Loved it here. We came mid-week, but this place was busy so would recommend booking a table. Great atmosphere and service was friendly throughout. Both my husband and I went for the jerk chicken leg (with an extra piece of chicken...). This was delicious - the chicken fell off the bone, and the gravy had a great depth of flavour. There was also a good chilli kick too. It wasn't really hot, but the chilli built up throughout the course of the meal. The chicken came with rice and beans and fried plantains - and we also ordered some coleslaw too. Everything worked well together. Would definitely come back here again to try some of the other meals on the menu, and some of the cocktails too!

Fantastic! I have been here maybe 5 times now. Once on Valentine?s and once for my birthday. The food is delicious, good cocktail?s especially during happy hour. Lovely staff and a great vibe to the restaurant (not too quiet or loud).

I?ve heard great things about this place so was excited to try out the jerk chicken. However, was absolutely horrified to see that the kitchen was full of plastic containers and there was a queue of them waiting to be microwaved (whilst the stoves behind them had no food on). I proceeded to watch them open an ice cream box filled with pre cooked fried chicken which was then microwaved. I honestly thought I was seeing things until a waitress walked through the main door with a huge stack of plastic boxes containing already cooked food.. where did she get those from?! Table of 6 with various orders had finished their food within 30mins of being seated! The food was soggy as it wasn?t fresh, especially my friends mushy vegetarian aubergine dish. Staff were nice and friendly but the food was shocking. Will never return.

Absolute scoundrels. Charged £25 for a can of cider and a 4 pack of tinnies.. when it says the price on the pack.. unbelievable. This is completely illegal practice.\\n\\nInteresting to see I?m not the only victim of this too.\\n\\nPreying on drunk revellers who won?t notice until next day.\\n\\nWell, I?ve got your number now. Won?t be back at this place again. Will also be making sure I spread the word.\\n\\nAnd I will be reporting to trading standards. I suggest others here who have been ripped off should do the same.\\n\\nThis business does not deserve to be allowed to continue operating.

I live in Manchester and was visiting Bristol for the weekend end of June/beginning of July and a Bristolian work colleague of mine who now lives in Manchester recommended this place to me, he knew I'd be interested in this place as I am of West Indian/Caribbean descent, I was brought up on Caribbean food, and I was in town for The St Paul's Caribbean carnival. I was not disappointed, in fact it exceeded my expectations. Food was LOVELY, DELICIOUS!! If anything I had too much of it and was VERY bloated afterwards and needed to drink plenty of water then go for a long walk to recover. I probably should have just ordered a main course but I wanted to make the most of this place that I had heard so much about and I was not disappointed at all. FIVE STARS from me. I was there during happy hour too, and was two for one Guinness Punch, I LOVE Guinness Punch and the Guinness Punch here was lovely... I will be thanking my Bristolian work colleague for telling me about this place.

My very first review on TA falls to the Caribbean Croft round the corner from the hotel I stayed at. First visit, lone diner, looked after very well indeed. Its clear there's a very good FOH team right now that commununicate with each other and cracking service. I chose the Croft Combo dish, for me that was a showcase on offerings. All good but outstanding for me was goat curry. I want that recipe! May or may not have drunken a few cocktails (missed out on two for one, my bad!) but heyho an excellent night. Really enjoyed my visit. I blamed my hangover the next day on somewhere else. An excellent night really enjoyed, thank you.

Me and my partner have been here quite a few times now and everytime it's bee great! There was one time that we were quite rushed but then I did book the meal on Sunday a couple of hours before they closed. Booked again for my birthday meal and made sure to book earlier. Staff are lovely, open kitchen and beautiful drinks and especially the food. Must have tried around 8 different options on the menu by now!

Definitely one of our fave restaurants in Bristol! Food is incredible and always delicious. We?ve been having the combo meal in recent trips and it?s worth every penny.

Wow, found this place on the off chance and managed to get a table which was earlier than we wanted but so glad we booked it. Myself and partner love Caribbean food and this really is soul food at its finest, because both my soul and belly were full. We walked out really happy and satisfied with our date night. I ordered the combo of jerk chicken, curry goat and jerk pork with a side of dumplings and the flavours were unreal, portions are very good too. My partner ordered the jerk chicken with a side of dumplings and nothing was left. Staff were very friendly and the restaurant has a really good vibe about it. We will be back for more.

Got the Croft trio so got a variety of dishes. Absolutely huge portion that I didn?t come anywhere near finishing but the belly pork, jerk chicken and curry goat were all absolutely amazing, and reasonably priced too. Very good service, nice atmosphere and the fried festival dumplings are a great side just in case you?re feeling hungry!
