Caribbean soul food, rum and cocktails

Turtle Bay Liverpool, in the historic Produce Exchange building on Victoria Street, brings Caribbean soul food, rum and cocktails to the city centre. It's known for a vibrant island atmosphere, a huge rum selection and a menu with options for meat-lovers, vegetarians and vegans. At its heart is the jerk pit, where ingredients are marinated for 24 hours then flame-grilled.

What to order

Try the jerk chicken, curry goat or a roti wrap with coconut rice, or plant-based dishes like vegan jerk chicken and chickpea curry. Finish with brownies or coconut ice cream and a rum cocktail.

Who it's for

A great choice for a lively night with friends, a bottomless brunch or a relaxed dinner with island vibes.

Atmosphere

The mood here is loud, warm and unmistakably tropical, carried by a reggae and dancehall soundtrack and walls splashed with island murals and tributes to Bob Marley. Neon rum signs glow above the bar, and the energy climbs steadily as the evening wears on.

By night it feels less like a restaurant than a party with a jerk pit — a colourful, come-as-you-are room where the rum keeps flowing and the music sets the pace.
