The food here was delicious, with a great atmosphere and a decent portion size. Highly recommend the roast dinner here.

Came here on a Saturday night for dinner. Loved the layout and the service I can't remember the lady who looked after me and my friend but she was great. On Saturdays I believe they have a DJ which adds to the vibe. I remember I didn't like any of the drinks from the menu so they made me a cocktail based on my favourite ingredient mixes. Food is 10/10 now to come back on a Sunday for the roast !!

Lovely Meal and Great Atmosphere We had a wonderful meal here. The food was delicious with generous portion sizes, and they provide boxes for leftovers, which we used! I had the pork, and my partner had the lamb; both were were really tender and full of flavour. We didn’t need any extra gravy, as the amount served was just right (and we’re Irish, that’s saying something). The sides were plentiful, and the rice and peas were especially tasty. We ordered the mac and cheese which was a nice addition. Had a great wine choice too. The service was friendly and attentive, and the restaurant itself is gorgeously designed with a comfortable atmosphere. Looking forward to coming back!

Came for the cheap Thursday menu. Staff were super attentive. Food came out fast staggered and hot which was perfect. Incredible flavours, pork belly, curried coat and Guinness Punch are a must.

Always a great atmosphere when I visit here; both for an event or to eat. Lovely food (meat option) and drinks, especially the rum punch. A real Deptford gem.

Ibby thank you for your excellent service and looking after our table of 3! The portion sizes were spot on and the taste was delicious! We all ordered the lamb roast and my girls couldn’t get enough of the mint sauce! If I had to be picky, maybe better cocktail offerings would be amazing. Other than that, I’ll be back! Thank you and the lovely lady that served us the bill x

Brought my Mum here for a taste of the Caribbean. She didn't ask for hot sauce! result! Friendly service, relaxed atmosphere, good music, and tasty cocktails that weren't run of the mill - the mango and scotch bonnet had a good kick to it. Loved the oxtail croquettes, and the saltfish fritters tasted pretty authentic to this half-Bajan diner. Will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu!
