Delicious but a long wait!

Fantastic options and absolutely amazing Carribbean food. I had the potato curry, plantain, and vegan mac and cheese, and everything was perfectly cooked and delicious. We were waiting a while to have our order taken and for our food, however it seemed like they were having a busier night than expected and the staff did so well despite this! Overall, fantastic food and great range of options, but I was a bit disappointed by how long it took!

Very tasty comfort food

I had the vegan platter which had a curry (I chose Idal), rice with beans, sweetcorn fritters, plantain fritters, jackfruit and salad. Partner had the special. We also got the mac n cheese. Was really impressed with the choices and found it very tasty.

Yummy Caribbean food

Stopped here for lunch as we were ravenous and it really delivered. Fried plantain with a delicious mango sauce as a side and a ciabatta of avocado and jerk tofu was exactly what I needed. Really filling so unfortunately we couldn't try dessert!

Pros: Amazing food, Great value, Lovely art and atmosphere to the place

Great Mock Mojita

As I already ate elsewhere I opted for a drink. They have a good range of mocktails suitable for vegans. It was just what I needed after a long day, so refreshing and tasty.

Pros: Vegan options

Cons: Serves meat & dairy

Really enjoyable

Me and my partner got takeout from here while staying close to Aberystwyth. We were staying a train ride out from the centre so by time we got the food back it needed warming but still tasted amazing so can only imagine how great it would be fresh!

A grand ole feed up

A great restaurant, with a great vibe, and friendly staff. They had us in last minute before they closed, and were happy to accommodate us at short notice. Laaaaaarge portion sizes, and well spiced too. I'd definitely come back and obvs I'd recommended

Yummers!

Dropped in today just before they closed to prepare for the evening shift, but the staff were really welcoming & accommodating. Even though there's a reduced menu during COVID, there are still plenty of vegan options available. I had the vegetable burrito bowl - it was delicious. My partner had the plantain burrito, which he said was immense. We shared corn fritters & festivals, which were a revelation! The portions are really generous, the staff are great & the place has a great vibe. We'll definitely return if we're back in the area.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Friendly staff, Great vibe

Lovely staff and tasty food

Not entirely vegan but there are clearly marked vegan options. Staff are very friendly, I walked in unaware their kitchens were closed between 4-5pm (not sure if this is temporary or not) but they very kindly offered to sort out my small order of just mac n cheese for me anyway. Was really tasty, I'd definitely go back.

Best options in town

So many vegan options here and obviously made by staff who know what they are doing. Only negative is that they don't offer non-dairy milk... Yet!

Lunch stop

Although not entirely vegan, this is a great find for a vegan lunch, just passing through Aberystwyth and found this Caribbean delight on the Happy Cow app. I had a very delicious Cari-bean burger.

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Cons: Reasonably priced
