  “What a lovely experience! Greta welcomed my daughter and I and made us feel immediately at home. We were visiting Winchester from London for a short break and were pleasantly surprised to find a restaurant serving Caribbean food. Delicious food, chilled atmosphere and a choice of games to play which kept us entertained. Greta was so friendly and warm. Great customer service all round. We will return! Highly recommend. 2nd visit in a week and loved the experience. Zak was very helpful and served us with a smile. Very welcoming restaurant- Saturday was extra busy - great food and great customer service!”

  “Amazing experience! We usually visit turtle bay in London Camden. The Winchester turtle bay was absolutely lovely. Phil was great, he helped us with all our questions and he has a great sense of humor too! Would definitely come back. They have a lot of vegan options”

  “We visited Turtle Bay in Winchester on St Patrick’s Day 2026, and it turned out to be such a memorable experience. Although it was a quieter evening than expected, the atmosphere still felt warm and welcoming, largely thanks to the staff who brought so much energy despite it being calm. From the moment we arrived, the service really stood out. We were greeted by our server, Phil, who was absolutely fantastic. He had such a natural, authentic presence and brought a kind of theatrical charm to the whole experience—in the best possible way. It felt like he genuinely enjoyed what he was doing, which made us enjoy it even more. The bar staff were just as lovely. At one point, they surprised us with free virgin piña colada shots for no particular reason, which was such a thoughtful and unexpected gesture. It really added to the overall warmth of the place. All in all, it was a great experience from start to finish. The combination of great service, a positive atmosphere (even on a quiet night), and those little extra touches made it really special. We’ll definitely be returning.”

  “Great service from Phil and the manager. Food was mixed. Prawn curry and burger were great. Plaintain delicious. Roti was very disappointing and not authentic Caribbean. Virgin Colada was a rip-off - £13 for two in tiny cocktail glasses any mainly just pineapple juice. Great atmosphere and will go again but please change the rotis. Thanks to Phil for great service.”

  “Jerk Chicken with cheesy Jerk Fries was delicious, with just the right level of spice, perfectly accompanied with a scooner of Atlantic IPA. Trini Coconut Prawn Curry with a side order of Black Beans and Grains with a Pinapple Rum cocktail which was also rather good 😋 Quick and efficient service from friendly and attentive staff”

  “This was our 1st time eating in a Caribbean restaurant and we were not disappointed. The menu was explained to us as too what was spicy and what was not. I went for the spicy mutton which as described as between a jalfrezi and a madras however the hotness does not linger so on the safe side I also had a mixed bean which was cold and I was pleasantly surprised it was delicious. The staff were also friendly and polite. I really do recommend this restaurant and I hope to go back on my next visit from Scotland.”

  “Sunday plans = sorted. The Sunday Sharer here is an absolute steal — generous portions, loads of variety, and perfect for that classic British Sunday mindset of “let’s order loads and deal with the consequences later.” Ideal for families, mates, or anyone who believes sharing food is the real love language. The food is solid and comforting, with bold Caribbean flavours and hearty plates that do exactly what a Sunday meal should — make you happy and slightly immobile. For the price point, it’s excellent value, especially when sharing. What really lifts the experience is the vibe — relaxed, upbeat, feel-good energy all round. The staff are genuinely friendly and helpful too, striking that rare balance of being attentive without hovering like you’re about to nick the cutlery. Now, the reason this stays at 4 stars: the cocktails. They look absolutely gorgeous — full marks for presentation — but flavour-wise they could use a bit more punch. Less Insta glam, more Caribbean kick, please. All in all, a great spot for an easy, sociable Sunday meal with good food, good energy, and great value. As someone who spends a fair bit of time thinking about food (possibly too much — Your Food Fantasy will vouch for that), the Sunday Sharer alone makes this worth the visit. Definitely coming back.”
