Very nice & tasty - Edit
We had different dishes, from „fish“ to „chicken“ and it all was so well balanced. Simple and rich in flavours. Totally the place to be if you want some Jamaican food/

🌱 Vegan Caribbean Heaven! 🌱 - Edit
Tried the new spring, summer menu at Jam Delish and was seriously impressed. I went for the small plates because I wanted to try as much as I could.
Read moreThe Red Stripe glazed jerk cauliflower stole the show, just perfection.
Also loved the Trinidadian saheena fritters, the “saltfish” tostones, and the Guava pepper “scallops”, so so good!
This is a 100% vegan and independent establishment that’s an absolute must-visit in London.
Pros: Near tube station , Beautiful interior, Friendly staff
JamDelish
Thank you so much, CarlaFromRio, for your lovely review — we’re absolutely delighted that your visit left such a strong impression!
Read moreOur spring–summer menu was designed to celebrate bold Caribbean flavours with finesse, so it’s a joy to hear how much you enjoyed exploring the small plates — especially the Red Stripe jerk cauliflower and saheena fritters. Chef Nathan and his team will be thrilled by your praise.
We’re also grateful for your kind words about the space and service. Our GM Davide and his service team take great pride in delivering an elevated experience from the moment guests walk through our doors.
We look forward to welcoming you back soon — and we think another round of sorrel margaritas will be on the cards when you do, thank you.

Really tasty - Edit
Had the goat curry which was a really nice Seitan and did the job perfectly. The sauce was very flavourful.
Read moreHad some seasoned greens with it and I found these to be over buttered, but the dumplings in there were real good too.
JamDelish
Thank you, Sampholland8! We're so pleased you enjoyed the curry "goat" — one of our signature dishes and a true labour of love from Chef Nathan and his team. We thank you for your custom, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon for another joyful dining experience at Jam Delish, thank you.

Delicious food and great cocktails! - Edit
Jam Delish is a restaurant with a cocktail bar area. It has a simple, stylish decor and dim lights giving it a classy feel. We went for the early bird set menu offer which you can book through OpenTable and which gives you three courses for £32. This is great value as you can pick any starter, main and desert from the à la carte menu and works out as basically getting a starter or dessert for free!
Read moreFor our starters we went for the Jamaican "Oxtail" Coco Bread and Grenadian Guava Pepper "Scallops". The Coco bread was soft (like a bao bun texture) and very tasty with a delicious filling and dipping sauce on the plate. The gravy was very runny so it was difficult to get much on the bread but that didn't matter as it was very delicious anyway. The scallops were also very tasty with a delicious mix of flavours, fresh crispy cabbage providing a nice crunch and a bit of spiciness.
For our mains we went for the Caribbean Fried "chicken" with Gravy and Curry "Goat". The "chicken" was really crispy, spicy and delicious! The flavours and textures of the cabbage and mash were also really good. The curry goat was also delicious with a strong curry flavour (which was also spicy) and delicious, soft plantain.
We also got a side of "Bacon" Mac and Cheese which was excellent with a rich, smoky flavour and lovely sticky texture.
For dessert we went for the Banana Cake and Cheesecake Of The Week. Both desserts were delicious! The banana cake had a great fluffy texture and was balanced nicely with the sweetness of the cream. The cheesecake was chocolate flavoured and was rich and indulgent. It also had a really nice texture.
I also got a Blue Lagoon cocktail. It was strong and absolutely delicious! It was so good I had another one and have since got myself a bottle of Wray and Nephew which is in the drink. It was also very good value for money as I was very tipsy even after the first one!
The only negative notes for this restaurant are that it is quite pricey (although the earlybird set menu is good value) and it also took a while to be served some of our dishes. That aside the food was all delicious, the restaurant had a nice ambience and the staff are very friendly. I would definitely recommend!
Pros: Ambience, Blue Lagoon cocktail was delicious, Delicious food
Cons: Pricey, Service was on the slower side
JamDelish
Thank you so much, HenryBlane, for this beautifully detailed review — what a joy to read! We're thrilled that you enjoyed the Early Bird Set Menu and explored so many of our signature dishes and cocktails. Chef Nathan and his team pour heart and creativity into every plate, so your kind words mean a lot.
Read moreIt’s especially lovely to hear that our Blue Lagoon left a lasting impression — and that you went out to get your own Wray & Nephew bottle after! Our GM Davide and his service team will be delighted to know the ambience and service helped round out your evening with us. We're proud to be an independent space where vibrant Caribbean flavours meet warm hospitality, and we’d love to welcome you back soon for more.
Here’s to your next visit — perhaps another round of cocktails awaits? Thank you.

Terribly disappointing - Edit
The restaurant was dirty the food wasn’t fresh, it tasted like it was made a long time before it was served, the service inattentive but the prices were eye watering. We’re not going back

Cons: The floor was dirty the menus greasy the table sti, We had to get our own cutlery and water , The food was stale and cold

Dear dearlybel,
Read moreThank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, though we’re genuinely disappointed to read your comments — particularly as they bear little resemblance to the standards we maintain or the experience most of our guests enjoy.
Cleanliness and freshness are non-negotiables at Jam Delish. Our kitchen prepares every dish to order, and our team, led by Head Chef Nathan and GM Davide, take immense pride in the service and environment we provide. We routinely receive praise for both the quality of our food and the warmth of our front-of-house, so it's disheartening to hear this depiction.
Had any of these concerns been raised during your visit, we would have welcomed the opportunity to address them directly. As it stands, the tone and content of your review seem inconsistent with what we experienced in service that day.
We do wish you all the best moving forward, and should you choose to return, we’d be happy to provide the standard of experience our team is known for, thank you.

Great dessert but everything else ok - Edit
Maybe the food isn’t for me. The 3 course meal was £38 and I expected more for the price. The food provided wasn’t anything special to be honest. I wasn’t a fan of a mix of sweet, savory and spicy flavors. They didn’t really go well.
Read moreHowever the desserts were delicious and some of the best ones I’ve had in my life. I’ll definitely come back just to have the dessert.
JamDelish
Dear kumasan,
Read moreThank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts. While we’re sorry to hear that our bold flavour combinations weren’t quite to your taste, we appreciate your honesty and are glad you enjoyed our desserts — we’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to Chef Nathan and his team.
Our menu is designed to celebrate the depth and vibrancy of Caribbean cuisine through a plant-based lens. That said, we’re delighted to know our desserts left such a lasting impression, and we’d love to welcome you back for another sweet ending sometime soon, thank you.

Great food, bad service… - Edit
A bit of a mixed review.
Read moreI went there with my non vegan-husband. We ordered the early bird set menu deals (which is highly recommended if you plan on going there).
The food was great! All flavors were very balanced. The banana cake at the end was delicious.
The service, however, was extremely disappointing. It really felt they didn’t care…
The food arrived but one set of utensils was missing. We tried calling for a waiter, but after a couple of minutes just went to the hostess and asked her.
We asked multiple times for water and didn’t receive it.
We asked for the desserts menu but it never arrived, we had to look it up online.
After all of that, they charged us a service fee of 12.5%.
Personally, we really enjoyed the food, but the service ruined our overall experience.
Pros: The food
Cons: Very very bad service , Mandatory service fee
mik
Their menu clearly says the service fee is optional.

Dear Eyal87
Read moreThank you for joining us and for your kind words about the food — we’re so pleased you enjoyed your meal, and that the banana cake left a sweet impression!
We’re also glad you made the most of our Early Bird set menu — it’s one of our favourite ways for guests to sample the range of flavours we offer.
Just to clarify for you and other readers, the 12.5% service charge is entirely optional and discretionary, and this is noted on all bills.
We’d love to welcome you back again soon for another delicious visit, thank you.

Busy Friday night - Edit
I went with friends on a friday night - it isnt a massive place so it was got really full as we were there which i think contributed to a few mix ups with our orders. The food was great, especially my ‘chicken’ mash and gravy, but we got a selection of different nibbles, sides and my big plate which came out at different times without warning/ the option to come at once. We also got the wrong plates, so one of my friends ate hers cold. The staff were nice though, and had been before without the same problems so I think we just caught them on a bad day.

Fantastic food - Edit
Loved the food, and good service too. We got the fried chicken and jerk chicken for mains, the fried chicken was incredible, the jerk chicken was also nice but perhaps too heavy on cloves. The chocolate cheesecake and panna cotta for dessert were also really good. Will definitely be back soon.

Great concept, tasty food - Edit
I absolutely loved the idea of this place, the descriptions looked amazing and the food itself was definitely unusual. I tried the "codfish" pea stew and the "codfish" was basically kohlrabi I think, and really not that impressive? But the pea stew was banging! Spicy and well seasoned 🔥 and this place has one of the best mac n cheese I have ever had. It's truly worth it. It was creamy, rich, gooey, savory...genuinely the best weekend treat! 👌

The starters we tried were absolutely amazing !
The "fish" dish is incredible, i would love to know how they do such a texture, and the "goat" lacks a bit of flavour but is also very tasty.
I would have liked some chili or any special hot sauce aside for more flavour.

Phenomenal - Edit
Incredible restaurant! I hadn’t found any good Caribbean food since going vegan and Jam Delish fulfilled that need. The oyster mushroom fried chicken was delicious and so was the roti to share. The food was beautifully presented, flavoursome and good portion sizes.

Everything is really well cooked, but lacks pop - Edit
For starters the pros: Everything is cooked perfectly. The textures are nice, the proteins are extremely realistic, and everything was visually stunning.
Read moreThe cons: three of our four dishes were nearly flavorless, and the only flavor in the forth came from a mild green sauce. With how beautiful and well cooked everything was, this was a real disappointment.

Update November 2024
Read moreThe new location is great and the food was on point. The chicken skewers were incredible. So glad I finally went back! I love Caribbean food!!!
———————
I think my experience is a one off because this restaurant was so extremely busy during my reservation. It took ages for the server to take our order and it seemed the kitchen was pretty busy overall.
In general, the food was good but a lot of it did lack flavor. The presentation was nice. I’m pretty sure the food is better on other days and that our experience was just a one off. Nonetheless, I can’t get my partner to return because of the experience and lackluster food.

Doesn't seem to encourage take away orders - Edit
Having walked a long way to this restaurant for a takeaway, I was disappointed to discover that I may have needed to wait "up to an hour" for my food to be prepared - the person on the front desk could be no more specific - because priority in the kitchen is given to customers who eat in. This might be understandable, but for the fact that they charge the same regardless of whether a dish is bought to eat in or to carry out. At around £20 for a main dish this makes for an expensive takeaway for which you may need to wait a long time.
