Delicious food

I’ve been wanting to come here for months. I finally got the chance to visit recently. I ordered wings, some jerk and some southern fried, and curry goat with rice and peas. I enjoyed the southern fried wings, they were delicious. My curry goat was good as well. Knocking off one star because my curry goat was cold. The place is only 5 weeks old so of course they have their challenges. I would not hesitate to return. #Veganuary

Good food but a few teething issues

We went here for a birthday lunch, the food was really delicious although if I go again I would opt for a salad side as it’s all quite rich. Aside from the food it generally felt like they were still trying to get their act together a bit, everything took a really long time to arrive and came out of order. My friend found paper scraps in her glass, and my (paper) napkin had definitely been used before. Music was loud and unbalanced between tracks so sometimes we couldn’t hear each other at all, then the track would change & it would seem like we were shouting.

I do have to hand it to the staff, despite being short staffed they were friendly and helpful with the menu etc. I’m hoping these issues are just because it’s a relatively new place, and will get ironed out — they should because given the prices they are charging the general ambience needs a bit of work! #Veganuary

Pros: Delicious vegan food, Lots of choice

Cons: Expensive , Lots of small things went wrong!

Top notch Jamaican food

Absolutely delicious - the Jerk Chick'n wings are moist and tender and flavoured perfectly, and the curry "goat" is gorgeous, with a great serving of rice and pea, plantain and sweet potato. #Veganuary

Pros: Delicious 100% vegan Jamaican food

Cons: A bit pricey, but really worth it

Amazing Vegan Food

This was the best vegan Caribbean food I’ve had and possibly the best vegan fish I’ve had. The only reason I wouldn’t give it five stars is that the service was a little slow but they were so busy and it’s a new place so overtime this will improve!

Pros: All vegan

Yes but I feel like that was just a one off so wouldn’t want to bring their rating down

Great Spot

Really nicely decorated restaurant with friendly staff and good food (the chickn 'wings' especially)! Only area for improvement would be that the food is slightly more expensive than other comparable places, especially the desserts - where it should really be called a chocolate and *banana* not chocolate and guinness cake! Had a grand time overall though :)

Amazing

Delicious food, good service, nicely decorated restaurant. It was a pleasure to dine there, I really enjoyed the experience.
I had the stew with jackfruit and wild mushrooms. The texture and taste were just perfect.
Book in advance as the restaurant is busy. We were there on Wednesday night and it was fully booked.

Caribbean class

This new permanent home for Jam Delish offers an ambitious menu in a swanky teal and floral dining room with a seatdance-inducing 80s soul and RnB playlist.

"Goat" curry was the winning main dish at our table of three. The "fish" was so convincing it divided opinion! From the nibbles menu the mouthfuls of joy that are the mini festivals in fruity sauce would work just as well as dessert.

The high-end vibe (and pricing) provoked pickier assessment - waxy aubergine let down an otherwise dream skewer and I wish I'd been encouraged to order a sauce with it (loving that there's an extensive sauce menu!). Somewhere to hang wet winter coats would be nice.

But all this is nitpicking. Fancy vegan restaurants are a cause for celebration and this is a slick experience, especially for a brand new opening. I invite you to share my arduous 2023 goal to work through the menu.

So lovely

This food is some of the best I’ve ever had, I first tried it at vegan camp out, then went to find them in London and had such a good time. Lovely to try something a little different would highly recommend 🙂

Birthday meal- delish

I had come across jam delish when looking for places to go in London for a birthday weekend away as I’m from the north west and noticed they had limited residency at the sun and 13 cannons so made it a must to go after hearing great reviews from the vegan camp out

I was interested in trying a different cuisine and Caribbean took my fancy as I’ve never tried it before even pre vegan

The menu is incredible and I ended up going for a bit of everything
My non vegan parents even tried and couldn’t believe how realistic and good it was which was high praise indeed

Our server Lesley was so helpful and accommodating , I loved talking about their journey and big future plans so definitely one to watch out for

What I got :

Starters
- mix of chicken wings ‘ jerk , rum and bbq’ with edible sugar cane ‘bone’
- ‘Prawns 🍤’ with mango mayo


Main
Curry ‘goat’ made from Seitan and lentils with rice and peas / slaw

Sides
- Fried plantain / like fruity potato banana
- Mac and ‘cheese’
- Sweet festival dumplings - light and made from corn

To end the meal I was surprised with a complimentary dessert of Oreo cheesecake which was heavenly paired with vanilla ice cream I shared with my parents and blew out my candles which was a lovely gesture and even met the face behind the food

Overall a faultless experience and worth every second of the journey
I wish them all the best in their new residence coming soon

Incredible

Incredibly tasty food. Cannot believe how good the Mac & cheese was, the rice & beans and the cheesecake. So worth the travel, so worth the wait. Highly recommend this place, whether you’re vegan or not! Lovely staff members, two ladies serving us were both so kind and wonderful. 10/10 will be going again!!! Also really reasonable prices, especially for London. I paid £48 for 2 sides, 1 main meal, 1 dessert and a drink.

Pros: Good prices, Lovely staff , Delicious food

Cons: The pub the restaurant is in can be quite loud

Delish indeed

It's currently located inside a bar (13 cantons) so we can actually be seated. I of course ate the goat curry and it was succulent.

Pros: All vegan, Delicious , Lovely service

Cons: Coleslaw too salty

Delicious Caribbean cuisine

Myself and my discerning lunch guests shared the ackee and codfish, house slaw, rice and peas, jerk wings, mac and cheese, crispy prawns and scotch bonnet salsa. I love callaloo but sadly they were out.
Really enjoyed everything, flavours were 🔥 Also lovely staff and great cocktails.

Alternativa curiosa en pub inglés

Es un lugar bastante bonito donde comer vegano en un pub inglés. Disponen de bastantes opciones bastante ricas, pudiendo comer de forma “omnívora” pero vegano.
Disponen de “muslitos de pollo” súper curiosos. Eso si, si pides los picantes 🌶, pican de verdad (incluso demasiado).
También tienen un curry de “cordero” muy logrado y delicioso.
Por último, los mac & cheese. Riquísimo.

Pros: Opciones veganas muy curiosas. , Gran atención del personal. , Local muy bonito.

Cons: No es especialmente barato.

Mouth watering vegan Caribbean dishes you need to try!

My first experience of Jam Delish was at their current residency at the Sun & 13 Catons pub in the heart of soho.
I hope it is the first of many meals from this vegan company. I loved it!
It was difficult to decide what you have, but the jerk 'chicken' was obviously a must--and I could have eaten it twice, it was so, so good. They are similar to the faux ‘Chicken’ drumsticks often found at oriental supermarkets, but these are bursting with flavour and the sugar cane stick is a nice touch.
The menu has a wide choice, with some great side dishes too, including Mac and Cheese topped with toasted garlic and thyme, as sweet cornmeal fritters, rice and peas, and much much more! Such choice…
At their current residency at the Sun & 13 Catons pub, they have also developed some Caribbean cocktails to run alongside the menu.  
Check this place out for sure.

Pros: faux ‘Chicken’ drumsticks are incredible!, Central London location , All vegan!

Great food

I ordered a combo with Jerk Chicken wings, mutton and beef style curry with their rice with beans. I enjoyed it surprised that appearance of the chicken drumstick so realistic with a sugar cane used as a bike substitute. Tried them at Vegan Campout 2021. I was looking for ethic vegan foods! :)

The brother is a cuty!;)

Amazing!!

We tried a variety of foods and all of them were amazing. The flavours were spot on. Top picks were the mac and cheese and the jerk wings! The staff were super friendly and gave suggestions. Can’t recommend enough.
