, running to around 10pm early in the week and 11pm Friday through Sunday (Sunday openings can start later — call to confirm). Budget-friendly prices, counter service, takeout-focused, cash-friendly. About 15 minutes by taxi from Robert L. Bradshaw International Airport and 10 minutes from the Basseterre cruise port.
