Turtle Bay Liverpool Victoria St

The moment you step into this converted Victorian warehouse space, you know you're somewhere that takes its Caribbean food seriously. The industrial brick walls and soaring ceilings of the old Produce Exchange create an unexpectedly perfect backdrop for plates of proper jerk chicken that'll make your eyes water and curried goat that's been slow-cooked until it falls apart. You're here for food that doesn't apologise for being bold - scotch bonnet peppers that mean business, rice and peas cooked the right way, and cocktails mixed with proper dark rum rather than whatever's cheapest. The weekend brunch crowd knows what's up, rolling in for bottomless cocktails and saltfish fritters. Sure, it's part of a chain, but when the kitchen's turning out food this good and the bar staff actually know how to balance a proper rum punch, does it really matter?
