Caribbean Kitchen Pot in Richmond upon Thames

My partner and I had an amazing meal at Caribbean Kitchen Pot. We ordered the jerk chicken, and it was bursting with authentic Caribbean flavor—perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service was great. We’ll definitely be back!

Very disappointed. Ordered a Takeaway meals . Which took extra time and arrived extra cold. The order was three meals and only received one full meal . Missing items as side orders. No concept of service or delivery of what’s on offer on the menu. A call to the restaurant who decided to blame it on the driver as he was busy. The disappointment was when they decided to refund £1.60 from £49.00 spend. Unsatisfied customers and felt cheated. No apology given. Not recommended at all .

We got a delivery yesterday, we ordered curry goat and oxtail with rice and peas. The food was although and eatable, however the rice was quite sweet and the curry’s was very runny but the meat was soft and succulent. I would have ordered it again. The next morning/day however my belly had been doing flips and I feel very nauseous. It’s the only new thing I had eaten that day. I’ve not had a bad belly like this in a very long time and can handle spice ect so it not because “it was spicy”. My son also had curry goat and he to has very bad belly so I’m not the only one. It’s a shame but I would pass!

Hit and miss carribean, Best carribean in the TW area, jerk is alright, fritters can be too salty and oily and sometimes really good. I would recommend going into central for a more consistent experience.

I just wanted to start off by saying the atmosphere and staff here are lovely, but I was so sad to return home and be left so disappointed by the food. The dishes were either far too salty or far too sweet, so you couldn’t enjoy any of the flavours behind it, we couldn’t taste any spice either. Me and partner both ate less than a quarter of the meal because of the saltiness in each dish. It was also disappointing finding out 3 things I had ordered over the phone were unavailable when I arrived. I wouldn’t have made the journey had I known before hand…I was hoping this was going to be a regular for us but sadly there wasn’t one dish we could recommend. The plantain was also unripe, so didn’t have that sweetness you’d expect it to have. I’m only leaving this review as we travelled quite a way and spent a lot of money for authentic food, only to be left lighter both in our pockets and stomachs. I hope the restaurant take on some of the feedback as the food could be great without overpowering them with salt and sugar. I can see the potential and maybe we just had a bad batch, but sadly we won’t be returning. All the best.

Had lunch in here. Staff on point food on point true authentic carribian. We had the fried chicken jerk chicken and a side of curry goat.... all was amazing. But the curry goat was exceptional

DO NOT EAT FROM HERE.. I had brown stew chicken.. I thought it was dodgy when eating but thought nothing of it, hours after I’ve been in the baddest way I’ve ever been!! Doctors said I’ve got food poisoning.. I order via deliveroo and they are investigating this for me.. I am feeling so rough! Don’t out yourself through this please and I was going to give my 1 year old some.. so happy I didn’t

We had a nice welcome into the restaurant and were given a table straight away. The food was very tasty, we ordered about 10 different dishes. From deep fried ginger and garlic prawns, curry goat, jerk chicken, and oxtail. Everyone was happy with their choice. Service was very good and atmosphere relaxed. I was so happy I had to personally congratulate the chef for his talent and must say that's the first time for me. The only suggestion to minimise workload for the restaurant is reconsider using those metal bowls for the rice as means extra washing up and sure people would be happy to have rice on same plate as the protein. I will be back.

Hard to rate this one, so please read carefully. We tried to visit this restaurant the week of the semi finals of England's euro match, turned up on Saturday evening at 8pm to find it closed, because they'd run out of food.....(something I've never heard of). Then we went on the following Saturday, so the day before the euros final, we called before turning up, asked if everything was available on the menu and we were told that it was. We turned up 1 hour later to be told that all the fish dishes weren't available (which is a 3rd of their menu), then the drink of the day wasn't available. The food that we had was great (oxtail, rice n peas, fried dumplings, and coleslaw), and the portions were adequate. It was just disappointing that so much of the menu wasn't available, and being a Caribbean restaurant, I'd always expect guiness punch to be available, especially if you're selling it for £5 a glass. So the food was great, but the deception wasn't appreciated. If they'd had more options, then we would've spent more money. Now you can hopefully understand why it was difficult to write a review.

Amazing dishes, great flavours and good value for money. Always cooked to perfection !

Would of been 5 stars but had ran out of curried goat and it was only 630pm so had to have jerk chicken instead but it was very nice

Fantastic curry goat as per usual. Everyone absolutely loved it!!!

The food is out of this world. I’d drive an hour for this in a heart beat.

Food is amazing, best in the area.

The curry goat was amazing, plantain portions perfect. Hardough bread was the perfect texture and they put butter on it!

I come here mainly for takeaways - it’s bloody amazing! So yummy, flavourful… I come all the way from Richmond to get my jerk chicken fix, definitely worth the drive and now they are on Deliveroo. The lady who runs the place is really lovely and makes me feel welcome. It’s just so great, definitely go check it out if you fancy some excellent food. Huge portions and great prices too. Do it!

I went there this afternoon for Lunch and it was honestly the best food. So fresh and good customer service. Highly recommended.

After having a few issues with a certain delivery service on a couple of online orders. I went to the restaurant in person to make an order to collect. Everyone was lovely and the food was awesome. My wife and I have just finished and thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The large portion size for the curry goat we had would of just done us both but I ordered 2 so the bonus we have some for tomorrow.

Amazing food , very friendly service . Looking forward to eating again

Family restaurant with authentic Caribbean food, warm friendly service and a real down home atmosphere

We are so lucky to have this in Whitton, I love this place. Always nice to have the jerk chicken and festivals. The goat stew is my dad’s favourite. Highly recommend

The Fried Chicken with rice and peas is superb, it is a little bit of Jamaica in Whitton. I can only recommend.

Can recommend the goat curry and whole fried fish. Both amazing and very resonably priced. The owners are very laid back, friendly and there's no rush to pay and leave once youve finished the meal. Looking forward to trying the peppered steak and fried chicken on next visit. Real plus it's a BYO to keep the cost down. Highly recommend for a casual dining experience.

Ordered from deliveroo meal for 2. We ordered curry goat tasty no issues We also ordered Ox tail, it was watery and very sweet.we struggled to eat it . Why put sugar in Ox tail . We love Caribbean food and many years we have been bought takeaway from different takeaway restaurants and dine in different restaurants. Never have we eaten or tasted sweet Oxtail , this is the first time. We ordered rice and peas perfect no issues. We ordered Coleslaw again very sweet why do that. If the resturants won't consider charging the sweetness please consider changing the name to ; - sweet Coleslaw -Sweet Ox-tail This so customers know its sweet and we have an option decide what flavour meals we want to buy . Rather than the disappointment when eating it. We ordered rum punch and this was not delivered. But we paid for all. Overall the the food is nice and tasty but most of the other food like Coleslaw and Oxtail were spoilt by the sugar content. That's not a healthy and tasty option.

My husband got us some take away as he was in the area on business. We had curry goat, jerk chicken, rice and peas, festivals and plantain. I think he said that he paid about £25ish for the lot. Very flavourful, great portion sizes and very authentic. We will be going back again when we are in the area. Thanks!

What a gem! Seriously authentic taste and homely surrounding with Bob Marley on tap.

Wow! This is the best Caribbean restaurant I have ever been to.. The flavours of each dish was amazing. Thank you Miranda. I will be be back with the family.

Saw great reviews about this place, so decided to go check it out! The customer service is amazing, the portions were really good and it was good value for money. The flavours were great, only issue was the jerk chicken was a bit too dry. We ordered two mains, two sides and two drinks which totalled to £45 altogether. We were struggling to finish our food, so had to take it home!

Excellent food but closed on Sundays!

Honestly the best genuine Caribbean food and the nicest people! Highly recommend, I’ve not had any better in my lifetime!

Pricey.. needs a little helper . But going in the right direction. . Proper Carribbean flavours. .

Amazing food, great atmosphere and friendly service. Was just like being on holiday :) Recommend greatly to everyone.

good service, good rice and peas, jerk chicken and pork is definitely made the day before or made early in the day and re heated and the plantain is always cold and dry as well.

Brilliant little independent place, tuck away off the High Street. Great food and great value for money, decent portion sizes, and flavoursome food. Only draw back, they don't serve alcohol (but you can bring your own) and there were a few items that weren't available from the menu that day. Very good menu, would be a good idea to offer half portions as side dishes, as I wanted to try it all. Great place, I will definitely visit again and can I say, that I'm a chef and have been for more than 25yrs, we are not easily pleased.......

What an absolutely stunning meal. I had curry goat, which was dark and rich with rice and peas that was so generous some people couldn’t finish theirs; I didn’t waste a spec though. The curry goat had those luscious bones with the little bits of meat still attached that you can’t resist chewing and picking out. Friends had the jerk chicken and the prawns, which were equally good. We were in Twickenham for Depeche Mode; sometimes I come for the rugby, but I’d come back again just for this meal.

Amazing food at reasonable prices. Be aware, large portions! If in the area again would definitely come back. Vegetable curry and goat curry delicious.

A happy family business with a great and happy chef. The staff are always welcoming and the price of food is very reasonable because the portions of food you receive is more than enough and would be able to feed two if required. Highly recommend if you love Caribbean food.

Back again: Honestly, I've been debating what my favourite food ever has been. There's this little place in the Andalucian mountains which does something amazing with streak; my dads lamb and spinach peanut butter stew is still beyond belief... and then there is the goat curry here. When paired with the dumplings, it's been amazing me everytime. I simply cannot recommend the Caribbean Kitchen Pot highly enough.

Food excellent . Pleasure to support our local businesses.

What an amazing find. Amazing authentic Caribbean food, as good as my parents! Which says a lot!

Curry goat is nice but that is all. This was my first Caribbean experience and I'm not sure if I want to try again. Jerk chicken had no flavour, the sauce carried it all the way. Mac and cheese has too much pepper.

A friendly, warm, family-run place, which offers authentic, first-class Jamaican cuisine prepared with great style, love and care. Definitely highly recommended.

Great food, great service First visit here since they had an online option and it's more impressive than before

Every time me and my partner eat from here it’s exceptional! From the portion size to pricing and the amazing Customer service we always receive By far the best Caribbean food around

We first discovered Caribbean Kitchen Pot when they first started delivering their delicious fresh homecooked food on a weekend. We love their place, with it's sunny decor, the food is as fresh and beautifully cooked as ever and it's always a treat.

Took a gamble as we were in the area after watching rugby at Twickenham. Friendly from the start. We had the ribs and jerk chicken with rice and peas, dumplings and festivals and they were incredible. Couple of drinks and cakes and it came to barely £16 each. Would absolutely go again, and would recommend to anyone in the area!

So pleased to have found this place whilst on a day visit, we had the curried goat with rice and peas and jerk pork with dumplings, so tasty and great service. The people of Hounslow/Twickenham are very lucky to have this on their doorstep!

Best Caribbean food outside the Carribbean! Scratch that... Might just be the best in the world! Don't miss out if you're on the way to the rugby!

We wanted to find somewhere to grab a bite to eat before heading to Twickenham Stadium for the rugby but didn’t want the bun fight that is Twickenham on match day. Really glad we found it. Wonderful fish and goat curry and the staff were so friendly. They don’t serve alcohol but if you want some you can take your own! Will definitely go back.

Nice establishment. Food was well presented. Loved it.

Enjoyed a delicious lunch here today, after a bit of a snap decision to go out. Very ample portion sizes, tasty food and friendly staff. What's not to like?

Heard alot about this restaurant so took a ride on my bike to try. Lovely vibes. Nice to have this in whitton. Had a salt fish pattie was very tasty. Definitely go back soon for a sit in dinner

Amazing food, lovely people, good vibes,happy customers. Really not much else to say, it's perfect.

Great food and friendly service. I particularly liked the goat curry which was recommended by the staff and a very popular takeaway item by the amount of orders which people picked up whilst I was there. The staff explained what all the dishes were as the menu is very authentic.

Food is always plentiful and nice. Service with a smile 😃

Nice service, nice food I will be going back with my family as they cater for vegetarians. The food reminded of Jamaica 🇯🇲

My daughter and I visited the restaurant yesterday. The food is absolutely fantastic. Miranda was so helpful when we asked about places to see on our visit. Big up to the chef. I highly recommend this place to anyone who appreciates real Jamaican food! Bless up!

After reading the reviews, we decided to drive the five miles from where we live to give it a try. We loved it! Kevin and his son Shaun run a cosy restaurant with very personal service. We had the drink of the day which Kevin made from june plum and pineapple juice, amongst others. Soooo good and not too sweet.My favourite dish was the fried fish, beautifully seasoned and so fresh with a crisp skin. Even my husband who isn’t a fish fan was fighting me for it lol. I also enjoyed the curry goat and my husband loved the jerk chicken, salt fish fritters and slaw. We will definitely be back to this little gem! Please support small family-run businesses like this one who cook from the heart and want to share their passion with us. We will be back very soon!

The workers were really nice and kind, with fast service. The food was also amazing!

Great friendly place for dinner. Came as a group of 7 and tried nearly all their dishes and could not fault anything.

Very tasty home cooked food in a homely setting. All our Caribbean favourites -loved the curry goat, ackee & saltfish & some lovely fruit juices too. Wish we'd found this place sooner & cant wait to come back to try some more dishes. Great value too.

This was by far the best oxtail meal I’ve ever had. I’ll definitely be back soon. Thank you so much for such a delicious meal. Compliments to the Chef!!

Brilliant food, brilliant service!

Very good. We shared the goat curry and rice, jerk chicken and the ribs. I’m stuffed, really tasty and good size portions. I was going to take some pictures but once it was on the plate we just dived in and ate. Will definitely be going back.

Loved it! Caters for meat eaters and for vegans too. Classic carribean dishes,good choice and smiles, what's not to like!

Oh yeah... Wonderful food 😏❤️❤️

It was my first time trying Caribbean food in Hounslow, as hounslow doesn't really have good Caribbean food. BUT this place Caribbean Kitchen pot is the freshest and best home homemade food you can find around here. Will definitely be a regular after this. I had a delicious, succulent Jerk chicken, one of the best jerk chicken's i've tried, seasoning and portion size was very generous. Mac and cheese was also very cheesy and creamy. I recommend this place for everyone. Good food and the staff are so kind and friendly. Will come back soon

Ordered from here for the first time. Unbelievable food taste & portion. Really good value for money & just overall top quality food. Will be a regular customer now so glad I decided to google caribbean food near me.

Finally tried their food after all these years going past and was blown away, bought a wide selection of stuff to try and the flavors lingered all through the rest of the day so delicious and found the owner lives a few doors up the road!, definitely be back to try more of the menu soon.

Its okish nothing spectacular jerk chicken is dry rub flavours only on the skin curry goat not bad but could be better

What a discovery, thanks to my friend Cynthia and her friend Hansa that this little gem has been discovered. Thank you for your honest home cooking, as my mum would make. I quite agreed with a previous reviewer...forget Turtle Bay where there is nothing authentic..keep your eye on the prize Caribbean Kitchen Pot.

Huge portions and great value. Gutted as was unable to try the prawns.

The food is to tasty for words, you are missing out if you do not fly down here and give this place a go!

What can I say, easily the best jerk chicken I've had in a long time! Real authentic flavors as the jerk is actually cooked on the BBQ. Will definitely be back and has made lockdown that much easier

The food was soo good, had the Mac and cheese and fried plantain and my friend had Jerk chicken and we both loved it.

Great portion size and tasty! Really enjoyed the food, can't wait to get it again!!

I had walked by this restaurant several times as I work in the area and finally decided to order something for my dinner, I ordered the ackee and salt fish, plantain and festivals. Plantain was lovely, fully cooked and sweet tasting as they should be, the festivals I felt were a little on the small side considering I had to order a large ackee and salt fish, however the did taste really nice. The ackee and salt fish was tasty, but unfortunately was 80% green/yellow/orange/red peppers and very little ackee and salt fish so was quite disappointed by this as I'm not use to having peppers in this dish which actually would have been fine if there had been more, a lot more ackee and salt fish. For me this dish was more peppers and onions, so wouldn't order this again even though it was seasoned well. I would order from here again, just not that dish.

Very tasty food will definitely come back

Oxtail is 100% sweet and sour sauce it even looked Like it before I Even got to taste it and when I asked the woman if this is oxtail because it looks like sweet-and-sour sauce she said yeah that’s just the oxtail sauce it is 100% sweet-and-sour sauce no doubt about it it taste horrendous

This spot obviously knows how to satisfy their customers. Constantly with a super nice approach. The food is fairly priced, regularly tasty and clean.

***** Excellent food to take away *****

A very lovely Caribbean meal, authentic as it is family homemade. Reasonable price as well.This is not our local as we live 30 plus mins away but it is now, as it is so worth the drive to get a decent and tasty Caribbean meal

It’s so hard finding good Caribbean food in this area but this restaurant is by far the best one! The food is delicious and packed full of flavour, the prices are reasonable and staff are very welcoming. I’d urge everyone to go to this place and experience their brilliant cooking.

LOVE all the food here so damn delicious - highly recommend

The best chicken stew I’ve ever had. Absolutely brilliant! Had it so quickly so I didn’t have a chance to take a picture lol. Nice service, decent portions. Definitely coming back to this place, although I live quite far away.

Amazing food - highly recommend

Great food, friendly service. Can't fault it. Am definitely going to be a regular.

Quality food everytime. Thought, passion and skill has gone into each dish!!! Amazing food as always!!!

Definitely worth a visit best Caribbean food for miles had quiet a few items off the menu and I recommend them all

I am very impressed with the Caribbean Kitchen Pot. The meals are absolutely delicious and I have tried several dishes. The service is also very good. The chef and his wife are both warm, inviting and friendly. I have enjoyed dining in and also their takeaway service. The meals are always on time which makes a huge difference. I would easily recommend this restaurant for a nice evening out ( post lockdown) or just the takeaway service. Great atmosphere!

Had my lunch from Caribbean Kitchen Pot today, Jerk Chicken, Rice+Peas and some plantain and dumplings on the side. It was really tasty and a LOT of food.

Small, tidy, well lit and almost hidden by the pub next door. You are welcomed with very vood friendly vibes from the owners and it took about 20 minutes for our food to be ready. We had the Jerk, curry goat and oxtail. The goat was tender and well spiced, the oxtail wa silky smooth and the chicken was well done, uncharred and tasty. The take away portions are generous and we will certainly return again and again. I think the owners will benefit from taking advantage of web analytics and delivery services and taking this 'Gem of Whitton' far beyond the TW2 post code area. Well done!

Oxtail, the worst I've ever had, and although a large portion, only 4 pieces of meet. Curry goat, THE BEST, I've ever had, and a generous amount of meet, very, very tasty. Rice and peas and cabbage, nothing to complain about. I'll definitely go back for the curry goat and maybe I'll try oxtail again...perhaps the chef had a bad day...I refuse to believe that someone who can cook a curry goat so good can get the oxtail so wrong...unless there are two different people cooking... I had oxtail from a lot of places they were all very good, some better than others, but this was at the other end of the spectrum...however, a big 👍 for the curry goat!

Friendly family run business with great food and great portions. We will definitely be back soon!

Now the kitchen pot is open again to sit in went for a meal hand wash track and trace and social distancing in operation but the food and friendliness remain the same it really is great to see a family run eaterie rather than a big organisation being so welcoming and efficient after such a tough year well done to the kitchen pot great food.

Since we have found this amazing place. There is no other option for a takeaway treat!The BEST Caribbean food weve ever had by far esp thd jerk chicken💯👌🤤❤!

Live round the corner but hesitated as am vegetarian. After being told how good it was by my son several times, he treated me to a take away. I couldn’t believe how much delicious food we got for his money. Callaloo, Mac cheese, fried plantain and rice and peas all delicious. His steak looked amazing. I’ll definitely be back with my husband!!

Great food, great drinks and great ambience! We have been to Caribbean Kitchen Pot several times now and we love it there. At our last visit, we had Ackee & Saltfish, Jerk Chicken, Sticky Barbeque pork ribs, plantain and delicious rum & raisin ice cream. They were all delicious and my husband also enjoyed the Guinness Punch very much. Thoroughly recommended!

Just had a meal of fish from the pot now it has reopened after covid absolutely beautiful as usual so happy its opened again with new outside decor but the great same people and great food keep up the good work.

Sat 11/7. 4 of us had a tasty curried goat takeaway, rice, peas, dumplings & plantains. Excellent food, good service and value for money. I highly recommend it.
