Came here for late supper with the intentions of going to Mr Ts.
After Google maps taking us in the wrong direction. We eventually found it.
After a brief chat with the owner we ordered a selection of food.
Chicken split was very very flavourful and reminded me of a banh mi type of bread (dough)
Jens box, love it, tasty Mac N cheese, home made coleslaw loved the sauce!!! And have to get chicken on the bone.
Also the sauce is really really nice.
Nice relaxed atmosphere. And friendly owner who came out for another chat.
Found somewhere else to add to my maps of eats thanks ❤️

I recently had the pleasure of ordering from your Caribbean restaurant, and the experience was exceptional. The jerk chicken was a masterpiece—tender, juicy, and bursting with a perfect balance of spices that delivered a delightful kick without overwhelming the palate. The rice and peas were cooked to perfection, complementing the chicken with their subtle, savory flavors. The plantains were a standout, offering a sweet and caramelized contrast that rounded out the meal beautifully. Every bite transported me straight to Jamaica, making it a truly unforgettable culinary experience.- Meal type

Wow wow wow!!! Thank you for your amazing review! We're so so happy to hear that you enjoyed our jerk chicken, rice and peas, and plantains. It's our goal to provide an authentic Caribbean experience, and your feedback lets us know we're hitting the mark. We look forward to serving you again soon and continuing to transport you to Jamaica with every bite! Amazing review Dale, thank you once again. 😊
I've been eating here since it has opened, the food is really nice. The meat of curry goat and stew beef is really tender and the sauce finishes off the taste. My favourite has to be the BBQ wing and the jerk burger. You have to go and try either. All portions are big which makes it a really good value for money. I would highly recommend eating here you will not be disappointed.

I Tried jen jens for the first time, give it a 5 star for everything specially the food. I ordered online for pick up and was greeted by my name on arrival by the owner.
He made sure I knew everything was in my order and if I had any problems he 100% wanted me to contact him. Shops is set out perfect for the type of food.
Family run and from what I seen they are all lovely. Caribbean food is very hard to come by, so having this not to far from home is a gem. (These portions are huge 👍)- Service

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback James!! We're thrilled that you enjoyed both the food and the service. Your satisfaction means a lot to us! Best regards, Jen.
Absolutely stunning food. First time trying this place and I'll definitely be back. I had the stew beef, rice and peas and it is up there with one of the best takeaways I've had. Cooked on time, hot, full of flavour and a kick. Can't rate this enough!

Ordered here for the first time and will not be the last. Wanted to give this place a whirl and the cook on everything was so clean, sharp and vibrant exactly what you want from good Caribbean food.
The jerk chicken bowl, rice and peas with a cool coconut taste to them were on point as was the plantain. Flavoursome and all harmonise together.
For me the standout was Jen’s pepper wings. So many times places promise hot wings and they’re frankly lacking… not this place! They say spice and they mean business but so well balanced you still get the sweet and sour notes through the burst of heat moist and off the bone easy absolutely knockout!!- Service

I tried Jen Jen’s for the first time tonight, and if I could give more than 5 stars, I would! I drove in from another city since mine doesn’t have a Jamaican spot, and it was absolutely worth the trip. Everything was perfect from start to finish.
The service was amazing—the lady and gentleman who helped me (wish I got their names!) were super friendly and made me feel welcome. The food was unbelievable. We got the Goat Curry with Rice & Peas and a Jen’s Jerk Box. The meats were super tender, and both dishes were packed with flavor.
I can’t say enough about how good the whole experience was. I’ll definitely be coming back—thanks for an incredible meal!- Service

Ordered from Jen Jens last week on the way back home from a weekend away with the missus. We had 2x curry goat with dumplings. On collection I met with one of the owners and had a great chat, he was friendly and made me feel welcomed. There was a little wait for the food but didn't mind as I knew everything would be fresh. The food didn't disappoint and I'll be ordering again tonight for me and the missus! Definitely earned a new loyal customer! Respect to the Jen Jen team.- Service

Amazing food - so good we went twice in two days.
One of the best goat curries we've had in a long time!
Proper authentic Caribbean food with as proper friendly family feel - you don't find dumplings many places!
Even when they forgot the dumplings on the first day, they were so apologetic and made up for it the next day.
It's worth noting the curries are cooked so low and slow that it falls off the bone so easily that you may get the odd bit of bone to pick out, but it's worth it!- Service

Thank you so much Stuart, for taking your time out to leave us such an amazing review!! We really do appreciate it. We are really happy to hear that you enjoyed your food and that you appreciate the authenticity that we always maintain. Your review has made my day 😊
Makes me miss London this place! The curry goat is so succulent and tender with the right spice level. The jerk chicken is very decent, I wish they did chicken leg or thigh pieces instead of breast but it’s still banging. I drive all the way from Dewsbury to come collect a box or two. Highly recommend for people craving their Jamaican/Trini food.
