It's a cash-only establishment. Food, a variety of cooked Jamaican dishes including curry/stew chicken & the famous jerk chicken. As well as goat & pork. The service, although there were a few patrons inside they were able to move from order to food in your hands in 10-15mins wait time. The ambiance, small with very few sitting options, it's a order your food and take it home location. read more

Ordered lunch to-go and really enjoyed it. The service was very good and the staff were pleasant. I had pasta with BarbyFry shrimp which was really comforting... I fought sleeping at my desk for the rest of the day. The pasta was cooked al dente, and the sauce that accompanied it was just enough to cover it and not too soupy. There were an abundance of vegetables, especially carrots, which I love. The restaurant is not a sit down situation. It is also cash only, hence the missing star. read more

Typical jerk chicken takeout place, with the usual decor. Not really suitable for sit down dining, although there are a few stools and places to eat in. The good: The jerk pork was very good. The fiesta (bread sticks) were excellent. Rice and other sides were all good (not great). I especially liked the spicy jerk sauce and the oxtail gravy. The not so good: The chicken was under spiced and a bit dry. Jerk chicken should be full flavored and have a bbq flavor. Not sure how they prepare their chicken, but it didn't seem to be made on an open fire grill. It is their signature dish. I was expecting better. Not bad, but nothing to rave about. The lady at the counter was very nice and got my rather large order together in a reasonable amount of time. Perhaps I went on a slow day and the chicken was sitting under the heat lamps too long. I'll give it another try in the future. Hopefully, the chicken will be up to higher standards. read more

Stew chicken was delicious The lady who prepared my food was gracious Delivery was on time read more

Ordered a tray of stew chicken for family 24 hours in advance. Family is very picky when it comes to certain foods. Another business tried blue for, fell off their game and did not meet expectations. This place, chicken was excellent. Sauce was flavorful. Included carrot, rosemary, and vegetables cut up. Price was reasonable. Definitely will this order again. Needed to pay upfront, cash only. read more

Peppas is like Footprints, but better. The flavors are richer, the sauces are absolutely incredible, and everything tastes freshly made. The shrimp was a standout, they were jumbo size: perfectly seasoned, juicy, and packed with flavor. Portions are huge, so you definitely get your money's worth. Just a heads up: bring cash. Overall, amazing food and a spot I'd happily return to again read more

Take out only. Cash only. The food is really good consistently. My issue is the woman at the register. I'm used to some cashiers being rude at WI restaurants. One that works here is so nasty. Also there are no prices posted. I swear she charges me different amounts every time she rings my order. Last night she told me I should know what I want when I order after I added something to my original order. I spent more money not less. The rest of the staff is fine. She doesn't have to worry about me not knowing what I want to order anymore. I'm done. read more

The jerk chicken was seasoned well and fried snapper eschovich. Rice and peas was dry even with curry gravy. Service was expected for a Jamaican restaurant. Music was playing while you wait for your food. At times it's hard to hear when your order was ready. No bathroom. $$cash only$$ read more

My friend introduced me to this place and the food was horrible its like the jerk was cooked over 12 times.And the fish taste old am not a person who eats out. but following my friend i wasted my dam mone. read more

Brought a small soup and all you get is a small piece of chicken??? So I payed for the bowl and water with vegetables??!!!.

Was recommended to go to this place by my sister, but while at work my co worker said he did not like their food. But i decided to trust in my sister and still go... I ordered an oxtail. Was told that the oxtail was only enough for a medium. Fine with me I'm not a big eater. As she proceed to ring up the order she told me that in her system it only comes in larger. "Here comes the lady that shares the food" you can't get it... I told her well I'll still take it because the only option if it can't sell it goes to waste. Her response was well that's normal. I still proceed to tell her ma'am I'm not asking for a discount or handout and that you rather not sell and throw it out and turn away a paying customer/money to a business, this was 10pm. These places need to reevaluate the people they put to the front line of their business. She nor myself was rude, but it's the principles and shows how bad service can cause a place to go down. I fasted that night. read more

this place is 10 start the food always taste great, my favorite is the jerk chicken with the Rasta pasta, the seafood soup and chicken is also my favorite, I highly recommend this place. read more

I was in the mood for a hot plate of comfort food and so I decided to go to this Peppa's location. I got the Jerk Chicken meal that was reasonably priced at $13. The chicken was cooked fresh, hot and flavorful. The rice and gravy was very good just wish they added more gravy. The meal was supposed to come with plantains but there wasn't any in my plate. When I asked the woman making the plates she said the plantains was there. Got home and surprise there weren't any on my plate. I would give 5 stars for the food but the order/pick-up process was a bit chaotic. It's cash only in store but you can order on the app with card etc. There were no prices on the menu instore which means the prices probably change regularly. My friend noticed her meal was $1cheaper on the app than I store. If you have the patience to wait and are I'd recommend this place for a good meal but order via an app! read more

Yayyyy Queens finally has a Peppa's! It did not disappoint. I had the baked Mac n cheese and stew chicken and both were tasty. I went on the late night tip (IYKYK) and there were still pretty decent options and the food looked and tasted delicious. The service was iight too. I didn't feel rushed or unwelcome. I'll be back and I know more will too. read more

Peppers used to serve better Jamaican food in Brooklyn, but its quality has declined over the years. While it's still okay, it's no longer the best option for Jamaican cuisine in the area. read more

The food including the jerk chicken is excellent but the service and the waiting is terrible. It doesn't matter if you order on Uber Eats or in-store it's the same. The people behind the counter don't seem to know what they are doing, they just scramble around. The ambiance is terrible with the attitude you get when you ask about the food. And it's cash only which limits your options on what you can buy. No I'm not using your cheap ATM that charges $3 and then my bank charges me another $3. Get a CC machine. How you run out of Jerk chicken and jerk pork on Friday's? This happens all the time! read more

Hi, my name is Dee and I am addicted to your Jerk Chicken. Their house made Jerk sauce is nothing less than amazing. Expect long lines and a longer wait. Anytime after 5pm on a Friday, expect to wait. This spot is probably my top 5 locations for Jerk chicken ! read more

I had a craving for fish on a Sunday evening. Everywhere I went was either closed or sold out. After standing in peppas for about 20 mins I was prepared to walk out but you ever craved something so bad it didn't matter how long you had to wait? Well this was that feeling. I ordered the eschovitz fish and a corn on a cob. It was ok. I actually enjoyed the peppers and onions a little more than the actual fish. Service was far too slow for me. However I would give it a shot again. I've had the jerk chicken at the other location years ago and it was good. Bring cash because they do not accept cards. read more

Peppa's Jerk Chicken - Jerk chicken n hardough bread - Caribbean Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This past weekend I got a lift to check out Peppa's Jerk Chicken. I've heard of it before and I believe there are a few different locations. I may honestly only go back to the location near Prospect Place or Flatbush again because I'm generally never out on Utica avenue and the customers weren't exactly warm and receptive of me even entering the establishment. The staff were fantastic though and the business is a different story - everything smells amazing. I took my what looked like half an entire jerk chicken to go and side of mac and cheese. The mac and cheese was gooey and thick and full of flavor and the jerk chicken moist and tangy (although I asked for a ton of sauce). Definitely had enough leftover for another meal the next day and it was just as good. Really want to try their rasta pasta. Two thumbs up. read more

Honestly the best fresh jerk chicken spot. In Brooklyn that I have came across. When the weather is nice you would see the man outside with the season jerk chicken grilling it and watching over it. It's always crowded anytime after 5pm. It's about 29 to 25 min wait for your freshly season jerk chicken. This is a CASH ONLY dine out restaurant so please walk with CASH!!!! I love the festival with my jerk chicken it's a MUST. read more

They don't clean the fish. So they probably don't clean much of anything. Do not eat here.

HOT MESSSSS!!! I came there late night because I didn't get to eat dinner and I was truly dissapointed. I ordered the fried fish with the Rasta pasta and the fish wasn't cooked all the way. The Rasta pasta was delicious. I gave them a 3 star because of the customer service. The workers seem so annoyed and unhappy and I was friendly. I was just asking her a question regarding the meal and she completely ignored me and as a PAYING customer I definitely deserve kindness. I won't be back there read more

This place is always busy so I recommend ordering ahead of time. Very limited parking on the side near the McDonald's. Be prepared to wait a bit. Food is nice and flavorful though. I typically get the fish (porgies or snapper) & festival or bammy & mac & cheese. But I hear the chicken is great too read more

This that real jerk chicken and it's hitting the spot! I would suggest if you can't handle the jerk sauce then make there isn't any on the chicken but instead try BBQ sauce! read more

First things first, this jerk chicken is exactly what you need after dancing up a storm all night. What's even better us that they are open really late. The chicken is really yummy and juicy. It's not dry at all. The heat level is perfect on it's own. However if you are looking for a little extra kick, the pepper sauce they provide is to die for. I also really enjoyed their BBQ sauce; perfect addition. Oh and let's not forget the festival! I was lucky that I got it freshly made because it was extra extra good. read more

Peppa's Jerk Chicken - My bad, it smelled so good I forgot top take a picture before i started eating. Friend snapper - Caribbean Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I went there on a late night. The food was delicious but , they need better customer service skills!!

DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS. The food is usually good but I'm truly disappointed at the service that was displayed. We ordered via yelp for pickup and waited over one hour and a half for a jerk chicken meal to be confirmed. Once confirmed we arrived at the restaurant and we were told to wait outside in line for another hour. The "security" at the door let people walk in and order their food and get it within minutes and told people that ordered online that he didn't care and that they would have to wait and if they wouldn't like it their chicken would be spit on or tainted. He also said "I don't have to help any of you". Truly disappointed in the way this handled especially with being a Jamaican myself. read more

Peppa's Jerk Chicken - Security that said "I don't have help any of y'all" - Caribbean Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This is Peppa's 2nd location (they have 3 now) and The experience is slightly different but the food is exactly the same. This location is clearly much newer than the first location. The first location is more hole in the wall. This location is still best for takeout does have seating for about 10 people. You need to have the jerk chicken if you come to peppa's its the best in the world if I am being honest. Im Jamaican and I have had jerk chicken all over the country and Peppa's is the best imho. Drizzle a little jerk sauce (its pretty spicy and honestly its spicier at this location as compared to the other 2) and some bbq sauce and your instantly treated to this humble plate of heavenly chicken. If im being completely honest I have never managed to eat anything else at Peppa's besides their jerk chicken and their festival (which is also bomb). This location unlike the other keeps other food items in stock. You can come buy and most things are available (oxtails, curry, stew chicken, mac & cheese etc). If you know Caribbean places, have the full menu available is a rarity. This location doesnt have that meanish brooklyn vibe that I appreciate from the OG but many people will probably appreciate it the service is much better and its not as crowded. read more

I do my nails in Brooklyn and I go there and pick up all the time. I love their jerk chicken and the sauce. OMG. The price is great for the quantity of their portions. read more

Opened 24 hours. I Had a late flight and was starving, and wanted something good to eat! So i had to make a stop at Peppas. There's literally only one seat here, but if you're visiting Peppas your intentions should never be to dine in, this is a take out Restuarant. I personally believe they have some of the best jerk in the area(not the best but it's up there) The jerk sauce is madd spicy, my cousin told me, this location is it's the spiciest out of their multiple locations. Pros: the service is extremely quick, they always have a lot of people staffed to accommodate rushes. Pricing is pretty reasonable. Festivals are pretty awesome! Aren't too many cons but this is a cash only Restaurant but there is an atm. I wanted to try the Mac and cheese because it looks so good, but i went with what i normally get, jerk chicken and festivals! (All star combination) And considering that i haven't eaten chicken in four months, it should tell you that their chicken is pretty good for me to break my streak. read more

This peppas is THE peppas to go too!! I always get the same thing: Stewed Chicken Rasta Pasta with 4 festivals. First off, how can I come across that festival recipe???? No one in brooklyn has ever made a festival better than Peppas! Not even the peppas on Flatbush! The food is extremely good, however, it's 2020!!! This cash only business is extremely tacky! And y'all need to move with a sense of urgency given the lines are always out the door! read more

Used Uber Eats for delivery. The wait in person is incredibly LOOOOOOONG but whether you order in person or delivery just know the jerk chicken will ALWAYS be on point and will NEVER disappoint. It's tender and full of flavor. I ask them to add the jerk and BBQ sauce on it so it can soak into the hot succulent meat. Best part, the festival is addictive! I think they put some kind of drug in it. I cannot stay away from this crispy and soft and sweet lump of dough. Use it together with the chicken. Soooooo good. Second best part is that they are open late... possibly 24hours. If you don't try this Peppa's (the one on UTICA AVE) you will never get to enter the gates of heaven. THIS CHICKEN IS HEAVEN!. 4 stars because its take out only and the wait is longer than president Trump's trail of lies. read more

Once I opened up the container and that smell hit me I knew I was getting some authentic jerk. I love a dry jerk with all the smoky flavor and just the right balance of seasoning and this is it. They give you some sauce on the side as well that tastes good, but honestly it doesn't need it. The mac and cheese is very thick and cheesy so it's decent, and would probably pair well with something with a gravy like oxtail to soften it up a bit. Now I understand why there's so many people standing up waiting inside for the food. I'm glad I put in my order ahead of time to pick up. I will definitely return here in the future. read more

It's quick. It's cash only. And it's pretty good. The inside is clean and the staff is friendly enough. I've yet to be disappointed on any visit here. The jerk chicken is great and they let you sauce up to your liking at the counter. Just don't overdo...or overdo it if you want to be that weirdo. The macaroni and cheese is also a favorite of mine. I take it over the rice the and peas most days. This place is an easy and quick stop in. Enjoy. read more

Like I did something to one of them ugly ass servers there or something. I pay attention and that's horrible customer service. read more
