“Open-air Caribbean spot on Mission Beach boardwalk slinging huge portions, tropical drinks, and mocktails steps from the sand.”
One reviewer notes it's 'easily accessible from the boardwalk' — you can roll in straight from the beach.
One reviewer praises the 'chicken sandwich Caribbean bbq sauce,' and Google summary calls the fare 'Caribbean-inspired.'
One reviewer emphasizes servings are 'HUGE' in all caps — portion size is part of the value proposition here.
Diner 'really liked their zero proof/mocktail options' — a standout feature for a beachside bar.
Google summary highlights 'tropical cocktails,' and one diner specifically calls out the 'Puff Puff Passion' drink as worth returning for.
“Miss B's Coconut Club turns Caribbean techniques loose on a wide-open patio where post-beach traffic collides with actual sit-down plating.”
Most Mission Beach dining splits clean: rooftop sushi chasing sunset angles, slider engineering, old-guard steakhouse formality. Miss B's occupies different real estate entirely — Caribbean flavors, tropical cocktails, portions sized like they're feeding volleyball teams, all served on a sprawling patio that pulls boardwalk foot traffic into an actual meal ritual instead of a grab-and-go stop.
The coconut shrimp runs proper appetizer scale — not three decorative pieces but enough volume to share without negotiation. The crab croquettes show up often enough in reviews to suggest kitchen consistency, arriving with enough structural integrity to hold together through the tropical heat. The Cubanella sandwich builds on that same Caribbean backbone: pressed, sauced, stacked high enough that the fries (plentiful, according to regulars) become almost secondary.
The Puff Puff Passion cocktail gets specific callouts, which matters in a neighborhood where 'tropical drink' often means premix and food coloring. They carry Happy Dad and Happy Mom seltzers if you're leaning lighter, plus zero-proof options that reviewers note actually get attention instead of functioning as afterthoughts. The vegan and vegetarian menu runs deeper than token gestures — this isn't a spot where plant-based means 'we can remove the chicken from a salad.'
Service consistency wobbles depending on shift and section — bar seats reportedly run smoother than patio tables when the restaurant's slammed, which happens most weekend mornings when brunch traffic stacks. The open-air layout means you're eating with the boardwalk hum as background noise, not in spite of it. Accessible straight from the boardwalk, so post-surf or post-skate stops don't require outfit changes or detours.
The fish sandwich draws mixed feedback (some reviewers flag overly-forward fishiness), but the Caribbean BBQ chicken consistently clears the bar. Servings skew large across the board — this is a spot where 'I'll just get an appetizer' rarely holds. The 11 a.m. opening time matters if you're trying to beat lunch rush or secure patio seating before the sun gets aggressive.
