Irie Shack Cathays in Cardiff

You need to know that your order food at the counter or you ll be waiting a long time for table service. Cocktails 2 4 1 all day and week made. Did was excellent. Great size portions and tasty. Music was proper groove. All in all, I had a great meal and fun time

I thoroughly enjoyed my jerk wings here with the generous portion sizes and cheap red stripe however my girlfriend wasn’t super happy with her veggie option. Every item was deep fried except the small side salad leaving her slightly disappointed. Partially down to her own menu choice albeit but just I don’t think she fully knew was she was ordering, seemed to be an afterthought as it was a few of the starters served with the rice and salad.

Came here last Saturday with a group of friends, food was very good value and tasty, big portions and the staff were brilliant. I really loved the vibe of the place. Would definitely recommend.

Cool, calm atmosphere with great music if you like your afro Carribbean beats and reggae! Food was lovely. Cocktails are banging. Only issue with the place is that you have to order at the bar, but the staff are friendly and very fast. Will definitely be returning 👌

Generous portion sizes and reasonably priced delicious food😁

Good tasting food. We had stewed chicken and curried goat. Portion sizes were generous. Prices were reasonable.I would prefer waiting service instead of having to go inside to the bar. The crockery seemed a little tired, I guess it could add to the family type ambience. The tables were a little dirty. Staff could have been a little more friendly.But overall, I would go again despite my comments as the food was worth it.

Had a great meal here last night with friendsStaff were great and the place looked great.Food very a reasonably priced and tasted very good. The portions, especially the pots are large, so beware of ordering too much.Good menu with Vegan optionsRed stripe bear is nice. 3 main meals with sides and a beer was about £50, which I thought was a good price .I would give 5 stars but they forgot our dumpling sides. For some reason they showed on my receipt but not on the order ticket that was printed for the kitchen. It was quickly rectified.

Great unpretentious & lively Caribbean restaurant with great food & lots of cocktail options and deals. Really enjoyed our meal & drinks here with a large group of friends.

Nice selection of food which is mostly GF which is great for me. Loved the service with a smile and mocktails for the kids. Speedy service, will be back for happy hour!

Lovely dishes provided from the Jerk Pit, Extremely reasonable (around £9 a dish) has a great meal! Seen here is the lemon chicken skewers and Red Snapper fish, the food is well spiced especially the mango slaw! the cocktails for £7.95 a pair is also a steal. Well worth a visit for some great and well priced food! Only complaint is the music was abruptly load for four guests dining near close, couldn't hold a steady conversation with it.
