First time at Roots and I can say I will definitely be back, the food was amazing and the service was just as good, especially Jay who made sure everything was okay and advised me on the menu as I wanted to avoid anything spicy! Will definitely be back!

Not our first review. Always reliable and fun place to take friends for food and booze. Food is always beautifully cooked, on this occasion I had a slight issue with my meal and rather than trying to rectify the plate they had given me they gave me a new meal despite my pleading to make a small change, and then struck it from the final bill! They also carefully advised on the menu for my wife who has a health issue. Cannot thank the team enough for the attentive service.

We went on a Thursday evening, 2 for 1 cocktails and 50% off food was the offer of the day. Great friendly and attentive service also they did a great job advising me what to order due to a certain food intolerance I have. Food and drinks were lovely and the very chilled atmosphere made us feel very welcome and eager to go back.

Great meal at Roots. Food very authentic. Atmosphere buzzing and lively. Fun relaxed environment. Jay one of the staff was very entertaining and friendly. Phil helped us through the menu and made good suggestions. The chicken fillet with arawak sauce was amazing. I added some hot pepper sauce which was wow hot but delicioussssss. We also had oxtail with rice and peas. Very authentic and tasty. Sadly no desserts or fish dishes Definitely come again!,!

I went to roots when it first opened pre covid, years ago! And going back now, it's just gotten better. Lovely atmosphere, beautiful food, presented stunningly. The atmosphere is chilled, and open to any occasion. Took my kids (17 year old twins) and it was simply perfect. Son has lamb chops, my pescetarian daughter had the shrimp, and as I eat small amounts (barbaric surgery 6 years ago) I ordered from the small bites menu and was stuffed! Highly recommended, perfect for a midweek chill out meal, or a weekend night out.

Took the wife and kids, it was busy night as there was a live music session on and it was Notting Hill carnival weekend . The atmosphere was lively and the vibes was good. They gave us a table upstairs away from the bar, the food was delicious and came in excellent time with plantains and rice and peas cooked to perfection. Decor was properly authentic and resembled the Carribeans style very closely. Great food and very good tentative service. Wouldn’t recommend it for very young children after 6/7pm as it becomes a rocking bar but 100% recommend a visit here for food rum and vibes

We got takeaway cocktails. They managed to make 18 cocktails in less than 15 minutes which is impressive in itself. Had a convoy of two staff members come with us to put drinks in the car and suggested their best idea of how to get them back without spilling anything. Cocktails tasted great, could definitely taste the rum, just how we like our drinks!!

Delicious and good value Jamaican themed bar with tasty food and great cocktail deals. I never go wrong by asking the barman for his recommendation of a tasty rum cocktail - from a classic Dark & Stormy to a quirky Dandy Sailor, they have never failed to please. The colourful surroundings have a beach rum shack feel. The food tastes of real ingredients with a kick of Carribbean heat. A seriously good place to hang out.

Absolutely disgusting behaviour from the owner tonight. As I approached tonight to take my 3 son's one of there girlfriend and one of there friend's witch bearing in mind is autistic (and he turned up on his motorcycle). I was some what behind them and the owner was stood out side with his dog. I witness the manager talking down to them as he thought that the motorcycle was pinched !!! Bearing in mind the lad was in his full motorcycle clothing but ran up with my 14yr old son. As I approached he started to tell me this at witch point he started to say to the lad with autism get down the alleyway and then said the same to my 18yr old son. At witch point I had to step in. Then he started to say to us all that he would take us all down the alleyway. To be honest the behaviour of this from a restaurant owner was disgusting all because they ran up with a motorcycle. If this is not judgemental then I don't know what is. This guy literally tried to pick on kids (young adults) as I don't belive he would try that with a few adults. This place needs avoiding at all costs !!!!!!!!

The staff are very friendly and go out of their way to accommodate you quick service not the biggest choice on the menu but foods really good and hot nice portions. Plenty of cocktails to choose from they are even better than the food. There a few big tables so can get a few round them definitely going back

Google advertises this business as open until 12 a.m. this is the first time I've ever contacted them to place an order I rang up at 10 a.m. two hours before they advertise closure, I'm guess what thet was already closed!!, What a total joke the first time a customer contacted them with their business to order food and they are closed, not a good start at all I hate it when this happens if businesses done run their operation correctly are closed early then people will go elsewhere like I am doing now first point of contact and this happens, not good enough update your website or Google page it isn't hard as customers will go elsewhere when you let them down on what you are advertising has been open

As soon as we walked in we was rushed to order food and drinks, we spend £25 and most our food was burnt, we complained to find out it was the cleaner cooking the food not the actual cook, as the cook hadnt turned in!!! Hope he has his food safety and hygiene certificates!!
