    Me and my partner Really enjoyed our Anniversary Meal here. We opted for the Valentine’s Day 3 course set Menu! From starter, to main and dessert. The food was absolutely delicious, Baklava was Devine. They make the most perfect mojitos(had to get 2!) and have the tradition Mythos Beer. It made us feel like we were in Greece again! We would highly recommend and we will definitely be back to try the À la Carte menu next time! Staff were amazing and very attentive. The whole restaurant is very beautiful with lovely decor to match the vibe of a Greek Taverna. Thank you so much for a lovely evening.

    This was our second visit here and once again very impressed. It was quite busy when we got there and we were concerned service might have been slow but we had no need to worry it was great. One of the party was gluten free eater and they were very accommodating to this need double checking on what was suitable. Food was amazing, staff were fantastic and very reasonable!! Thanks for a great birthday evening (we didn’t divulge that info for fear of my embarrassment)

    Went to Caribbean & Cocktails for my husband's 60th birthday. From the outset we were looked after by our lovely waitress Reme (sorry if wrong). Menu was clear and served pretty quickly. Food portions were plenty & filling. I had the lamb chops, well seasoned and the rice&peas lovely. Hubby had the jerk burger with chips. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Cocktail hour us between 5-7. I had the Zombie . Loved it. I brought a cake for husband's birthday and staff brought it out and sang happy happy with music in background. Was so good. Alsongivdn complimentary drinks & the owner came out to speak to us & other guests to check we was enjoying our experience and comfortable. Venue was beautifully decreasing to reflect the Jamaican ambience. Toilets also clean & maintained. Considering they have only been open for 7 weeks. The whole staff came out and gave us a fantastic time and experience...especially the music choices. Highly recommend and will definitely be going back. Good luck Ricky. Wife and the team. Thank you 🙏🏿🙏🏿
