I ordered Rice and peas, jerk chicken, and beef patties as well as salad for 10 people. It was extremely affordable. To be honest, this type of cuisine is something that I don't order frequently so I wasn't sure what to expect. The rice and peas were cooked to perfection and the jerk chicken was probably some of the best jerk chicken I've had in a very long time. I expected it to be a bit dry but there was special sauce and on the phone they mentioned they marinate their meat for over 24 hours! It sure was nice to enjoy a beef patty where you could tell it was handmade versus the frozen ones that I've been feeding myself - haha! Highly recommend enjoying this spot!

It's a walk-in place only, the atmosphere isn't highly developed -- this gets me excited 'cause I know that means the food is good enough to speak for itself. I can't speak for all the menu items here, but everything I've tried has been delicious! (my favourite being the goat curry roti) In addition, they're open 'til 3am on bar nights and offer "doubles", a classic caribbean snack that's basically a chickpea-pastry sandwich, for only $1.50!

I've had the curry chicken roti three times now, and it has been consistently excellent every time--succulent, flavourful chicken in a rich curry sauce, wrapped in a satisfying roti. It is one of those meals you start craving again soon after you finish it. You can tell there is real care put into the food here. The flavours are comforting, authentic-tasting, and generously portioned. Dine-in or takeout. This is seriously good Caribbean food. If you are in Guelph and looking for a delicious Jamaican meal, especially a great curry chicken roti, give Di Patty Shop a try. I'll definitely be back for a fourth time.

After devouring my chicken roti here, I was like...oh crap. I forgot to take a picture! But…read moreeveryone knows what a roti looks like anyway. The stuff here doesn't really look that out of the ordinary presentation wise, but the roti was certainly one of the best I've ever had. I had a mini chicken roti which was a good size for lunch, but just based on how much I enjoyed it, I wish I opted for the full size. The flat bread itself was just the right texture and didn't taste all "steamed up" from sitting around all day. It came with a generous portion of chicken, which was intensely flavoured (spicy, but not "DYING HOT" spicy... just perfect!!); you also get some home-made hot sauce mixture (glad I decided to try some - it was a perfect complement to the roti). There's also some daily specials towards the end of the week like curry, jerk chicken etc...but I couldn't resist the roti after seeing the previous person before me get it. It just looked so juicy and appetizing, and I'm super glad I got it. I wish I had room to try the Jamaican patties as well. Their menu here is not very extensive, but seriously, get a roti, can't go wrong. :P On a side note: there isn't much seating here, just what are essentially two picnic tables! But most people seem to take their stuff "to go". :) If the river is nice, there's some outdoor seating close to the river, or you can just take it down to the river and enjoy the scenery!
