Absolutely loved the place, we had a great night. Loved the music, food and atmosphere. Our server was very new and you could tell but it was absolutely fine and everyone has to start somewhere. Will definitely be returning.

Excellent service with a smile, great Gluten Free food choices and delicious drinks. Had hoped they accept Bluelight card though. Will definitely go back for happy hour!

Awful cocktails. Did not bring ketchup to the table and told us to get it ourselves . The staff hate the place themselves. Cocktails were awful. Had one sip and no refund on all 12 UNTOUCHED cocktails. Awful. Please do not go . Manager refused us in person. Food was awful. Please do not go.

When we arrived it wasn't clear if we should sit and wait for service or order from bar but after the confusion our food arrived it was very good and great value for money we had to ask for salt so it would have been nice to have these available if we wanted, staff are lovely very respectful I will go again.

We were a party of 3, and had pre-booked our table. Our waitress was helpful, polite and happy. The food was delicious and plentiful. We were sat under a flickering light which was annoying / distracting; but that aside all was good. The food was hot, plenty of meat in the chicken dish and delicious. We will return and we will recommend.

Hi we really loved our visit to Irie Shack. The food was lovely and the staff were very helpful. The decor was fab and the reggae music. Only complaint was it was absolutely boiling where we were sitting which prob doesn't happen very often! We really could have been in the Caribbean! We couldn't wait to get outside. In hind site we should have asked to be moved

The gourmet burger was disappointing for the price and the 2 for 1 cocktails overpriced I had a woo woo and they were so small not great value. Other than that good food lovely staff and relaxed atmosphere.

I would suggest they look at the wings or where they are sourced from. All else was great except these.

Loved the music, the food was nice but not authentic as I would have liked. The cocktails were really bad to be honest, pina colada was nothing like a pina colada, the strawberry daiquiri tasted nothing like strawberries and just like cheap alcohol, the mojito was not great either.

We ordered starters and mains but all came together. Food didn't come together (there were 4 of us) and one of the party was waiting a while. Food was lovely and good value for money. Enjoyed music but could have been just a little quieter as we couldn't hear ourselves talk.
Business Response:
We are glad you enjoyed the food. Unfortunately we dont do starters we only do main and side dishes reason why your food came all together. Please if the music is to loud where you seated please inform a member of staff and we can turn it down by you. thank you for you feedback and we hope to see you again soon :)

The waiting staff were very polite and friendly, however they didn't seem to know much about the menu and drinks on offer. My partner asked for a draught Red Stripe and they responded with 'what's draught?'. We also realised our favourite dish, hot chicken curry, wasn't on the menu, however the waiting staff explained it was on the takeaway menu so we could still order it. When I asked why it wasn't on the dine-in menu they said they didn't know... I don't expect the waiting staff to know everything but it seemed as if they didn't really know what was going on with the food and drink, which did effect our enjoyment of it! Caribbean food is all about love and passion, so the waiting staff need to be demonstrating this through their service.

Overall experience was great. Although the food quality has changes since I came last. The slaw was very bland. It was basic coleslaw with a bit of vinegar. I used to love the one you had before
