If you’ve ever been to the Caribbean and enjoyed Jerk Chicken fresh from the Grill, fried dumpling and a cold Red Stripe beer on the beach – or stopped a street corner stand for a spicy vegetable patty, ackee and saltfish and a rum punch – then you’ll know what Caribbean food is all about and won’t need a second invite to come to Marinades, Gloucestershire’s first and only West Indian family owned Caribbean Restaurant. If not, then come and let us show you what it’s all about as you experience the unique flavours and relaxed, friendly ambience of the Caribbean.

Caribbean cuisine is a delicious melting pot, drawing ingredients and methods from Europe, Africa, Asia and The Americas – combining them with the native foods and recipes of the Islands. Caribbean cookery absorbs these influences and creates a unique blend of cuisine developed over many years. Recipes and dishes will vary from island to island but what all have in common is the use of fresh herbs and spices. Seasoning and marinades are essential in bringing out the tropical and sunny flavours of the Caribbean which we really want you to enjoy and spread the word about!

We hope that you enjoy your meal with us and that you will recommend us to your family, friends and colleagues.
