Jerk chicken sandwich prices been keep going up..... missing the $7.50 days. food is good tho so no complaints.

I dropped in to grab a quick jerk pork sandwich as my daughter was getting her hair done at the Perfect X Hair (totally recommend!) in the same building. The flavourful and juicy morsels of jerk pork were stuffed into a perfectly pillowy coco bread with good amount of creamy coleslaw for a perfectly crunchy bite. I would totally return to try other offerings when I have more time at this food court location. I've loved all of Allwyn's locations right from their original Underhill spot. I wish them continued success! read more

Located on the main level of mall section of one of the condo buildings at Yonge and Sheppard. There are two Jamaican restaurants in this building. Allwyn's is located in the food court section. Their jerk chicken sandwich was amazing! Their oxtail was a little blend, and I wasn't the biggest fan of their rice. I tried their patties from their downtown location and loved it! Will come back to try that at this location next time! read more

5/5. Honestly, it's been a long while since I've devoured as good a pattie. This did not disappoint. Perfect seasoning in the luscious filling, crust flaked between my fingers. People, this was a pattie from heaven which melted in my mouth. It was almost a spiritual experience. Yes, it was THAT good. TO ABSOLUTELY DIE FOR GOOD. read more

Jerk chicken is great, juicy and flavorful - 5 stars Stuffed sandwich was dry, not balanced with too much bread/pastry compared to the jerk chicken and coleslaw. I would not get it again Oxtail was not tasty jerk pork was ok, just not as good as the jerk chicken 5 stars for the jerk chicken, the best I've had in a while read more

We recently were in the area and decided to retry this location. We were there for lunchtime. Service was good - everything was ready quickly and decent portions. I feel like they moved to slightly large boxes which is better value. The chicken was moist and had a good jerk flavor. The rice and beans were cooked well and we got oxtail gravy on top which was super flavorful and delicious! The coleslaw had a nice crunch and creaminess and sweetness which contrasts the chicken and rice. Price: prices have gone up steadily but for the amount of food and flavor, it's worth it. read more

Was interested to try this place based on the reviews but the food here was underwhelming. Patties are from Michidean as I saw the box from their fridge. The pastry was flaky but the beef filling lacked flavour it was just salty, it needed more pepper and beef flavour. Got a jerk chicken meal with rice and peas and coleslaw. The chicken was flavourful and was mildly spicy. I liked that they offer white meat option versus having small pieces of bone in your rice. However the rice lacked flavour, it was bland and did not have any coconut flavour to it which made it dry. Also, image showed plaintain but did not get any. Does not taste like authentic caribbean food. If you want flavourful Canadianized Caribbean food, stick to Chris Jerk in Scarborough. read more

Nicely spiced jerk chicken! Most were soft but some were a little tough. You can get meat only jerk chicken for $11 (1/2 lb) or $18 (1 lb) in small take out boxes. Service was nice but I wished the portions were larger! read more

Located inside building in a mini food type court with a bunch of other mini food type kiosks. Looks like a favorite hangout for the numerous construction workers during their meal breaks. Ordered the large jerk chicken plate which is approximately twice the size of the small plate. All food items pre-cooked and displayed at front counter. Whole jerk chicken cut up into smaller pieces upon ordering. Jerk chicken spice creeps up on you after a couple of chews, nice warm tingly mouth feel. Cole slaw nice and creamy, rice & beans a little over cooked but tones down the spiciness of the chicken. Chicken, rice, coleslaw, all goes well together read more

Allwyn's Bakery, located inside the food court of the Emerald building near Yonge and Sheppard specializes in Caribbean food. I've had many things on their menu throughout the years including their jerk chicken, oxtail, the jerk chicken sandwich, rotis, curry chicken, and patties. They are definitely my favourite jerk chicken place in the city! The jerk chicken they make is extremely moist and comes boneless. A meal comes with rice and peas as well as coleslaw. The oxtail is great as well. Their patties and jerk chicken are great snacks as well. The rotis are filling. All items have a certain heat to them but definitely not too spicy (at least not for me). Overall, great place for Caribbean food! Of course I will be returning to Allwyn's in the future for my Caribbean food cravings. read more

Touted as the "Best Caribbean Restaurant in Toronto" with multiple locations across the city, I thought they were good but not exceptional. I got a large jerk chicken with rice and peas. The chicken was tender and flavourful but sadly too spicy for me. Unfortunately there was no option to adjust the spice level and their heat was the kind that builds overtime. The rice and coleslaw were just ordinary. When it comes to Caribbean food in the area, they probably are one of the better ones but I can't say the food was crave-worthy. Also, at their price point, it would've been nice if the meals came with a few slices of fried plantain (..like it shows in some of their online photos)! read more

I was told by Reddit community that it has the best Jamaican patty in the city. So I ordered a dozen along with jerk chicken. The chicken was very juicy and soft, flavours were ok, rice and peas are average, nothing special. The patty are pretty decent, but the problem is I had stomach issue after I had these patty, it didn't not sit well with my stomach, but sure what was the reason but food safety is pretty important. read more

Last Saturday, I visited a food court in a condominium building near Yonge Street, just south of Sheppard Avenue West. I was here to visit Nanashake before the store closed down for the season. After getting what I had wanted there, I needed to fetch some lunch. Hey, I'm in a food court. Perfect! I wandered around, looking at all the eateries. Most were northern Chinese cuisine. I was looking for dumplings, but nothing grabbed my attention. What did scream at me was Allwyn's Bakery. Hey, I haven't had Caribbean food in ages. Sold! The funny thing is that it's right next to Nanashake. I went into the opposite direction around the food court to get here. I have flagged visiting Allwyn's Bakery for a while. There are locations across the GTA. I just happened to be in the right place on a Saturday afternoon. When it comes to Caribbean food, most folks go with jerk chicken. I'm different. My go-to favourite is oxtail. It's weird because I tend to order all things chicken, but it's oxtail here. The woman behind the counter was nice. I ordered the oxtail with peas and rice. She asked me whether I wanted the regular or large styrofoam container. Considering how much I love oxtail, I went large. The woman kept confirming and reconfirming. I am a pretty patient person, but I can see that habit to annoy people who are in a hurry. She asked whether I wanted the coleslaw with the rest of my food or on the side. I went with the latter. As I was waiting for my food, I spotted beef and chicken patties. When she came back, I asked if I could get a dozen of chicken patties. I went with mild spiciness, just to be on the safe side. She ended up giving me beef patties. I was good with either, frankly. I paid using a debit card. Only cash and debit cards are accepted. I tapped and all went well. You can grab paper towel and plastic cutlery on the counter. A male staff member came over and packed my box of patties with my meal. I thanked them both and happily carried my food to my car. While driving off to my next errand, the yummy oxtail aroma filled my car up. I was so happy. Why can't some perfume company capture that scent. I'd so wear it. Highway 401 was super congested. I exited at the next ramp and did the scenic route instead. As usual, it was busy on the street. I decided to crack open the small container of coleslaw while stuck in traffic. It made me so happy having a light bite. The coleslaw was one of the best that I've had. It was creamy, crunchy, and tangy. I enjoyed it so much that I was pretty sad when I was done. It certainly made my drive more cheerful. I should get a tub next time. After completing my errand, I sat in my car and ate my oxtail meal, as I was hungry. It was so good. I was one happy oxtail fan. It was flavourful, meaty, and yummy. The beef melted in my mouth. The peas and rice were done perfectly. Rice can put a damper on a meal if it's not yummy. It was odd that this thought came into my mind when I was driving. I absolutely loved the oxtail. I can't wait to return and get some more. I was thrilled getting a dozen beef patties. I haven't had one in ages, too. It's like eating the centre of a beef patty all the time with every bite. I'm not the type that likes a ton of crimped crust. These ones suit my needs. The only downside is that I felt like it needed more filling. You get a good amount, but it's so flavourful that I wanted more. Perhaps I will try the jerk chicken when I return. However, the oxtail has my heart, so it won't happen for a while. It was a great find and I'm a fan. Parking can be crazy in this area. Parking is available either on the street or at a couple of nearby parking lots. I got street parking (it's great brushing up on my parallel parking skills), which is $3 an hour on a Saturday. If you choose one of the parking lots, it's $4 an hour. (364) read more

The service here was very good. Its tucked in this center with the Food Basics. The menu is short and simple. Ordered the jerk chicken with roce and peas. The chicken was delish i finished that b4 i could even take a pic. The rice and peas taste simple but the moment you tell them to put extra jerk sauce right on top the flavor mixed becomes so good. Their pattys were also good got the spicy beef and hicken. I would say the chicken one left me awe-ing for more. I would come back for the chicken one. Would return A+++. read more

I've ordered from here a couple times and both times I ordered the jerk chicken with the rice and peas. Flavour? Yes! It was seasoned beautifully but I did find it a little dry the second time I ordered it. Definitely not bad though! The plantain was very good too! Also love the fact they have a small portion and a large portion available. The small portion is much better for one person. Also don't forget to order the plantain that was really good! read more

This review is for delivery I wasn't going to order from Allwyn's Bakery and not try their famous stuffed sandwich ($7.50). Admittedly, I may have re-heated it a bit too long at 30 seconds or should have thought to remove the coleslaw and re-stuff the bun, as something about warm coleslaw tastes odd. Who cares, as this sandwich is really good. When you take thick pieces of juicy jerk chicken and crunchy coleslaw and put it into a beef patty that's sandwiched between a soft fluffy coco bread it makes a tasty combination. With the spicy beef patty, the sandwich has a tingly heat, but since there's so much coleslaw everything is tempered and the sauces meld into flavourful bites. Just grab a large napkin as this baby is messy to eat. The oxtail ($11.85 for the small) has such a nice rich flavour, the spices seeping into the meat. Which made the rice and peas such a disappointment when you're met with a mouth full of a colourful but tasteless carbs. Where is the lovely gravy? Did someone forget to spoon some on before closing the lid? The gravy is why I order oxtail! Note to self: ask for extra gravy next time, for now add some salt and call it a day. Allwyn's redeemed themself with the jerk chicken wings ($7.85 for 1/2 lb) a flavour bomb that's only available during the weekend. Perhaps a touch overdone, they were nonetheless well marinated with seasoning infused throughout the wing. I could seriously eat a whole pound of these if I had a glass of milk by my side. read more

Jerk chicken is much more flavorful and spicier (in a good way today). Maybe they have less spicier jerk chickens available, as was my experience last time. But I'm glad today's very packed some heat and was very generous for the large sized container. I would certainly recommend Allwyn's to anyone in the neighborhood andlooking for some jerk chicken read more

I'm not even the biggest fan of jerk but this place does it right! This small joint in located in a condo building food court and while there are a few tables they are shared between all the food stalls there. So it's more of a take out joint. I usually get a large serving of their jerk chicken with rice and peas, which also comes with coleslaw. The chicken is always tender and flavourful with a little kick of chilli. For around $12 you get a pretty generous portion of meat, so it's completely worth it in my opinion. I've also tried their patties before on their own, but I thought they kinda lacked flavour. I would definitely recommend getting the stuffed sandwich instead if you really want your patty fix. This is where they stuff coco bread with a patty, meat, and coleslaw. Pro tip: you can ask them to give you more cole slaw and less rice if you're like me and bloat to the point where you look 6 months pregnant if you eat too much carbs :( read more

With the vast choice of Jamaican food around I found it to be good, not extraordinary, but good. Thought it was the right amount of spice bite on the jerk chicken, but I would have liked the oxtail a little more tender and a bit more gravy/sauce on it. But it was good read more

Cash only, so be prepared! My partner brought me here after telling me so many stories of him coming here throughout his high school years. We got a stuffed sandwich and a jerk chicken sandwich. The stuffed was a Jamaican patty and jerk chicken in a sandwich. My partner loved and preferred the stuffed but I liked the classic jerk chicken one. It was super yummy and filling and the prices were affordable and everything came out so quickly-- i can see why this place is so popular! I definitely recommend coming by whenever you're near the area. I would love to come by and try some of their different dishes! read more

Nice little jamaican place tuck within a retail/ residential condo midtown. Though it's in a food court area the food and price is relatively decent. However parking is a downside as there's only paid parking lot/meters nearby. Ordered a 1/2lb Jerk Chicken Wings ($6.95) and a Stuffed Patty ($6) which was generous in portion. The meats lack taste and not hot enough. Plenty of other options including jerk chicken, etc so will give it a try again next time. read more

I like the food, but the women who take the order are always rude and miserable to me. One night an Asian dude was there who was great, just like the mainstay Donald who used to run it. But the women have kept me away even though I live close by and always at Valumart next door. The women are nice to young men though. One woman even questioned my order, asked if I'd ever had it before!? Maybe because I am a black/brown woman. read more

Super good jerk chicken. Way way way better than Jerk King which is in the same building (sorry but my honest truth). This is what I like to call a cleaner version of jerk chicken. I got the large rice and peas with coleslaw for $10.50 + taxes. I'm typically the type to like bone in and super sauce-y type of jerk chicken which puts the flavour onto the rice but this was a nice "clean" eat. The dish as a whole really wasn't oily at all (which is typically the case with jerk chicken) They used chicken thigh (I believe) with the skin on and minimal amount of thin sauce on the rice and peas. The chicken has a little bit of a kick but doesn't burn your tongue and isn't dry despite how the picture looks. The rice and peas are nice and fluffy but not too much of a taste even with the sauce but nonetheless still good. The coleslaw though could use improvements. It wasn't as flavourful as I'm use to. Like I said about this whole meal it was more of a clean-er eat. read more

"Now this stuff is authentic y'all!" What time we arrived/Wait time? We arrived here on a Wednesday evening at 8:30pm. Understandable dead at that time. Atmosphere? It is in a small food court at yonge-sheppard so I wouldn't say it had much of an atmosphere. I would say it's very homey and cozy this cafeteria. They have trees along the centre and there aren't many tables. I like it. Simple. Service/Staff? The guy didn't really look at us. It was near closing time so I'm sure he was busy doing other things and wanted to get out of there. He prepared our meals fast and we didn't mind at all. Food/Menu? The food was great! Really thought the food tasted super authentic and was so creative as well. We ordered the jerk chicken stuffed sandwhich (w the coleslaw) and 1 chicken and 1 beef patty... and a lb. of jerk chicken. It was amazing!!! The jerk chicken was the best that I've tasted in my life. It was alittle salty but I think that's the way it usually is. I loved the skin on the chicken as well and how it fell off. The sandwhich was so cool as well but verrrry filling (lots of bread). The patty's were the only just OK thing but not bad at all. Overall, it's a great late night grab or meal that you need quick. read more

Allwyn's Bakery - already dug in... sowee! - Caribbean Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Finding this place was a mission for me since it was located in an almost-isolated-but-not-really-isolated building next to the subway station haha. I wanted to try their jerk chicken sandwich for awhile and when I did, I had no regrets! They gave a good amount of meat and it was really juicy and full of flavor. I came back and had their jerk chicken on rice. That was good as well but I enjoyed it on a sandwich much more. One other point to add is that their coleslaw is some good stuff!!! Service was nice and quick, I went before they had rush hour so there was no line up. read more

This is a solid jerk chicken joint. I got their large jerk chicken with rice and peas for lunch and it was really tasty! Their seasoning has a kick, and makes the chicken extra scrumptious, and juicy. They put a lot of heart into their food and I've never had a bad experience. Prices are reasonable for jerk :) My boyfriend has gotten jerk chicken by the pound before and it was the bomb. Thank you for being on delivery apps during this difficult COVID-19 period. read more

Delicious food-wings, jerk and oxtail. Ubereats. Repeat customer. I've been ordering from here for sometime.

Allwyn's is definitely my go-to for lunch when I'm craving Jamaican or Caribbean food. Food: the meat is so delicious and moist. The jerk chicken is boneless dark meat; super tender and juicy. BUT the jerk pork has definitely been a show stopper for me. It's so hard to find pork cooked perfectly and Allwyn's does it every time. The small meals are around $8.75 with tax and come with rice and cole slaw. I usually ask for less rice and more slaw since I love mixing the two together. Other favourites include JERK WINGS but these are now sold from Thursday-Sunday I believe. Service: fast service especially during the lunch hour rush. There is seating in the area if you want to seat and eat but it is communal seating shared with the other establishments. Photos taken by @CheatEatsTO, our Instagram account read more

The stuffed sandwich was great, definitely a highlight! I asked the coleslaw to be separated from the sandwich because it will make the bread soggy, it was in a small container when the order arrived. Other than that we also got jerk chicken with rice and coleslaw. Chicken was super tender, but the coleslaw is not as flavorful as I liked. Also go the green pepper sauce which I heard was a staple. It was super spicy haha (I can tolerate medium level of spicy) so use small amount. read more

I was in this food court to sample something else, actually, but they were closed so I figured I'd grab a beef patty to tide myself over. I walked up to the cash, asked for a beef patty, and was in return asked if I wanted regular or spicy. I said spicy, of course, because I'm not a monster. Anyway, I was handed my patty a few second later and I was off to the races. It's...fine. The biggest problem here is the dough, which is super soggy and kind of stale tasting. I have no idea if I received a patty that was a few days old, but it wasn't even hot all the way through. I've had beef patties from subway vendors that were better and more consistent than this. At least the filling was okay. It was definitely spicier than the norm and it contained a few bigger pieces of beef, which was a refreshing change of pace from the meat slurry that's often contained in these things. read more

A really great, no frills joint, that specializes in not very traditional, and not very spicy, BONELESS jerk chicken, and jerk pork sandwiches. Their "stuffed sandwich" which is truly he Jamaican version of a "turducken", with chicken - stuffed inside a spicy beef patty - stuffed inside Coco bread - with some coleslaw on top, for crunch and flavor, is a real treat. It's takeout only, and Bare Bones, and $9.95 for that tiny order of oxtail the size of a Big Mac container is a bit over-the-top, but the spicy beef patties are great, I love the boneless jerk chicken, and that sandwich is a real treat! read more

Allwyn's Bakery - Jerk Chicken Meal with Coleslaw - Caribbean Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Came here for lunch on a work day. My friends and I got jerk chicken and we are now frequent customers. Chicken is moist and it has just the right amount of spice to blend well with the rice and peas. Coleslaw was perfect to cool off my tongue as I inhaled the spicy rice. If you don't like coleslaw, you can get plantains instead. Patty + coco bread was alright. I think I'll just get the patty next time if I wanted a snack. read more

This second location of Allwyn's can be found within the food court of the Emerald Park condo building. The original location is widely considered to be one of the best Caribbean restaurants in Toronto. Hence, I was excited to finally try their food at this newest outpost. I tried their "Stuffed" sandwich that consisted of jerk chicken and coleslaw stuffed inside of a beef patty, which was then stuffed into one of their Coco bread buns. This sandwich tasted amazing and had great flavor and texture to it. The highlight of the sandwich was actually the Coco bread, as it was soft and provided a sweet contrast to the spiciness of the jerk chicken and patty. A highly recommended item to try! I also tried their jerk chicken and rice option, which I would describe as being a fairly standard dish for Caribbean food. Allwyn's jerk chicken is famous for being boneless, which makes their version of the dish less messy to eat than usual. The jerk chicken was good but not the best I have eaten, however. I thought that it tasted mostly spicy with some decent jerk flavour in it. Overall, a good Caribbean joint for takeout and a quick snack. Definitely try their sandwiches if you can! =) read more

Definitely not the best Jerk Chicken I've had. It's just mediocre. Ordered twice here so far, and chicken is so dry and not enough sauce.
