About

Café Caribbean is a polarizing spot. Fans rave about the authentic, flavourful jerk chicken, curry goat, and the Sunday roast, often calling it a home-cooked gem. However, many customers report inconsistent service, long wait times, and occasional issues with portion sizes or food temperature. While some find it a cozy, welcoming place, others feel the service is dismissive and the value for money is lacking.
