Best Caribbean food I’ve ever eaten in my life! I don’t go anywhere else and have been coming here since it opened all them years ago! Food is worthy of a Michelin star! The consistency of the food and flavours is second to none! How Maureen hasn’t won major awards for her food and service is beyond me! I will continue coming here for the rest of my time 😎👌🏽

I don't go anywhere else for Caribbean food ! Just being in there warms me I feel like I'm back home and the world isn't as stressful as it once was I Don't go often because unfortunately I live a little way out but when I do go I spend no less than 50 pound and get everything I can eat and then save it for the next day ! The service is beautiful as always there really is nothing bad to day about Maureen's don't go anywhere else for authentic Caribbean food this is it !! And I'm jamaican I know 😍🇯🇲

When we first started going to Maureens, well over 10 years ago, we lived in Leeds. We have now lived on the N.E. Coast for nearly 10 years, but we still go back to Leeds every 2 to 3 months, and our first port of call is to stock up on Jerk chicken with rice, peas and gravy (a spicy sauce) and/or curried goat at Maureens. Do not be fooled by the out of town location or the unostentatious building, this place offers astonishing food (mainly as a take-away). If you have never experience Caribbean cuisine before, you really need to give it a try, and Maureens is where you will find the real deal. It is hard to describe the tastes because there is nothing else that compares! The jerk chicken is the dish to start on, but everything that they offer is incredible. The portions are “large” and all the food is cooked fresh. Also, the owner really is called Maureen and she and everyone else there are friendly and helpful. If you have never had Caribbean cuisine before, then I strongly recommend that you give it a try. In our opinion this place is the number one hidden gem when it comes to food in Leeds.

Food was lovely and the atmosphere was fine ~ came all the way from Sheffield to try Maureen's Caribbean Cafe. Getting the food was quick. Unfortunately it was the service that was a let down, couldn't hardly hear the young girl behind the counter, telling me what was available even though I told her I could not hear she still insisted talking very quiet (must be a young generation thing) Maureen herself was very highly spoken and forthcoming and possible realised on the situation. Will visit again as I said food was lovely and the meal was under £10.00

Maureen's what can i say the food is a hit and miss used to be much better standards surely have dropped. Also reason for mainly giving 1 star is the comment that the person on tills made after i placed my order. " wohoo we getting the black mans grub today" food should not define color but cuisines

Well after all the hype of this place being the best in Leeds would be if you could ever get any, been to this place a couple of times even though it states open it's closed when you get there , so this time I thought right I'll order on Uber eats a order over £40 and pre ordered so it wasn't a rush job, order was accepted at 15.30 for delivery at 18.30!, Sat there looking forward to finally getting to try the best Carribbean food in Leeds apparently to then at 17.45 for it to be cancelled, what's the point accepting it to then cancel it?. Was alright to serve people when going to be on a poplar persons YouTube account but hey ho will try elsewhere instead. Tried 3 times clearly don't want people's business.

First of all I don't know why there are so much 5 stars?? Anyways I went inside to eat in and first impressions the tables and chairs were dirty, the tables were wooden so it would stain even more and the floor boards were peeling off, the window sides had a bit of mould and dust, the decor? There was none. Uncomfortable to sit in and very small sitting area, they need to deep clean more. The food was okay the chicken was nice and soft tho and the food pricing was good to be fair, but after I ate I had a bit of a stomachache which never happens to me, and the rice was soggy and I don't think most of the food was fresh because I saw the person working there put food in the MICROWAVE and I heard the microwave *ting* multiple times. Customer service? There is none tbh If your thinking to sit in there and eat... just don't, get the food for takeout, but then again the food isn't all that Sorry to say first time coming here and it will be the last. They need to improve on the hygiene and eating in area A TON. Also in the other reviews I see cleaner tables and steel forks and tissue and plates... I did not get that NONE of those, just got a takeout box and PLASTIC fork and spoon and no tissue.

Came in today and got the small jerk chicken with peas and rice and two fried dumplings. Food was delicious and you get this sauce like gravy to accompany the chicken and chicken was not dry. Alot of the carribean places many foods get sold out such as patties or curry mutton etc. Food is halal (as researched and seen on just eat advertised as halal) and it would be great if Maureen's can promote that so for those who would like to taste her food and taste a different cuisine can freely do so (not that I'm saying you can't anyhow). A halal sticker on her shop front will make it alot more accessible for people who can just walk in knowing its halal. Food is on point when coming to the chicken. Will be coming to try something else in coming days. Only downside is I don't know if they will have certain dishes as they sell out. Thanks guys Much appreciate your service. Its daunting for me to come to a new place.

Saw a YouTube clip from Rate My Takeaway, on Maureen’s & decided to give it a go, having had a few holidays in the Caribbean, we love (authentically cooked) Caribbean jerk chicken - and this place did not disappoint.

Most probably one of the best Caribbean spots in England when it comes to authenticity. Having travelled to most the major cities to try Caribbean food i find myself continually drawn back to Maureen’s. The jerk is always fresh and moist and the curries thick wnd luxurious like I’m used to back home. To top it all off they have kept prices very affordable and the quality high.

Lovely place in Grand Arcade, we went before seeing a show at the Grand Theatre. The host and hostess were very nice and charismatic people, fun banter. We decided on tapas and got a recommendation as well for one when we could not make up our minds. Very delicious, my favorite was Bollos De Yucca as I had never tried cassava root before. I thought it was very unique that everything was made to be gluten free. And the Caipirinha was magnificent! Many thanks from the Yank :P
