We're working on a few exciting new recipes so there may be a couple of delicious new dishes added to our Christmas 2024 menu soon!

Something For Everyone

From the moment you step away from the hustle and bustle of Exeter into our vibrant restaurant, you'll feel the warmth of the Caribbean wash over you. The sweet smell of smoky jerk fills the air, island party tunes are spinning, and cool cocktails are shaken to the beat. We pack all our dishes with rich spices from the islands – thyme, allspice, nutmeg and more - to bring a burst of flavour you won’t find on your average Christmas menu. Expect fresh, exciting veggie and vegan options and plenty of choice for those who don’t like spice. We know groups can have lots of different dietary requirements, so you can download our allergen guide and share it around. Just drop us an email if you have any questions.

Want to know more about jerk?

Not sure what to order this Christmas? Jerk chicken is one of the most popular dishes in Jamaica! So what is jerk? Originating in Jamaica, it refers to a special way of marinating & slow cooking over an open flame – usually it’s meat, like chicken or pork, resulting in a juicy, succulent and smoky dish that’s like nothing else.

Our iconic smoky jerk flavours from our BBQ jerk pits are what we're famous for, so why not check them out this Christmas?
