Rick’s Cafe

Our story begins with the opening of Rick's Cafe by its founder, Richard Hershman, in April 1974.

At the time, Negril was a sleepy fishing village with little development.

Our beautiful little cliffside location was originally owned by a local doctor, the son of the first Governor General of independent Jamaica.

Rick's Cafe was the first public bar and restaurant of its type on the West End Cliffs, offering an alternative to Negril's majestic seven mile beach.

From the beginning, Rick's Cafe boasted an unrivalled view of the sunset from its naturally formed cliffs.

Over the years, visitors and locals alike have designated Rick's Cafe as Negril's premier gathering spot and our sunsets have become a Jamaican tradition.

Many of our staff have been working at Rick's Cafe for more than 35 years.

Here at Rick's we can accommodate weddings, corporate retreats, reunions, anniversaries and more.
