Customer Review Summary
Diners most often single out the jerk chicken plate, served with rice and peas, plantain and dumplings, with the dumplings called a standout and the chicken described as packed with spices. Close behind are the mutton curry and curried goat, and a huge chicken patty that did not skimp on filling. Reviewers also praise the friendly counter service and a welcoming chef, and a couple note the food arrives quickly. Others report long waits for delivery and for the meal itself, and one birthday party found the kitchen had run out of many of the dishes they wanted. One reviewer hoped for jerk cooked on a jerk pan. The sharpest complaints come from two reviewers. One reports a hair in the food, starchy rice and tough, chewy mutton after a very long wait. The other says the owner shouted at them down the phone while ordering, and that a family member had the same experience. One diner said the jerk chicken was still warm after a 20 minute walk home.

“Rang up to order a few months ago and I couldn’t fully understand the owner when placing an order, he then proceeded to shout at me down the phone. Family member rang up yesterday and he did the same. Be wary as the owner is very aggressive and not a nice guy.”

“Absolutely fantastic food and a brilliant atmosphere every time. Kev and the team always make everyone feel welcome and create such a friendly environment. The food is consistently delicious, full of flavour. You can really tell they care about quality and customer experience. Easily one of our go-to places and highly recommended.”

“As a born Jamaican who has lived in the uk for the last 15 yrs the food was a big disappointment number 1 found a hair in my food number 2 rice didn’t taste washed it was starchy mutton was tuff and chewy food took 2 hrs to come been to other Caribbean shops and will def stick to it. Caribbean spice u are over rated and since I ate from u a few ppl said the same thing”

“Caribbean Spice is a Londoner Rd OG classic! From the early 2000s I’ve loved this place😍👌🏾. Great value and portions for the price. My favourite is mutton and fried chicken. Love that the meals come with steamed veg. Everything is cooked on point. The chef has got the best personality and is very welcoming! The only thing is I hope they start doing jerk chicken on a jerk pan soon. That’d be the best. Delivery took a little bit long but they’re always busy and you can see why. Was worth the wait”
