Is this place actually ever open? The many times I’ve tried to come here and it’s closed, even during its stated opening hours. Drive all the way to Rushden lakes to eat and find it’s shut…

Delicious food. Shame it was last weekend trading from Rushden lakes. Will definitely visit pop up.

Lovely food and really friendly staff. Was a wait because it is popular but it was worth the wait.Tried fried plantain, jerk pork burrito and chips and was yummy. Will definitely come back

In April 2023, my family and I were visiting Rushden Lake from Kent. We decided to try this restaurant for lunch, and oh boy, what a disappointment and waste of money that was. The menu boast all the authentic Jamaican trademark cuisines, but when the food arrived, it was horrible! The food had NO flavour! The Oxtail taste like it was boil, the ribs was dry like a piece of cardboard and the rice and peas was soft. Nothing about this place reflects or represent the Jamaican cuisine. Honestly, I personally wouldn't recommend anything on their menu.

Having been here previously. This was disappointing, having to go outside to order my food at the til by the 100grams and collect my own bottle of coke from the fridge and open it myself. The food was nice, but the whole experience wasn't a nice meal out . I sold the idea off coming here to my friend as I loved it last time I was here , unfortunately it let us down

Excellent food, service and atmosphere an all rounder hidden gem for a great night out . Fantastic value for money. Definitely going to come again!

We had the chef's banquet. Good kept coming and it was all hot. Enjoyed the experience very much.
My 8 year old daughter wanted to come here after previously having a coconut drink from a pop up stand. She went for the tropical drink,the gentleman was very helpful, as soon as she tried this drink she said "Wow! I give this a 10/10,best drink ever" she was very impressed and can't wait to come back. Thankyou :)

Details posted for Rushden is for a different branch.There was a poor choice of food 3 or 4 mains & starterThe chicken burger & prawns would not be out of place in Iceland frozen food.The food we where given wouldn’t need a chef to cook.They seem nice people but restaurant is not fit for purpose

Sadly, this restaurant is under used by the community and, as a result, seems to be struggling. The food is fantastic and the staff do all they can to ensure you have a great meal

It took half hr for drinks, staff what staff!!! No music, closed kitchen @ 9! Didn't eat because we looked @ other peoples food & looked dry, no presentation

Will be coming here again for sure! Food is amazing! Service was a tad streched due to large groups but John and his team (and his mum) were friendly, welcoming and wonderful hosts. The Big Plate was definately worth it and so tasty I wanted (but was too full to eat) seconds. Goat curry second to none. Cocktails strong enough they say hello and lots of interesting imported drinks too!Atmosphere was vibrant and chill and really comfortable to be in.Wheelchair accessibility: All ground floor and on the level. I didnt check out the toilets though for space.
