If you’re on the island early, you’ll smell the charcoal burning when the crew starts cooking lunch. Most of the food is on par with what you’d find at a typical picnic. As with Cookie’s, the most common complaint we hear is that the food is overcooked. Hamburgers and hot dogs are the safest bets. The ribs are hit-or-miss, and the chicken is usually on the dry side. If you find something you like, feel free to go back for seconds – just like on the ship, it’s all-you-care-to-eat on Castaway Cay.

Just like the original Cookie’s BBQ, Bookie’s Too’s seating is set of picnic tables under a roofed, open-air pavilion. The picnic tables can seat 6 to 8 people comfortably. If your family is smaller than that, you may be asked to share a table.
