“ Best beef patties around! And there's a small version that is great for cocktail parties. The two varieties of chicken patties are good too, one is a jerk chicken. ”
“ JUST WOW the patties are so damn good.. the only thing I'm disappointed about is only finding out about this place now. We waited in line for about 5mins, ordered then got our food quickly. Such a unique bakery!! ”
“ Beef, chicken and veg patties. Perfectly seasoned, flaky crust and fresh. The quality shows. Also had the ginger cake. Everything was great. ”
“ I haven't been here for many many years, it was really nice to see the updated storefront. Inside doesn't appear to have the modern update but since it's still more of a take out spot, not a dine in - that doesn't really matter. The food was actually a lot better than I remembered. We picked up a loaf of hard dough white bread and it was so fresh. The spicy beef patty had a lot of meat inside of it, and had a perfect crispness to the outside. We also had a good curry and jerk patties, all delicious and a great deal for only $3.65 each! There was a short moving line but they served quickly. It's definitely a gem on Howard Street. I hope to go back to try their plantains and other bakery items. You can usually find nearby parking on the street so if you are in the area it is definitely worth the stop. ”
“ If you're craving authentic Jamaican patties in Chicago, look no further. This is a hidden gem that offers some of the best patties I've ever tasted, hands down. The flaky, golden crust gives a flavorful filling that's perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of spice. It's a must-visit for anyone seeking a taste of the islands in the heart of Chicago. ”
“ These are the best beef patties I've had outside of Jamaica! The crust is perfect and the filling is savory and perfectly seasoned. I love stopping by to grab a beef patty (or 3) every now and then. I recently tried their carrot cake and it was good and I would definitely try it again. This is a 'get your food and go' type of spot so there's not much to say about the ambiance. Service is usually quick, I've only ever stood in line once or twice but the line moves quickly. ”
“ I just wanted to say how #grateful I am to visit this local business all these years! The location is a walk up location where one can purchase what one wants. No seating, however wait time is minimal. I have purchased their patties when I want a snack and have used their catering services. Much thanks!! ”
“ Glad to see the bakery is still around. Hosted a birthday party over the weekend and wanted to share tastes of Jamaica with framily. I often forget that they also prepare Caribbean foods. (Though per reviews, food is only available on weekends and they prefer in person orders. Which would not have worked for my purposes) I think this has to do with the setup of the bakery. It doesn't extol the unique qualities of a bakery. That's always been their blind spot. Lack of product in display cases, utilizing space to show off foods /displays & the goods they can prepare. It's bleak looking. It's been this way and continues. The bakery offers bulk pricing on larger purchases and since I love their patties, I had to get a bounty. Two dozen and I'm glad I had nephew split all of them into halves to feed more people. Stopped by the eve of our party and purchased a bit of everything they had in stock. Throughout the day they will refresh their warm cases. Purchased an assortment of jerk, cheesy beef, beef, curry chicken and a few veggie. The cost was affordable and the smiles from happy attendees were many. The patties were the first to go. I paired these with a tray of jerk wings, rice and fried plantains from Auntie Joy's. For more detailed information on the bakery see my last review or stop by and sample some good local Jamaican desserts and food. For more details see previous review. ”
