Seafood is the order of the day. From upscale restaurants in Port Blair to local dhabas on Havelock, fish abounds. Be prepared to pay a little more for good fish and seafood dishes than for standard Indian food, because it’s totally worth it.

Basic Indian food is also available, and is cheap in most of the small dhabas. Restaurants in resorts on Havelock can also whip up a few Western dishes, but the in house restaurants are slightly expensive.

Fresh coconuts are popular and widely available. Alcohol is available in some restaurants in Port Blair and on Havelock Island but there is no pub culture.
