Delicious food, great service and all at a fair price. Love this place.
This spot gives extraordinary service and yummy meals. One of my favorite restaurants around town. The meals served rapidly and the rates were reasonable. Highly recommended.
Great food!
So. Good. This place is legit. One of my regular stops whenever I’m passing through Kamloops.
My favourite eggs benny. Jamacian sunshine is the bomb!
We went in today for the first time it was cold and rainy and immediately upon entering your mood is changed. The bright colours, amazing aromas of food and upbeat reggae makes this place instantly inviting. The food is amazing! The portions are decent and the mango cheesecake is a must! 10/10 guys!
Great food! Great service!
Went for dinner tonight and it was fantastic. Culturally stimulating, friendly service, clean, awesome flavours, a simple (but delicious) menu....I could go on. Fair portions, fair prices, and just a great experience. Will be coming back for sure. A gem on the North Shore.
Best food and service in town!
PERFECT Eggs, every time!
Great food and friendly staff
Didn't really enjoy the food but they were interesting and the people were smiling and friendly
The food was very flavourful. The service was good overall. My only comment is in regards of portion vs price (doesn’t match). I found it too price for the size of the portions. Also, no full pieces of jerk chicken, only kabobs.
Love this place! I always get the special and its great
The worst experience ever! We waited for about 45 minute just for a Benedict!!! And when we saw they have lots of delivery, we follow up on our fopd, they said at least we should wait for another 15 minute as they have lots of online orders and besides that their chef cut his hand! Are you kidding! Please let your customers know before taking one hour of their time!!! I'm surprised with their high rate reviews! Worst customer service! If your chef cut his hand, how come You were just taking care of your online orders?! We asked couple of times how long would be the food get ready, you even didn't answer your customer and update us. It's shame that you're not respecting your customers that are seating there and just taking care of your online orders as your waitress told us!!!
Great spot for brunch, very good Jamaican food!
Had the vegetarian Roti, great Jamaica dish! I recommend it to you all.
It was our first time trying the Jamaican Kitchen and we were not disappointed! Probably the best breakfast I've had in Kamloops. The patio is beautiful and we will definitely be back. So many great and affordable options on the menu. …
Pulled pork sandwich was perfect. Going to eat here again
So good! Delicious food. Great service. Very clean & friendly.
Very delicious vegan options :)
Amazing as always, service with a smile. You'll feel very welcome, and the food is absolutely great.
Had a vegan plate there and it was amazing. My hubby had a great chicken wrap. The food was delicious, try the Johnny cakes, they are delicious. They also deliver through Skip the dishes.
Friendly and smart staff. Great good at a good price.
I didn't think I would find a Jamacian restaurant in Kamloops. I was wrong! And they are also on skip the dishes. 6 patties for 20$ ???? I'll definitely be back !
Service here was beyond terrible. We were served food that was previously served to another table. The other table added sauces etc to the food, then the server took it back and tried to pass it off on us as our order. Very poor. Will not be going back. No apology, no action to make it right. I would recommend against this "restaurant"!
First time in today and I had the lunch special as recommended by the friendly staff - it was delicious! I’ll be back.
Great food and excellent service, I love the music and bright happy colors on the walls.
Amazing service, and phenomenal food! Been here three times now and it was just as great each time.
Way over my expectations. Inexpensive, decent amount, tasety and creative with friendly service as well.
So friendly, and amazing food. I love it!
The flavouful food is varied and phenomenal! There is something to tickle every part of your palate and portions wellsized to fill you up :)
Had the jerk chicken and it was spicy, flavourful and juicy for white meat. The rice was good and the veggies were just ok. I am glad they had the veggies on the side just so it made the meal a bit healthier. My wife got the pork and that had a really hearty flavour. It was really complex in terms of flavour. The fries were fresh and tasted really good too. Kinda like New York fries style with the skin still on. The only thing is that the food took a while to come but it was worth the wait.
Found this little gem and love it! I will be back soon and bringing friends.
Very good breakfast with excellent food and service.
The best kind of place, if you're just passing through or you are a foody looking for another Saturday lunch spot, this place will blow your mind. The food is stellar, and the spice levels are just right. It will definitely be a regularly visited place when I'm in town.
The lady who runs thos place is difficult to deal with and not at all accommodating to my order when I asked for hot sauce on my to go order she told me it was hot enough.... I will never return here
Great food! Lovely owners. A little taste of the Carribean????
Wonderful staff and lovely meal choice. Curried chicken and Johnny cake make a wonderful combo
jerk chicken wings, curry chicken soup & friench fries are all 10/10
Amazing food! Quaint, the most cozy place and awesome service. Free parking around the side.
Amazing! Love it here! So flavourful! I'll be back!
I came here when visiting Kamloops last year. I still think about it months later, as this is by far the best Jamaican cuisine I’ve had outside Jamaica. Very kind folks as well. May drive from Vancouver sometime just for this.
Ok food. Nothing spectacular!
Truly a Kamloops gem. Love the food.
Excellent food, I absolutely love the club house sandwich and the ginger beer
Awesome food here, and the owners and their family are very nice as well.
Jerk chicken and fries. Pulled pork and chicken curry soup. Exceptional taste.
The jerk chicken had too much sauce. Couldn't taste the chicken. The patties & Johnny cakes were great! Atmosphere was nice.
Ate there twice both times for lunch good and fast service, large portions at a good price and great food!!!!! Cant wait to go there for breakfast
Always awesome! Denise and her staff are wonderful. A little piece of Jamaica here at home. Irie!!
Great vegan options! I recommend the jerk tofu kebab.
The jerk chicken was amazing. One sniff and I knew it was the real deal. Beautifully balanced spices, sweetness, and fall off the bone tender meat. A bit milder spice than I can handle but it truly is a taste of Jamaica. I can’t wait to go back and try more of the menu. You will be hard pressed to find a better example of jerk chicken.
Excellent all around, everything is always delicious. One of the best places in Kamloops and the North Shore
So good!! Generous menu options with authentic Jamaican food and the best service. Nice place to eat indoors or on the spacious patio.
Good food and portions Fair price and great service
Been there several times while passing through. We always make a point of stopping in when we can. Food is great and staff is awesome. Definitely worth a try!!!
Great food. Excellent server. Johnny cakes are awesome. Fantastic flavours
I had the jerk chicken kebab with coconut rice and veggies. So good! The people that ran the place were delightful with a sense of humour. Really warm and friendly. Thank you ????
Food was amazing, staff are pleasant as alwsys. Highly recommend.
A Jamaican flavour for a nice change. Always enjoyable.
Excellent food..Went for Sunday brunch and cpuld not have been a nicer experience. Tasty clean food..awesome desserts. Nice ambience and good service. We will definitely come again
Our go to restaurant when we're in town. Everything is so flavourful (we usually get chicken and pork jerk, and chicken roti) and the owners are very friendly!
Amazing service and great food....genuine Jamaican food with some added western favourites. A must visit. ????Pulled pork for days!
Cheap but delicious Jamaican food my favorite!
Food was fantastic, service is okay. Don't feel like it's above and beyond service, boyfriend never had his water refilled. Both times I've eaten there the service has been just okay, nothing to write home about. But the cooks do a lovely job!
Love the ice cream and the donuts yum ????
The food is delicious and the service is fantastic!
Good food good service
So happy to find a roti place in BC's interior. I just wish the rotis were more the the Trinidadian ones we get back east. The food was all super tasty and well cooked.
Best breakfast and lunch in Kamloops. A real gem????
We just had the most delicious brunch here!
The real deal very good food
Great staff, and amazing food! If you like it quite spicy, your looking at the right restaurant. Would definitely go again.
OMFG. We had the chicken roti, jerk chicken kabobs and the pulled pork bacon sandwich. All was super delicious, authentic Jamaican jerk. Great flavour with just the right amount of heat. Would highly recommend. Get the Johnny cakes. Could eat about 10!!
Food was tasty, a bit expensive. My colleague and I went and were hungry again a few hours later.
I was the only customer in the restaurant when I went in which was nice. I ordered the BBQ JERK CHICKEN KABOB. The rice and peas were on point but the chicken and Caribbean styled veggies not so much. They don't have the traditional leg option only a kabob and I was not a fan of the jerk sauce. They veggies seemed to be from frozen corn, beans and carrots with cabbage. Traditional Jamaican veggies served with chicken and rice and peas from what I have had would be cabbage, peppers, onions, carrots and seasons with thyme and a scotch bonnet pepper. I will not be going back.
My Jamaican Connection was excellent as always.
Food is good but portions are much smaller then originally were
Nice folks, great food. A gem in this town.
One of the best local places in town. I love their salads.
Cute place, great service, good food.
Great food, cute little place. Would definitely come again!
Would rate higher excellent food but he moved into one of the rougher neihborhoods in town and for that reason has lost most of his highe end clientele....crackheads sitting right out fron
I just got back from this place and it was a great experience. Restaurant was clean and casual. Waitress was super nice and helpful with ordering. She recommended I have the jerk pork and it was so delicious. It was probably some of the best tasting pork I have ever eaten, no joke. It was accompanied by some seasoned rice and veggies with went well with the somewhat spicy pork. Meat was super tender and well flavoured. My eating companions also had the rum cake for dessert which I tasted and it was really nice too. Good rum taste and sort of spiced flavour from the cake. Chef came out for a chat as it wasnt too busy and was friendly and attentive. I would definitely recommend this place. The total for three of us was 54 dollars for 3 mains, one drink and a dessert.
I am extremely disappointed with my experience of the Jamaican Kitchen location. Horrible and I will never go again. I just went in today with a baby and a toddler and asked for a dish that was not very spicy for my toddler and was suggested the jerk chicken by the lady working at the counter. She said she would ask him the cook to make it less spicy as well. I ordered the jerk as well as two other dishes and asked how long it would take. I was told 10-15 mins, that was fine. Then the lady working at the counter came out to my car to tell me that there was no jerk chicken after I already paid. She then asked if i wanted kabobs instead but they were a different price so I ended up having to pay an extra $1.50. Then when my order was ready I was about to go home with the takeout and noticed that my order was light and found I was missing an entire meal. I then had to wait an extra 15- 20 mins for them to make the extra meal. I waited in the car with my baby and toddler , who screamed btw because it was taking so long. When I got the meals back home the only dish warm was the last one cooked. Had it all been done at the same time this would not have happened. To top it off my toddlers dish was way way to spicy that he cried so hard after the first bite. My husband and I tried it and we found it spicy for even us and we like spice. If I could rate this no stars, I would. I looked for a phone number online to complain and could not find one. You'd think they would throw in a free pie or something for the triple mess up. :( Also I ordered the coconut rice and peas and got rice with beans. My rotti was hard and was more like a whole wheat wrap. I'm not happy!
Amazing food & service
It took a little longer than expected but it was worth it! Very quaint little place. The staff was nice and food was amazing.
Awesome food, flavors were exactly what you'd want. Presentation had effort and consideration put into it, and that combined with the atmosphere, created an awesome experience. Would definitely recommend it, and can't wait to try the breakfast menu! Also, the cost is very affordable, especially for the price. Good job Jamaican Kitchen!
The food and service is great. The only reason I gave 4 star is when I eat one day the veggies are not that fresh.
We had dinner here while visiting Kamloops for two nights. It was exactly what we were looking for and would make eating here a priority when passing through. Everything was delicious and fresh. Wee had goat, pork and chicken. The jerk pork with seasoned rice was the absolute best, everything was great though! We also had the rumcake a la mode and it didn't last very long. The restaurant was clean, comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful.
A good daily special,wide variety of jamacain food,excellent service at a good price.I'll be back next week.
Delicious. The young girl running orders was absolutely adorable and very courteous....better than some veteran waitresses I've had!
Food is good but comparatively expensive and not enough quantity.
Great service great food. Highly recommend the breakfast skillets!
Everything on the menu is quality. Great service. Waitress is kind and beautiful too, bonus!
Amazing food. #JONNYCAKES. Great desserts.
Bomb food, authentic and delicious
Came in for lunch. Had the Vegetarian Roti which was fantastic; both ridiculously filling and spicy. Great coffee too! Service was fast and staff super very friendly. I'll be coming back for sure.
I went there for the first time with my mom today for lunch and the food was amazing! The staff was great! Love this place, I will be going back for sure.
Was so good! Food is delicious !
Amazing, super savoury meals here. The service staff is excellent. Meals are very well priced and the restaurant atmosphere is very nice. I always stop here when I come back through town. At least once in my 36 hr reset. Personal favorite has to be the Jam Can skillet
Food Was great did not like the view. Hope to see your business grow
Absolutely addicting. Friendly owners & staff. I urge you to go there and get anything, you will not be let down.
Amazing food, great prices, great portions, awesome staff. All around great
I'm not sure how I stumbled upon this place but wow!! I had the Jamaican Sunshine Benny and the flavors were absolutely amazing???? I look forward to coming back to try their other dishes. The staff was super pleasent and I enjoyed the atmosphere. Highly recommended
delicious selection of foods, including vegan options
Love this place. Great Jamaican Eggs Benny flare! Great service too.
Charming, authentic Jamaican service and flavours. The Rastafarian chef is a true gem!
food was delicous best ive tried
A little spicier than your usual north American fare, and that's a good thing in the end.
The food is always excellent.
I was not a fan. But its not my type of food that I like. My family likes it though.
My wife has been dying to try this place since we moved to Kamloops over a year ago because she's vegan and saw some great reviews on some of their Vegan friendly dishes. We finally got the opportunity to go in for Brunch today and it did not disappoint. We both had skillet dishes (1 Jamaican & 1 Vegan) and both were quite good and very filling. The only reason I didn't give this place a 5 star is because it took quite a bit of time to get our food (over 30 minutes) which can feel like an eternity when you're hungry. We will definitely be back to try other dishes and give that patio a try :)
Visiting town and decided to try. Seriously good! I’ve had my fair share of chicken rotis but damn it was different & delicious! Service was great and super nice. Overall two thumbs up!
The service was quick and friendly, and the food was so delicious. Thank you!
Happy staff, happy place, happy food. All smiles over here. Thank you my friends.
EXCELLENT food, unique choices, family run... but environment feels half complete and doesn't feel like it matches the theme. You can tell it used to be a coffee shop. Service is adequate but not wonderful.
Benny is delicious with a lasting after effect but patio needs to be dog friendly like other progressive places
Irie! Great service, great food, go there!
Always delicious! Beautiful presentation, and a friendly atmosphere.
Really really good food.
My family loves Jam Can. We regularly go for breakfast as a treat to ourselves. The service is always exceptional and the food is delicious. For those that have had a bad experience I highly suggest you try them again. As a small business owner myself it's sometimes hard to always be on your game and have things work out perfectly for every customer even though that's our intention. These folks are trying very hard to be successful at business and our family thinks they are doing a top notch job. We should be supporting them and all small businesses for their best efforts in any way that we can! Great job Jam Can!!!!!
Get Johnny cakes. Also jerked pork and eggs. Trust me.
Food and service was very good i will be bacm
some of the best ethnic food I have ever eaten, recommend big time if youre coming through Kamloops
Wonderful staff, amazing food, friendly cooks. I recommend this to all my friends
Jam-Can Skillet is highly recommended. Service has always been decent, and coffee has always been strong. Excellent choice for anyone looking for a spicy and savory breakfast or lunch.
Excellent little hole in the wall. They get busy and their kitchen is a bit small for the size of the restaurant. If you have the time to wait and don't mind occasionally getting your food before/after the people you're sitting with, you'll have some of the best Jamaican food I've ever had outside of Jamaica.
The food was tasty and the portion size was good.
Beyond doubt this place is 100% wonderful! Such good food and well presented. The oxtail is delicious and the rotti is ruthlessly delicious! The patio is a great place to enjoy a late brunch with a Jamacian Red Stripe and relax.
Very good food
Amazing food, can't get enough !
Jamaican Kitchen is my go to breakfast spot: excellent service, good coffee, and amazing jerk/savory breakfast choices. It didn't take long for the servers and chef to know 'our usual', and they always are sure to offer a smile and a greeting as you go by. I highly recommend this restaurant, and should add that they also offer great 'traditional' eggs and bacon breakfasts.
As a native Jamaican, absolutely THE best Jamaican food I've eaten at a restaurant hands done! Always amazing!! I keep ordering again and again and thank you for being on skip the dishes!
Jam Can is something unique and special in our town, and everyone who visits should try it. Get the jerk pork and seasoned rice... and you'll want an extra Johnny Cake.
I love this place. Family owned and operated. Great people with delicious Jamaican cuisine.
One of our go to places to take out of town visitors for Jamaican style breakfast. Never any complaints, lots of curiosity. Good food & Staff.
Great food! Jerk Chicken burger is soooooo good!
Nice flavours. Good location. Friendly staff.
Came in after years of living in Kamloops, not only was I beyond pleased with their delicious, authentically spiced dishes but I also loved the energy from our server to the kitchen staff. Beautiful decor, comforting feel and a genuine jamacian meal. We are already looking forward to our next meal from them right after we finished our first meal. Beautiful restaurant and wonderful staff. Highly recommend!!
I like the food here. It is good.
Friendly, cost and tasty! Love the Jam Cam Skillet.
What a great little gem of a place. Wicked good food, central on the Shore.
Looks very it for an authentic and inexpensive meal
Honestly, considering that I've had Jamaican food in Florida, Montreal, Toronto and Calgary, I'd say this hidden gem was better than almost all of them and by far better than Calgary's. The Roti was excellent and my curried goat was well seasoned and tender. Definitely a return stop the next time I'm back in Kamloops.
The food was amazing and service was perfect.
Delicious food and friendly service. Will be back again.
I love eating here the food is amazing and the staff and owners are awesome.
Great food friendly staff
The food was delicious and I give the restaurant a 4/5 and the staff are a group of hard workers.
The food was good and inexpensive, fast service
Such good food! If you're looking for a real Caribbean taste & experience, I wouldn't recommend anywhere else. Jam-Can Cafe!
The food was amazing if you are in the hunt for fantastic Jamaican cuisine... this is your place!!
Don’t ever order takeout. They are sloppy with service. I ordered take out curry goat. The take out container was cracked and flimsy and they didn’t even close the container. I should have checked when I left the restaurant but pretty quickly I had a plastic bag full of curry as it all leaked. When I called the restaurant they didn’t seem to care that they did this. Last week I ordered goat curry and it was just bones and barely any meat. I Was hoping it was a one off and reordered today. Terrible customer service for take out and dine in! They don’t serve their customers in order of priority. The cashier picked the person in line behind me by waving her and took her order while I was the next in line.
My dad took me to this restaurant as its right across the street from this place. What a great replacement and refreshing taste for that area which is saturated by Asian restaurants. I had the jerk salad with the Johnny cake - it was delicious! I just went to a Jamaican restaurant in Vancouver and it was a big disappointment after this place! I would like to thank the nice blonde short haired lady who was serving the entire restaurant alone! She was calm and had excellent time management skills! 5 stars for both food and service - cant wait to go back!
Staff is warm hearted with a welcoming environment ☺
Delicious food! Try the Jam Down Chef Salad
Good coffee! Great food! Nice service!????
Absolutely delicious food. I've been there 5 times in the last 2 months and can't get enough. I raise goats and buy their wet marinade to season it. I've never seen my husband enjoy my cooking so much. I've also never had anything but top notch service.
Amazing breakfast. Definitely check this place out! Jamaican skillet????
Excellent food with Reggae music to hey you in the mood for Jamaican food.
OMG! WHAT took me so long to visit?! Besides COVID... I finally made it to JK for the Jamaican Sunshine eggs benny the other morning. BEST flavours this side of the Caribbean Sea! The place is tiny but welcoming, the aromas are so inviting and the food transported me right back to Negril! The heat and citrus in the jersey sauce were perfectly balanced, the soft yolk set off the spicy meat perfectly and everything on the plate was prepared exceptionally...with love! Thank you so much! I will be back again and again! I plan to try everything on the menu!! Your newest loyal customer, Kelli
In a town of truly mediocre food, Jamaican Kitchen is truly a step above other restaurants. Was thrilled to see a vegan section on their menu, and every item my partner and I tried was delicious! Already looking forward to coming back next time I’m in town.
Very flavourful food; nice portions; reasonable prices; friendly waitress and wonderful Jamaican ambiance. It was my first time there and I'll definitely go back.
I love when the owner sings!
First off, AMAZING service. We had a party of 10 adults and they were quick to refill water without needing to be asked, served everyone's food at the same time, which is huge for a party that big. I had the pumpkin soup, johnny cakes, and rum cake. The soup was delicious, not too spicy, but hearty and filling. The rum cake was delicious and definitely soaked with rum! The best for me? The Johnny Cakes. Oh my goodness. My soup came with one, and it was perfect, but we ordered some with Mango Butter & Coconut Butter as well, and that I gotta tell you is my new go to dessert. Piping hot, with delicious melty butters for dipping, so delicious. My other half ordered a Jerk Chicken Burger and loved it too! Thanks for a great evening, it was our first time eating here and we'll definitely be back!
Clean restaurant...Great food.... awesome staff...
Great food and great service. A nice ethnic addition to Kamloops limited foodscape.
Goat roti with a Pink Ting is my go to meal!
I enjoyed the food and the friendly service
Great food, fantastic service
I can’t believe I’ve never been here before. The food was delicious and our server was attentive and friendly. It has a relaxed/chill vibe. Will be back for sure.
Last time I went to jam can I ordered the Jerk pork eggs Benny and it was amazing!! Would definitely recommend this restaurant to others!
Can't say enough good things about this place, the food is exceptional, the atmosphere is great and some of the best service I have ever experienced period. A one of a kind gem in the Kamloops area.
The best vegan breakfast skillet I've had and several good looking vegan lunch options too! Kind employees and nice patio.
Super great food with a Jamaican twist! Great owners and service.
My husband and I go here approx every six weeks ( not often enough!!) He has the breakfast skillet and I have the Jamaican sunshine. OMG SO SO Good. So times the service is a little slow, but seriously, if that's the price you pay for excellent food, well it's worth every penny, and the food is even better if you wait a little longer. I cant recommend this place enough. Huge thanks!!
I would never in a thousand years expect to find a Jamaican restaurant in Kamloops but someone referred me to this wonderful gem, it a family run authentic Jamaican restaurant with home made Jamaican patties! It’s very comfortable with great staff and wonderful ambiance, the food is great and it’s brought to you quickly with fry dumpling vegetables as well as rice an peas, huge portions and great taste! Worth a visit!
Excellent food...exceptional service!
Good service, great food!
The hospitality and ambience is just perfect. Everyone are just so kind. The food was just delicious. You should try the jerk tofu vegan dish. You don't have to be a vegan to try. People in kamloops or in BC should try this place. You won't be disappointed. You can thank me later:)
Excellent food, great prices, friendly service ????!!!
Overpriced and loud with jamaican music and tv showing jamaican musicians prancing around. The food was ok but nothing to write home about.
Best breakfast in town! Everything is delicious.
Great food packed with flavor and very fresh. Server was very nice and polite. Great plate size for the dollar value. Definitely will be going again very soon.
Best eggs benny in town bar none. I'm sorry hello toast and red beard, but the hollandaise sauce is the stuff songs are written about
Wanted to make healthier choices so decided to try vegan wrap and it was deliciously amazing. Didn’t know eating healthy can be this delicious!! I can add healthier options to my diet every week now. The mushroom is perfectly flavoured. Thanks Jamaican Kitchen ????????
In town visiting a friend. Decided to try the Jamaican skillet and I was not disappointed. Absolutely amazing food. The staff was super friendly too.
Great little place on the North Shore.
Food is great. The service is great as always.
Best resturant in kamloops! They always have killer specials, also some vegan options are available as well as some western food for picky people. All in all a really great place to eat with a crowd of different dietary requirements/preferences!
Authentic Jamaican cuisine! The best jerk pork and ginger beer I've ever come across, and the portions are great. A must stop whenever we're in Kamloops.
Amazing eggs Benny, creamy homemade Hollandaise. So good!
Must be the best burger in town but there are many other options I'm excited to try, including vegetarian and vegan. Staff as outstanding as the food, efficient, friendly, funny. Nice atmosphere too. It's kid-friendly, they were great to mine and he loved his smaller burger and fries, but it's also got an adult vibe where you could enjoy a Red Stripe on the patio. Looking forward to going back.
Went here for breakfast. Best breakfast I have had in Kamloops. Staff is very nice, coffee was good, price was great. Will be going back.
Stumbled upon this restaurant during my travels with my friends in BC, ordered the Jamaican skillet and 10/10 would recommend!! The flavors all meshed together so well. If you’re in the area I highly recommend this restaurant
They have really good Vegan And Vrgtrian options!! With lots of spices tofu kebabs and musrooms wraps
In Kamloops for a work trip, I ate here for breakfast, lunch and dinner. When I couldn't do lunch I took patties to go. Everything is delicious, the staff are super friendly.
Best benny in town! But seriously everything on the menu is great whether it is breakfast or lunch, I love this place.
This place is amazing. The food was delicious. The prices are very reasonable. Dessert is a must. We will be back.
Jamaican Kitchen. Good quality food, made with passion consistsntly. I've never had a bad meal here. Highly recommend eating here. Specially if you like tasty spicy food. 10/10
Food was great but the water tastes like rust...
YUM! Recently moved to Kamloops from Ottawa/Toronto and wasn't sure what to expect here. We ordered chicken roti, goat roti, Johnny cakes, and rum cake for dessert. Everything was delicious and the curry was amazing. Salad was super fresh and portions were a great size and reasonably priced. The rice could have been a bit spicier, but next time, I will order some hot sauce on the side. My only criticism is the styrofoam packaging, that I would happily pay extra to avoid, if given the option. We were so full, didn't even try the rum cake yet! Looking forward to exploring the menu more and trying different items. Thanks for an amazing dinner!
Great ambiance, lovely service and very good food.
One of kamloops best places to eat.
great staff so welcoming and friendly food was great highly recommend
This place is incredible. Amazing food, seasoned perfectly. Great prices, great atmosphere, and amazing staff. 10/10 must go. As a bonus this place welcomes ALL people no question. My new go to place for food and my morning coffee. Support this business.
Just had the jam can skillet and it was extremely flavorful. Well done guys! I'll be back.
The menu is from a western cuisine with a Jamaican twist to Jamaican. Wonderful atmosphere and service was excellent.
This is my pick for date night! Awesome food, great portions, fantastic service. The prices are incredibley low. Definately a great experience I loved the jerk pork. Iam going back tonight to try oxtail.
The food is made from scratch and is delicious
My favourite place for breakfast. Amazing food and great friendly staff
Great food and service. Three vegan options on the menu and they were all amazing.
Went for lunch/dinner, the hostess/server was friendly, they serve fresh and well made, homecooked food! Nice patio as well
Stopped going to this restaurant. The last three times we went, they rang in the wrong bill. Each time it was for more than what we purchased.
My favorite restaurant in Kamloops. Best breakfast around! Try the Jamaican Skillet or the Vegetarian one! Family run and friendly staff.
The Jerk chicken is amazing, fries are cooked well too, very affordable
What a gem! Great friendly owners and amazing food! Everything looked and tasted great. I had a vegan meal and it was perfect.
Went with a group and had a great experience for the most part. The service was great! I had the jerk chicken and while the flavour was excellent, the chicken was dry and tough and the accompanying rice was almost cold.
This place is FANTASTIC!! Run by the friendliest Jamaican family, all home cooked, authentic flavors, fantastic vegan/vegetarian options, good value and great coffee!! This is by far my favorite breakfast place, go and support this amazing local family business!! Vegan Skillet is my absolute favorite breakfast dish by miles, so much amazing jerk flavored goodness!
Food is excellent & authentic!! Service is friendly & inviting! Highly recommended!! ????????
Amazing food and great owners!
I had the Vegan skillet and it was by far the best breakfast skillet I have ever had ❤️
Straight up my favorite place! I always go for the daily special, super affordable, great portions and dont even get me started on the food! To die for! My favorite is the curry chicken on seasoned rice, one meal for the rest of my life and that would be it! Support local!
i had the vegetarian roti meal......spicy and lentils ......in my top 10 places to geab a quick lunch
Always great service and amazing food
One of my solid go to places. Great coffee, awesome breakfast skillet, wicked lunch and an actual spicy soup. I look forward to a dinner menu and some sort of Jamaican appies. All to be enjoyed with a Red Stripe....
Love the Johnny cakes, wicked jerk pork and even sell bottles of the hot sauce if you're into that. Super busy lunch spot, so come early.
Tried chicken Roti and it was perfect! I like everything about this restaurant, cleanliness, taste of food and staff. We surely come back again!
Vegan skillet soooooooo good!
Used to be a loyal Jam-Can supporter but gave up... food can be hit and miss, when its a miss, they don't care and throw up excuses! they never offer to make it right, which is a shame... seems like they don't care... Surprised they don't want to make it right. My friend ordered the vegitarian roti, to get chicken in it, and the waitress ARGUED with him that it wasn't chicken he was looking at... very poor practice... same waitress said the burgers have no onions in them but was delivered with onions throughout the patty... They make it your fault if they do something wrong rather than make it right... I used to tell everyone about this place, and now, I don't bother. I loved the food myself until my regular meal "brown stew chicken" came out as "brown scorched chicken" with no sauce, no flavor, and dried out as much as possible. It shouldn't have been served... The rice was dead and should have been thrown out as well, the Johnny Cake was fine tho, the veggies were over cooked mush but edible... so 3/4 things were bad.. that's a definite miss.. They should have comp'd the meal and told me to come back again and they'll make it right, but they don't care... SAD. I used to once SAVOR my meals at the Jam-Can, look forward to every trip there, I'd come out of there with flavors filling my taste buds, I loved it.. Many Many times over.. and I admit that NO one is PERFECT. But the way they handle problems is despicable, it's like its YOUR fault for complaining... and YOUR PROBLEM not THEIRS. Well I'll take my business elsewhere... when the food is on, this place is really good, when its not, don't expect much, and they expect you to still pay for crap. I hope it improves but I won't be going back for now.
My food was amazing! It was hot, fresh and had amazing flavour! My only complaint was it was a small portion!
Awful for the second time.waited 5o m8nutes for breakfast. My son's sausage was pink...and either someone gobbed in my breakfast or my egg eas served raw...this experience has made me not want to eat EVER again.
One of the best places to eat in Kamloops, hands down. Friendly staff, wonderful food, and interesting drinks.
Sunday brunch. arrived @ 11:30 ordered 2 skillet breakfasts and a grilled ham & cheese sandwich. Food took 50 minutes to arrive and hardly any fries on the plate with the grilled sandwich. We were told they were just waiting for more fries. Had to mention it to the server 3 times and finally got the fries 25 minutes later when we were ready to leave. Table next to us was a couple..the gentleman received his food and was finished and plate removed from the table before his companion received her food. Seems to be very unorganized. Nobody apologized for anything until we got up to pay the bill (which we had asked for at our table but never came). Server was pleasant enough but the overall experience was bad. Food was okay.
Came here for breakfast and it was delicious. Would love to try the lunch/dinners sometime. Very hard to find great Jamaican in BC, and this is actually the first Jamaican food I've had in BC that I've really enjoyed (normally in Canada I've only had great Jamaican in Ontario).
One of the best meals we have had in ages! We will defiantly be back! Thanks Jamaican Kitchen!
They have amazing food and service!
The best curry goat
Friendly service, good food and I appreciated the small menu so I didn't have to spend more deciding what to eat then actually eating.
Amazing service. Amazing food. Very friendly staff.
The food is amazing and the staff are very kind! Very good people who make amazing food!
Great food & good service. The only downsides here is the condition of the restaurant & the unique cutlery & plates, which obviously doesn't mean a whole lot.
This food is incredible! The flavour of the jerk pork is to die for!... And the cheesecake, wow!! Great value and friendly staff!
Fantastic breakfast!
Food was delicious, with plenty of vegan options, good friendly service. Definitely a need fave when we are in the area.
A must visit for anyone looking for the best food in Kamloops.
Great curried goat
One of my favourite places! I can't get enough of the Jonny cakes for breakfast :) Great, strong coffee and one of the best unique eggs benny I've had too. Awesome staff everytime. Definitely add this place to your list of hidden gems to eat at in Kamloops.
What a great place! The food is outstanding. Friendly, great service and sparkling clean. Vegan options..so nice to see. Think we just found our new favourite place.
Went to the new location for a business lunch and we were all extremely pleased by the entirety of tge experience. The new location is perfect, easy access and centrally located in the heart of the North Shore. The food was incredible, words do no justice.. just go try it. We will be back!
Come here for breakfast every time I’m in Kamloops, the Johnny cakes are great!
unique and original...delicous food...great service
Great Food and Very Friendly service, pleasant Atmosphères de surroundings
Amazing food! Everything made in house, nothing else like it in Kamloops. Great relaxed atmosphere and music.
The food was absolutely delicious. I loved the authentic ambience and laid back vibe. I will definitely be coming back whenever I visit.
Food was great and a good price! Great service as well!
Had the Jamaican skillet for breakfast and it was delicious. Very courteous staff , friendly chef. Two thumbs up. I will definitely be back soon. I will also tell others of the great experience.
Great food and run by amazing local folks. Great breakfast and a solid cup of coffee.
Hands down favorite restaurant in town.
great food small menu. Anything you order I'm sure you will be pleased with. Closes early
Dancing waitress and very good food.
I had a hard crash on the coq and been recovering in a hotel for a few days while I figure out how to pay all the bills and this food was the best part of my week. I love spicy food and Jamaican food is super delish, whether you order spice or not. If you like BBQ, fresh fluffy pot pies and spice...click and go. Order the jerk chicken, brown stew and Johnny boys.
The goat roti was amazing, perfectly spiced. I didn't even add one of my favorite hot sauces (calypso) so as not to alter the the flavor. Authentic fabulous food!
We were part of a group tour and only had 40 to 45mins to find a restaurant for a quick meal. We were served by lovely wait staff who expedited our food order to ensure we had enough time to eat our food. The jerk chicken was very juicy, a tad sweet with super refreshing greens and red rice. We also tried the Johnson and patty. Definitely preferred the flavourful patty crush for sure!! We even had the privilege of listening to the chef singing while preparing food!! Very charming eatery!
Jamaican kitchen is easily one of the best restaurants Kamloops. No matter what mood I'm in I can always enjoy their food. The Jamaican skillet might be the best breakfast I've ever had. The staff is kind and personal. I can just enter the restaurant and sit down and they'll prepare my regular order. You don't get that kind of service anywhere. The entire menu is amazing and you can never go wrong with their lunch specials for the price. They also skip the dishes and the food still tastes good by the time it gets to you. One of the best restaurants Kamloops has to offer, everyone should at least try it.
Love the food and the coffee is great(it's a string cup of coffee, be warned, lol).
Hands down the best restaurant in Kamloops. Never fails. Had the jerk pork this evening and it blew me away. Tons of flavour, just the right amount of heat. Absolutely nailed it. 10/10, would highly recommend.
Came in for the first time today, honestly dont know why its taken us so long! This place is amazing, great food, love the atmosphere, the music, the little girl server was awesome. My family and I will be coming here weekly from now on. Feels like im just hanging out at home, very comfortable, nice work guys!
Great food, service and atmosphere.
good food but slow
Great food and great service. I've become a regular visitor because they have what I like and the service is great. I always leave satisfied.
Lovely Caribbean style food. I had the jerk chicken and was impressed with the flavours and portions. Will be back.
The special said peas, rice and chicken. I received burnt chicken, bland rice, no peas and a salad that my child could make better.
Delicious food, friendly staff and very reasonable prices. A hidden gem in the city!
Jerk Chicken was amazing Staff was friendly Will go back
Would not feed my dog this slop! I have eaten a lot of Jamaican food and been to Jamaica quite a few times, this food is garbage, the jerk spice is completely embarrassing. A lot of flies in the dining room.... just gross.
Was in town for a couple of days, thought we would check out the restaurant since we were driving down Tranquille Rd. Food and service were great, had the special with a mix of stew chicken and wings, good portion and not too spicy. Family had jerk chicken burgers and kabobs, everything was good. Even had vegetarian selections for mom. Definitely will come back when in town again.
We stopped at the Jamaican Kitchen today, we will defiantly be back! Some of the best food we have had in Kamloops in a long time! Thanks Kamau and Denese for providing authentic Jamaican food in Kamloops!
I just love this place, it is our go to restaurant. I highly recommend it.
Wow! So good! Very authentic.
I have never written a review before but believe that I must. I visited the Jamaican Kitchen for breakfast this morning, and enjoyed the Pork Jerk Eggs Benedict with Hollandaise Rum Sauce on Johnny cakes. Oh my goodness......the pulled pork and egg with the rum sauce on these beautiful buns.......heaven. These were the best eggs benedict that I have ever enjoyed. They were served with spinach and cuts of yam lightly fried to perfection. The service was outstanding, very friendly. Highly recommend this restaurant to everyone. It is bright, clean, loved the tiled washroom. I would like to try other menu items during lunch and dinner. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
It nice place with good food
Perhaps the best food in Kamloops. Have been eating here for years and it never disappoints. Bring all my friends from out of town. Keep on doing what you're doing !
Passing through and looking for something other than a chain, found this little gem! Hearty, quality food! Staff were very friendly. Definitely would recommend.
Greatest spot in Kamloops to chill
Great food, friendly staff, love coming here. Breakfast and brunch are an institution. The jerk here is really good. And don't forget about excellent house made cheesecakes.
My partner and I come here for lunch every time we head into Kamloops. Daily special is always a winner but the roti is also amazing. Johnny Cakes!!!!
I cannot say enough good things about this place! OMG IT'S SO FREAKIN GOOD ???????????????? Food is so authentic and fresh and always hits the spot. Please try you will not be disappointed! Thank you Jamaican Kitchen you make this pregnant lady very happy lol ❤
Never disappointed, great food, great service!! We love this place!
This place is FANTASTIC!! Run by the friendliest Jamaican family, all home cooked, authentic flavors, fantastic vegan/vegetarian options, good value and great coffee!! This is by far my favorite breakfast place, go and support this amazing local family business!! Vegan Skillet is my absolute favorite breakfast dish by miles, so much amazing jerk flavored goodness!
I came here to grab a Jamaican patty and I was thoroughly disappointed. It was way overpriced, just a little under $5 (the big cities don’t charge nearly as much). It was not even fully stuffed to make it worse. Unfortunately never came back to try anything else as this really ruined it for me
It was a nice homemade meal. Just right portion and spice. We will go again.
Delicious food and service! Try their hot sauce
Visited with a good friend. Made the experience memorable.
Service was quick and friendly, food was down right fantastic. The jamaican sunshine I had was simple, yet complex mix of flavors and was well worth the detour off the highway.
Delicious food and friendly staff. Never had such delicious goat curry in my life. I will be back again. Lovely music played in this restaurant . Thank you Jamaican Kitchen.
On our way back to Vancouver, we made the best decision by stopping at the Jamaican kitchen to grab a bite. This is hands down one of the most flavourful cuisine we’ve ever tried. My husband and I enjoyed every single bite. The chef was so nice and he even came to check on us. The whole experience was amazing and we’re seriously thinking of driving all the way from Vancouver just to get another Jamaican fix. Love it
Amazing food! Wow!!
Amazing authentic taste. Great for breakfast too!
Excellent food Friendly service. Comfortable atmosphere I will definately return
As an avid Pho eater I used to visit the Tranquille Rd North Shore Donut King almost every week. The last time I was there, I quietly returned my meal because the Pho's meat was uncooked even after I mixed it with the hot broth and it smelled different, not in a good way. I though it was a one time mistake and went back today with my child who loves Pho. To my horror, the teenager who took my order last time was very rude and loud telling me that he was not going to take my order because "last time I returned it." I was left speechless. I've never had that kind of rude treatment experience and had been going to both North Shore and Sahali locations. Next time I want Pho I will go to the Sahali location. I don't need to feel like I'm on a "Seinfield episode at the soup counter". Lastly, I hope that for the sake of their business they send that kid to intensive training or just get him out of the front and kitchen.
Simple food with great flavour! Will be back!
Good real good food jerk tofu on the grill yes jonnycakes and clean!
Friendly service. BBQ Jerk Chicken is delicious!
Amazing food amazing service! Always a good deal
Food is good, but service is poor and very disorganized
This restaurant is amazing and delicious. The pulled pork is to die for. Love it here. Support local business!
Extremely impressed, I ordered a sandwich and a soup through skip and they are both nice and hot, Not only that but the quality is amazing! Everything is spiced so well. I’ve never ordered here before but this has become a favourite spot for sure!
Vegan food is featured on the menu and is cultured and tasty. Non vegan food is also authentic. Lots of choices include jerk sauce, among others. Great place for the morning breakfast choices with botomless coffee. There is outdoor seating if that's something you're interested in. A somewhat cheaper alternative to red beard across the street. Service was great.
Always fresh and great atmosphere and food
Great food. Friendly staff.
Amazing food! Excellent service. Best pulled pork bacon sandwich I’ve ever had. Vegan wrap is also a super solid choice. Support local!
Great atmosphere. Great food. Great staff
First time my wife and I walked in we quickly turned around and left...the noise level was way too high. Someone needs to tell the owner that loud boisterous conversations with his pals discourages business. We re-entered a few minutes later and asked if they make fresh, not from frozen dough, donuts... "yes they are made at our other location and delivered here in the morning". Had a banana filled and an ice capp. The donuts are just what you would expect from an oriental (Vietnamese) owned coffee shop... made from frozen dough and stale. The ice capp was barely frozen too. Another wannabe Tim Ho's. GROSS. However... the young lady that served us was super friendly and helpful... A real paradox...coffee shop/ice cream shop/Vietnamese food... Off my grid.
I have missed ordering lunch from here in past but after my recent lunch I will remember. Nailed it comes to mind! Eggs Benedict Vegetarian. It was sooo good!
Unreal bennies for breakfast and reasonably priced
great place. friendly staff. amazing food. I recommend the Jamaican connection breakfast.
Amazing find and authentic taste. Stopped by while driving through the town but would definitely revisit. Very friendly hostess and chef. The food had good flavor and was fresh. Large portion size so come prepared. …
The food was great, good people there.
Always good food, my weekends in Kamloops wouldn’t be the same without a Jamaican Kitchen breakfast.
Unfortunately we didn’t have a good experience at this place. My wife and I stopped at this restaurant to have breakfast before going back to Vancouver. The restaurant was not very busy. We sat on the patio and we were the only table in the patio that was waiting for the food. We ordered egg benedict and typically it shouldn’t take more than 15-20minutes to get prepared but we were waiting for more than 45 minutes and eventually decided to leave as the waitress told us we would need to wait at least another 15 minutes to get our food. They told us the long wait was due to an emergency in their kitchen but we noticed at the same time they gave at least five takeout food pack to delivery guys so the main reason in my view was that they were giving priority to their takeout food. Actually, I asked this question and I was surprised with the answers given. They told they could not delay their takeout food because the delivery company, Skip the Dishes, has maximum 30 minutes wait time policy! So it sounds our time was less valuable than them. It was really disappointing as they didn’t tell us even a word about the emergency, the priority of their takeout food and possible delay the first two times I asked about our food. Every time the said our food will be ready shortly. They only mentioned about it when we said we will leave if our food doesn’t come in next five minutes. We could feel much better if they had explained their emergency case and their takeout policy before I ask about the delay or at least the first time I asked about it rather than telling us that our food would come shortly and keep us waiting. So we could decide to wait or to leave based on what we had planned for our day. I could be much more respectful approach. A good manager could handle this situation much better. My wife wrote a review before me and explained about our experience. In response, they called her selfish so I decided to write mine separately. As a basic rule, when you receive a negative review, it is better you find out what you could do better rather than being impolite to the people who provided you with a feedback. This would help you to improve.
Amazing wings and curried chicken. Also the cheesecake was great!
Great breakfast! Awesome service.
I like the portion, presentation and great taste.
I love this place,the food is always a fantastic experience..
Great food. Have been going there for years. Best breakfast in town.
Great Food when it is right, don't go just before closing, they will serve you old food that should be thrown away, make you pay, and expect you to be happy. They do not take criticism at all, the food, for the most is usually VERY GOOD, but for awhile, had many off-days. I used to be a regular and enjoyed this restaurant very much, but after writing a review about the place on another site, I was banned from the place by the owner. Very childish approach, I've never seen this anywhere else, I eat at a lot of places, not sure why the owner would want to take this approach, but, I guess whatever makes him happy in the end.
The food is absolutely delicious.
Amazing food! The jerk rub was sweet with a nice moderate heat after burn. We will be returning for sure!
This place is fantastic, we always make sure to stop in when we pass through kamloops.
Every time we have gone there it's better than the time before.
Great food n staff
One of the best restaurants in Kamloops. Always amazing food
Love this place!!
Nice cool place to eat. Liked the food and the ambience too. The staff was friendly and nice. The chicken kebabs was good.
I ordered eggs benedict. Usually it's a yellow creamy sauce, but this was a white sauce and was ice cold!! Plus it was sprinkled with grated carrots and purple cabbage! Absolutely discusting!!! Oh, and to top it off, the cook argued with me. Freakin jerk! Never again! And that was my second time with shitty food!!
Not happy with how complaints were handled by staff then the manager. Food is good.
