Jerk King® : A Culinary Journey of Passion and Heritage

Our jerk isn’t just food; it’s a celebration of flavour, and our loyal customers agree that we serve Bristol’s finest.

What sets our jerk chicken apart? It’s the quality of ingredients and the customer experience we provide. Each piece of chicken is marinated with a secret blend of spices, grilled to perfection, and served with a side of our signature rice and peas. We don’t just serve food; we craft experiences that linger in your memory.

Since our inception, we have expanded our menu to include a variety of Caribbean dishes, including vegetarian and vegan with our latest venture Jerk King Ital, and increased our catering services, bringing the taste of Jamaica to festivals, community events, and celebrations. Our commitment to community involvement reflects our roots and desire to give back.

Established in 2014, Jerk King quickly took flight, making a name for itself at local events like St Pauls Carnival and The Ship Inn, where the demand for its tantalising jerk chicken was nothing short of phenomenal. The aroma of spices wafting through the air and the sound of sizzling chicken on the grill became synonymous with the vibrant atmosphere of these events. At Jerk King, we proudly claim that our jerk chicken stands far above the competition, a sentiment echoed by our loyal customers who have dubbed us Bristol’s best. This accolade is not just a title; it is a testament to our commitment to quality and flavour.
