I have spotted Caribana way before I had my first experience eating on this place, of course.
It was there on Holloway Circus, in the Queensway, surrounded by other interesting shops, until the day I was looking for a quick bite before attending a gig in the area and I gave it a try.
To be honest I was expecting a menu replete of very spiced ( which is always good), rich and heavy food but I was quite surprised that they have really healthy and light options as well.
Obviously, some singular taste of caribbean such as Curried goat can also be found in their menu, but I really think it would be not a good idea before a night out!
As this place is open almost ( if not) 24 hours on weekends, it's really is a good option at the city centre. I just tried one of their wraps to go, but I have to confess that their fish, rice and peas with beans sounds delicious. It reminds me Brazilian food in a way, so I probably will have to give it another try soon....with gig or not.
Caribana's menu is vast and If you think about having lunch there I would recommend save your appetite to make most of it, trying a typical Caribbean cooking! read more
