Codrington, Barbuda WaO'moni's Best Lobsters and Fritters have a whole lot to offer. They specialize in making traditional Lobster Thermidor, Lobster Fritters, Conch Fritters and much more! They also supply bulk orders of freshly caught lobsters for grilling. Orders may be placed for parties, weddings and special occasions. Remember to place your orders at least 2 weeks in advance, but if you are in Barbuda for just the day call ahead to place your order.

As the locals would say "Seafood ah fu we nyam" meaning "Seafood is our food." P.S. The name WaO'moni is the Amerindian name for the beautiful island of Barbuda. Barbuda is also known for its exquisite pink sandy beaches and its delectable lobster.

Fancyway Store Codrington Village, Barbuda Barbuda is a resourceful island and so are its people. Proprietor Francilla Francis, known to many as Fancy, began selling clothes from her mother’s front room in 1968. Gradually groceries came into play and she moved from her front room shop to the current store, which opened its doors in 1983.

Only 300 yds from Codrington airport this could be your first or last stop for a drink and some goodies to take home. In 2010, Miss Francilla Francis became a Commander of the Most Illustrious Order of Merit (CM) for services in Business and the Public Sector in Barbuda.

Surviving several storms and hurricanes, the store continues to serve the community and passing tourists. Fancyway is a store for essentials, but you will also find the odd line of T-Shirts, linen and toiletries.
