We came across this tiny cafe style resturant whilst walking down Oxford Street 2 years ago (some guy had one of those advert boards up). Normally we'd ingore this but we thought "Hey a West Indian resturant in the middle of Oxford Street, great", and Great it was. Mr Jerk is small and cosy and sometimes you have to wait for a table, but the food is lovely, fresh and hot and so cheap.


We have had the Jerk and Stewed chicken, rice and peas, and we have never been disapointed. The portions are a good size too. An average meal at Mr Jerk is about £7.00 per person and they do take away. I have never been to this place without it being packed, it draws in such a nice crowd and in the evenings you can bring your own wine (not sure if there is a corkage fee).


I have been to the West Indies and I love West Indian food and this is possibly one of the best places I've tried that does not cost too much. Mr Jerk is nothing fancy (not the place for a romantic meal and I can't imagine anyone having a large group meal here) but it's nice. My boyfriend has been here many times and he's been to the more expensive West Indian resturant a little further down the road, and he said this one wins hands down!
