Four of us ordered: 2 oxtails, one stew chicken and one jerk chicken; all with rice and peas. We also ordered the plantains and a beef patty. Beef patty was a bit on the skinny side but the meat taste fresh and wasnt dried out. The oxtail entrees had a good amount of oxtail and each featured a fair amount of meat on each bone. The gravy wasnt greasy either. The jerk chicken (my favorite of the entrees we ordered) had the right amount of jerk seasoning and had a crispy skin. The meat was succulent as well. The stew chicken was average but good. I definitely would recommend this to anyone who wanted some high quality jamaican food.

I had received an email inviting me to a members party with free beer or cocktails, great never one to knock a freebee!! Upon arrival the private bar area was not ready so we waited at the bar, several others also looking for the members party arrived and were told the same thing, come on guys you say you are starting at a certain time so please do. Anyway once they had got their act together down we went to find that most of the seating had been reserved!! So faced with this we did as many others did and sat at a reserved table and waited to be told to move, which we never were. The free cocktail was ok nothing special, it got interesting when our table, which we shared with liked minded group looking for somewhere to sit, when they provided us with a large cocktail to share!! When I say large it was like a fish bowl but made from wood with several straws in it, for us to share with people we did not know!!! Not doing that. The other group on the table looked at us as we looked at them as they were not doing that either, they did give us the drink as they were leaving so awkwardness escaped!! Once we had filled our boots with the large free cocktail we went upstairs to eat, initially we were seated in the middle of the restaurant and that table was accompanied by an unwanted draft/breeze which was cold!! We asked to move and at first they were hesitant saying there was nowhere to move to!! We pointed out empty seats where we felt we could sit and not be in the draft again they resisted but eventually buckled to our relentless quest to be re-seated. The new area had less of a draft, I'm sure they could have just turned the heat up and the problem would have been gone. Once resettled we ordered. Having been to the other two branches of this brand we knew what to expect of the food. I like the idea behind the Rum Kitchen but I feel that the Carnaby Street one hits the mark more so than this one and the Brixton ones. My opinion, just saying!!

I haven't had jerk chicken in London before but I'm doubtful anything can beat this place, and the price. The place itself is very small and there's only two small tables if you don't want to do takeaway. The decor is awesome... lots of pictures of Caribbean celebrities cover all the walls and even the menu sign. We ordered the large jerk chicken plate to share. It came with Caribbean fried rice with beans and one plantain. Would have been better if there were more plantains because it was absolutely delicious. The fried rice was amazing with the soft, tender, well-grilled chicken. The two sauces the dish came with was spicy so if you can't eat spicy don't get the sauce. Will definitely come back (worried I might come back too often) because we each paid 4 pounds each, so 8 total. Insane for London standards.

I did the bottomless brunch with rum punch which tasted just how my dad makes it but less sweet. I ordered the jerk chicken with rice and peas and the sweet potato fritter as a starter. Pros: the staff was really nice and were quick to refill our rum punch without having to get their attention. While i'm used to my jerk chicken being a dry rub or smoked, this was more of a saucy jerk sauce which I didn't mind. It honestly wasn't spicy which was good since I wasn't in the mood for that. Cons: the sweet potato fritter was just ok. I really could have done without it. It didn't have any flavor and it was dense. Overall, this is a solid Caribbean place to at least try once when you're in London.
