A
Moonrakers
Like it or not, you’ll likely end up here at some stage; it’s the sort of place that magnetises travellers. Probably because it’s a three-storey resto-bar complex that dominates the backpacker-ghetto streetscape. Food is OK, ambience is better and beer is enjoyable from the top-floor verandah.

Stuff Makers
Hotel Kamal’s rooftop terrace, complete with fairy lights, has an excellent view of the Taj from some tables, and of a tree from others. The menu has the usual unimaginative mix of Indian, Western and Chinese dishes.

C
Olive Beach
This spot duplicates the groovy Mediterranean style and deliciously authentic food of its Delhi and Mumbai (Bombay) sisters. Book ahead for the great Sunday brunch with free-flowing booze.

New Lighthouse Restaurant
The New Lighthouse is the sort of open-air seafood place autorickshaw drivers recommend because they assume this is what Port Blair tourists are looking for. Unfortunately, it’s breezy and open air because it’s kind of falling apart, but hey, if you want fresh, whole grilled fish, lobster or crab, they got you covered here.

E
Indian Coffee House
Not as salubrious as the New Market branch, but nonetheless a top spot for a breakfast of filter coffee and scrambled eggs. The usual South Indian favourites – dosa, idli and vada (doughnut-shaped deep-fried lentil savoury) – are all here too, as are the waiters with the white fan-tailed hats.

Xanadu Restaurant
Another garden setting with a sandy floor, Xanadu is for the early riser - enjoy a breakfast fry-up or muesli from under the shade of coconut and banana palms. In the evening, over a cold beer and some crunchy pappadam, you can choose between prawns or fish curry or try one of numerous continental dishes.

Bellevue
The only one of the two restaurants in Oberoi Amar Vilas open to nonguests, Bellevue is all class and a majestic place in which to enjoy a sumptuous lunch – soups, salads, grilled meats, pasta – with a Taj view through the large windows.

Sunrise
Sunrise does a breakfast of champions, plus home-cooked Indian and several Italian and Swiss dishes for the homesick traveller. There are only six tables so arrive early. The delightful Shashi runs spicy cooking lessons in the downstairs kitchen.
