Cayman grocery stores are very comparable with large US or Canadian grocery stores.  They carry most major US and Canadian brands, as well as USDA certified meats, UK brands, lots of fresh fish, shellfish, meats and a variety of vegetables and fruit and local food and produce.  Finding organic food, especially vegetables and fruit, is now very easy as Cayman grows a number of organic crops and fresh organic produce is shipped from overseas. Most supermarkets are very accommodating and if you can’t find something that you miss from home, they will usually order it for you.  All of the supermarkets carry some organic products and fresh organic produce grown both locally and overseas. Along with supermarkets there are many specialty markets and convenience stores across the Island.  All the stores sell very good meat, but the standard and freshness of fish tends to fluctuate between different stores. Don’t be afraid to ask when the fish came in and which is the freshest.  As part of an Island-wide campaign to discourage the use of plastic bags, Foster’s Food Fair, Hurley’s and Kirk Market all charge CI$0.05 per plastic bag if you need to use one.  Take along your own canvas shopping bags for all your shopping.

Most liquor stores in Grand Cayman are stocked with top brands plus some carry rare vintages of wine, champagne and port.  You can purchase beer and wine by the case at the larger stores, and also get expert advice on choosing a bottle of good wine from the staff.  You can also buy rum, champagne and vodka as well as all the mixers, chasers and non alcoholic beverages from the smaller stores.

All grocery and liquor stores in Cayman are closed on Sunday.
