Comie's Caribbean Grill in Oxford

Vale la pena tomar un taxi desde el centro de Oxford solo para experimentar la increíble comida en este pequeño bar y restaurante de Carribean. Todo lo que probamos fue delicioso, desde el curry de cabra hasta las albóndigas. El servicio era de primera categoría también. Un viernes por la noche, el reggae se puso fuerte. Que eso añada o reste valor a la atmósfera es muy personal, pero ciertamente no nos desanimó.

Best Jamaican food in Oxford and around ! You will never find a more authentic taste anywhere else!

Food was bland, jerk chicken was a chicken leg and rice. Draught beer not on so had to buy a bottle which was more expensive than a pint. And would nit giv3 ne a tax receipt. Avoid.

Ordered a large order two days in a row, specifically asked if they had what we wanted and they replied yes and on both days just substituted to another random dish?? One person in the group could have been in hospital had they eaten the substitute. When told this, they did exactly the same the next day!

Delightful experience., Friday nights are special club nights, food is great, international beers available and prices are fair.

Great friendly service, Fabulous food ,good portion size. Definitely be a regular from now onwards

SCAM Waited over 2 hours for a delivery that wasn’t even coming! DONT ORDER FROM HERE!

Ordered at 5.30pm, food wasn't delivered until gone 7.30pm. Despite delivery time stating between 35 to 50 mins. Really disappointing, this is the second time we've had this problem. Also, ran out of dumplings but still charged for them.

Very lively place. Good drink, good food and good music

We enjoyed our food and service was good

THE BEST! We live in swindon and will travel anytime for this food. Big portions and full of authentic flavour! ✨️

Ordered online on deliveroo. I called up to inform them of a gluten allergy as they add complimentary mac and cheese to the meal. Was informed this would all be OK. When the meal arrived it came with the mac and cheese. Therefore meaning I couldn't eat the meal. Normally quite like this place but clearly there's terrible allergy procedures which is unfortunate.

What an absolute treat to have this restaurant recommended to us by a friend . The authentic food is to die for , the staff very friendly and the laid back atmosphere makes the whole experience wonderful . We will be back !

2hrs and still waiting never use this company again

Great food, fast service. Highly recommend!

Amazing find whilst on a stag do. Beautiful place and the people there were lovely and really welcoming. Prices were very reasonable and the curry goat was amazing 👌👌👌

Superb. Went in for a quick lunch, ended up staying for drinks too. Went back in the evening for some music and some beers. Great atmosphere and brilliantly friendly staff. I’d happily drive back to Oxford for the curry goat. 👌🏼

Great portion, always fresh. I always get the jerk chicken main with extra jerk sauce. Price is not too bad. Def got me as a regular customer !

I love this place, finally found a good Jamaica/African restaurant.

Goat curry was amazing. Me & my fiancé love it. We will return soon. Gee is very friendly and nice.

Outstanding. Comie's is a must try. You will not believe the quality & freshness - accompanied by first class service. Portion sizes are very generous.

My first girlfriend had parents from Barbados and Grenada. Her mum was an excellent cook, who made me fall in love with the flavours from the West Indies and Carribean. I have spent the last few decades searching for well cooked food to remind me of the time I spent with them. Yesterday, I decided to pop in to Comie's after passing it many times on my way in to Oxford. I ordered curry goat (my favourite), with a side of scotch bonnet hot sauce. It was by far the best curry goat Ive ever had. The flavour was full, yet subtly balanced. The goat was so tender, it melted in my mouth. I was instantly taken back to my younger years, which brought up many happy memories. I will most definitely be stopping by Comie's when Im in the neighbourhood. Next time I'll try the jerk chicken. Thank you for the wonderful food, and helping bring back wonderful memories. Im your new biggest fan.

Amazing food always cheers comie and crew keep up the outstanding work

the food was absolutely 💯 amazing. Will definitely order again and recommend 👌

IF YOU LIKE TO EAT YOUR FOOD WITH LOTS OF DRUNK PEOPLE OR IF YOUR ALCOHOLIC YOU SHOULD FIT IN WELL!!!

Really delicious food in a lively atmosphere, I'd been craving Caribbean food after moving from a city with a big Caribbean community and was not disappointed with Comie's! Wonderful brown stew chicken, quick service (though it wasn't very busy in there when I went) and very friendly staff, I'll definitely be returning.

Great place for family and friends to enjoy delicious food and drinks 🍸

One of my favourite food establishments in Oxford. The food is delicious and the portion sizes are very generous. Good value for money a regular meal box is £10 and large is £12. There is a vegetable curry if you are vegetarian that is very delicious as well as multiple meat options.

Muito boa a comida, comida forte em sabor

Good food, good portion size, and good service (although we only collected).

Brilliant place to eat and chill, this is now my daily Friday hangout joint to start my weekend started💯👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿

Variety of Jamaican and African food choices,clean and lively environment,highly recommend

Quirky and lovely warm friendly service. Food excellent. Menu a little bit uninformative.

Fabulously welcoming and great food. Reggae vibe, had a great evening Very reasonable price, great cocktails. thankyou x ( stayed at Premier Inn Cowley & it's very close by. Recommended)

The best Carribean food we have had in a long time. We go back here as often as possible. It has an authentic, welcoming atmosphere and the service is very friendly. The food is absolutely phenomenal. We love Comie's!

Only recently found this gem of a place, and well where do I start? Bright surroundings,great music and super friendly welcome x as a food lover I was lost with what to order, everything looked lush and the smells from kitchen were insane 😍 goat curry....banging! Jerk chicken.....oh wow 👌mac cheese ....dreamy, rice n pea..... on point 👉 100% recommend anyone trying this place, I'm defo going again, n again n again n again 😊

What an experience! This was some of the best food I’ve had for a while!! I can’t wait to go back 😍 the fried chicken and the jerk chicken were both incredible, massive portions and the flavour was out of this world. We also ordered Plantain and dumplings but they were the first to go - everything was so delicious and steaming hot. Can’t wait to come back and try the curry!

Second time I’ve visited, great Jamaican food, we tried the curry goat and jerk chicken. A little more mac and cheese please !! Worth a visit, pain that parkings a bit annoying would be great to make it a bit more accessible as it deserves to be busier!

Tossed a coin between this place and other Caribbean restaurants.Good food. Chilled atmosphere on a quiet Thursday night at 8pm. No plantain, not a deal breaker though. Will go back again when I’m in town.

I came here with my friends and we all really enjoyed it. We ordered the Jerk Chicken Meal, Curry Goat Meal, and the Lamb Chops meal. The portion sizes were good, and everything was very tasty. The outside and inside of the restaurant are decorated nicely, the music was great, and our waitress was very helpful. I did have to try a couple of times to make a reservation as the phone line was busy. We parked in the retail park and walked to the restaurant. Overall, it's a great spot, I would definitely come back.

Perhaps the worst food service I have ever encountered. Ordered at 5:20, said delivery by 6:20. We get a call at 6:22 saying it will be ready in 2 minutes, rang them at 7:30 to enquiry and the lady on the phone was like “I don’t know how long it’ll be. I just started my shift. The driver has your food.” Avoid if you’re ordering at the weekend, or for more than one person. Gave them so many chances, but after so much poor service, I had to let others know.

Fabulous cuisine. Vibrant atmosphere with wonderfully warm hospitality!

Life is good after eating at this place - Such a sweet lady who served us and made our food! Every time I’m in Oxford I will make sure to eat here or at least pick up something to take back to London… This place shows the LEVELS 🙌🏽 Curry Goat, Dumplings, Jerk Chicken, Lamb Chops wow wow wow - can’t wait to try the Ackee and Saltfish next time and probs the Jollof too. Thank you Miss

The delivery s just rubbish.. they can not make it up after i ve waited 2 h for my food! 2 hours!!!!!! Is just insane! They person who took my order told me 30 -40 mins to be delivered .. poor very poor service! Its a shame!

I didn't notice any Caribbean menu. I had a breakfast bap + cuppa and it was excellent.

The curry goat and the salted fish were fantastic. They came in large portions with rice & black beans and cabbage. Nice atmosphere and very good service!

Isi-Ewu, Nkwobi, Nigerian Jollof, Suya, Puff-puff, etc, you will love it 😍.

Great and tasty food, lovely ambience and superb hosts.

I find their delivery offer is a scam as no food has arrived nor have they answered their phone to give me an explanation for the delay. I place the order at 13:00 on the yo-yo app. They open at 14:00 on Sunday , so I received an email saying there would be a delay and that food would arrive at 15:15. It’s 15:40 now and there is no sign of the delivery. The payment has been made and there is no option to cancel and order food elsewhere. Please don’t order food for delivery from this place

Good food and friendly staff 👌 😋

The atmosphere is wonderful. I was a bit disappointed with the jerk chicken, though.

It's my third visit to this establishment, and I must say it evokes a deep sense of nostalgia for my beloved home. The staff members are simply delightful, and I would highly recommend it to anyone with a passion for exploring new culinary experiences.

Amazing food. Filling full of flavour!

Nice place to visit for your Nigerian food too. No regrets with my order.

Good lord, but the food here is good. Tiny, unassuming, and totally authentic. Every meal comes with a little slice of amazing mac and cheese - a head scratcher on the menu, but when you eat it it's like home. Everything on the menu feels like it's made with love. Will definitely be back, the food was incredible.

Ordered Goat Curry and Jerk chicken. All are feet tasty with generous portions. The goat curry slightly edged it for me

Over priced and some of the worst Caribean food I’ve had

We went for dinner here one evening and it was fantastic, really lovely and attentive servers and delicious authentic food! The curry goat, jerk chicken and veggie curry were all great as were the dumplings!

Disgusting ! This is not authentic Caribbean food !! Oxtail was all hard with a terrible taste. Fried chicken was a 3/10! Plain nothing to it . Got the 3 for the chicken being cooked that’s it. Even the rice ! How can you possible go wrong with rice ? Overall I wouldn’t even give this place a 1 star. Believe me do not waste your time going ! You’ll have a better experience at kfc

Staff are very welcoming and make you feel comfortable and special. Mouth watering 😋 food served and amazing portions. Worth the visit and will definitely come again. Highly recommended 👌

The food here was great, the price was great and the service friendly. Well worth popping in if you are nearby.

Saturday afternoon, no background music, no atmosphere. Microwaved chicken, rice, mac and veg. Not worth a fiver let alone 15.

Only had a takeaway but the place is clearly a great place to be with a great atmosphere. The food we had, however, was not well flavoured. A flat, boring sort of taste. Didn't stand out. So unfortunate!

Great food, welcoming staff and fantastic value.

Lovely food and a great service!

The food is good by the they’re unreliable and tbh abit lazy, it’s a shame because they have potential

Food was delicious, and as a Jamaican, I was very judgmental

Lovely little resturant! Very friendly staff, pleasing decor, delicious food and plenty of it. Eaten here twice this week; curried goat, then lamb chops, wiped the plate clean both times. My friends very pleased that I introduced them to the resturant. Eat here!

Made me very happy today… fantastic food would highly recommend.

Great lil place to have food, or take away. Great food cooked in house and very good selection of beers. Friendly, fun personnel.

Absolutely amazing. Portion size : pricing ratio is fantastic, service and atmosphere is great. Will definitely be coming back.

By far the best Jamaican restaurant I've been to, they were extremely friendly. The ackee and salt fish was to die for and portion size was a lot bigger than I expected it.

It was ok but I've had better from here before, the meat was a bit dry and there were signs everything had been microwaved in the polystyrene container.

Authentic Jamaican food. Look no further

Absolute disaster. Probably should’ve change my mind when I walked in to pick up my food and saw the state of that place. Dirty menus and tables even though it wasn’t busy. I took the food home and there were pieces of mac n cheese (which I didn’t order) in my rice. Food was dry and tasted so bad I couldn’t finish it. And after all that it gave me stomach problems. Stay away from this place.

You can see for your self top quality. I Spoke to the lady prior to my call and she was very very friendly. The portions where huge. Massive chunks of meat that was extremely tender. The curry was so flavourful. I had delivered 2x lamb chops and 2xcurry goat. This was so so authentic and made with absolute love and passion and piping hot. If you looking for a home Cooked meal that ticks all the boxes try comies. The macaroni was so creamy and well baked and It was not greasy or chewy. Amazing

Very well priced, good service, and most importantly the food was unreal!! A Cute little spot tucked away in Oxford. I'll be coming here again, and advise others to do the same!

Food is not freshly made as advertised, it’s frozen and kept in stock until being microwaved for 3 mins. Even rice isn’t freshly made. No thermometer are used to check meat is properly cooked through. Absolutely appalling!! Disgusting.

All food is reheated in microwaves and left on the side for hours until a customer orders including the chicken. There cutlery isn’t dirty, menus covered in food and hand touch points clearly not sanitised.

Very poor. Cold, soggy and tasteless.. not what I expected at all! Then it was topped off by being accused of not paying when I did. Absolute joke

What a find. Stayed at the premier inn nearby and took my partner here after reading about this place on tripadvisor. So cheap and cheerful, we had the goat curry which was great but the star of the show was the dumplings.

Gave me and more so my friend as they ate more, very bad food poisoning. It was very old meat, smelled rotten and the mac and cheese was clearly made weeks before as was stodgey sort of like a rubber cube, everthing was coated in grease and fat, and I noticed they laughed at me as they handed it over. I know what people will say about my review but I love Carribean food, but this was not that. This was rotten ready meals.

Friendly waitress, but that’s where it ended, The plastic covered menus were dirty, The very limited menu was not the same, that was seen on the website. The food did not taste very good, no real hint of Jamaican food. I’ve never seen slices of Mac n cheese. The rice was not hot, neither was my veg curry. Our evening was expensive, and disappointing. We will stick to home cooked, or back to Spiced Roots.

Great food and service! We booked a table for 6 and were very well looked after.

Friendly relaxed atmosphere, food was amazing and big portion sizes. Fab cocktails too!

We were just passing through and had the most delicious experience! The traditional meals were yummy and portion sizes were very generous 😋 👌 They do not serve cocktails, but we got treated to a sweet homemade improvised rum punch 🍹 very friendly and relaxed atmosphere. we will definitely be coming back.

Tasty food. Would definitely return.

Delicious, authentic, and massive portions. The service was warm and generous- they opened up early when we knocked on their door, following our noses towards the delicious smells. The ackee and salt fish was amazing- spicy and flavourful, and my husband’s jerk chicken was excellent. And the dumplings were to die for. The restaurant is nice, clean, and welcoming. Highly recommend!

We had a lovely lunch here with kids and friends. Fantastic food, super friendly staff and excellent atmosphere! We will certainly come back - or just collect and eat home if we are busy. Very happy that we found this place.

I have never eaten such a disgusting meal in all my life. I ate 3 mouthfuls and suffered a severe bout of stomach issues lasting 4+ days. Quite possibly food poisoning. I ordered curry goat and a side of mac & cheese. The rice and peas were thick with grease the curry goat meat was sinewy and full of stringy fat. The Mac & cheese was very odd and came in stodgy slices The slaw was simply shredded veg coated in meat fat. I was very disappointed as I heard commies was good. I

We had a lovely time here kids were really happy and the lady did a fantastic job in looking after us Highly recommend

Great Caribbean food reasonable price The jerk chicken was wicked

Nice little restaurant. Food was excellent

Stay away from this place ! Ordered a chicken curry with rice & peas. Got delivered 2 burnt pieces of chicken on dry rice. Tempted to take it back today & watch them eat it 😡

I Wont be returning I was ripped of with the curry goat. Mainly bones

Couldn't believe how wonderful it was. We had oxtail, fried chicken and goat curry and all were completely delicious. Very generous portions and excellent price too.

Big portions, drinks were really reasonable (£6 for a double with mixer) quick service, food was tasty

Really enjoyed the peppered steak. The music and atmosphere was very good and all friends enjoyed their food too

Delicious food, big portions, friendly staff, cosy interior! If ordering takeaway, it comes in styrofoam boxes though :(

Great service, super delicious food, we had the goat curry, jerk chicken a side of plantain and a side of dumplings which are perfect to soak up the goat curry sauce. Fantastic everytime!
