THE CHATTEL HOUSE

The Chattel House is a brightly colored richly flavored Caribbean retreat in the midst of North Austin. Its poetic name inspires the poignant picture of the pastel-colored, white, gingerbread-trimmed confectionary like habitats that dot the countryside of Barbados and the Caribbean. The word Chattel is both wonderful and woeful in its literal meaning. "Chattel" is defined as both an article of moveable personal property and a slave. And the history of these architectural and historic gems bespeaks both meanings... The Chattel House shares an authentic West Indian Caribbean dining experience with an eclectic, professional family audience. Our savory cuisines, vibrant décor and our eager welcoming and embracing service, nurtures a sanctuary that you can spend quality time with friends and family and leave rejuvenated and refreshed.
