This weekend I just happened to be doing some errands in town centre and as I was walking by this restaurant I could not help but notice the lovely smell coming from it's kitchen. So out of the blue we decided to give it a go to this caribian food restaurant, it looked interesting as it was going to be out first time to try the food from that side of the world.
I have to say that we have enjoyed the experience pretty much, everything has been top notch.
The atmosphere in this restaurant is really relaxing, with the background music that is there if you want to listen to it but it does not interfere in your conversations, that's really nice.
The service was fantastic and they have made a really pleasurable experience.
Food was really tasty and me and my wife had generous plates.
There are a few beers to choose from, but it is the rum menu what rally makes a difference, we'll try next time.
Overall very nice eatery.
I like it and recommend it, please give it a go yourself.
Vegan platter was excellent but big enough for 2 at lunchtime, very friendly staff, good vibes.
Plantain and fried dumpling on the side was good too.
Love this restaurant, had my partner birthday celebration here and sister Sophia treated us like family ♥️ food is always amazing, the curried goat, yam, meat was falling off the bone, had a few punch to drink too😉. Highly recommend it.
We will be back ♥️
I went to Carumbar for the first time yesterday and had the vegan combo - honestly one of the best meals I've ever had at a restaurant! Each dish was incredible (especially the ackee and sweet pepper, divine!) and the staff were so lovely. I'm amazed at how they get their corn cob so flavoursome too!
Had a celebratory end of term meal here with my wife and two kids. No booking but found us a table, jerk chicken and curried goat all round.. Food was really tasty, my wife likes the Jerk to be more spicy than sweet but this is minor. Music was good, not too loud. Place is clean and tidy, not sure about all the local basketball team shirts hanging up? Why are they there? There appears to be a single unisex toilet just off the main restaurant. Staff were very helpful, friendly and efficient. This would be a great place to start a night out in town.
Visited Carumbar as part of a large group for a birthday meal. Some of the guests arrived a little late and the staff were very accommodating and friendly. The restaurant had a lovely vibe to it and was clean and tidy from the tables to the toilet. I had the Carumbar Style filleted snapper which was delicious. Full of flavour and great level of spice. Good portion size, would definitely recommend. Thank you Carumbar!

If I could give this restaurant more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. My fiancée and I have tried hundreds of different cuisines and restaurants across the UK and without a doubt the delicious food, wonderful staff and easy location make Carumbar THE BEST. We simply could not fault this visit. I can’t pick a favourite part of my meal, so I’ll just recommend it all. Chickpea curry, sweetcorn frittas, snapper, chocolate rum cake, try as much as you can because this place is faultless. So much flavour and an incredible portion with a delicious side of Macpie. The food came out so speedily and the staff checked on our food and refreshments three times, and I have to say they were wonderfully helpful and suggested some great authentic dishes to us. The manager was present which was great because we wanted to thank her and her staff personally and she was clearly a passionate and very engaged member of the team. I just can’t wait to go back. You should all be so proud- thank you and good luck with the festival next week! We wish we could join but we will be away for the weekend so sending best wishes xxx
great music, great food, friendliest servers as well. their salt fish fritters r my favourite and their meat falls straight off the bone
Great night and atmosphere, with 7 of us attending.Great tasting food, polite and friendly service and staff, reasonably priced. Will go back again and again.
Amazing food, and lovely decor and atmosphere inside! Ordered quite a few starters and a main and it was all very tasty. My Caribbean grandparents would definitely approve 👏🏼 the chicken and goat is halal too, so that's another plus.
I had a lovely time. The food was very tasty and service was excellent. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive and even went out of her way to give us directions to an event we were attending.

After having ordered take away from carumbar a few times we finally had a meal in. As we expected the food was delish. The atmosphere was chilled and the staff were really friendly.
Amazingly crafted food, served on a platter for me and my friend to enjoy. Beautiful decor that complimented the warm sunny day we were experiencing, with lovely hosts.
Food amazing as always- took my son for his first taste of Caribbean food and he loved everything. Our waitress was an absolute delight as well- cheerful, friendly and attentive
Food is delicious, customer service is always 10/10 and the atmosphere is super 👌 would 110% recommend this place to dine in or takeaway 😀
Really amazing place. Food quality is exceptional. Atmosphere good vibes soft music in the background. Service was a bit slow, as in getting cutlery. Otherwise a faultless night with friends.
Incredible meal, been a couple tines now and both times i was super full and the food was INCREDDDDDIBLE
The food here is good value and so flavourful, from the succulent chicken, the sweetcorn fritters, to the coleslaw. The fried dumplings were so light and crispy. I've been to other Caribbean restaurants where the dishes are disappointingly bland and the dumplings have been rock-hard and doughy. The chef came by to see what we thought and it was lovely to meet him. Quietly proud of his creations though if I were him, I'd be singing from the rooftops! If you've never tried it, try the saltfish and ackee and ask for some recommendations. One of the young waitresses was lovely and chatty. She shared stories with us about our near-lethal experiences with Wray & Nephew (!!), helped us out ordering and introduced us to the most delicious rum: Old Admiral J Tiki Fire. I have to get my hands on a bottle!! The atmosphere and decor inside has been really well thought out. Credit to the Carumbar team. Thanks, guys, we'll definitely be back again!!!
