Born from the heart of a dreamer from Greece, The Fig & Olive brings a true taste of the Mediterranean spirit to the Isle of Man — with a fresh, flavour-packed twist. Nestled in central Douglas, this relaxed and casual dining spot blends sun-soaked flavours from across the Med with bold Asian and international influences, creating one of the most imaginative menus on the island.
Open for lunch and dinner, The Fig & Olive invites diners into a bright, open space where every visit feels like a holiday — bursting with colour, warmth, and creativity. Whether you’re after a romantic meal for two, a lively group dinner, or a relaxed weekday lunch, you’ll find yourself surrounded by the aromas, textures, and flavours of the sea, the land, and everywhere in between.
The menu is a true celebration of global cuisine, with no strict geographical rules — just the desire to delight and surprise. You’ll find classic favourites from when the restaurant first opened, as well as seasonal dishes and daily specials, driven by fresh ingredients delivered into the kitchen each morning. Every dish is cooked to order by a team that’s passionate, imaginative, and skilled — not fussy, just flavour-focused and full of soul.
From Mediterranean platters and seafood specials to unexpected twists on global comfort food, The Fig & Olive is all about keeping things exciting. The restaurant caters to all dietary needs, with a dedicated vegan menu, gluten-free and vegetarian options, and a young guest menu to keep everyone happy. Bespoke party menus are also available for groups and celebrations, ensuring there’s something for every taste and budget.
The drinks offering is just as thoughtfully curated. The wine list features excellent value selections from across the globe, many of which are available by the glass, while the cocktail menu brings a touch of fun and flair to every meal. There’s also a wide range of premium spirits, soft drinks, and a homemade dessert menu that’s worth saving room for — including Davison’s Manx ice cream, a local favourite.
Bookings are welcomed, especially on busy weekends, but walk-ins are also encouraged, adding to the restaurant’s laid-back, friendly vibe. The Fig & Olive is family-friendly, ideal for casual meals and special occasions alike, and offers a dining experience that’s full of energy, heart, and flavour.
At The Fig & Olive, the mission is simple: to surprise, satisfy, and send every guest home with a smile. With one of the island’s most varied and creative menus, a welcoming team, and an atmosphere that feels like a sunny escape, it’s easy to see why so many fall in love with this Douglas favourite.
