Caribbean · Plymouth
Unassuming from the outside, and easy to walk straight past — which would be a mistake if you've got hungry children in tow. Portions are generous and everything is cooked fresh to order, so it's worth ordering drinks and settling in rather than expecting food to land fast; on a quiet day it can still take a while, which is the one thing to know before you go with a toddler who's already fraying. The atmosphere is easy and relaxed rather than hushed, with a good showing of regulars, and there's a kids' menu, high chairs and plenty for vegans. The curry goat and brown stew chicken get the most love, the jollof rice is a highlight, and the plantain comes in for real praise. Prices are low, though a few find portions on the goat modest for the money.
